I've been really distant from the site lately, posting only a few pictures of the babe here and there with brief sentences reflecting my mood, or the picture below it. Most of the reasoning behind this is because having a baby, planning a wedding, going to school, and working makes for a ridiculously tight schedule and leaves little time for play on the internet. And the reason that I have been ignoring is that my fiance, Jared, really doesn't like my association with SG. To him it's a lot more of a reminder of how he almost lost me, the period of time that I was most active on the site is when he and I were separated. Trying my best to keep our relationship as less complicated as possible and avoiding fights when possible, I guess I began to associate this website with that too.

Anyways. Long story short (too late?), I wish I hadn't disassociated myself so. There are many things about this website that I truly do not find myself pleased with, but over all there is a wonderful community of people and I am sad to say that I've missed out on many of the smiles that they've created here over the past few months.
So!

A proper update, is in order then, I think...

Jamie is now almost 4 months old, so hard to believe. I can't believe how much he grows and changes every day, both mentally and physically. He's playing with toys, enjoying being read to before turn in, even watching television (he fancies Mickey's Clubhouse and Tigger and Pooh the most...). I've never felt so blessed then those little moments that I realize how much of an impact I have on this little miniature person who is a part of me. Ah, it is the greatest feeling in the world!!!

Here are a bunch of pictures from our family trip to Lake Michigan this month...

Aside from that! I've picked out my wedding dress just recently, and booked the date of the wedding. We are marrying in May of next year, I am so excited Lots of weddings coming up in my family over the next year or so, my brother is marrying this October...then Jared and myself, then my cousin (who was my best friend growing up) and her fiance are tying the knot in July. Lots of love in the air!

Well...my little one's awoken, I didn't get to write as much as I'd have liked but I hope that I'll be around a good bit more.

Cheers
