henry's first valentine's day.

This past Thursday was Henry's first Valentine's Day and we celebrated it the only way we know how -- with food, of course! We had heart-shaped pancakes, cupcakes, and our valentine's tradition: linguini with clam sauce (fresh pasta only -- dried pasta need not apply!) Hope your day was as sweet as ours!

he refused to let me take the wrapper off for him

yes, that is my ironing board in the background

technically fettuccini with clam sauce -- there was no fresh linguini in the store we (me and the kids) went to, and I was not about to take all of them to another store just for a sixteenth of an inch less on each ribbon of pasta! Mangia!

happy valentine's day!

a little bit of brotherly love for your day today. . .

have a lovely day! xoxoxo

happy valentine's day!

Wishing you a delicious day filled with love, hugs and little surprises!

in love with these valentines!

Andy's Valentine's Day party at preschool is tomorrow, and we just finished up his little valentines for the class. I think they are super cute! Don't think I'm crazy creative, since I saw the idea on Design Mom first. But I am so happy with our handmade version! I think they are pure perfection!

Here's the front:

And this is the back:

And here's the whole cute batch together!

Andy wrote his name on each of the cards (he traces the letters that I've already written) and was really excited to make a valentine for each of his classmates and his teachers!

Sending you love and hugs in advance of Valentine's Day!
