All You Need is LOve














Happy Valentine's Day!


My little Valentine muse wasn't so amused during her photo shoot...but she perked up a bit when I mentioned candy.


So it was a little anti-climatic having V-day on a Thursday...but all faired well in our household. I got pretty roses and a truly sweet card.


Nathan got a handmade card and a store bought Valentine-esy cake (I got in big trouble for throwing out Sienna's leftover birthday cake so this was my peace offering).

Sienna had two preschool parties and has been hopped up on sugar for days. She loved exchanging Valentine cards with her friends at school. And the day prior to Valentine's Day, and the day after, she gave "pretend" cards- where she'd hand you a random piece of paper or toy and say "HappyValentine's Day!"

And of course, my gorgeous boy is constantly showered with more than his fair share of hugs and kisses....and pinches......and squeeze the fat -on- the-thigh- couldn't- you- just -die kind of love.


Valentine's week also brought a somewhat unexpected addition to our family............no not that kind.....this one is much furrier in nature, will never weigh more than 5 lbs, and has the sublime benefit of never talking back. We got a puppy!! She is 3 mos. old and we just got her tonight. She's sleeping but we'll post pics soon. Her tenative name is Bella. She is a Pomerainian & Chiwawa mix (sp?). She has dark chocolate fur, and has for the moment, blue eyes.







P.S. made with love for my friend Joy, who lovingly reminded me my blog had not been updated for weeks!
