it’s official! little Penelope was born this morning. i got a phone call from my parents sometime around three (just about to go to sleep!) and Jeremy was kind enough to go to the hospital with me. we watched Home Alone in the waiting room and then she was born. it was pretty magical seeing her little face for the first time! everyone is healthy, happy and very excited. especially my mom…..
also, i am SOOOO excited to announce that miss Leigh-Ann and i are teaching a new online class together called Style School. The class is a fun way to discover and develop your own personal style in areas of art, home, wardrobe and life! We are really excited to share more about this in the coming week! Keep watching for previews and details! XOXO. elsie

Congratulations, Auntie! Such a fun gift to be an auntie. And on such an awesome date. My mom’s only siblings, a brother and a sister, were both born on November 17th…but almost 10 years apart! As if the date wasn’t special enough already, it was also the date my (now) husband proposed to me. So glad we can share this special day of 17. Congrats to your whole family!!! 🙂
