This shhh is B-A-N-A-N-A-S....

Banana Republic has gone Chino crazy and I love it! Banana is a close second to JCrew for the perfect clothes.

Belly...

Gabe- You have a big belly! I love it!! I love chunky babies... I love your chunky legs too. If you were a girl, I would not be saying these things to you. I know girls can take things the wrong way - I would if someone told me I had a chunky belly (I do) or chunky legs, but your mom told me you're cool with it.
I love you so much!

I'm Sorry...

Dear Blog-

I'm so very sorry for neglecting you the past week. I have so much to share and write, but things have been crazy busy! I promise to take better care of you.

Love you,

Christian

Here are a few pictures from the past week... Only 3 because I want to save others for new posts.

When did he turn 15? He got his hair cut Sunday and now looks so much older! I don't like it - He needs to stay little forever.

This is how I found him in the bathroom Saturday. So funny!!

Is this not one of the most adorable things you have EVER seen. My friend's mother in law MADE it for her new baby. It was love at first sight. Abby, please ask your MIL if she can make me one... Blue and choc brown... Please!!

Sick...

We are sick, sick, sick... And snowed in! I'm going back to bed.

Peace.

Necklace.... From Lynne

If it's possible for someone to read more magazines than I do, it's my friend Lynne. Because of this talent (it's a talent to read 20+ mags a month with a 3 year old), Lynne is always up to date on the latest fashion trends, jewelry, celebrity hook ups, celebrity break ups, ect. Today, she sent me a link to Sarahchloe.com and I fell in LOVE with this necklace. I would get it with Chase's initials so instead of SRA it would read CTR. The best part is that she sent me the link while still in the hospital from delivering her baby boy. What a friend. Thanks Lynne for sending me the link and congratulations on baby Lucas.

**Please note that Lynne does not read 20+ magazines a month - it just seems like it. ;)

It's Coming.... Again.

We are in for another HUGE winter storm tonight and tomorrow. This will be the second big storm of the season - our first was right before Christmas. We could get up to 24 inches of snow! I've lived in NJ for 8 years and it's never snowed this much in one season. It's beautiful and fun but at the same time annoying. We had to reschedule my friend's baby shower and now I can't go see my other friends newborn baby. Annoying. Maybe we will take Chase sledding... Or maybe we will just stay home, watch movies, eat snacks and stay warm. At the very least, it will be a weekend spent with Chase and I'm ok with that.

My Silver Fox....

I love this picture of Rob and Chase (yes, Chase has other shirts, but this one seems to keep popping up in the photos I post of him). Rob is going to AZ in March to visit his sister. I'm excited for him, but not sure what I will do without him for 5 days!! Really, I'm more worried how his stalker (Chase) is going to do with not seeing his Daddy for 5 days. It's amazing how much this kid loves his dad. When Rob is around, I don't exist. I do get jealous, but I thank God everyday that Rob is such a good father and that him and Chase are so close. I hope they always are.

Blog Design Giveaway! I NEED to win...

One of my favorite blogs is giving away a blog redesign... I NEED to win! I've been thinking about getting my blog fancied up, but can't justify spending the money. I would love to win! Pray for me. If I don't win, I hope you do.

Head over to the Suaviloquy blog to enter. Good luck!

One word....

FINALLY!!!!

I *heart* JGK!

Look at this boy! I can't believe he will be 6 months old on the 9th! Time flies! He looks just like his mommy (my brother doesn't believe me and swears he looks like him... He doesn't).

I love you Gabe! I can't wait to see you in April. Chase and I talk about you alot. I think he's also excited to see you.
