bye bye u2. hello....

well the lemon stage has come and gone and Nugget has moved into the size of a naval orange. i have no song about an orange, bummer.

gifts from Portsmouth!

our awesome friends stephanie and melanie were spending the day in Portsmouth NH and found some really great presents for the baby. Nugget is very lucky to have such great aunties. we look forward to sporting the hat, the bib and the onesie - maybe even all on one day! so freaking adorable!!! melt my heart, we are going to have a child that fits/wears/needs all 3 of these great gifts!!!

Lemon

I pretty much sing this every morning into L's stomach w/ the same amount of annunciation & gusto as Bono in concert. Plus, this was my first concert ever.
According to the baby growth chart, Nugget is the size of a Lemon, so it's fitting & it makes L smile a lot.

First Present from Nana & Papa

Announcement Cupcakes

i baked chocolate cupcakes w/ chocolate ganache, topped them w/ a dollop of pink and blue buttercream frosting and some roasted sliced almonds. we brought them into work to announce we were starting a family.
