My Jogging Buddy

Since having Elle I could not wait for my doctor to give me my clearance to start working out again. Once he did, I realized that I wasn't exactly going back to the gym with an infant in my arms, so Sean got me a jogger....and I LOVE it! Elle and I jog around the Back Bay at least 3 times a week and enjoy the view, the sunshine and all of the birdies. To all you new mommies out there....I highly recommend getting a jogger. For me it is so great to be able to do the things I use to do pre-pregnancy..... now I just have a little buddy with me!

Two Peas in a Pod

Growing up I knew that my Dad was special and different than all the other dads....my dad always went above and beyond as far as being involved with his three girls. I knew that he was special and that not all dads were that way...so now having my own little girl and watching her with Sean, I couldnt be luckier. Sean is such an awesome dad...the way he cares for her, looks at her, talks to her and loves her, is nothing short of amazing! He is such a good daddy that sometimes I watch him and hope that I am that good at being a mom.

She never takes her eyes off of her daddy....Sean and Elle are like Peas and Carrots...they are truly two peas in a pod!!



Sean always picks her flowers...she loves them..and tries to eat them :)...




This is how I find them in the mornings...


Sean shows her that Binkys are cool....


Playtime with daddy....



I am one lucky girl!!!! <3

Elle and Kai

This weekend Elle and Kai got a chance to hang out. Elle was in awe with Kai and Kai was in awe with Elle's booties :)haha..... it was really cute to see them interact....I could have watched them for hours.

Two Months Old!!!

My First Valentine

So everyone knows that Sean and I were married last year in March in a completely unplanned ceremony at the "Little White Wedding Chapel" in Vegas. It was a wonderful, exciting, crazy weekend that has led to the most wonderful year of my life and the birth of our beautiful daughter.
Anyway, because it was completely unplanned none of our friends or family were with us as we took our vows. The only record of the day is of course our marriage license and one roll of film (old school 35mm style) that the photographer (Sammy Davis Jr. look alike) handed us as we left.
Our trip home that weekend was nuts...our flights were canceled due to bad weather on the East coast and we ended up renting a suburban and a driver to drive us home. Needless to say it was a long trip home. In all the shuffle we misplaced the roll of film and we have since moved twice and the film never surfaced so we thought the pictures were gone forever. Until last week........
I was cleaning out an old purse and I found the film. I knew exactly what it was when I found it...we just don’t have many 35mm rolls of film laying around. LOL!

So I had them developed, blown up and framed and gave them to Sean for Valentines. You should have seen his face! It was priceless!

Almost one year later we finally got to see our wedding pics....and we LOVE them. They are definitely one of a kind....


...Sunglasses on our heads :)

Happy Valentines Day honey!!! I love you more each day!

Happy Valentines Day!!!!

Our Sweet Valentine....we cant kiss her enough!!! XOXOXO

8 Weeks old

This week Elle turns 8 weeks old...I cant believe how fast time has gone. We went to her 2 month appointment this week and she got her shots. :( It was hard for me to watch but she was so good and only cried for a second. She has also become so animated. She is now smiling and laughing and so alert during the day. Each day that passes we fall more and more in love...being a mommy has been the most amazing experience, it becomes more and rewarding every day.

6 Weeks

Perfect little face...
