A Dream Come True

October 15, 2010 by Elaine

I had a dream of her… Her hair was blonde and fine and softer than silk. Her eyes were crystal blue, like little oceans. Her lips were small and perfectly shaped. Her cheeks, round and full and oh so kissable. After the dream, I waited for her. I wasn’t sure if it was real. I…

There she was. (A Birthday Post)

October 1, 2010 by Elaine

When I found out I was pregnant in January of 2009 it was a surprise. A really BIG surprise. Tim and I were actually a little shell-shocked for a few days. We would just look at each every few minutes like deer, caught in head lights. It’s not that I didn’t want another baby, I…

Blogging Lite

July 13, 2010 by Elaine

S.I.X.

April 2, 2010 by Elaine

SIX years ago today I became a mother and my life was forever changed. Today my “Benja” is smart, sensitive, funny and quite the artist. He loves his brother and baby sister so very much and likes to “fuzz” Baby K’s hair and even Little G’s still sometimes too! He can be a tad bossy…

My 6 Month Sweetie

April 1, 2010 by Elaine

To my Katie-Boo, Tweety Bird, Sweet Sweet- This morning your Daddy brought you to me in bed. As we laid next to each other, face to face, you “talking” to me, I studied your baby face. I kissed your sweet button nose and stared into your sweetest of sweet blue eyes. I lightly touched your…

WW – Proof that My Husband REALLY Loves Me & He’s Not Just Acting Like It

February 10, 2010 by Elaine

This is what my hair looked liked yesterday morning when my husband kissed me “Good Bye.” He didn’t say a word and I didn’t notice it until after a sideways glance at myself in the mirror in our half bath, an hour or so after his departure. I have NO idea how he was able…

I Still Got It

February 2, 2010 by Elaine

I actually ordered some prints of the baby’s earliest days a couple of weeks ago and Sunday night I actually sat down at my desk and did a little bit of scrapping. It felt good. Especially putting pictures in the book that my friends pre-made for me – I felt extremely accomplished with that! HA!…

Just Cuz

January 30, 2010 by Elaine

Sometimes I start to tear up when I see her face. Like right now. I just had to post this picture because I love it and HER so much. P.S. Larger picture is thanks to One Crafty Mama and her tip on how to change the size. Thank You So much Michelle! : )
