Hello Friends!

So this is my first blog. I am a wife, new mommy and home cook connoisseur. I love everything about all three of these things. This is my first Christmas being married and being a mom. However,  juggling all of these tasks has taken some getting used to..... We finally put our tree up last Thursday. Yes, we put one up this late. We actually didn't even have one, ours is courtesy of the our wonderful neighbors and to makes things even better after I decorated the entire thing I realized that there was a big gap up top that was missing lights all together. Instead of fixing this problem I left the gap and to be honest, I still love our tree! It is our first one as a family and lights missing and all - it is perfect. So being a mommy so far to this little man is an adventure. He is 7, almost 8 weeks old now and I am still learning everyday. I have realized that I can read every book, article and Iphone update in the universe and there is no possible way of knowing is all or being prepared for what is going on with our little man. Lane is his own species as I am sure most moms in the world feel.... He started smiling a couple weeks ago and I will honestly say that alone made every tear and uncertainty worth it. I am cherishing every second of his life. I actually cried when he grew out of his newborn clothes. Pathetic, I know.........I already hate how quickly he is growing up but can't wait for every step! As we begin the holidays and our brand new life as a family I am happy to share these moments and memories with all of you! Stay tuned for fun stories, great home recipes and much more!
