time to revive this blog.

Top Ten Things that have happened since I last blogged (eight months ago):

1 - my nephew, Kalen, braved major brain surgery in hopes to alleviate his symptoms of Chiari Malformation.

this is what a hero looks like
2 - Charlotte celebrated her first Easter. We were excited. She didn't really care.

3 - We went on a trip to Florida and Charlotte earned her wings. She handles flights like a champ, btw.
this picture straight up kills me
4 - Charlotte and I took a trip to Colorado for Liz & Sarah Thoma's wedding.


5 - Charlotte started walking and then turned one. We celebrated. I cried. She ate cake. I cried again.

6 - Morgan turned another year older and realized that he now needs TWO boxes of candles for his cake.
Morgan turned 25 on the 4th of July
6 - Suspicions confirmed - I'm knocked up. Due April 22.

shock of the century
7 - We took another trip -- this time to North Carolina. We brought Morgan along, too.


8 - I went to a Justin Bieber concert. Like a boss.

9 - Charlotte swallowed a button, was taken to the ER, got an X-ray, and never pooped the dang thing out.
I don't have any pictures of the button - so enjoy this one of my child being adorable instead

10 - I was put on bed rest. Thanks a heap, low-lying placenta.

Bed rest = no make-up and sexy clothes.... and being your toddler's jungle gym

Why do I suck at blogging? Who knows. Clearly I'm unmotivated. But since I am on bed rest and bored out of my skull, I decided that this would be a fun thing to do during nap time. So now you'll get to hear about the joys of sitting on the couch for several hours each day, pregnancy with a toddler, being "unable" to lift your child, and my life of being waited on hand and foot. (Which is actually much worse than one would think...)

I know you're excited. I am. :)
