What's NEW?

Just to catch you up a bit:

  • For more than a year now, I have been working as the Director of a Nursing Program at a local college.  
  • I still teach my One-Day Childbirth Classes as well as the Infant CPR Classes.  I still help Moms & Dads in labor but am LIMITED as to how many I may help each month.  IF YOU ARE PREGNANT and wish for my labor support again, PLEASE CONTACT ME AS SOON AS POSSIBLE so that I can put your name in one of the few reserved slots!Baby Dylan
  • With my new schedule, I have been able to do more BIRTH PHOTOGRAPHY for Planned Cesarean Sections but not so much the Vaginal Births.  But what a great thing for the
     moms who have C-Sections!  If it is scheduled, I just pop in, take some great pictures, and pop out!  And the Mom & Dad have, hopefully, some great memories captured!!!
  • I moved out of Boca for the first time in over 15 years as to be closer to my Director job.  So, if you haven't spotted me in Publix, the gym, or Starbucks that is the reason.  I miss running into all of you!  Please keep using my PO BOX ADDRESS as that remains the same.
  • I am on FACEBOOK and love keeping in touch with so many of you that way...so feel free to "be my friend" if you would like!
  • Baking has slowed down alot! No time!...still visit Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts as often as possible (hehe), continue to complain about my weight and wish I could get to the gym more often (hehe....nothing changes)!  Thank goodness for New Year's Resolutions!
     

Ah...soooooooo many changes.  But all is well!!!  So now you are up to date!  

- xoxo Diane
