I've been remiss.

But seriously, turns out having a toddler and a newborn is crazy time-consuming. Plus we had an ice storm which knocked our power out for a few days, and also we all got really sick, including Lottie (and a tiny baby with a cough is the saddest thing, let me tell you), and I had laryngitis, and basically I've just got excuses falling out all over the place. So don't hate me for the lack of pictures!


Lottie at two days old, all scrunched up in the ring sling for the first time.


Jim booping Lottie's nose. He's sort of used to her being here now, but still has the occasional fit of jealousy. Also it's apparently funny to make her cry.


The closest I've gotten so far to a picture of Lottie smiling. She has the most ridiculous open-mouthed wonky-eyed grin. You'll just have to trust me on the full scale of its adorableness.


Jim pulling the rugbear out from under Lottie during her three-weeks-old picture because it's hilarious when babies fall over.


And here's to 18+ more years of "IIIIIIIII'm not toooooouching youuu!"
