Valentines Vibes


What would cold, snowy February be without the bright spot of Valentine's Day smack dab in the middle?
You may remember last year I couldn't resist posting some pics of my little 3-month son...
Well...he's grown a bit.
Cloth diaper still fits though...phew!
When I was growing up, my mother always made Valentine's Day special for us. Each year during February, our household rituals regularly consisted of decorating shoeboxes to store precious valentines, special parties to make and exchange valentines with friends, and lovely dinner settings complete with doilies, red dishes, pink milk, etc. I suppose she instilled in me a love of Valentines Day...while my husband loves to scornfully decry it as a "Hallmark Holiday", I love to get my red and pink on. 



In a great summer garage sale find, I swiped this lovely sign for the door
Another great addition was this cute gift that Grammy gave Will. 
Feel free to send this little guy some Valentines because he's got a special spot to store them!.

This year I fashioned a couple Valentine's buntings with some supplies I had around the house. Easy, free, and festive!

This one also doubles great as a photography prop!

C'mon folks, Valentine's hearts and babies...does it get any cuter?

I couldn't resist a little impromptu photo shoot


He was tolerant at first...and then quickly over the whole thing


Unhappy Baby

It was great though...with a couple props and a nice red tablecloth (thanks Annie!), I was able to turn this...

Happy Valentines Day, from this wily little Will
