back into the blogosphere!

well in the longest break i think i've ever taken from my blog:  we had a baby!  and we cannot get enough of her.  and although everyone says, "you won't know what you did without her," that's entirely untrue.  i know exactly what we did without her!  we went out to long relaxed dinners, we sat on the porch and drank wine uninterrupted, we paid more attention to cleo, and we spent less money on diapers.

but it is so worth it.

Hello World!

she's such a fun smiley baby, our little bird.  and we're starting to get a few more laughs and giggles out of her too which is really fun :)

so i decided to start blogging again.  there are at least several sets of adoring grandparents so i'm guaranteed at least a few readers ;)  i'm also planning on getting back to cooking dinner at home and a few photography projects as well, so i plan on sharing all that here too :)
