Guilty Pleasures...

While Riley's taking her naps, I get on the computer and frequent these sites:

Just thought I'd share, since I always seem to be cooped up inside while it's snowing...

I keep forgetting...

To post up here that Riley can point, wave bye bye, clap, and say "dog" and "doggy".

and this cute picture was taken at the fashion show on Saturday:

Riley- Valentine Cutie Pants!

I found this when I woke up.

Ry loves playing with her fake food, she put the mushroom in her mouth like it was a binky!

She loves admiring herself in the mirror




What a cutie! Nana got this cute little Valentine outfit for her. It was perfect!

Valentine's Eve

So I have been working hard all week on my lingerie line that I am showcasing in the Lover's Leap Event tomorrow at the Bangor Opera House. I am so excited with the way everything turned out! Everything is over the top and fabulous, just the way I like it =). I am so thankful for all the opportunities I have been given to display my talent in design. I have gotten a lot of compliments on the outfits I have made, so hopefully people will want to start buying them!! If you haven't checked it out already, I have an etsy shop set up with some of the baby booties I have been making out of cotton tea towels. Head on over to this link http://catiecc.etsy.com and take a look! I have to add some more soon, as well as put up some of the knitted flower headbands and circle neck scarves I've been making. Spread the word and give me some business!

Tomorrow night (if I'm not too exhausted) I'll post the pictures from the show so you can enjoy =) I hope everyone has a lovely Valentine's Day!

Almost Over...

So Andrew and I are still getting over this terrible cold/sickness that EVERYONE seems to have right now. Riley has been pretty much over it the past few days, just a little case of diarrhea...but I'm glad that she's her normal happy self. I'm also glad that I didn't get the terrible part of this sickness, I've only had a stuffy nose and a headache. And of course, some sleep deprivation. But that's to be expected. Tomorrow we're going to meet Auntie Rachel in Portland, Maine...we were going today but it's supposed to snow 15 inches, yikes! I'll be taking quite a few pictures tomorrow, and I'm sure Rachel will to because she has a SLR! So check back to see some artfully taken photos =)

I hope everyone else is well and not catching this cold!!!

It all started with the movies...

Andrew and I decided to have a little date night last night and went to see Mall Cop at the movie theater. We left a little after 7 since the movie started at 7:20. Everything was fine, until about an hour into the movie I get a text message from Andrew's mom saying Riley threw up all over herself and her crib. This is the first time she's ever gotten sick. I started to get anxious, and thankfully the movie was almost over. We stopped at the store on the way home and got some pedialyte so she wouldn't get dehydrated. We got home and my heart just broke. Her little baby face was so sad, and she was so sleepy. We had to hold her upright for a couple of hours so she didn't choke on her throw up. It was just SO SAD. I don't even know how to explain how I felt. She was just so helpless, I wanted to be the one throwing up, not her. Thankfully she took the pedialyte and we got her to go to sleep. She ended up sleeping in bed with us. This morning she felt much better. She was actually back to her normal, cute self! Babbling and playing with her toys. She just went down for another nap since she woke up a little earlier then usual this morning. I'm so thankful that she's better. It's so scary when you're child is sick and there's not a whole lot you can do except wait it out and be there for them.
