While I may have been absent on my blog and Facebook over the past year, I have been posting like crazy over on a little app called Instagram.  If you want to see what I have been up to over the past year, follow me and take a look.  Here’s a little snippet:

(I had hoped to say more but I have a sick little baby boy on my hands, who is ready to get out of his crib, so I’ll keep this short and sweet.  And really if I have any hope of posting here on any kind of a regular basis, short and sweet is just going to have to cut it sometimes, right)?

Let’s all pretend that we didn’t see that last blog post where I made all sorts of promises to start posting more frequently.  You know, that promise I made last March.  Yeah, let’s pretend that didn’t happen.  Instead, I thought it’d be better to focus on what has been keeping me busy.  Meet Charlie.  This little guy was welcomed into our family back in August.  I could gush for hours on end about how adorable and perfect and hilarious he is, but instead I’ll just show you.  If you have any sense about you at all, you will surely agree!

Since I haven’t shared any photos of him on here yet, I’ll start at the beginning….

There I am, 9 months pregnant and SO ready to meet our little guy.Pretty perfect, right?And his dad kind of liked him.It was pretty remarkable to see Farris’s instant connection with him.  Bringing home a new baby, you worry about how your other child will cope, but she loved that little guy and embraced him into our family from the very first second she laid eyes on him.  She really blew me away.
Make fun of me all you want but the crown had to happen.  And then he grew up a little and I got a little taste of what that smile could do to my heart…And then of course there was that one time when we tried to get an Easter portrait.  That went well.See?  He’s hilarious.Pretty proud of my little family.  The end.
