Mixa reunion in Newport

tummy time

beach baby

If Alec had it his way we would be at the beach every weekend, well Alec has pretty much had it his way. Thank goodness for our R.E.I cabana tent, she naps like a champ while we play:)

(Pictures coming soon!)

Starting the morning off right

no stroller, no puppy, no time limit. Just my favorite trail, lulu lemon capri's, trusty running shoes, a good playlist, and the crisp fall weather. I feel free.

Im committed.

I have lots of catching up to do on this blog and I am going to need some encouragement:) Its taken me awhile to get the hang of things in my new life as a mom. Gwen is on a great schedule and sleeping through the night and I finally feel like im living a normal life again. So i have no more excuses:) One of my goals this year was to REGULARLY update my blog so its not such a chore every time.

This is my way of keeping our family journal and its important to me to have all these fun memories documented!

So I am committing to a blog post everyday for at least a week or until I am updated. Stay on me! and Stay tuned!

Grandmas and Quilting

Oh how this picture warms my heart, it has so much meaning behind it. Both of Gwen's incredibly talented Grandmothers put so much time and love into making her the PERFECT little bed. Isnt it to die for? Im obsessed.

Blessing Day

Alec gave such a sweet blessing to our Gwendolyn Rose. It was such a beautiful and special day!

last chance blogger..

strongly dislike blogger

For some reason nothing I do lately on blogger seems to turn out right! I think I may switch to word press because my pictures are turning out blurry.. the font gets all screwed up etc. It makes be not want to blog so I dont:(

i think ill try it out and see how i like it.

LOVING this!

The next few days when I looked at her I cried. The spirit of purity she brought with her into our home overwhelmed me. I've waited my whole life to be a MOM and it took us a very long time to get little Gwennie here. I just feel so grateful and humbled to be her mom. Nursing for 8 hrs a day, changing tons of diapers, no sleep, getting spit up all over etc. doesnt bother me at all, I consider it a privilege. When she cries to wake me up in the middle of the night I just get excited to hold her, bury my face into her neck, and kiss those big squishy cheeks:) Im SO happy she is finally here!
