It's Happy "Balentime's" Day!!

"It's happy Balentime's Day!" this sweet boy said. Here he is with his true love, Fresh.
My Huddy Buddy
When I asked him to smile, this is what I got. And this was the best one out of all of them.
I've never laughed so hard when I showed him the pictures on the camera and he said
"Why am I mean?"

My Ollie Dolly.

I love his chubby little hand clasped together so tightly. He's always so full of joy and excitement!

Sweets for the sweet.

They don't look a thing alike, do they? (ha ha)

These are the Valentines the boys and I made to send Hudson's classmates and our friends and family members. I grew up making homemade Valentines with my mom and dad for as long as I can remember. Back then we used construction paper, paper doilies and rubber cement. Remember that stuff? No glue dots back then!

(can you picture me in the scrapbook store trying to keep these two little wild Indians under control while I punched out all these die cuts? They were beside themselves with excitement over their train "balemtimes" and spent most of the time chugging each train along each track I cut out)

We had a fun Valentine's dinner that night and had heart-shaped brownie sundaes for dessert...delish!

I love Valentine's because it's such a girly holiday. All the pink, all the glitter, all the heart-shaped everything--especially pink heart sugar cookies!! Oh, I love sweet hubby and my darling little boys so much!

Hailey, you are just the best mom. I love how you make things so special for your darling little boys. Making all those valentines had to be such a lot of work, but it is all worth it because they are so much cuter than the packaged ones. You need to be a party planner. You are so creative and you always go the extra mile. What a girl!
