New Year, Fresh Start

Happy New Year!  It's been a long time since I've written anything but being a new mommy and having a, well let's just say not an easy baby, has been a lot more work than I ever thought it would be. (That statement is not be taken as I thought it would be easy in any way at all.)  Finding the time during the day to sit down by myself and write even one sentence has been more than difficult.  Plus any extra time I had was usually spent doing laundry, cleaning, or doing something that is so precious to me now, sleeping.

Because it's a new year I would like to start fresh with this blog.  I want to be better about posting at the very least weekly (I'm shooting for something more like every other day).  And since it's a new year I should recap last year, or at least the last 4 months which have been the most important for us!

Rhett is now 4 months old....CRAZY!  Time has seriously flown by!  I have returned to work, reluctantly, and wish every day that I was home with my little man!  I feel like I half-ass everything I do now...my job, being a mommy, being a wife...it's hard to find the balance.

Here are some fun photos to recap the last 4 months:
Was given the most amazing gift ever!

Love him to pieces!


Went to a pumpkin patch

Had a fun Halloween!

Rhett turned 2 months and started smiling and making noises

Saw great grandpa and great grandma Eaton

Had dinner with my best friend

Went to Rhett's first hockey game

Had a yummy family filled Thanksgiving

Got the cutest, biggest smile out of our little man

Rhett turned 3 months and started holding his head up and eating his hands

Got family pictures done

Best present ever!


Went and saw Christmas lights

Saw Santa and sat on his lap at our Family's Christmas Eve get together

Matching PJs for all of the cousins, you can't see it but they all have their names embroidered on them

Had the best Christmas where Rhett was spoiled to pieces

He got a wagon from his Auntie Koko

Rhett turned 4 months and started holding his toys, loving his Bumbo, and drooling like crazy!

Rhett had his first trip to the beach where he was looking like a stud

And he smiled like crazy for daddy!

In two days it's back to work and real life.  Oh how I wish I could stay home with my baby all day every day!
