Our next door neighbors Craig and Vivienne (also sweet friends of ours) had a beautiful baby girl this week named Valentina. When I got home yesterday I laughed to find they had left a pink nylon bag hanging from the door filled with earplugs.

Very clever gift!
Friends of mine had a baby girl recently and after the first night when she basically cried the whole time their neighbours gave them a baby tshirt that read:"When I'm awake nobody is allowed to sleep".
I've read your blog for such a long time now and love your pictures. What I discovered: All your friends (and neighbours) are scaringly goodlooking! Maybe it's your talent that makes them so attractive. I hope it is. ;-)

hehe, that's funny. i've heard of people giving something like that to the new parents, but that is so funny for the parents to give. fun.

i also like the name a lot. pretty in an unusual way.

Valentina is a beautiful name, and I'm sure she's a beautiful baby as well.
