~slacking is a habit... our crazy life and our incredible gift~




so... apparently i decided to make slacking a permanent hobby of mine seeing as it has been almost a year since i posted anything on here BUT i truly have a great reason(s) for joining the slacker hall of fame! first... we found out we were moving (yay!) so the packing commensed... then, after all the packing was done we were house searching and ready to pick up and go, we find out that we weren't moving after all... seriously. so all the unpacking slowly started happening (not nearly as quickly as the packing and with much less excitement). next, the BEST thing we could imagine happened... we found out that we were expecting! the amazing joy i felt can't even be explained, it was incredible and needless to say i began to think of things other than posting random thoughts. there was of course work, dr visits, work, trips home, the holidays, car trouble, work, more dr visits, and lots of other fun stuff mixed in there to help avert my attention. finally (and more than likely needless to say) nine months later -may 16, 2011- after some preeclampsia, sickness, dizziness, exhaustion, and a surprisingly short pushing period our gorgeous little gift from God came into this world. cooper maddux was 7lbs 20.5 inches of beautiful little man, who completely rocked my world (and continues to do so) in the most incredible way. his daddy and i couldn't have been happier to have our newest little blessing in our arms. so... our little man is now our big 11 wk old (tomorrow) man, who has brought a whole new definition to what i had previously thought love was... mommy-hood is the best time of my life, i got to fall in love with a little angel and fall in love with my husband all over again. amazing. needless to say, i haven't had much time, nor did i want, to think about anything other than maddux. anywho, i am currently trying to convience myself that i can make a comeback and begin to post in a semi consistent manner again soon. we will see what happens... :)
