Little Things

Simple shots of our life this past week. Tune back next week for a similar post! I’d also love to have you follow me on Instagram (@cakestand) if you’re interested in more photos of food and baby!

This necklace. A beautiful gift from a friend to commemorate Lucille’s birth. Antique french relic (from the 1800s!) on a necklace of fresh-water pearls.

Lucy loves her hands…and rarely stays on her back for long now. She’s perfected the art of rolling over.

See?

We had a lovely dinner party with one of my best friends from my MFA program. Lucy looked lovely on their blue chair.

Lucy caught her first cold, but handled it like a champ. Breast milk down the nose = quick recovery. Seriously, guys: it works.

And as of Thursday at 1:50 pm, Lucille Amelia turned 100 days old.

    Lovely set this week, I am now addicted to your Simple Things series, and it’s something to look forward to every week… not to put pressure on you, not at all πŸ™‚

    But as long as you can keep posting, I will keep melting away here, marveling at the cuteness of your baby!

    That necklace is a beautiful treasure, Monet. Just gorgeous. However, the star of this post is most certainly that beautiful baby of yours. So precious. Enjoy each and every moment, and thank you for sharing…

    I discovered your blog from the recipe for raspberry cookies that my future daughter-in-law pinned. I’m in a beautiful B&B in Bar Harbor, Maine on vacation tonight. Couldn’t sleep – so what to do? Look for recipes. I’m on my iPad (still getting used to surfing the web on this) and cannot locate the recipe for you chocolate chip cookies with the added extra butter, brown sugar and egg yolk. Where is it hiding? This is going to be my first cookie I back when I return home. You have a great blog and beautiful family. I look forward to reading more.

    You are so beautiful, Monet, and Lucy is the spitting image of you. Seeing your Instagram photos is such a treat. They’re always so lovely. I adore that necklace – what a fabulous gift!
