Ma Fille, Betty Jane

I find it fitting that I begin this blog with an introduction to my daughter due to the fact that she has opened up a whole new wonderful chapter into my life. Named after her Great-Grandmother, Betty Jane, she is currently 11 months old and THE light of my life. I know it's cliche and it's been said so many times before, but I never knew that I could love someone so much. Being one of those people who was kind of "Blah" whenever the baby conversation came about, I have turned 180 degrees. Everyday is truly amazing with her and it keeps getting better. I don't know how, but it does.

 

Betty Jane

Seriously, did you really think you were going to get away from this blog without seeing a picture of my sweetie pie?

The lucky girl is having two 1st Birthday parties. One in Los Angeles (Mommy is hosting) and one in Chicago (Grandma is hosting). So, as you can probably guess, I'm in the midst of birthday party hoopla. So far I've decided on a Sweet Monkey theme from a printable party package that I found on Etsy. By the way, if you haven't used Etsy as a resource for wonderful handmade items, I highly recommend it. Especially their items for babies and children. Cute, unique and AFFORDABLE!!! I purchased some artwork for Betty Jane's nursery and they were able to do the prints in the colors that I wanted. That's another thing... if you ask the seller nicely, many times you can get things that are custom made to your liking. Yay for that!

À votre santé!
