calendar girl - january

Seven months old?  Seriously, how is this even possible?

i'm baa-aaack!

When I started this blog, I was so great about updating regularly.  It was such a high priority in my life.  I was proud to show off our little family to our friends and family who don't get to see us daily.  After Halle was born, I tried my hardest to keep it up, but time just got away from me!  

I know, especially with 2 kids, that life isn't going to slow down any time soon!  In the midst of chasing our two girlies, Scott and I have decided to buy a new house!  The thought of packing up everything we own and moving it just a mere 1.9 miles make me cringe, but we are busting at the seams.  We've found the perfect house for us and are thrilled about this new adventure.  Of course our move will be very bittersweet!  More on moving and the new house to come!!

I am writing this post with the sincere intent of getting this blog back on my priority list!  We have had some really great times since I've been gone!  I'm going to hit the highlights to get caught up.

Here's a picture of the girls in their wagon one night last week.  We've sure been loving the weather!!

It feels good to be back!
