The last time....

The last time I posted I was carrying a baby.  He is now 5 months old, and beautiful.  Life has changed.  In so many ways.

I have wanted to start blogging again, but wow, life is so busy.  So, I won't make promises.  But, I feel like I have so much to say.

I am working on redesigning the blog.  I almost decided on a whole new blog, but I didn't want to lose pieces of me.  I may be changed, but essentially I'm still the same.  I also need to update my blog list, as some of my friends have moved on to pretty bright shiny new blogs.  I am really unsure of my new custom header.... it may still change.  Maybe I should take a poll.

So, what's happened in 6 months?  I had a baby, a sick baby who spent time in the NICU.  He is now healthy and happy and doesn't know anything happened.   Two chest tube scars later, mommy really wears the biggest scars inside.  It's something that I'll never forget.  I am thankful for every smile, every whimper, every giggle.  I did go back to work, and I'm still nursing.  I am still knitting (when time allows!).  I have discovered the beauty of a crockpot and audiobooks.  The house is on hold until we see some warmer weather.  The cats are still with us, and seem to really love little man as much as we do.  Quite frankly, it's a sweet little life.

So, no real promises.  But hopefully you'll be seeing me.

I've definitely noticed you missing on my blog updates but I totally understand that you have slightly more important things to be doing right now. :-)
