We have . . . ANOTHER BABY!  Awwww my GOODNESS BABIES ARE SO AWESOME. 

Elliot Micah Splendiferous Sereneface McAwesome

Seriously, you know how they say babies can’t smile?  This baby has convinced me that that is arrant nonsense . . . after all, if they can come out looking terribly concerned (as Jonah did) and able to make TRAGIC DESPAIR FACE, why shouldn’t their smiling count as a real expression, too, right?  :-)  I swear Elliot smiles about forty times an hour, which I know because I lie around staring at him as much as possible.  :-)  :-)  :-)  (Yeah, it hasn’t exactly been a productive couple of weeks in the writing department!)

And the picture that makes me cry every time (I’m sure I can blame this on hormones for at least a couple of years, right?):

Sweetest big brother ever

Somewhere we have literally this exact photo of me and Kari.

So that’s what we’re up to here, meaning there probably won’t be much blogging for a bit (I’m also trying to finish a manuscript right now, LA LA LA), but when I DO have a moment to blog, I imagine there will be plenty more of THIS!:

Woo hoo baby photos!  :-)  Yaaayyyyy BABY!
