Back with a new addition!

Hey there.
Well, it is shameful how long I have been ignoring you.  Just shameful.  I promise to post regularly now that we have another little nugget in our home.  Elliott James arrived on 4.20.12 at 9:37, 6 pounds, 14 ounces and 21.75 inches long.  I will spare you the details of labor, but now, 5 weeks after he was born, I can delude myself into thinking that it wasn't so bad.  Seriously, they call it labor for a reason.

Photos are on the way, just looking for the cord, but I do have a funny video of Lucas dancing in the shoe store to tide you over.  He is LOVING being a big brother and is so helpful.  It would be more helpful if he would just be potty trained already, but I'll take what I can get.  I just love that kid.



Elliott is a super sweet little guy.  It is shocking just how much he looks like Lucas at the same age.  One cannot run from genetics, I suppose.  He is chunking up quite nicely, and has already gotten his mommy's unfortunate double chin.  Sigh.  But seriously, I saw a knee dimple today!!!!  He just started to smile this week and his eyes are turning a really sweet blue.  Swoon.

Enjoy these little snuggler sounds!
