I've been working on revamping my jewelry website and I had my first photo shoot. Here are some of the previews.







A few new collections will be launching in the next few weeks, including a new baby line. Please be sure to check it out then. It was a pleasure working with you, Paola. Thanks for making my job so easy!

I went out for some shopping with just Chloe and my mom. It's SO great that we can take Chloe to shop with us now that she's old enough (to know to not run away from us). She was making friends everywhere we went, talking to sales people and showing off her painted finger nails. We've been talking about stopping her thumb sucking habit and I thought I would encourage her by painting her nails pink. I'm not sure if I did the right thing… She seems tooooo happy about it… and she's still sucking her finger.

I told Chloe that I had a hard day at work today.
Chloe: Mommy, when I grow up, I put on a sweater and put on a jacket, I get my shoes on and I go to work with you. And everybody will be scared of me and all the people will afraid of you! (while making two little fists)
Me: Ha ha Chloe, you will?
Chloe: Of course! Would you like that mommy?

Chloe made this piece of cake with a candle (above picture) and I was making the mermaid, when…
Chloe: Are you making a mermaid?
Me: Yes, Chloe. I am making a beautiful mermaid and you are making a delicious piece of cake.
Chloe: You're making a mermaid for me?
Me: No… I am making ME a mermaid. YOU are making you a piece of cake.
Chloe: No, no, no, that's my mermaid.
Me: How is this your mermaid? I'm making it.
Chloe: You're making the mermaid for me, because you are my assistant!
Me: Excuse me?? Do you even know what that means?
Chloe: (smiles)
Me: Chloe, do you know what assistant means?
Chloe: It means you're my HELPER!

It snowed, snowed and snowed… Andrew, Chloe and I had a blast playing with snow.

I pushed her into snow. She loved it.

Took her a while to get up.

Then Andrew pushed her.

Now, she's coming towards me to push me into snow.


Ha ha, I got her again.

We took the kids to this place called Kid Juction in Branchburg, NJ. They had a blast running around, climbing, shopping and letting their pent up energy out.
