{a special gift - Oct 23 2013}

we recieved a special delivery from one of Dales friends in the States the other day... Well, actually it was a gift for Presley from his friends mother... it was a sweet hand knitted blanket and bonnett <3 such a sweet gesture and it is so beautifully made, I couldn't NOT take photos of her in them :-)

Enjoy

p.s - I can't believe she is already 3 weeks old :-(

Cheers
Brandi

{welcome baby Presley}

As Some of you may know I was to have a scheduled Induction On October 1st - my 38-ish week mark ... well, on Monday Sept 30, my little babe tryed to have other plans, as the morning BEFORE my induction, my water broke... at first it was a breeze, i mean it!, i had VERY mild contractions however almost NOTHING was happening... so after all that I ended up getting induced anyways... I will spare you any *ehem* gory *ehem* details but i will say, once I started progressing it took LESS than one and a half hours to go from 2 cm dilated to holding baby in my arms <3 <3<3  (no time to get any drugs)
I was able to take some photos :-D inspite of just pushing out a baby :-P

Counting contractions and the arrival

WELCOME PRESLEY!

Bath Time

Bath Time

Home Time

Worth every oz of pain <3 <3 <3

{French Vanilla Iced Coffee - recipe}

So you made a pot of coffee and being a busy mom, you forgot ALL about it!... what a waist, right?.... NOPE ... freeze that cold coffee in ice cube trays!

leftover cold coffee (I made mind REALLY strong on purpose) - pour into ice cube trays and freeze

small glass (or big one, whatever you like)
3-5 coffee cubes
1 cup milk
1 Tbs French vanilla coffee creamer

**EXTRA TIP **
---you could use ANY creamer flavor you would like! (I bet the chocolate mint kind would be YUMMMY at Christmas time :-D)
---also, try putting this in a blender with a scoop of Vanilla Ice cream - YUM
