Happy Valentine's Day

After the week we just endured, we're especially happy that there's some "happy" in our "Happy Valentine's Day".


First it was a stomach bug (3 out of 4 Sauciers effected). Then came the pink eye (2 out of 4 Sauciers effected). And we capped off the week with a pulled muscle in Andy's back (1 Saucier effected, 4 Sauciers forced to suffer through it). Altogether, we made 3 trips to the doctor, 4 trips to the pharmacy, missed 6 days of work and 5 days of daycare, and spent many, MANY hours on the couch.

Considering all that, we decided to bust out some balloons and kick off our Valentine's Day early. On Saturday night, Gwen showed some love to her new favorite food: PICKLES.



On Sunday morning, the girls opened their Valentine presents from Mom and Dad. Then, for breakfast, Ariella cooked up heart-shaped pancakes drizzled with chocolate sauce and raspberries. It was a delicious treat for all of us -- even Gwen.
