Valentine's Day Recap

Pretty much you have to assume all posts are going to be about pregnancy or food for the next few weeks. For example, we made these easy and delicious "Molten Chocolate Surprise" desserts (recipe on the sidebar) as a special Valentine's day treat to go with our fondue dinner. We thought it would be fun for the kids, they never appreciate our ideas like they should :)

We are on doctor-ordered "chill-out" mode so I just sat yesterday making Valentine's with the kids. I think we spent 3 hours at the table, and neither of them muttered once. I am coming to realize how far their attention will span when I am just sitting and spending time with them.

We had a bonus ultrasound this week where it was estimated the baby is already 6 pounds. We hope it was a gross overestimation since we still have 6 weeks to go. They say the baby is comparable in size to a crenshaw melon... a couple weeks ago they compared the baby to a jicama as if I can really relate (?) babycenter.com is obviously put together by a bunch of pregnant women who can only think about food... the nerve!

It sounds like you are using your "down time" wisely and having fun with the kids. This is a great looking recipe- I am going to try it! Glad you are doing well.
