Valentines Day....i think of the color red, hearts, chocolate candies, roses, cupid, & my significant other!! Ever since I was young, my mom used to ALWAYS make me & my siblings our own little valentines gift bags with all kinds of goodies, candies, & a stuffed bear!!! I would take my little valentines cards for all my classmates with me to school, and hand them out one by one...and wait to get all mines from everyone else. It was so fun to have valentines in school....and as I got older, my mom stopped making our little gift bags for us, and I no longer took any valentines day cards with me to school anymore....but being in HIGH SCHOOL, who would want to hand out lil' v-day cards anyways, right?!? haha...
 
Nowdays, Valentines Day is honestly.....JUST ANOTHER DAY!!! Except for the fact that I now have children of my own, I try & carry on my mother's tradition and give each of my own kids their little Valentines gift so they feel special on Valentines day. My 9yr old gets her own cards ready for her class at school by writing everyone's names on them....and this year we are making MUDDY BUDDIES and putting them in little Valentines chinese take-out boxes...too cute!

~MOMMA'z BOY~

Soooooooo, I have 2 "men" in MY life....the first would be my one & only ETERNAL COMPANION!! And the second, ofcourse, would also be my one & only BABY BOY, Ma'atoe Aveau Moe! I can't believe how fast time has gone by...he is going to be 9months on the 17th of this month! He is literally a MOMMA'z boy...he looks like me, has my skin-tone, and he always wants his MA MA...but he has his daddy's temper!! Don't let his cute lil' innocent smile FOOL YOU!! hahaha...j/k! He is really, really, REALLY calm compared to our 3yr old when she was his age, OMG. But, that could be blamed, ofcourse, ON HER DADDY...he was always trying to "ROUGH" her up so she could be TOUGH...i think he roughed her up a lil' TOO MUCH, thanks babe! Anyways, I wanted to write this blog to kinda help me & my son to remember some of the milestones, since I've been sooooo bad with keeping up with the baby book thing! Soooooo, here it goes:
