Ok, I haven't died...

But my computer did!! The screen of my poor, cherished Mac is broken and has been for months now!! And it's not a cheap fix. If we go to a Apple store nearby it will be close to $800, and with everything else we are doing around the house and in preparation for the new baby, that just is not happening! So Mark found someone to do it out of state for MUCH less then that. But still, money is money and while other things are getting done, I'm stuck with this little Netbook. At least its something. But since I'm so obsessed with my pics, I hate posting them on here without tweaking them to my liking before hand. This computer has no editing software. Ugh, so I have been trying to keep up with the word part of my blogs, I just don't post them until the corresponding pics are ready to go with them! So if all of the sudden I have posts all the way back to Labor Day, I'm sorry!! Its a bit of a journal for me, so I'm sure you understand!

But in the meantime, all is good on the family front. Mark's great, Cam's great and the little baby in my belly is doing great as well! I'm doing pretty good, too!! (Kinda great, but I don't want to jinx anything!) We are starting to work on a bunch of things around the house in prep for the extension of our family! We are re-doing our kitchen and our first project was adding a dishwasher, not only a new dishwasher, but our FIRST dishwasher since we bought this house!! Can I just say I'm never going back to hand washing dishes again?? Sigh, what took us so long :)

I'll be back soon, just hope my computer gets fixed soon!!!

Then and Now

I can hardly fathom the fact that it has been a year since I took my first Fall pictures of Cameron. When you look at the pictures of him last fall, he actually looked like a baby. He was 7 or 8 months, depending on the pic. This year, he is so not a baby. He's a little boy. And an awesome, adorable one at that!!

So, with that in the back of our minds, we decided to take Cameron to the Big Apple for caramel apples and Adams Farm to pick our boy a pumpkin. Last year we went with our best friends, The Kenney's so we had to go with them again this year. They are even expecting their second baby about 3 weeks before us!! We seriously did not plan this or the last ones! Cam and Ash are a month apart. Maybe this is the start of a tradition?

So here are some Then and Now pics of the kids.

Sigh. Pregnant hormones suck!
