Our Valentines Day was wonderful! Josh had to work, so I spent the morning with Austin and then my parents came over that afternoon to babysit and I headed off to get a massage! Josh spoiled me rotten this year. Along with the massage, he also bought me a massive box full of all sorts of European chocolate and a Keurig machine to make teas and hot cocoa :). Quickest way to my heart!

After my relaxing massage, I headed over to the Mandalay Bay to check into the hotel. I was wanting so badly to get there early so I could take a bubble bath in the huge marble tub, but the stupid lady wouldn't let me check in without Josh since he was the one who booked everything so I had to sit in the casino for a while waiting for Josh to get off work.... grrrr. Of course that was the day he got asked to stay late and I ended up people watching for about 3 hours, but who's counting?
Once Josh showed up things went back to being perfect again. We walked around the casino checking out the different restaurants and finally settled on the buffet. It was perfect because I got my all you can eat sushi bar and Josh got his all you can eat meat and salmon bar. It was so nice and relaxing eating and talking about life without a little one demanding our attention. Don't worry Austin, I still missed you a lot and had to keep diverting my thoughts away from wondering what you were doing constantly.

The next day I woke up early (Austin has trained my brain to not believe in sleep anymore) and took my long awaited bubble bath! There was a TV in the bathroom so I watched the news while I soaked in the bubbles. Then Josh woke up and we decided to walk around the pools before check-out. Like a genius I had forgotten my swimsuit so we didn't get to jump in the hot tub like we had planned :(. We got Starbucks for breakfast and walked around the grounds for a couple hours. It was so beautiful and the weather was perfect!

Sadly, next came check-out and I had to head to work while Josh headed home to tend the Bubba man. We had the perfect get-away but were also super excited to see our baby! My Step-Dad decided to put the child proof locks on our kitchen cabinets for us while we were gone, which was a wonderful surprise to come home to! Thanks Mom and Nate for making this all possible! We love you!
