What are you doing for Valentine’s Day? Anything fun? We are going out on Wednesday night to avoid the crowds. I’m not sure where we are going. It’s a surprise. Hooray for sweet husbands! Hooray for baby-sitters!
Here are a few last minute lovey links.
How about downloading some adorable temporary tattoos?
Printable valentines can be found here. Whew!
Whip up some heart candy? How about marshmallows? Or, truffles?
Alright, I’m all out of Valentine’s Day suggestions. Let’s just talk about some cool things I found this week.
The most adorable top and bloomers for a wee little girl.
I will be using this list next month to eat dim sum in San Francisco.
Wow. Papercuts.
Kids grow so fast. Put your baby clothes shopping on autopilot.
A favorite new etsy store with the sweetest little things for babies.
What do you know? What a great application.
An amazing photographic website for anyone who ever wanted to fly.
These are amazon’s top picks for 2011 children’s picture books. Each one is a gem.

That wittlebee website is genius! What a smart business, I hope they do well. It takes so much planning to keep growing children clothed! Unfortunately we are well stocked with little girl clothes up to size 5–now it’s just a matter of keeping the right sizes in everyone’s drawers.
As always, a lovely list!
Happy Valentine’s Day.
Cheers,
Rosa
Great links! I saved the Wittlebee link as a gift idea and just HAD to repost that series of love letters in photographs! So sweet! I can only hope that my boyfriend and I will be as old, and happy, and in love as those couples some day!
Irene,
Happy Valentine’s Day!
I’m sure you and your boyfriend will be in love forever. What a sweet thought. I hope you share it with him!

I just love these lovely lists! Have a wonderful date with your sweet husband!
Hope you have a lovely late V Day outing tonight! I added your list of children’s books to my growing Evernote file on kiddo stuff. We’re expecting our first little one in August.
Shelley,
That is the BEST news ever. Congratulations! You made my day. I can’t wait to see your bump progress. How exciting! Will you find out the gender?
How wonderful!

I have been reading your blog for the last year. I love the recipies and pictures. I have to say though, that I am not a fan of the Lovely lists. We are such a consuming culture, I really don’t need more links of things to buy. Just a thought.
Hi Melissa,
Thanks so much for your comment. I really appreciate your feedback. The lists actually started when Maeve was young as a way for me to keep up with my favorite things in my reader and to share them with all of you. I also wasn’t able to post recipes as much for obvious reasons. Wee ones take so much care and time! I’m sure there might be others who feel the same way as you, but I’ve had an awful lot of positive feedback and many emails from readers looking for advice on what and where to buy things— especially for children. I will hope you continue to tune into the recipes!
Thanks!
Robin
