Love, Baby Ever After

Hi, Friends- Baby here! Pleased to know you! So nice to make your acquaintance! I know we haven't been formally introduced, but I'm only 7 months old, so I've just learned to write. Mommy tells me the best things about you. I have a feeling she's told you a little bit about me, too. I just got back from my very first ...

and giving thanks

Today, I will be watching the first snowflakes fall, baking brownies, staying in PJs, having dance parties to holiday tunes, kissing my baby's little nose, kissing my baby's little toes, lingering over my blueberry bagel with butter, sharing laughter with treasured family members, watching the parades, remembering this day last year, telling the people in my life how much they mean to me, crawling around with my ...

Is this place BYOB?

Would it be weird if I had my daughter bring her own Princess Band-Aid to the doctor today for when she gets her flu shot booster? Or weird in the good, I'm on a totally different fashion plane than you, and I don't care that you don't get me because I'm a budding style icon kind of way?

The Princess and the Jog

  "I may have just filled her sippy cup up with water for me to take on our walk. What? I can't find my Nalgene." -that would be my husband, on his way out the door for his Saturday daddy/daughter walk. I mean, I could tease him, but it isn't the worst idea in the world. Plus, her magenta ...

Proud

"That was a good blog today." -My Poppop, when he called to wish his honey a happy 7 month birthday. I'm so so proud to have him as my biggest fan. And as my Poppop.  

The Magnificent 7

Dearest baby, My sweetness; My light. Today you are 7 months old. A magnificent seven. When I was 7 days pregnant with you, you were just a wish. When I was 7 weeks pregnant with you, we danced on-stage at Hair together, at your very first Broadway show. We celebrated love and tolerance and sunshine and peace, and I loved ...
