A Reflection on Life and Love...

Alright, so I understand that it has been eight months since my last blog post...I feel the need to lay out all of my excuses, but I never professed to be a great blogger anyway!  So much has happened in the last eight months.  First thing: I grew a little person in my tummy.  No biggie.  Well, truthfully, she is still in there and we are anxiously awaiting her arrival, which could be any day now!  On top of being pregnant with a toddler running around me, we also moved to Texas.  I like challenges, but come on!!

So, life has been challenging, but it has also been great.  The best part of this blog for me is that I am able to reflect on everything and it helps me really put things into perspective.  For instance, being 38 weeks pregnant isn't exactly the most fun I've had and I was feeling that today in a big way.  But sitting here in front of this keyboard I realize just how blessed I am.  I have a family who I love with my whole heart.  We have so much fun and share so much love for each other.  We have experienced a lot and have had many adventures already, all of which make us stronger both as individuals, but also as a family.

Recently, we had a family photo shoot and I think Jenny, our photographer did a great job of capturing the love in our family and our anticipation of the newest member of our family.  I will cherish these memories forever.

 Love.
