Why I created this blog...

"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep a record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experiences. "

My, how fast they grow!

OK, so I know I still have to get my birthstory up here. But in the meantime, I wanted to share a few pictures I took of my little Snugglebutt a couple days ago. I'm tellin' you, he's all smiles until I get the camera out. And then he just turns into a little stink. :) I really had to work to get a smile out of him, and even then, it was his biggest sister that finally got one that I actually caught with my camera. Speaking of...I had the camera on the wrong setting, so the pictures are grainy and the color is off. Oh well, I still think he's pretty darn cute if you ask me. 

Who needs to smile when you have cheeks like these?

Or lips like these?

And there it is....Looking up at his big sister with a big smile he saves just for her. 

I heart him.

Yes. I know. It's been forever.

I've been absolutely horrible about keeping up here. And I apologize. Things have been busy to say the least. I had forgotten just how busy newborns are! And before that, getting ready for one. I have so many things to catch up on that it's making my head spin to think about it all. But for this morning, and because Mr. Snugglebutt is starting to wake up and fuss, I'll just share some pictures to start....

These were his newborn pictures that we had done when he was brand new....They make me weepy already knowing that he's already so much bigger! (I'll work on posting his birthstory soon. I know it'll come by the way of lots of tears on my part. It was, by far, one of the most special days of my life.)










I need to go get him up and ready for the day. I do promise to be back from now on. I have SO much to update about, so hopefully I can start catching up a little at a time. Oh and just so I don't leave them out...here's some pictures of my precious girls....
