a few things.

so, remember a long time ago when i used to blog?
huh. it's been a while. two big things you should know:
  1. we had that baby i was referring to last post
  2. we are moving back to california
  3. due to item #2, i have renamed this blog
wait. so make that three big things.
let's start with some of my favorite pictures of our sweet baby, Molly Catherine. 

Sadie loved her immediately
Newborn
One month-ish
First day back at church
Snuggles
Seriously. Sadie cannot get enough of her.
Three months old.
First Easter.
Tummy time.
Four Months.
Five Month Birthday.

it's unbelievable how fast the past five months have gone by. i know saying that makes me sound like a middle aged woman, but it's TRUE. poof. suddenly the baby is eating and sleeping and smiling and laughing and those newborn months are a total blur forever.

after an initial rough patch of GERD and day/night reversals, i think it's safe to say that we've hit the baby jackpot. if this baby was any smilier, you'd think she was faking it. she sleeps a solid 10 hours every night, nurses like a champion, and has the raddest head of hair you're likely to see this week. she single handedly halted all commerce at our butcher shop when the women came out from behind the counter to coo over her. true, it didn't bag us any free sausages or anything, but it was flattering nonetheless. we've all fallen head-over-heels in love, not the least of which this one:

the big sister.
i was telling a friend today that when sadie hates the world, as i've found two year olds sometimes do, she still loves molly. when she is tired and cranky, she still loves molly. even when she gets in trouble because of molly, she still LOVES molly. our prayers that sadie would adjust well to having a baby sister have been answered far and above what we could have ever imagined. they have a special relationship already and it is a beautiful thing to behold. God has been so gracious to us.

as for the whole california thing...well that's another post entirely.
in the meantime, check out the about section and let me know what you think of the revamp.

i'm back. and this time i mean it. :)
