ten on tuesday?

I am just now realizing what a terrible blogger I am. You, of course, already know this (because you follow this blog) but I am way too inconsistent. I will post 5 times in 7 days and then  only once a month.  I just get super overwhelmed by blogging material and then as soon as I get behind, its all over. Does this happen to you?

SO I am stealing an idea from Robin and doing lists on tuesdays. Hopefully this way I can maintain some consistency around here.

1) I started the 365 again. I know it was too overwhelming last time, but I am doing it on flickr now and it is much less stressful not having to keep up with another blog. I really missed taking pictures and without a goal in mind I wasn't doing a great job. The 365 pushes me to be creative and grow in my understanding of photography like nothing else, so when I got the new camera I decided to start again in order to help me get comfortable with it. It also explains why I haven't been posting that much on here.

2) Evie is still doing great. I am starting to get the "you're ready to pop" comments, which happened a little sooner this time than last time, but we are still doing great. :)

3) We had a barbeque the other night to celebrate Evie. (not a shower, as Drew was quick to point out) and it was a wonderful gathering of friends. Kead thought Evie was going to come out at the party though, and was pretty sad on the drive home without her.

4) At the shower  barbeque there were amazing s'more cupcakes.

You have to try this recipe. We used a brownie mix instead of making the chocolate cake part, but other than that it was the same. And it was amazing.

5) I have been getting to do some photo sessions lately. Check out the photo blog for some cute ones of friends and family. Another reason I have been inconsistent on this blog.

6) I have 20+ pregnant friends right now. Seriously. Babies everywhere! I love doing maternity portraits. I think they are my favorite.

7) We are going to Dallas this week for Remke Family Christmas and then driving to Denver on Christmas day for Ludwig Family Christmas. I am super excited about spending Christmas morning in our house and still getting to spend time with both families.

8) Yesterday was St. Nicks day (the day we do our stockings). I asked Kead why we do stockings on Dec. 6th and she said "Cause Pops is from German" :)

9) This year at our annual craft night we are making tea wreaths. I just bought 600 clothes pins.

10) I leave you with a funny story. The other day we heard some serious laughing in the other room. Drew went to see what the girls were doing and came back to report that they were licking each other....on the tongue. awesome.
