I keep saying it, but it's shocking how different life is for me now. I'm not someone who sits still well, and, up until I got into the nesting stage of pregnancy, I don't think I had ever had a day where I had stayed inside for the entire day unless I was sick. Now, however, I have been getting out about once every other day. It helps being in a house--for some reason there is so much more to do than in an apartment. But the hassle of getting out is still a little overwhelming. I know it will get better and feel more doable, but for now, getting out to see Daddy and take a walk in the park is quite an event. I've also noticed a change in what we listen to and watch. Not that we watched anything terrible before, but swear words certainly stand out in movies a lot more than they used to. And my Diana Krall and Reliant K standby CD's in my car (the two that seem to cover every mood) have been replaced by Raffi. They aren't bad changes (personally, I love Raffi, and drive Josh nuts singing Baby Beluga), it's just different. Even now I'm realizing that I have to wrap this up, as Iris' nap has bought me free time to get a couple of things done! My time is no longer my own!

Happy (late) Halloween!

I cannot believe how much she has grown! From the moment she was born Iris was truly amazing. I never expected to be moved so much by this new little person, but I am. I love her so much and can't get enough! I know taking care of her must be really tough sometimes, especially when you have no space and cannot get away from the crying, but you have just started an amazing journey with Josh. You guys have truly been blessed and I know you will stick through any tough time because you two are so close. Please call me if you ever need some girl company. I always like a good excuse to go shopping or get pampered. You have to still make some time for that you know. Love ya! ~Aunt Rachael
Woo hoo! We made a cameo!
Seriously, though, she's adorable!
