On Maternity Leave!

on

Our son was born, at 8 lbs 11 oz and 22 inches, on Thanksgiving Day! He is by far the best, most beautiful and angelic thing to ever come into my life, and I am going to spend some time showing G-d my gratitude for what my husband has deemed our "little turkey" by focusing just on him. We feel very blessed :)

I am taking a short maternity leave from blogging. During this time, pre-scheduled posts, reviews, and giveaways will continue to post (so you can still visit, enter gveaways, read, etc), but I will be unable to respond to emails for a little while until I return. I hope every enjoyed a great Thanksgiving holiday.
