maybe happiness didn't have to be about the big, sweeping
circumstances, about having everything in your life in place. maybe it was about
stringing together a bunch of small pleasures

Wow! There really is no excuse for the lack of blogging... O wait I have a baby. I think that will work. ;)
There is no way to catch you up on everything since March.. sorry.
We have a beautiful baby girl AnnaCathryn (AnnaCate). LOVE LOVE LOVE There is nothing in this world more beautiful than having children of your own. She is the most amazing person!.. even if she is a fussy baby who at 3 months still gets up at least every 3 hours during the night! :) She is growing like crazy and is just ahead of the curb! We are so proud! At two month she was rolling over from her belly to her back and now at 3 months she has rolled from her back to her belly, laughed and sat up on her own (for about 30 seconds:). Freakin rockstar right?! I cant even begin to express in words the amazing father Tyler is! There really is nothing cuter than a daddy and his little girl! He loves his "sweets".
Tyler is so great about letting me dress her and buy her all the cute things. When we found out we were having a girl I told him we will go broke in baby cuteness because I knew I wouldnt be able to stop shopping!
Speaking of shopping... UGH baby weight! Girls! How do you get rid of it?! I gained 55 lbs with this little one. Holy Freakin Cow right?! I have lost 40 lbs but still have 15 baby to go and another 5 for myself. I hear 6 months is when it will start to really shed... we will see! I cant wait... here I come william rast!
before weight :) after :(
In these first 3 months she has done her fair share of traveling. :) When she was 6 weeks we took her on a small plane to San Deigo and went to sea world and such. That was the best she ever did on a trip. I think she likes planes! Which is good news. I see alot of planes in our future! As far as cars go.... its bad news. We usually have to let her scream herself to sleep. Makes for a long 8 hours to Grammy's.
Now its Christmas and I cant wait to have our first Christmas with children! We even did a Christmas card! (that is a big step for me ;)
Anyway we love life with the new LOVE OF OUR LIFE! :)
