Purcell Family: Carter's First Valentine's Day!!

Today marks Carter's first Valentine's day! Of course, I had to purchase shirts for both of the boys from Old Navy. Carter's says "my first valentine's day" and Nolan's says "heart throb." Since I bought the shirts for the boys to wear, I had to take pictures of them in their shirts. I wanted to take pictures first thing in the morning, because Carter usually poops through his onesies at Stacy's and Nolan's food never seems to find his mouth when he eats. Nolan wanted nothing to do with pictures this morning. At least Carter was in a great mood!

Stacy had goodies for the boys when we arrived at her house this morning. The kiddos were in full swing for Valentine's Day!

I arrived home at the same time as all of my boys after work today, which was such a great feeling. Usually, I'm not home until about an hour after they have been at home. While Nolan was showing me all of his valentine's he received at the sitters, Bill said he needed to run out to the car real quick. He came back into the house with my favorite flowers, Tiger Lilies, a large box of chocolates, and a card! My boys spoil me way too much. Bill and I didn't discuss gifts this year, but I figured we needed to save as much money as possible since we are moving. I felt so loved when he rounded the corner with the gifts in his arms. This is why I love my husband so much, he never forgets the little things in life! I love you boo and I hope our boys grow up to be exactly like you!

However, Nolan is exactly like me in one aspect, which is he LOVES chocolate. He was tearing the wrapping off of the box and saying "I want mommy's chocolate" before I was able to read the card. I let him have one piece before dinner. This put a huge smile on his face.

We finished dinner and hung out at home laying around. Nolan and Carter had a sweet moment I was able to capture on camera. Carter was sitting in his Bumbo and Nolan brought the iPad down next to Carter to show him how to play a game. Nolan grabbed Carter's hand and held it for awhile. This melted my heart!
