So, miracles of all miracles! I got all the pictures from the last 5 months uploaded, sorted, and loaded onto blogger - woohoo! I even took advantage of all the walgreens sales recently and printed them too...will such wonders never cease?!? That means I can get on my 2012 "resolution" of updating my blog more often. I'm gonna do a series of catching you up posts, then HOPEFULLY I'll be able to keep up with this bad boy on a more regular basis.
Taking you all the way back to September 2011, here is a recap of Timothy's 2nd-ish month.
Let me remind you I had a c-section and we had assumed that would be the case so we had lined up help for the first 6 weeks. There is good and bad to having company for that long, but it was ultimately a blessing and we are grateful for family who could come and help me recover fully. Deborah, Erin & Grady flew in to meet Tim an stayed with us for a few days. I'll be honest, I was a little overwhelmed at the thought of adding 2 more kids to the mix, but as a veteran mom of 2, Deborah assured me it would be easier and it was! Grace had an absolutely BLAST with her cousins and Aunt Deborah got in lots and lots of new baby cuddles, as any Aunt should. :) While they were here, my stepdad came for a few days and took my Mom home and David's folks arrived for the start of their visit. After they left, we had one day solo before my Dad & stepmom arrived. On a whim, we decided to head back to WV with Dad & Linda when they went home so we could introduce Tim to his Great Grandma and the rest of our family in WV. Here are a few highlights from those few weeks of visits.
