Beach Blanket Bingo

So, we went to the beach this am. Love that place. Love, love, love. From 10:30-1pm....had lunch there too and the little man fell asleep for his nap on the way home...he's still sleeping...quiet time...three cheers for me! For some reason Hunter has been getting up EVERY night for the past three weeks at midnight and 3pm and I end up taking him out of his crib and he falls asleep next to me instantly. It's great that he falls asleep so quickly when he's next to me but he keeps ME up! He rolls all over me which makes it hard to go back to sleep. I'm starting to feel like I'm running on empty. I have the worst time letting him cry which means this nightime thing may be my own fault. Oh well, I'm sure it will figure itself out. On another note we are headed to Vermont on Thursday to visit family. I never look forward to the car ride with an 18 month old but I'm sure it will be a lot of fun once we get there. We will be with family thurs. and Fri and then we have a wedding to attend on Saturday. My inlaws are watching Hunter for the night so it will be a nice treat to hang with the husband solo:) Vermont here we come! (Hunter please start sleeping for Mama.)

CT

So the Mr. and I are planning on looking at places in Darien, CT...anyone have any thoughts on the area or surrounding area? I know zip about CT.

Is it really July 30th???

W O W......time flies. This has been such a busy summer so far I'm not sure where it's gone. I've felt so out of the loop lately because I haven't been online for quite some time...for a few reasons...but I'm back. For good. For real. Things have been a little hectic around here. After our sad news last month we got some exciting news (funny how life does that)...my better half got a big promotion and we are moving to CT (he will commute to NYC). It's pretty exciting even though we are in the middle of a massive revovation on our home here in MA and we love where we live. Luckily, my husbands company is being flexible and we don't have to move until Jan. 1. Yea...holidays will be here close to family!!! Looks like my other half will have an apt. in NYC starting in Sept....it will be tough having him in NYC a lot but I'm so excitied to take the little guy with me on trips to see him in the big apple. There's so much to do there it's ridiculous. And the shopping isn't bad either;) I also recently found out that I will be holding a trunk show in NY in September in which part of the proceeds will benefit The Ronald McDonald House...how great! And I'm in the process of lining up a trunk show late Nov. or early Dec. in this area. I mean why not make myself crazy busy...renovation, moving, trunk shows, travel and an 18 month old. It's good stuff. No complaints...I actually work better under pressure which means these coming months should be a breeze-wink, wink! Hope you fellow bloggers are having a wonderful summer...I'm glad to be back...and thank you for your kind emails recently, just lovely.

Been Away

I've been away in a few ways. First of all we were on the Cape for a little bit having a really great time. What a spot. And then I've mentally been away for a little bit...for those of you who knew I was pregnant I lost the baby at 11 weeks. It's been very tough...but I finally feel good and have been looking at the positive because that's really all you can do...we have a beautiful 18 month old boy who is our little miracle and the light of our lives. We are truly, truly blessed. My friend sent me this quote during our loss..."To bend like the reed in the wind, that is the real strength". So very true.

So, now that things are getting back to normal...expect my bloggin' to return to full force! Hope you are all having a great summer so far!!! Happy belated 4th of July!
