I am looking for something romantic to do for DH on valentines day. We have been very short with one another and not very lovey dovey but I want him to know that I do love and appreciate him (its what the holiday is about). It doesn't have to be something for the actual valentines day, but it does need to be cheap.

Obviously I would like to get a card and write him a sweet note. Maybe in the days leading up I could leave him notes and cards?

We probably wont be able to get a sitter for DD, but could another night. If we had a chance for a date night it would need to be something cheap and fun (not just dinner/movie).

Any suggestions? What do you do to tell your SO that you love and appreciate them?
