in between.

oh my goodness.

it's been too long since i last posted.

the little man's arrival has been quite an adjustment

and just now we are getting into some kind of routine.

(well, more or less.)

but in between

the feedings

and cooking,

and cleaning up messes,

and just being with my boys,

i've managed to capture a few

moments with them.

here's a morning with some play dough.

his "tower"... that he is also slicing in two.

we've been

watching little brother

do new things.

like roll over.

and coo and babble.

and punch animals dangling from his activity mat.

here he is

on his 2 month old birthday.

sept 25.

we took a road trip to see my sweet sister

and celebrate the birth of her own little one.

my mom, my sister and liam.

we've partied when daddy is home.

those times are our favorites of the day.

there is always a sigh of relief when

we hear the door open and we see his face.

he's our super hero.

his special power is saving us me from our busyness

and task mode.

i confess, i resist often

and see his presence a lot of times as a way to 

actually get MORE things done.

but on the days that i actually stop

and make the most of him being with us,

i get to capture moments like this:

so thankful for those 

"in between" moments.
