Baby B!


Clearly I've take an extended vacation from blogging here. It's mostly because my computer is a POS and take sooooo long to download pictures from my DSLR and then freezes when I try to upload those pictures to the blog... So I need a new computer, and I'm bummed to not be using my DSLR as much, but since my phone takes good pictures, I really have no excuse to not be blogging!

ANYWAY - the biggest update is our little DIY project, Alice, arrived at the end of May! She was a healthy 7lbs 3oz, and 20 inches long. I had her at a birthing center and gave birth in the birthing pool. It was an amazing experience - and one that was MUCH harder than I ever anticipated! I'll have to share my birth story at some point - it had its share of excitement!

Pictures from her first month:
