I really love Valentine’s Day! I remember being in college and cringing at the thought of it during my single days. Now I just want to make tons of handmade gifts and celebrate. I should correct myself…I WANT to make tons of handmade gifts but will be more likely to BUY them on Etsy because it is easier. Ha!
I’ve recently changed my homepage from RealSimple.com to MarthaStewart.com and she has so many creative Vday ideas. I love everything on that site. It’s like my cup of coffee (since I don’t drink coffee) before work. For Avery’s classmates, I found the perfect ideas for making our own little cards. I’m excited about doing it with her.
On another note, I’m shopping around for Avery’s gifts (Scott’s too but can’t be disclosed here) and I think I’m going to go with a pair of shoes. She grows out of them at an extraordinary rate and she absolutely loves them. She loves them more than me and I’m not kidding. I love shoes but she LOVES shoes. The problem is there are so many options. I need to stick with Tennis shoes because she has almost outgrown her Lacoste tennies that we picked up for her in Miami. Seems like just yesterday. These are my favorites:
These are my top choice for now. Puma’s $39.95 at Zappos.com
Nike Shox $32.80 at Zappos.com:
Definitely the Pumas. They are so cute and no need to keep tie them
CUTE shoes!
Eli has several little hand-me-down pairs from a friend who had two boys, but since we don’t really leave the house much, I haven’t put them on his chubby little feet yet!
