My boys are growing up… and one needs a shave.

When I first saw this valentine I cracked up laughing. I love a man in a stash, even a little man.

I thought I would have to bribe Jeremy to do it for his class but the boy was game- perfect! I did a mad dash for stashes and found 36 of them for $6 so it didn’t cost an arm and a leg.  Score!

This is his “smolder” face. You should see his kissy face, I’m saving it for his wedding slide show.  He actually wanted to use it until I reminded him that he had to give them to the boys in his class.  Then he wanted to use the picture that looked like he was a Mr. Bean special op out to kill.  I have some great outtakes! 

We made 32 and I laughed putting the stashes on each and every one.  I wanted to put them on the front but to save some $$ I printed them 2 to a 4x6” which made them the perfect size for valentines but a little small to put the stashes on the front.  Still a winner though.  I see these making a come back in a few years.  The kids had a blast with the left over stashes and I got some cute pictures.  Well worth it!

This is what I was up to until the wee hours Sunday night.  Finishing up 70 Valentines. Why I wait until the last minute I don’t know.   I have a procrastination problem.  Anyway, the girls wanted to do the maze valentines from How Does She?.  I made mine a bit differently but I used their idea.  It was so fun for my girls to pick their papers, count m&m’s, and clip strings for me.  Homemade valentines rock!

And this little guy with the baby doll lips, he is 3 months old today.  Seriously!  I just started grocery shopping again.  I guess I spend too much time memorizing every last inch of him that I forget to do everything else, but I’m okay with that.  It won’t be long before he can get out of my coochy coochy clutches so I have to take advantage of his lack of mobility while I can.  I just can’t put him down.  Really, I don’t put him down.  Would you?  Did you see those lips?  Maybe I should see if he can roll one of these days.  He’ll be the only 34 year old who’s mom still rocks him to sleep and wants to cry tears of joy just looking at him.  Actually he has 5 other siblings that have to deal with me too.  

And on that note have a fantastic Tuesday!
