V day n stuff ♥ ♥ ♥



YO MAN! YOU'RE IN MY VALENTINE SHOT!



RELAX! I'm JUST kidding.......



so it is the big V day.
i really am not that in to it.
i don't really practice V day.
i think it is more commercial than anything.
although the story behind it is pretty cool.


but for the heck of it, i decided to post in red & pink.


you dig that donchu?


[heheheheeeeee]



now i suppose IF i was dating someone and they were in to it - i could get in to it then - if i had to....but ONLY if i had to....but V day is def no biggy to me. i think people who care for people or have significant others, should practice V day all year round, not just one major day of the year, but that is just my personal 2 cents.


February to me, is more about Black History Month, and with my son shnookie doodles being mixed, i really would like for him to grow up KNOWING this part of his culture, in fact we have been playing this cool little "Famous African American Inventors" quiz at work and i thought i would implement it in my little bloggity blog here today.



HERE ARE YOUR CLUES:
(let's see HOW well you know your African American History)

1. This invention was created in response to a fussy customer, who is rumored to be one of the Vanderbilts.

2. The original name for the invention is named after the inventor's hometown.

3. The invention is sold all over the world in many different forms and flavors.

4. The inventor was a Native American/African American chef.

What is my name and what did I invent?



okay....so now let me see what ya got....heheheheeee!


now back to V day....i mean V day is always FUN for the kiddos, i mean in school i always loved V day (even more so than Halloween) i totally was dig n' the whole V day card thing for class, giving V day cards to my entire class and getting them back, and sometimes the cute boy would actually write something really COOL on my card or give me the card that had a special saying so that i knew i was his numero uno chica, oh yea, those V days rocked.

and the candy hearts????
lets face it - ADDICTING.....you can't eat just ONE.

i will absolutely enjoy helping my son do V day as he grows up, in fact we made V day cards for his daycare class & V day party (woooo hooooo!) that was kind of fun - he even got a few valentines back from a couple of little babes, Abby & Alexa, how ya like those apples? my son is a rock star already! ♥


[heheeheeheeee]


(although V day does give good reason and excuses for eating chocolate for breakfast. i just had a Reece's Peanut Butter Chocolate Heart with my oatmeal. how'd ya like THAT?)


[yummmmmmm]


but in honor of V day for those of you who do practice it, i have posted a poem of mine that is somewhat fitting at the end of the blog. please do ENJOY!




and don't get me wrong here, i do have a valentine....

this was my valentine last year. ♥




and THIS is my valentine THIS year.
(teeth and all) ♥
quite the handsome dude isn't he? (i sure think so)♥



i figured i'd be a little more nostalgic today and post a bunch of recent photos of my little love, shnookie doodles, just to update you on how really FABULOUS he actually is....


and to those who DO go all out and celebrate V day - GO CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!
(get flowered up, fill up on chocolate & wine, get naked & dance like no one is watching!)



(tee hee hee)





shnookie doodles got a big green valentine froggy from mommy for V day! :-)

this past Sunday, eating gold fish crackers (shnookie doodles turned 17 months) at the park....






playing with toys this past weekend. doncha just dig the curly mo-hawk hes got go n' on!
