Handsome Baby Mateo Joel

Last week we met a new potential candidate for future boyfriend/husband for Shay.His name is Mateo Joel and he was born on April 17th weighing 7 lbs 11 oz and20 in tall. He is absolutely perfect and adorable. Shay made a new best friend too - Baby Audry, she and Shay liked holding hands it was so cute. Jaclyn, I am so happy for you and so glad we got to hang out and meet your sweet lil man. Love you!

Sweet Dreams...

Yay, Shay's nursery is finally finished! Took long enough she moved in 9 weeks ago...I've had so much fun adding little touches here and there, today we added her name above her crib. I love it! Last night she slept in her co-sleeper from 11:15 to 6 am! I couldn't believe it, so it's time she graduated to sleeping in her own room in her glorious crib that Great Granny Janny gave her. She's definitely ready, but not so sure Mommy is....=(

Don't you love the hair, bald on one side and straight up as usual hahaha!

Eliana Jewelry Designs

Shay received her first peice of jewelry, she's getting a head start on her collection! My Gramma Elaine, or I like to call her Gramma Lainie is a jewelry designer for fun among many other things. She designed my wedding jewelry from fresh water pearls and Swarovski crystals, it was absolutely gorgeous and I loved wearing something handmade with love from her. Well just the other day a package arrived and inside was a gift for Shay and I from Grampa Jerry and Gramma Lainie. I couldn't believe my eyes when I opened the boxes, each with a beautiful matching pearl and crystal necklace! Someday soon Shay and I will be able to wear them to a special event and show them off. Thank you so much for taking the time to make these beautiful necklaces, we love them! If anyone is interested in a piece of handmade jewelry by "Eliana Originals" let me know!

Another Mo Nephew!

Wow, my third adorable nephew was born 1 month after Shay arrived. Noah Asher was born on 3/24 weighing 6.5 lbs and was 19 in tall. He's just a pip-squeak but very alert and awake for a newborn. He looks around with his big almond shaped eyes and lets out an enormous yelp, too big for his body, when he's ready to eat...he's a man already. Of course, he is just as gorgeous as his older brothers and he resembles Isaac at birth to the T. My Sis is the "Martha Stewart" of Motherhood, I'm not exaggerating. She so effortlessly breastfeeds her newborn while Isaac and Lucas climb on top of her to get a peek and kiss their new brother. Thankfully E is off work for awhile to help out, she's going to have a daunting task when he has to go back but if anyone can do it she can. This is such a special time in my life, to have my baby girl at the same time as Ash has her Noah is priceless. She has helped me so much, taught me everything, and gave me the confidence to know I can be a great Mommy. My only wish is that my kids will turn out as well behaved, smart, talented and as gorgeous as hers. Congrats Ash, I love you, you're the BEST.
