Happy Valentines Day!!!

The newest member of our family has finally arrived! After reading my cousin's blogs about her "servant", I got so green with envy that we finally had to get one too. I told my kids that we were getting a pet robot...kinda mean since they really want a dog...anyway... Her name is Bernie and we all love her. She was the perfect Valentines Day gift. My kids did have to learn that "Bernie Herding" is a no no, and I am not sure that I am really saving time cleaning because I am just so enthralled that I tend to sit and watch my little Roomba do her thing. She is the best pet ever!!
Eli kept saying, "Don't eat me!" Ava (my nurturer) kept asking, "Bernie, awww, are you tired? Do you want to go to your home?"
Just in case you thought your weather was bad...this is around noon...and it only got worse! Pea soup anyone?
My friend Kate kept the kids overnight so that we could go on a real date. We had all of these plans about drinking Champagne and watching a movie, maybe playing a game....we made it to about 930 before we were both asleep on the couch. It was the perfect Valentines day date for two tired parents!
