The “Valentags” are here!
January 16th, 2008
I probably shouldn’t be posting about these yet since I don’t quite have the packaging figured out but I’m anticipating a busy day tomorrow and I know I better put them up while I’m still suffering from insomnia. Actually I’m not suffering. I like being up at night. I’m probably just not going to like it very much tomorrow morning though. Heh.
So anyway, these are my valentags! They’re five bucks in my etsy shop. Flat rate shipping for everybody! Woo Hoo! There are twelve unique designs. I’m throwing in three sets of each so you get 36 cards in all. I’m not sure if I’m going to wrap them in pink tulle and a ribbon or translucent paper bands and a sticker like I did the holiday gift tags. Hopefully, I’ll have a minute tomorrow (while Baby Bug is watching her three hours of morning cartoons) and I’ll quickly take pictures and post them.
Or maybe I won’t. Because….
Tomorrow is BABY BUG’S pseudo birthday party! I’m going to make a green cake (or cupcakes, not sure which) and buy some green balloons. Just those two things alone should pack our day with fun. I’m actually not being sarcastic. Baby Bug has practically gone spastic every time we’ve seen balloons in the last few days. It’s going to be great. Especially since the best place to buy balloons around here is the TOY STORE!!! So maybe a toy might accidentally get bought along with the balloons.. it’s her birthday after all!
Then our two relatives will come over and we’ll have pizza and party like it’s 1999! Or until bath time. Nothing kills a party like bath time.

Happy Party Day, BB! Good luck with the cake, SAJ! :-)

BB’s shirt is adorable- and green!!

It all depends on how many peeps you have in the tub with ya.
heh
Have a great one!
SAJ says: Ha ha! Totally! Why didn’t I think of that?

I love that little shirt!!!
January 16th, 2008 at 5:51 am
Those are so cute! And balloons. Argh. Bane of my existance. Can’t even take Erik to the grocery store anymore b/c he just screams for a balloon the whole time. His first word was actually “boon” so it’s not like a new obsession.
Happy psuedo-birthday party! Have fun!

I got a bag of 5 of those punch balloons (you blow them up real big and they have a rubber band attached at one end and you can punch it after it’s blown up) from the dollar bin at Target to stick in Jack’s stocking and it’s the most played with item he got for Christmas .. and he got Star Wars Legos and video games.
A couple of days ago I caught him filling one of them with water. He wanted a really big water balloon.

Oh, I love them! By the way, I let my son take a cupcake in the bath the other day. I, um, don’t recommend it.

I love the tags!
Have fun tomorrow, Baby Bug! :)

Those Valentags are adorable! They make me wish I was still in 3rd grade and had a whole class to pass them out to!:) Wish Baby Bug a happy GREEN Birthday for me!:) Cute as a button, that one!

hope she has a great, green-filled birthday!
January 16th, 2008 at 7:54 am
Great shirt. Happy early birthday, BB!
January 16th, 2008 at 8:03 am
I ordered some tags – can’t wait!
Happy birthday, BB! May everyone be green with envy over your birthday party.
January 16th, 2008 at 8:15 am
They are lovely!
I have to ask a random question, where did Baby Bug’s shirt come from? I am jumping the gun here, as I’m not pregnant but OH MY GOSH our future kid has to have a “my dad is a geek” shirt.
SAJ says: I bought mine at a thrift store but I saw them yesterday at this local shop. I bet we could find them somewhere. In fact, I just did a google search for Urban Smalls (the brand) and “My Dad’s a Geek” and came up with a ton of hits!
January 16th, 2008 at 8:17 am
I need that shirt too, where did you find it?
January 16th, 2008 at 8:58 am
The cards are cute. Happy Birthday Baby Bug!
January 16th, 2008 at 9:11 am
Looks like she’ll have a great birthday! Balloons always make a great party.
I’m heading over to your etsy shop now! I’m a sucker for SAJ designs.

Happy Birthday BB! I’m going to order those tags for valentines for my boys to give out in their classrooms. They are so cute and original.
January 16th, 2008 at 9:20 am
Great job on the valentines! They are really cute!

I don’t want to throw water on your parade, but Uncle Dan says a great number of children are taken to the emergency room (too late) because they inhaled the balloon they were trying to inflate. Please be careful.
We’re looking forward to green enchiladas and green cake in the sticks Saturday Night.

Love the tags, love the shirt, love the green cake and balloons idea! Love it! haha! Happy Birthday Baby Bug!
January 16th, 2008 at 11:12 am
OMG! Love BB’s shirt. I need to find one of those:)
January 16th, 2008 at 11:27 am
happy early birthday BB and good luck with the tags!
they both are absolutely adorable!!!!!

Happy Party Day Baby Bug!!
January 16th, 2008 at 12:55 pm
Oh my Gawd, those are so cute. Maybe I’ll get some for the Girl to give out to her friends. 15 isn’t too old, is it?
January 16th, 2008 at 1:12 pm
I am all light headed here now, we just had a balloon morning.
And sadly, I am afraid my kids need a ‘my mom’s a geek shirt.’
Or maybe ‘my parent’s are geeks.’
Happy pseudo b-day BB!

Happy birthday to baby bug!! Maybe get her a green bath toy. We have a green dinosaur nail brush that floats that Isabelle LOVES to play with in the bath.
January 16th, 2008 at 5:34 pm
Happy early birthday BB! I hope you had some fun and enjoyed your green birthday dessert :).
Your tags are great! Very cute.
January 16th, 2008 at 7:54 pm
Oh! These are truly adorable!! I’ve bookmarked your etsy for a return tomorrow when my eyeballs aren’t ready to crash on me.. :)
January 16th, 2008 at 9:49 pm

January 16th, 2008 at 11:10 pm
So cute!
Happy early Birthday Baby Bug, hope your day is full of all things green!!!

January 18th, 2008 at 6:40 am
Where did you get the “My dad’s a geek” shirt.
I need one of those for my kids!
The cards are, as I’ve told you too many times now, FABULOUS.
January 18th, 2008 at 7:24 pm
I love your blog and I really like your Valentines. I was wondering if I could purchase some?
I am Anna Clark’s Auntie, you guys do a wonderful job of blogging.
Email me back and we can discuss maybe getting some tags.
Thanks

You need to make some Valentine’s for the tweens out there. Not mushy but funny. The still pass them out in fifth and sixth grade and there are no valentine’s out there for boys.
