They're ba-ack!

My ankles that is.

Not much else is back to normal, but the bod is on it's way to recovery. And for today, I will take pleasure in having my bony ankles back from the bloated swollen last days of pregnancy. I won't even grimace about the mid region...yet...we'll give that a little more time (or a lot...cause we all know it's never ever the same).

Most days I feel like I'm moving through mud. My vocabulary has been reduced to only a few words. I just can't seem to get my head out of the fog to converse with more than a few words. Getting dressed is a major accomplishment. Getting showered, dressed and ready for the day usually needs rewarded by a nap. Seriously, I have to sit down after I get ready because I'm exhausted. Weird how you forget these things when you have a three year laps between children.

I finally got around to downloading some more photos from my camera...only to discover that a lovely finger print was on my lens, thus obscuring a portion of all my recent photos...urggg...little fingers. I'm sad that Crew's blessing day was such a wirlwind that I didn't get all the photos I wanted. Really, I didn't get any. I snapped a couple after I had buckled him in his car seat on the way out the door and then by the time we got home and fed the little guy everybody had changed and was out on their way to the park. Next time I will have to ask someone to be the official blessing day photographer because neither Greg or I kept up with that responsibility.

Anyway, here's a few recent pics.

The only blessing photo we got...can't even see his cute outfit. We'll have to recreate the day and snap a few photos for posterity. (The cute blanket is the handywork of my mom.)

At the request of Tonya (Greg's sis) we took this quickie family photo...Crew wasn't too into it.

Congratulations on your ankles! :)
The boys are ADORABLE! I love the pictures of them together--Cole probably seemed little until Crew came along--it's just really fun to see the big bro/little bro contrast.

Sooo cute! Reminds me of Zach and Scott. So much fun.
I love hearing about the need for breaks and naps after getting ready. I feel the same way and I'm glad it's not just me.
I can't believe the pictures of your boys on their blessing day....really they are identical. Congrats again, your boys are gorgeous and will have so much fun together.

I LOVE the cute onesies! And you look far too beautiful in that family picture. We need to work out a morning when Cole can come over and you can get some rest! That baby-making/baby raising is serious stuff!
