BOBBI ELLE – THE FIRST YEAR

MATERNITY SHOOT FOR A SEXY MAMA!
This past week, we shot our first maternity shoot. It was the perfect timing, being 7 months pregnant….I was still feeling good and wasn’t at the point where I was looking puffy and swollen! Being that my husband is an awesome photographer…he is surronded by fellow awesome photographers – and we picked the right one to capture the mood and moments that will last long after the baby comes. April Keogh, a NYC based photographer, was who we chose to do the shoot. Knowing April personally, I knew she would make me feel and look beautiful. April and I discussed what type of shots we wanted and we knew that we wanted to not only capture the maternal vibe…but also some sexy maternal shots! I pushed back on this when April suggested it – but with some coaxing – I agreed…and I loved it!!
In order to pull off the shots – I needed my glam squad…Karen Baez has done my hair for all my special moments and this was no different. I also had to call in my guy Tray, to come hook up my face..I wanted to be flawless, so I needed all hands on deck!
MY FAVE BABY PRODUCTS – LIFE MADE EASY
What mom doesn’t scour the internet, searching and researching for best products for your new baby…I did! And over the last few months – there are quite a few products that have made life easy and have become some of my faves… I recently had a chance to share my list with The Wise Baby site. Every Wednesday, they feature real moms who share their story and products that they can’t live without. And this week – I’m that REAL MOM. Check it out!

SCATTERED THOUGHTS FROM A NEW MAMA
This blog has been a long time coming…..I’ve been a little busy since my last post about 10 months ago (yikes!)…let’s see –
I’ve had a baby girl.
She’s 7.5 months.
Time flies.
I have sooooo much to share about how life has changed for me since Bobbi Elle has come into my world…but have not had the time to do so. TIME…major thing that’s changed…I have far less of it now….
I wanna share how awesome my delivery was and my experience with being induced….wanna talk about how awesome my doula was. How having my cousin, sister and husband by my side made me laugh and want to choke them at different points – at the same damn time.
How my first night was with a newborn…how they left me with no instructions…or manual.
