#554 - "Arrr Love You"

My cousin Lizzy sent this cute pirate valentine to my boys.  It is perfect for Oster because he runs around the house with his "ipod" (aka eye patch) on all day.

Happy Valentines Day!

#324 - Day late

Ok, these Valentines are a day and a dollar late, but thought I would send them (via my blog) anyway.

Dear Mom and Dad,
I hope we didn't stress you out too much while you were stuck with us. I love you!via

Dear Brian & Karli,
Glad you had fun at the Olympics...jealous that you got to see Wayne Gretzky. Here's some hockey soap, since you were stuck in the car for over 1,800 miles. Only 400 more miles and you could have made it here. Love you!

Dear Jordan, Rachael & Mae,
Happy V Day and Chinese New Year! Love you!

Dear Casi and Pedro,
Here's a map to make it seem like we live closer. Love you!

Dear Pepe,
I thought about making you this, but think this is nicer. I love you!

Dear Baby O,
Seriously, I let you get away with too much, but you are so darn cute! I love you!
And to everyone else, hope you had a Happy Valentine's Day!

#323 - Valentine's ideas

Just wanted to remember these cute Valentine's ideas for next year.

1...mini kisses . . . so fun and easy to make
2...love languages pillow
3...cute heart display
4...i should have made these heart pancakes this morning
5...pretty cupcakes
6...love this newborn heart hat

Tonight I'm making manicotti and banana cream pie (with some tweaks) for my 2 Valentines (Pepe and Baby O.)

#311 - red prada purse...pink wallet

And even more red & pink...I really love my red knock off prada purse I got on the streets of NYC 3 years ago. It's still in really great shape and I think I only paid $15 for 2 fake prada purses (the other is the same color but more of a handbag.)

Also, my pink wallet from Target is so handy to keep all my credit cards and coins (thanks Karli for picking it out for me.)

#310 - red & white in the shower

Some more red & white...in the shower...I got this shower gel/bubble bath for Christmas...it makes me hungry.

#309 - red, white & pink everywhere

Baby O was coloring the other day and I noticed the red, pink and white crayons. It made me excited for Valentines.

I then started noticing red, pink and white everywhere.

Eating $4/pound cherries, pink/white button cookies, red m&ms left over from Christmas, and strawberry mochi...yum!

watching Glee - "don't stop believing" - i only watched this b/c other people were blogging about it...my new favorite show...honest. (watch a couple of episodes for free on hulu, while they are still there)Baby O's red sweater, red pjs (on the ground), my pink shirt, red sweater and red shoes (from Casi). Notice anything?

Stay tuned...I have a couple more red, white and pink favorites.
