Well hello there...long time, I know. Can you say, B-U-S-Y? Good grief. My apologies for the deliquent posts and I am sure your life has been ruined because we haven't kept you up to date on our crazy East coast life. I am sure that if I were to live in the coveted West coast that life would be slower, thus more time to sit and type, upload, post, share and all that stuff. Hm...would it? I like to think it would. Please don't tell me different, because I am pretty sure I want to keep thinking this:)
Babbling..something I do often and out loud. I am pregnant, I can do what I want. Ha! Speaking of, that may be part of the reason we are busy. I have been getting larger by the minute and chasing a 3 year old around, oh, and a husband and dog. (Deep down, I would have it no other way.) Not to mention getting house in order, work, sister's wedding, soon arriving baby boy, attempts at vacation, The House, and a multitude of other miscellaneous endeavors that we continue to run in this rat race of life. Whew! Or, as my peeps in the Dakotas say, "Uf-dah! or Uf-dah May Day! if you want to be real serious."
So, I am hoping to get caught up on many missed events..plus many to come this year, so stay tuned:)
In the meantime, here are a few pictures of the pre-schooler who is now a Creative Caterpillar in K-3. She loves to color and I must say is pretty good at staying in the lines. Iz adores babies and that includes stuffed animals and demands they sleep on their stomachs (that is face down) covered in blankets or dishtowels. She is pretty sure bugs are evil now and will not go close....this could be partly my fault. AND in case you didn't know, Iz is pregnant with her baby girl, whose name is Mia. She "got pregnant" about the same time I started showing and has stuck with it since and the name has also been decided for some time. We kiss each others bellies before bed almost every night and she plays pat-a-cake with her brother (my ever gorwing belly). Quite entertaining. She decided she does not want her picture taken for any reason and does not care to perform for anyone any longer. Toddlers..gotta love them. So without further delay...some snippets of life lately, okay this summer.
Evidence of the "babies" sleeping on their stomachs, covered in dishtowels as their blankets...it really is the perfect size.

Izzy loves being on Daddy's shoulders and pulling/playing with his ears.

Chilling with Daddy sometime in August...she had a cold, so there is nothing better than snuggling with Daddy and watching a movie....with babies of course.
