It’s a Friday, so neither of you would probably be going to work the next day, right?
Book a night (or even two nights) at a B&B or a nice resort somewhere close, preferably one with a good restaurant.
Tell her to pack an overnight bag, hop in the car after work Friday, go.
It’s over by Sunday, so she can’t hock it in a couple years; but it can be memorable and sweet and romantic and give you some different territory to explore on the weekend. Just be together and do something different.

That would be a great idea, but we have a 2 year old cookie cartel, and one on the way any time now.
I had a miniature clay replica of my wife’s bouquet made. It’s only about four inches or so across, and every flower is amazingly detailed. Went through a company in Oklahoma, Nana’s Clay Flowers. All they needed was a few pictures of it a a couple weeks. It went over extremely well.
Is she close with her family or has a loved one of hers passed away? If you can get a picture of her parents or any sentimental photo she likes, have it painted. A really nice painting can become a family heirloom.
Modification: Is there ANYONE (good friend, relative, grandparents) who can watch the nipper for one night? If you’ve got a 2-year-old, then I’m sure the wife would appreciate a night or even just an evening of several hours, where you can both get away and spend some together as a couple again.
