I find myself making mental lists of things/values I want to instill in my daughter. I need to write them down. My father really did a wonderful job of teaching my sisters and I values, and I hope to pass on those traits to V. The above quote is definitely something I hope V takes to heart. People these days can be so cruel; so caught up in their own lives that they don't pay attention to who & what's around them. I have noticed how people act a lot lately when I am out alone with V. It truly astonishes me the fact that there are people in the world who don't hold doors open for women with children. With a stroller. I have always been the type of person to hold a door open for anyone, with or with out a reason. I hope to raise a daughter who will open doors for everyone, just because.<br />
<br />
As this week goes on, hold a door open for someone and notice their reaction. I bet they didn't anticipate the random act of kindness.<br />
<br />
And watch out... it might make you feel good!<br />

<br />
My sweet little V had the most adorable giggles today while I was giving her a bath. She has giggled once or twice at random but this morning was different. Big gleeful giggles. Three separate times. I swear my heart almost burst. These moments, these precious actions that become routine as we grow older, are the highlights of my days now. How special, magical these giggles are.<br />

Seeing my daughter smile & laugh at me or with me is just so darn wonderful. I hope I never forget these precious moments in the beginning of her life.<br />

Having a baby really makes you appreciate the important things in life no matter how little or unimportant they may have seemed prebaby. For me everything seems to have new purpose. <br />

Jay and I have adjusted to this new life as a family as three, and while it is a daily learning experience I must say that we are tackling the new addition quite well.<br />

My to do is list is still long, yet I am almost to the point where I can do no more! Jay and I are crazy too; last week we out of the blue decided to put new hardwood flooring in the dining room, which of course meant we had to paint the dining room and kitchen. Oh, and might as well stain the cabinets too. !!! AHHH! What were we thinking! I had been spending weeks and months cleaning and organizing my nest only to destroy it in one afternoon! Now I confess, I haven't actually lifted a finger to paint or put in the flooring. Jay's been working around the clock to get this all done in one week. He still has a lot to finish before tomorrow night, his deadline. I can just imagine baby girl coming in the middle of this mess!</div><div><br /></div><div>I will post photos as soon as my house is back in order!</div><div><br /></div>iheartsimonehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08509029862108074225noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131582250297204921.post-63125660339403712992010-09-04T00:39:00.003-04:002010-09-05T19:29:30.953-04:00oh, september.It's September!!!! The last nine months of my life have been full of new discoveries and feelings, heartache, love, truth, honesty, and so much more. Not only has my body been growing and nurturing a new life, but I have also started to create a new life of my very own. This year has been so very different than last year. It has been full of positive discovery and growth. Every milestone, every moment has been a learning experience and a stepping stone in the right direction. It hasn't been smooth sailing this journey I am on, but it's been full of more ups than downs. I have come to realize that home is where your heart is, friends come and go, and true friends are few and far between. <div><br /></div><div>September makes me miss home so badly. Even more so this year, as I wish I was closer to my family. It would be so much easier to share this next chapter in our lives if we were in New England. </div><div><br /></div><div>I am overjoyed for this month, and every month after. Cooler air (hopefully), fall festivals, and most importantly all things bambino!! </div><div><br /></div>iheartsimonehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08509029862108074225noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131582250297204921.post-16176973095522953792010-08-26T20:06:00.000-04:002010-08-26T20:06:28.339-04:00Daughter, Loudon Wainwright III<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/lVam-fshUgw?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/lVam-fshUgw?fs=1&hl=en_US" width="425" height="344" allowscriptaccess="never" allowfullscreen="true" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed></object>iheartsimonehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08509029862108074225noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131582250297204921.post-19985560567165917472010-08-26T19:18:00.002-04:002010-08-26T19:21:10.757-04:00maternity series.Here is week 35, which was last week.

I want to be a good blogger! It's difficult because I am not very confident in posting! I simply do not know what I am doing. Alas, from this day forward I will do better. And what a way to start my fresh attempt at the blog world than being prompted by <a href="http://abeautifulmess.typepad.com/my_weblog/2010/08/4-simple-goals-before-2011.html#comments">Elsie's 4 simple goals!</a> <div><br /></div><div><br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/42568440@N07/4890909621/" title="4simple goals by i heart simone, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4079/4890909621_451cbd8570.jpg" width="386" height="500" alt="4simple goals" /></a><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Here are my 4 Simple Goals that I am going to work on for the rest of the year:</div><div><br /></div><div>1.<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"> Blog More!</span></b> I am going to start slowly, giving myself a minimum of three posts per week. This could be become difficult after the birth of my daughter, but I will do my best to get into a routine and start with at least 3 posts!! Hey, the more often I do it, the better I will get! </div><div><br /></div><div>2.<b> Take photographs of everything I create.</b> I make things almost everyday, what better way to document and share my creations than taking photos?? I used to be very good at this. I will do better. And hey, accomplishing this goal will make goal #1 even easier! </div><div><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/42568440@N07/3929594548/" title="Doing what I love to do. by i heart simone, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2568/3929594548_81541fef6c.jpg" width="334" height="500" alt="Doing what I love to do." /></a><br /><br /></div><div>3. <b>Document my sweet baby's life.</b> She's not even here yet and I have weeks of letters and photos for her to read when she is older. When she does arrive into this world I want to continue my documentation in fun and creative ways. I have a few ideas up my sleeve already; the hard part is going to make sure I make the time to do this sweet things. We both will appreciate the effort later on in life. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/42568440@N07/4891633494/" title="babyg by i heart simone, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4119/4891633494_63eaba9500.jpg" width="500" height="375" alt="babyg" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>4. <b>Embrace my inner crafter/seamstress.</b> Yes, I may do it full time at the moment with my <a href="http://www.facebook.com/sewvicious">brick & mortar shop</a>, but there is always room for improvement. I want to increase my <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/sewvicious">etsy</a> sales big time. I want to sell my craft at local art walks, and state wide craft fairs. I need to make these goals a priority! I need to focus on my individual products, make them the best they can be and promote myself like crazy! I really want to be a stay at home momma and this outlet would help me be able to do that!</div><div><br /></div><div>It is always a wonderful thing to have a list of goals for yourself. A nice way to keep things moving! I love the satisfaction I get when I cross off items on any one of my many lists, and trust me I have many!</div><div><br /></div><div>Signing off for now. But I will be back soon! </div><div><br /></div><div>xo,</div><div>Jillian</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /><div><br /></div><div><br /><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div></div></div>iheartsimonehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08509029862108074225noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131582250297204921.post-2997986155898302912009-12-09T10:47:00.003-05:002009-12-09T12:10:07.220-05:00Simone Photoshoot<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQ29Gch40CltoQRe5XXV29n75lXK9lyBH-Qi6n01AVhMhl8u6Y0_1uuWwfkZZNxM173Y8oNj7sUIK-LtpgAHX3fVKQfTPssyC3JQCR-TovE9Z1jcLXk6DgcLbc2flzsONmpHSKn37bzWA/s1600-h/DSC_2863_2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 209px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQ29Gch40CltoQRe5XXV29n75lXK9lyBH-Qi6n01AVhMhl8u6Y0_1uuWwfkZZNxM173Y8oNj7sUIK-LtpgAHX3fVKQfTPssyC3JQCR-TovE9Z1jcLXk6DgcLbc2flzsONmpHSKn37bzWA/s320/DSC_2863_2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413280970814321266" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVs2mbmpMrRfGE_bVwUcAAkAy8cKkNaV-HpqtL4Jtx2MgrwW-yRzrWZL6zn3YLc8sG6rhT6WfygEFOs-C2nYCJ0UTFnl7hPJOkH7h1vR94zlhZAjYz9393vhYLrlxzwJr4-E27_7tFNSA/s1600-h/DSC_2706_2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVs2mbmpMrRfGE_bVwUcAAkAy8cKkNaV-HpqtL4Jtx2MgrwW-yRzrWZL6zn3YLc8sG6rhT6WfygEFOs-C2nYCJ0UTFnl7hPJOkH7h1vR94zlhZAjYz9393vhYLrlxzwJr4-E27_7tFNSA/s320/DSC_2706_2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413280962716818818" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3wKH1iq80ZrtmaYNXUi6JVVHhOxYuSUWM3AghvzlUl2hrR3PcULUChxrxYODEzPnLIJkg86h-gqdLnq5Ea-0aBpoWQs7wIb9i_AApcGa32NzsGQT3RYXbkJjsGGZad3bGqr_U6Dopz7Q/s1600-h/DSC_2741_2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3wKH1iq80ZrtmaYNXUi6JVVHhOxYuSUWM3AghvzlUl2hrR3PcULUChxrxYODEzPnLIJkg86h-gqdLnq5Ea-0aBpoWQs7wIb9i_AApcGa32NzsGQT3RYXbkJjsGGZad3bGqr_U6Dopz7Q/s320/DSC_2741_2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413280953268432898" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihJo9b9ztVyWB88LiO-t1CSu6TCFQmvPiKpV6ecUh-Qq0uFJamnIw6rLdA-JZmlS2cv3yFoh_zhdh188Rk4VMDH4kZjWm0H7_ceZ8m_n5kKmMuY6rtXVDBDc3x49A5dKQS6jSLNWyHZP8/s1600-h/DSC_2667_2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihJo9b9ztVyWB88LiO-t1CSu6TCFQmvPiKpV6ecUh-Qq0uFJamnIw6rLdA-JZmlS2cv3yFoh_zhdh188Rk4VMDH4kZjWm0H7_ceZ8m_n5kKmMuY6rtXVDBDc3x49A5dKQS6jSLNWyHZP8/s320/DSC_2667_2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413280943571202466" /></a><br />Ever since my first trip with Sid to Castaway Island I have always envisioned my bedroom chairs sitting at the end of the dock.
