Remember this picture from almost a year ago?

Crazy how this silly little mistake of overbooking the church house the day of our reception predicted one of the most amazing moments in our lives.
Valentine's day this year topped the rest... by a long shot.
Yesterday, Kevin and I were able to go to Dr. J's office and the lovely ultrasound tech, Lindsey, gave us the most incredible news.
It's a BOY!
We also discovered that our son is quiet stubborn. During the whole ultrasound he was head down in my bladder. Lindsey tried to get him to move around but all he did was kick his legs a little. No cute profile ultrasound photo but it was so amazing to see that he finally looks like a little person.
I go back in two weeks for my twenty week ultrasound, where he will be measured to make sure everything is growing properly and I cannot wait to see him again! I am already so completely in love with my little boy.
Kevin took me to an early dinner at La Jolla Groves in Provo. It was amazing to enjoy an evening out together and since we went right after the doctors appointment we missed the crazy Valentines Day crowds. I think we both sat there the majority of the time repeating out loud over and over, "we are having a son!"

Dinner was so yummy (except I was sick today possibly from the food) and I really enjoyed trying something new.
We went to Babies R Us on the way home and picked up two little wall hangings for the nursery. I have decided a Noah's ark theme is what I would like to do for the nursery, so the two wall hangings of an adorable giraffe and elephants were perfect!
Kevin and I kept gifts simple and sweet this year.
Kevin spoiled me with a mini shopping spree at JoAnn's to get paper, glue, and lots of other goodies I needed to use my Cricut that my parents got me for my birthday. Luckily for him I used my new tools and Cricut to make Kevin a little flip book of the ABC's of my love for him. It was fun to give him something homemade and personal. He thought it was pretty cool. I also had a lovely surprise waiting for me at work Tuesday morning.

I cannot think of anything that could have made this Valentine's Day better. Got to spend it with my TWO favorite men and it was just perfect.
What did you do for the lovers holiday readers?
Oh, and how cute are our little neighbors? Josie and Landon decorated our door with lots of hearts about the baby's gender. A great surprise when we got home.
They even helped us take this picture to remember the day.
Hope everyone had a wonderful day and spoiled their loved ones <3
