So, I haven't updated this blog in ages. I did try to see how Shutterfly would work and try to share photos, but that needs work as well.
So a quick, quick update...
I got married (YAY!) and moved TWICE! First time to Virginia for James to attend the Virginia Theological Seminary. The second move was cross country to California where we are now. I never really thought I'd end up on the west coast, but it's lovely here.
Just before our second move, I became pregnant, and one month after moving in, I had our little boy L.X. He is such a precious little boy. I love him dearly!!!
California is the ideal area for me to begin raising L.X. I have made friends and contacts that help me raise my son the way I feel most comfortable. It's a bit hippie-ish, but I love it!
I definitely ascribe to the Attachment Parenting lifestyle. We co-sleep (his crib is attached to our bed so he is near and I can nurse him easily), breastfeed, and babywear.
I LOVE babywearing. I have my hands free and L.X. is with me, close and cuddly. While we do have strollers, and I did use one very early on, I sort of find them cumbersome. It doesn't mean that I won't use them ever again. I just prefer having a safe baby carrier that either James or I use to carry L.X. around when we go out.
My very favorite baby carrier retailer, and one of my favorite retailers in general, PAXbaby just reached 10,000 fans on her facebook page and is hosting a great giveaway. Feel free to Like her on facebook and enter!

I'M ENGAGED
I'M ENGAGED!!!!!!!!!! Can you believe it???? OMG! James proposed on our 1 year anniversary! AND he asked my parents for their blessing before hand!! My parents knew about this and kept it secret practically for 2 months!!!!
We went up to PA where it was nice and cold and snowing. He had a plan in mind b/c he was told that the weather wasn't going to be too good, so he planned on proposing inside. When we arrived, however, there was 3 inches of snow on the ground and some still falling and we were like a bunch of little kids all excited about snow. So we unpacked, ate dinner and decided to go look at the stars, but you can't see stars when it's snowing... cloud cover, lol
So we walked over to a field and we're standing in the snow looking at it fall (its about 7 pm) and just enjoying everything. We noticed we could make little symbols in the snow and he made a little infinity sign and I made a heart. He decides to walk away a bit and starts to write something in the snow, and I think he's going to write out our names. So I watch for a little bit and he tells me to do my own thing for a bit b/c it will take a while. I go off and I'm playing and being silly and enjoying snow. He calls me over to read what he wrote when he finishes and hands me the flashlight. I go over and start to read what he wrote and in the snow is "Will you marry me?" !!!!!
I turn around and ask "Are you serious??" and he's on his knees!!! I go over and hug and kiss him and hug and kiss him and still haven't given an answer when I finally say "YES!!!" YAY! so we're engaged and after Feb, we'll start to plan a wedding!!!

I'm beginning to have this wonderful thing happen to me...
It's kinda hard to explain, but I guess the best way to put it is I'mbecoming more and more spiritual. I've always had a strong belief in God and felt very connected through my faith, but now I'm seeing God everywhere. I've realized I don't need to be in the house of God to worship, because we are always in his house. This realization is helping me to become more and more connected to him, myself and the spritual world and it's pretty gosh darn amazing. Becoming intuned with everything is such a unique journey.
