Welcome, Fall


Hi Cuties,
Sorry it has been so long since I've posted.  You know when life is really kicking your ass and all you can do is hang on? Well, yeah.  I am hanging on by the very, very tips of my fingers.  I hate playing the busy, stressed out game.  Nobody wants to hear that work is busy.  Nobody wants to hear about the challenge of the JUGGLE, the balance between work and home, ugh, ugh, ugh, just ugh.  So the blog has been silent.  But yeah, I'm juggling, definitely.  Juggling successfully?  I'm not so sure.  I want to sit down and write, really write, some of the things that have been on mind, because I love to write.  That's why I have this blog and that's what helps me keep my life in focus.  But there's not enough time, not enough silence.  There's not enough time for a lot of really important things right now.  So writing has had to be back burnered, along with pretending I am going to work out, watching Real World St. Thomas, and calling my friends back.  Sigh.
This weekend we went out to Long Island to visit with Erik's family and Charlie was introduced to the ipad.  He was pretty into doing anything that his cousin was doing and playing with an ipad immediately skyrocketed to the top of his to-do list.  Until ipads are drool proof,  I think Charlie's still a little young, but what a glimpse into the future.  
Hope you are all juggling with more success than I am!
xo,
C

Milestones














Hi Cuties,
We spent the weekend on our annual trip to the lake where we got married and it was really nice.  This is the second anniversary of our wedding and I can't believe how much has happened in the past two years!   Going back to the lake for the second time really made me realize how much weight this annual trip holds and how many memories we'll have the chance to create with our own little tradition.  Last year, for our first anniversary, I was just pregnant with Charlie, and now, he's here!  It's exciting and completely overwhelming (in a good, yet emotional way) to think of the many annual check-ins in our future.
Have shared some pics from my phone and lots more to come!  We got some good ones this year, even a family shot ;)
xo,
