I haven’t been silent for no reason…in fact, I have been silent for one very incredible reason. A reason, I will in no way, shape, or form apologize for 
Here is my reason:
Meet Jack Benjamin Gray – our amazingly beautiful little boy. He was born 10/11/2010 at 4:32 pm – after a very short labor (my water broke at 9am, we were at the hospital and I was in bed by 10am, contractions started, epidural was put in place around 11:30, pushing began at 1pm – halted for about 45 mins since my Doctor was on the other side of town – haha , then after a couple hours…our gorgeous 8lb 7oz miracle was born).
So, long story short…my silence has been due to the fact that for the past five months – my husband and I have been relishing every single moment raising and loving on our son. Parenthood is, in short, pretty amazing! We have been through the sleepless nights (seems like only yesterday) – and now we’ve settled into a nice routine. He’s a wonderful baby – always happy, always ready to smile and laugh, never too fussy (he only whines or cries if he really needs something ie: I’m dirty, I’m hungry, I’m tired, I’m bored…seriously And all in all – we have been blessed with an amazingly beautiful child. Sometimes I sit here and watch him sleep or play or laugh and coo and I think to myself…’I cannot believe he’s really mine!’
So, there you have it – yes, I will be back to blogging what randomness I have for the day, sprinkled with some great photos and or musings I have about life as a mom, and of course more of my creative projects (photography, art, jewelry making, etc), and the occasional rant or rave about any particular subject. For now, I simply leave you with one of my favorite photos from the past five months
Jack at 3 weeks
