Thank You, a Giveaway, and More Mini-Coop Pics

Friday, May 4, 2012

One week + one day old.

Mini-Cooper asked me to write this post to say thank you so, so, so, so, so, so much for all of your well wishes and congratulations that you left on this post. I never would have imagined that so many of you would take the time to leave such lovely comments. Our little family appreciates them very, very much. We are so lucky that he is healthy, happy, and very, very hungry (holy feedings, batman).

It was Cooper's idea to have a little giveaway to say thank you from the bottom of his little heart.

Remember those star map garlands hanging in little man's room?




They are from an adorable little Etsy shop called Maisy and Alice.



The shop is filled with adorable handmade paper decorations. The lovely shop owner has generously offered to give away any item from her shop (value up to $20) to one of you.

Not only that, she is offering a 15% discount to my readers for the next two weeks (just in case you don't win the giveaway but still would like an item from her shop).

So, here are the deets:

    Hi Sarah

    Cooper is so cute and I can see Alex in him. I worked with Alex a few years ago when he 1st came to Vale and he is such a sweetheart. Alex actually took us over to see the house when you 1st bought it and love what you have been going in the renovation dept.

  19. What an adorable little guy and Sarah, if that's you with wacky hair and no makeup, you're beautiful!

    I'd love to get the Mini Pom Pom Paper Garland if I won, but I think I'd have chosen the stars as you did but I don't see them available. :)

  20. Congratulations! He is SOOOOO cute!!!. I would love to hold him and kiss his soft cheeks.
    Enjoy your baby to the fullest. Hold him every chance you get, rock him to sleep to get more cuddle time, give him a massage after his bath and kiss, kiss and kiss him, because the saying is true: They grow up fast!!

Congratulations and I will definately be checking out your blog. I love your DIY projects...STUNNING...and your baby is too....try and get a little sleep....your body will need it.

    I just found your blog and am so glad I did!

    I absolutely love the star map garland. Being a military family, we will move around a lot. Our 9 month old son will have many homes. I think the map garland is a great way to embrace our situation.

    What a beautiful baby boy! Enjoy the blessings of motherhood! I can tell from how creative you are that you will find many thing to share with him as he grows.

    I have always loved the Classics, especially Pride & Prejudice, my go-to reading. My daughter Nadiyaah and I dance to the movies together, and enjoy reading time with this fantastic counting board book by BabyLit: http://www.amazon.com/Pride-Prejudice-BabyLit-English-Edition/dp/1423622022

    That is why I would choose the Vintage 3D Heart String Mobile with Pride & Prejudice to add to my daughters nursery.
