Big changes

I can't believe how long it's been since I've blogged.  To be exact, it's been over a year, and in that year, so, so much has changed. For one, our family of 3 is now a family of 4. That's right, since the last time I blogged I've gotten pregnant, had a child, and have seen him grow to a plump and happy 5 months old. We'll touch base on that later. Sadly, our two lovely dogs have left us. One for greener pastures with a family that could take better care of him and one to the dog park in the sky. Poor Toby was old and ready to go. We are getting used to being a no-dog family, but we all have our moments where we miss our pups so much.

Now, back to the whole family expansion thing. Mountain Man and I found out we were expecting in August of 2014. Our due date was April 20th, 2015. We found out in November that baby was a boy and our Bunny girl was so excited to meet her baby brother. Bubba was born 5 days after my due date, on April 25th. He has brought us so much joy in the short time he's been here and we are so happy to have him. We all feel like our family is now complete, although Bunny does ask for baby time to time. Bunny is a wonderful big sister and loves helping me take care of him. Despite our worst fears, she has grown into her role as a big sister and has never held any ill will towards him, which has been a huge blessing. If at some point I get back into regular blogging, I will definitely share his birth story. It is nothing short of amazing.

I think that brings everyone up to speed on what's going on in my life right now. I miss writing, miss sharing my thoughts, & I miss having an outlet. I hope that I will be able to continue blogging on a regular basis again. I am at a place in my life where I am so content with where God has me and I would just love to share that with you. I'm pretty sure that the future of this blog will always look the same.  I will never be in it for money, I will never be in it for fame. I know I am NOT the next Pioneer Woman. But I do know, that God has given me a gift and an outlet through which to share that gift, and I would be honored if He would allow me the time and motivation to do so.
