Yea, so I've been gone for a bit. Namely an entire pregnancy that turned into a very scary ordeal that ended in daily ultrasounds, severe polyhydramios, an amniocentisis for lung maturity and finally an emergency c-section on 37 weeks to the day. Luckily, polyhydramios has 0% consequences after the birth. So, he's healthy, beautiful and yeah-we somehow won the lottery a third time. I wish it were that 'easy' for everyone who wants it to be.

He's gorgeous! So glad to see a post from you. I'd love to read the new blog as well, if you have one. I know you mentioned switching a while back. How are Cate and Rosie liking their little brother? Congrats!

WOW!!! I've been thinking about you TONS lately, wondering how your pregnancy was going, how you were doing, etc. I was resigned to just digging through my email to send you a little missive to find out after I got back home to NC, but I log in to Reader and find this awesome post! He is gorgeous, just beautiful. Good work, Mama.
Oh, and HAPPY (belated) BIRTHDAY!!
