back by popular demand!

well, popular demand of one person! (you know who you are.)

the blog has been taunting me. i feel so guilty for not keeping it updated. and i don't even know why. i have started many posts, to get back in it, but i don't finish or post them.

a lot of things have happened since we went to the zoo. (what a random place to stop blogging!)
such as:
* moved to a new house
* feels like we're still moving in, as there are still rooms to be painted and decorated.
* went on vacation to south padre
* we painted, and then painted some more.
* went on another vacation to galveston
* did a lot of mundane things that equals our life, which i love.
* oh yes, we added to our crew!

yeah, we have a second child now, and our blog doesn't even know about him!
so, blog, meet JEFFREY KADE NELSON!

we like him. like a whole lot.

he was born on september 24th, 2011 at 6:39 am.
he weighed 8 pounds 12 ounces.
he was 21 inches long.
he likes to eat. a lot.
he is 6 weeks old and now weighs 13.5 pounds. (do the math)
he is just now getting on a schedule - yes it has taken 6 weeks.
he kind of had a rough 5 weeks, but he is doing much better now.
he has really cute hair, but it is starting to thin, which makes me sad.
he is now in a size 1 diaper, and i am trying to finish a box, but we really need to move to size 2 now.
he is absolutely adored by his big sister, jillian.

see?

but sometimes, she "loves" him so much that it makes his face look like this: 

(which makes her face look like "yeah, i like him, even though it scares him daily.")

so, our life has been a little hectic lately, but we are settling in to a family of four quite nicely.
i think it suits us well.





this makes for the world's worst "life update" of the last several months.

i still haven't decided if i will try to back track big events, we shall see.

for now, this will do!
