{ new kind of romance }

we all know what being sick and taking care of kids at the same time is like.  it's no fun whatsoever.  that was my last week.  i got nothing done because all i felt like doing was crawling in bed and sleeping, which was prevented by a monster with 8 teeth that squeals at an alarming tone.  (may i add though that she's so sweet at the same time?)  nothing got accomplished.  no cleaning.  no laundry.  simply nothing.

grandparents to the rescue.  my parents came to visit saturday and decided it would be best to take karsyn home with them for a few days in order for me to get more rest and to get some things done that tend to stress me out.  (a.k.a. cleaning)  off they went. 

to celebrate being without child and to get a jumpstart on valentine's day, we had a date.  we did what any couple who normally has a child at home would do when said child goes to grandmas ... we ate pizza and played xbox till 11pm.  it was the most romantic evening of my life.  {said in most sarcastic voice of all}  he could have at least lit some candles.

i must add, however, that it was a blast.  we laughed.  we competed.  he learned even more how much i hate to lose.  it was time well spent ... together.
