<br />
Olivia Marie is here! She arrived at the end of August. She weighed eight pounds, four ounces and measured twenty-one inches long. Will and I are absolutely in love with her, and the pup is crazy about her too. It's been such an adventure already and we can't imagine life without her.<br />
<br />
I'm going to take a bit of time away from blogging to simply spend time with her. I hope you all have a lovely couple weeks -- and I look forward to seeing you again soon!<br />

I like to think she's comfy and cozy and just taking her time. Of course, we're so excited to meet her and having a hard time waiting!<br />
<br />
Maybe because my mind is on the baby, I am drawn to gorgeous shades of pink even more than usual. I love all these paintings by Vancouver artist <a href="http://zoepawlak.com/">Zoe Pawlak</a>. She is incredibly versatile but there's something beautiful that connects all her work.<br />

I hope you had a great weekend. Mine was very relaxing, with lots of time spent reading. Sometimes it's nice just to hunker down at home and enjoy just being there.<br />
<br />
I'd imagine it would be quite pleasant to spend time in this <a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/jeannettes-journey-through-time-place-house-tour-173440">Virginia home</a>, featured on <a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/">Apartment Therapy</a>. The huge windows and open floor plan are great, but I especially like the details -- the black and white elements, global accents and little surprises like a mini disco ball on display.<br />

My husband and I made no plans so we could do whatever we felt like in the moment. We ended up with two days of simple pleasures: Watching the Olympics. Taking the pup for a walk. Making a breakfast of fresh strawberries and yogurt. Settling in with a stack of new magazines. I hope you had a lovely weekend too!<br />

I love spending time in this room already! Sunshine filters in through the trees outside, and inside there are so many sweet touches from loved ones. My mom sewed the pink and white crib skirt and bed pillows, and my aunt made a quilt and crocheted a cast of <i>Star Wars</i> characters as a gift to my husband. We're just so excited for what's to come!<br />

I like to relax and reset for the week to come. But last night, my husband and I met up with my sister, her husband and their little boy and hung out at the terrace by the lake. It was wonderful! My nephew ran around and fed birds, and we all got to talk and laugh. It makes me rethink my approach to the end of a weekend.<br />

But I like basketball, sailing, cycling, tennis, volleyball and equestrian events too. How about you?<div>

But one of my favorite elements is how squared and angular many of the components are, from the windows to the bedframe to the living room furniture. Have a look!<br />

There's something so special about a place filled with books, an entire building devoted to stories that can teach you anything or take you anywhere. I recently saw this roundup of the <a href="http://www.flavorwire.com/280318/the-25-most-beautiful-public-libraries-in-the-world">world's most beautiful public libraries</a>, and it got my imagination running. Here are a few, from Rome, Mexico City, Amsterdam, Stuttgart and Paris.<br />

It was so nice to spend time up north, in this land of forests and lakes. And I'm excited to say my parents just bought a house up here. It's right on a lake and came with a big pontoon boat. I can't wait to come up to enjoy the water and woods peacefulness, and to keep our connection to this beautiful area that means to much to my family.<br />

I've spent a lot of time here, especially at my grandparents' home, which has always been a natural -- and very lively -- gathering spot. We often came up in early July to celebrate my grandpa's birthday. He would have been ninety this week, but he passed away a few years ago. Still, when my grandma, parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, sister, and all the spouses and kids come together like this, we tend to feel like he's still with us. Here's a photo of my grandparents in their younger, carefree days. Weren't they cute?<br />

A place you could escape to with the purpose of unwinding, relaxing and literally getting away from it all? This <a href="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/decor/2012-07/frank-greenwald-mary-foley-michael-cox-hamptons-house-article">Hamptons home</a>, featured in <a href="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/"><i>Architectural Digest</i></a>, would be pretty nice. The only problem is, I don't think I'd be able to leave that amazing pool and patio come Sunday!<br />

Last night, our city held a fireworks show. While I was too tired to go out to the park to watch it, my husband and I discovered we had a pretty good view from our house. Sitting on the bed in the nursery, we looked out the windows past roofs and treetops and watched dazzling fireworks light up the sky. It was amazing!<br />
