Im not dead, just keeping busy...

I feel like I haven't blogged in forever.

Oh look at that... its HAS been a while LOL

Motherhood will really put blogging as a last priority. It has been non-stop around here. While Im exhausted(understatement), I honestly love how busy I am.

Robbie is now 10. 10!! A decade since that little man arrived turning me into a mother. Unbelievable! Well, its believable but its surreal! Not a day goes by that I dont stop and hug my Robbie and thank him for coming into my life. He has been enjoying chorus at his school and has been making great progress in school! Next year is his LAST YEAR IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL!!!!!!!!! Oh man. Im so not ready for this!

Jade turned 7 last August. That girl shines brighter then any star! Her personality has really come to the surface the last few months. Really! She has me busting up all the time. But she is totally a daddys girl. Jealous much? Um, YES! lol

Justin... oh my beautiful baby boy. 3 years old now. So handsome. So strong. Such an active kid. He is always GO GO GO GO GO! And SO determined to do things HIS way on HIS time. The battles that I have with him always end in smooches and giggles but Ill be darned if he doesnt make me want to pull my hair out! He starts kindergarten in 2013. I feel like time is just going too fast. Where did my baby go?! Who is this toddler taking over?!?!

Then there is my Lily. My sweet little flower. So beautiful. So small. So smart. Ive said it before, she is the BEST baby by far out of the 4. I have no complaints(other then her gassy baby issues lol girl can clear a room!). She is just so content in life.

Cliff is still working. Nothing much changing with him.

Ive been doing fairly well. I put photography on the back burner until Lily is a little bit older. In the mean time, I started heart in hand crafts. Ive taken up sewing and people actually like my stuff! I have a new addiction and its fabric lol

Ive been trying to keep my days very busy this month. What would of been Haleighs due date is coming up on the 22nd and its just a rough month and reminder of the sweet baby we never got to hold in our arms but now hold in our hearts. I miss her every single day. The pain is still unbearable at times but I know she is with me so I take comfort in that.

I also have Robs angel-versary on the 26th. We lost a good Marine and a good man that day.

The house is coming along great. We have been redoing the pond out back so its been nonstop digging, mud, dirt and slate the last 2 weekends. Huge project but its coming along great.

Thats pretty much it. Life is good.
