We had a nice day. Actually, my day started yesterday. Eric surprised me at work with a very gorgeous bouquet of roses and then we had a date night. We found a sitter and went to Fogo de Chao and then went to see The Uninvited. Despite the annoying teenagers at the movie, it was a great night. (We have agreed to take a monthly date night, and I am very excited!)
This morning we exchanged cards and gifts. Aiden got a new pair of Lightning McQueen slippers (his first pair of slippers - he asked for a pair about a month ago.) Elly got a big stuffed frog. Eric suprised me with a very emotional gift. Inside my card was a lighting plan for our front yard and a business card. My present is professionally done front yard lighting to be installed this week. I was floored to say the least by his thoughtfulness and generosity.
About noon we made a on the fly decision to take the kids to the zoo. It was a bit chilly, but otherwise we had a great time. It was the first time Elly had ever been to the zoo. The last time we went to the zoo was when I was about 6 mos preggo with her.
