One year ago...

This is where Nate and I were spending our time relaxing one year ago.

Oh how I miss the beautiful island of Hawaii. It was so much fun being there, just the two of us. I wish I was there now, relaxing on the beach or lounging in the amazing hotel room we had. It was such a great trip that I'll never forget.

Although, this is what I looked like at the time...

I sure don't miss that big ol belly. I was about 34 weeks along when we went. The 12 hours of traveling, with a 6 hour flight over nothing but the ocean was something I don't ever plan on doing again while being that big. But, it was totally worth it! Thanks Carter for coming so we could go on such an awesome trip!

TOFW

I got to go to Time Out for Women last weekend. It was lots of fun. I really enjoyed the speakers and the music, and the company of course!

Carter

Carter boy had his 9 month well visit today. Here's his stats:

20# 6oz
29"tall

No shots today since he woke up with the stomach bug. Poor guy. Right now he can army crawl like a pro, getting anywhere in the house. He waves bye and can cover his eyes and play peek a boo. He claps and has not one single tooth yet. He loves food and never stops eating. He is such a sweet fun boy and we love him.

I forgot to take a picture of him at the Dr office, so here's one in his sweet spider man jammies from the other night.

Lazy Saturday

Nate has been gone since Thursday. I knew I needed to figure something out for Saturday to keep us busy for the long day. It's still too cold to really do anything outside, and Carter doesn't do very well on long outings. I consulted my BFF pinterest and found a few fun ideas. We hit up the dollar store for a few supplies. Girls are still going strong on our first activity.

Shower curtain and sharpies.

I'm actually impressed with their creativity and Imagination.

Trying it out from my phone

I got the blogger app
Let's see if it works
This could be amazing

yep, i'm still here

I was reading through my old blog posts and it made me happy and sad! I am happy I was so good at blogging and documented so many fun things, but it made me sad that i've fallen off track and haven't blogged for so long. i really don't want to go back and try to "catch up", so i think i'll just start here and try to do better.

here goes nothin.

Carter is here

For anyone who still checks this old blog, here is our latest addition to our family. We are in love already.

My c-section was scheduled for May 20th, at 4pm. We got there about 2pm and had to wait and wait forever! I was tired and hungry and grumpy and ready to meet my little guy. They finally took me back to the OR about 5:20 and he was born at 5:52. He was 8lbs 7oz and 22" long. The delivery went perfectly and the recovery so far has been great. We are so blessed to have this sweet boy join our family!
