2012 Year In Review


Hi Friends,

I truly can't believe 2012 has come and gone.  So much has happened this year...my life has completely changed.  And I'm so grateful I was able to document it here.  My blog has truly evolved from a fashion/food/decor blog to ALL things baby...with some of the former sprinkled in.   I just can't help it!  But I wouldn't have it any other way...and I am so appreciative to all my readers who have stuck with me and to all my new readers who have popped in to say hello.  I anticipate 2013 to be a big adventure as we watch our Baby Schue grow!  

So here's a little recap of the last year...enjoy!

{January}

I celebrated one year of blogging.
We found out Baby Schue is a BOY!!!


{February}

Discussed my maternity diet.
Made some mini key lime tarts!
Made a couple decor updates in our living room.


{March}

Saw Baby Schue in 3D {and he smiled!}
And had my first baby shower.


{April}

Entered into my third trimester!
Made some delicious banana cream cheese muffins
Got crafty and put together the nursery curtains {which involved pipes and shower curtains}.


{May}

Put together the perfect cheese platter
Had my second baby shower in Tahoe!
Took our maternity photos!


{June}

Shared my baby registry essentials 
Gave you a tour of Baby Schue's nursery:


And of course the biggest and BEST news of the year...we welcomed our son Ethan Grant on June 26th!


{July}

I shared Ethan's birth story {makes me emotional every time I read it!}
And I listed our First Month Favorites:




{August}

Gave you some ideas on nursing apparel.
Celebrated our three year wedding anniversary.
Shared Ethan's newborn photos


{September}

Shared my thoughts and tips on traveling with baby and my hospital bag essentials.
Made the most delicious butternut squash enchiladas {favorite recipe of the year!}


{October}

Came up with some inspiration for little boy's clothing.
Shared our two and three month favorites.
Celebrated baby's first halloween!


{November}

Shared Ethan's 3 month photos


Made a delicious breakfast pizza and pumpkin scones!
Celebrated Baby's First Thanksgiving!

{December}

Decorated for Christmas!
Celebrated Baby's First Christmas!
And last, we celebrated my birthday and Ethan's 6 Month birthday...how have 6 months gone by already?!

It's crazy to think that the first part of the year I was rocking this bump:


And now I have a six month old baby!  I simply cannot wait for the next year ahead.

Many thanks to all my readers for their love, support and encouragement this past year.  I am so blessed to be a part of this amazing community of moms and women.

Cheers to 2013!
