Happy Halloween!

What a beautiful Halloween evening! It was a little chilly…but all around it felt fantastic! We took Annelise trick-or-treating for her first Halloween and had a great time. Obviously she can’t eat any candy…so we just walked around the neighborhood with all of her baby friends. Here are some pictures of her flower costume.

Cutest Baby Hats EVER!

For some of Annelise’s 2 week newborn pictures I got to dress her up in fun hats. How cute are these??!

My sister-in-law actually made them and she sells them on ETSY…she’s VERY talented! Here is the link if you want to purchase some (I LOVE MINE!): http://www.etsy.com/shop/cottoncandycraftings

It feels good to be back!

Today is my first day back from maternity leave! Unfortunately, I’ve neglected this blog while I was away…so I’ll post some pics to catch you up. Annelise Katherine was born on August 4th, weighing 7 lbs 5 ounces. Here are some of her newborn pictures taken at 2 weeks old.

So Cute!

I got the cutest surprise from a viewer today. Check out this candy bouquet from the fine ladies at Sugar Shack Candy Bouquet (www.candybouquet.com) in John’s Creek.

It’s got little chocolate cigars, pink gum cigars, lolly pops, a pink teddy bear, and tons of candy/chocolate. Definitely a nice alternative to flowers!

Hands Off

For those of you who have been pregnant, you know how strange it is when a total stranger comes up to you and starts rubbing your belly. I don’t mind when family or friends go in for a little rub…but it’s different when it’s somebody you don’t know.

The other day during BMA, we had former SNL’er Rob Schneider on the show. I was in the middle of doing weather, and suddenly Rob comes running up and rubs my belly on live TV.

I had no idea he was going to do that…in fact…I hadn’t even met him yet! Of course, I laughed it off (after all, it IS Rob Schneider). I did tell him that he’s not allowed to rub a pregnant woman’s belly without asking first. I was only half kidding. tee hee hee

Now Baby Valdez can say Deuce Bigalow Male Gigolo rubbed her while she was in the womb…and who else can say that?

It’s been another week, and I finally feel like I can see the finish line in the distance. Although I’m feeling more tired and uncomfortable I’m still feeling well (considering).
