Update...

So we've been without the internet for 5 days! Apparently our modem went out and while anxiously awaiting the arrival of a new one, I realized how often I get online when I'm bored. I'm so happy to be back in action! :)
Wow, having 2 kids is a lot of work!! Hats off to those of you with multiple children - leaving the house is like a circus act! If you know me, I have a hard time staying home for long so we've been out playing hard with the help of family (thank-you).

We hit up Discovery Gateway twice in the past 2 weeks. The place is swarming with toddlers, breast-feeding moms and double-strollers (so naturally I fit right in). All the moms have learned it's a great place to entertain the kids (get a break) and wear them out for a good, long nap (get another break). It's brilliant and quite fun for the little tykes! I now have a season pass so let me know if anyone is ever interested in joining me.

I can't believe it's already been 1 month since our little Mason joined us. The last few weeks have been a blur which is probably due to the major lack of sleep! He's quite the tempermental child, just like his dad. If he isn't eating or being held, he's wailing. I've become a huge fan of the Hot Sling, which I was hesitant to buy because of the hefty price tag but it's been worth every penny! Here's a picture of the little guy all nuzzled up in it - just like he's back in my belly. My mom and I decided we're going to make a bunch so you can all have them for a fraction of the price. :)

First of all, the new 'title picture' if that's what you wanna call it, is straight out of a Ralph Lauren photo shoot for kids.
You all look adorable and happy, sleep or no sleep. Glad so see the fam's doing well!
