Bruna!

Dear sweet Gabrielle, May you one day come to realize how lucky you are to have Bruna here in this world – to be your companion and take such great care of you. She has been here for so many of your first milestones. And I am so grateful for her presence and her friendship….

robin - she’s too cute for words!..and very sweet of you to compliment Bruna so well(I love her smile)…looks like from the pictures she’s loved spending every minute with your family

Kal - Jessica – SHE IS SO CUTE! She’s totally unfolding into such a sweet little girl. Beautiful brown eyes. (I think newborns are all folded up and it takes their features a bit to come to form). Adorable.

Liz - I’m dying. That last one of Gabrielle even made Henry say, “Oh, she’s so cute!”. Truly.

Sue - More precious photos of Gabrielle! With these photos, and your words, Gabrielle will have an amazing journal of her life that she will treasure when she is older. Thank you for sharing this with us!

Go Green.

Two ways I'm "green." 1. I buy vintage clothing. 2. I wear fun green nail polish. (Great to see the Chanel Jade get press. I've gotten many compliments wearing it.)

Mashed potato martini, anyone?

Liz - Yum. Except at first I thought that was a big glass of horseradhish and it was topped with crab. Jeffrey and I would both be pleased I think. Although everything on a potato is nice too. Good find Jess.

Jennifer - That is very clever. I’m going to have to try that. Thanks for posting that idea.

jessica - Hi Anne!
I found the magazine at Babies R Us. I believe it’s an offshoot of Pregnancy Magazine.
Here’s a link to where you can purchase the new edition http://www.booksamillion.com/product?mid=0000006826
And they have a Facebook fan page where you can ask them for more details about how to subscribe! http://www.facebook.com/pregnancymag
Happy Friday!
Jessica

Anne - Jessica,
I love stopping by your blog. You’ve always got such fun stuff posted. Oh, and the super cute pictures are a plus too. That daughter of yours is beautiful! ;)
This looks like so much fun!
Hey, where can one purchase this magazine? I’m thinking it would be a fun Christmas gift for my sister-in-law. I’ve tried looking online and I don’t really see much.
Let me know if you’ve got some suggestions.
Thanks so much,
Anne

robin - well I prefer a cosmo..but bacon cheddar sour cream and potato put in any container sounds good to me..actually a really cute idea! who would of thought?

Linda - ewwwwwwwwwww

jenn - Gabrielle is adorable! Love the pics!
