baked apples for baby.

my martha stewart apple corer.
i knew it would come in handy one day.
bake in 2-3inches of water
@ 400 degrees
for 40 minutes.
peel
& place in food processor.
mix with fresh water
until desired consistency.
*this helps with babies getting use to chunkier food :)
it's a little chunkier than he is use to,
but he's adjusting! :)

one day i know i'll embarass him.
he won't want me to kiss&hug him in front of his friends.
he'll ask me not to wear my silly hats outside of the house.

today he's just happy to be with me.

control your own destiny - mental health day.

gold chain & tassel pendant @ helen's hassack

an update.

an overdue update.

i have the best intentions to write in santino's baby book.
intentions.
i have great intentions to conquer the world.
blogging is so much easier.
but i haven't even really blogged lately.

santino will be 24weeks in three days.
six months.

sitting up
& playing independently.
he's a few weeks away from crawling.
a tooth will be popping through any day now.
he's taken down all the earth's best level one foods.
size three diapers.
nine months clothes.
constant drool.

he's still waking up every 3-4 hours at night.
he's not on any type of sleep schedule.
but it works for us.
i'd rather him not be on a schedule
& be happy,
than be on a schedule
& be miserable.

yesterday was my grandmother's 83rd birthday celebration.
first we traveled up to TCNJ
& watched cousin shannon's seagull field hockey team kick butt!
then traveled to my aunt's for pizza, crab soup & cake.

my grandmother's birthday wish at 83?
to meet danny briere.
but after she gets a haircut..

the fall is birthday season.
all of my nephews & niece..
mother in law..
cousins..
etc.

& it's football season.
thank god for the hokies.
since philly has let me down all over the place.

let's go flyers?

work is busy,
but i'm enjoying it.
as much as i hate being away from santino
i come home just wanting to soak in every minute of him.
& i still feel like i get so much time with him.

today is mental health day.
what did you do to make your mind happy today?
i ate lunch outside
& enjoyed the last of the beautiful weather!

everyone is the age of their heart <3

vintage gold love.

these yellow floral studs are the perfect everyday earring.
i will be sad to see them sell.

this gold jingle necklace dresses up a white tee.
and is a great vintage piece.
