Catching up....

Well we are still here!!   Life with two is a lot more hectic, but at 10 weeks in, we are finally getting the swing of things.  I feel like if life were a treadmill, the incline and speed have picked up - but it's still the same motion...  (of course that's just in time for me to return to work....but given that I work from home, the transition will not be that dramatic - thank God!)

Caitlin is a sweet little thing.  She has started smiling and cooing to us, and it just melts my heart.  Logan is a great big brother -- and for the most part he loves her to pieces and likes to help as much as he can.  Of course, he is also 2 years old now - so it's not all rainbows and butterflies all day long :)  The boy likes to make lots of decisions (what to wear, what to eat, what to do) - and while we try to let him be involved in making them - it's not always possible.  So we are dealing with some tantrums, but he also has moments where he is just so sweet.  I guess that's what it's all about now -- testing boundaries, but still being a loving little boy! 

In some ways, it's hard to believe that only ten weeks have passed, and in other ways it feels like she was born just yesterday.  In the last ten weeks we have celebrated two birthdays (Logan's and mine...and we've sung "happy birthday" millions of times!), celebrated Easter, enjoyed a fun Easter egg hunt with neighbors, traveled to GA to meet SB's side of the family, and hosted grandparents and aunts and cousins galore!! 

Here's a big download of some favorite shots in the past 10 weeks.  I hope to keep this up to date more than I have - but no promises :)
