Happy Valentine's Day!

I've been with my boyfriend for a bit more than 10 years now and we have never really been the type of person to celebrate Valentine's Day...I guess that now that we are parents, we will unconsciously celebrate it a bit more, making crafts & sweets for friends & loved ones!

This year, Valentine's Day took on an whole new meaning... I had my 1st ultrasound & it was a real blessing to witness this little peanut in action! Tonight, I'll be going to sleep happier than ever! :)

Tiny hands...Precious!

How was your Valentine's Day?

Have a great night you guys!
Keep in touch!

The reason why...

Yep people!
We have a bun in the oven! :)

This tiny little human growing in my belly is the reason why I haven't really been around these last few weeks...It's also the reason why I've been so extremely tired lately & developped a real addiction for naps...the reason why my sewing machine has been collecting dust...the reason why my Etsy shops have been slightly put on hold (there's not much stock left & I've been simply too busy sleeping whenever I could, I didn't take time to make more listings!)...the reason why I have sugar cravings at night...the reason why I've been drinking chocolate milk instead of coffee ( I know I'm allowed to have a cup of coffee per day...I had even bought some decaf but somehow, with this pregnancy, coffee is a real turn off! )

Hopefully, in a few weeks, the extreme tiredness from the 1st trimester will be long gone & my energy level will be back to normal! One thing's for sure, this new adventure will most probably get my creative juices flowing like crazy! ;)
2013 is going to be an AMAZING year!
Cheers everyone!

Keep in touch!

Christmas...a year ago!

With Christmas just around the corner, I thought it would be fun to go back in time just a little...
I still can't believe how much my little munchkin has grown up in a year...it's breathtaking!
Yesterday, my boyfriend & I were looking at some pictures of last Christmas & we were blown away...see what I mean below...

"Who are you?" 1st time meeting Santa!

My chubby lil' chicken with my good friend Christine "the elf"! :)

Trying on her godmother's gift

Discovering a new toy

Surrounded by cushions because she was barely sitting by herself

So freakin' tired!

Looking so tiny in her 1st sleigh!

Testing out her new ride! Cozy!!!

Nothing better than a little outdoor nap!

Our 2011 Christmas card sent out to family & friends!

I have to go back to my extensive to-do list (sewing/ cooking/ cleaning...and potty training!!!!) but I'll try to be back in a few days to share some 2012 Holidays pictures!


Wishing you all a Merry Christmas with your loved ones!
Talk to you soon!n

Letter to Livia #1

"My sweet little Livia,

About 2 years ago, I felt you moving for the 1st time in my ever-growing belly! Since that day, this special bond between us just kept growing & growing!

I have to tell you how proud I am to be your mama! Each day, you amaze with your constant learning, you make me laugh with your cute little face, you make my heart warm & fuzzy with your kisses & hugs! Being a mom is not always easy, it requires patience (a great deal of patience sometimes!) & strenght, but I can assure that being your mom is the greatest experience of all.

Thank you for being my little sunshine,
Thank you for making me a better person (at least I hope so!!! ;) )
But most of all, thank you for reminding me each & every day that, in the end, love is what matters most!

Love you, big time!"

I'm truly hoping that this little letter to Livia will be one of many so that one day, she can read what I would have liked to tell her when she was simply to little to understand everything she means to me!

Have a lovely day you guys!
