So many new babies!

So, yeah, it's been awhile. I get it. I know. We'll move on- and just get back in the groove of posting and let this become more of a regular thing. (We'll see.)

Since I've last posted, three very important women in the lives of the Swords have gotten pregnant and had babies! Sarah, my sister had Liza Jane Burns; Lisa, my soul-sister, had Mollee Kate McClain; and Jen, my friend who lets me be myself at work, church and home, had Graham Joseph. (Let's not forget that Henry Hite also joined our little Bristol family last September!)

All three babies have been held extensively by a Katie and two of whom (Graham is still very new, you see) have been kissed by a Branch. It's amazing how much a kiddo can change in an amount of time that seems to have barely elapsed. It really feels like B was that small just a few months ago... I truly hope Branch can roll around his little life with these little guys firmly a part of it.

Speaking of B, he's such a little boy now. He wants his "shoos-on" (sounds like one word) so he can go "ou-syde"... and he even tells me this in the middle of the night. Oh, yeah, AND we've moved since I posted last, too! The Swords have moved over to a house in my parents' neighborhood- and are still getting situated. It's porch and patio-tastic and allows for dog and toddler exploration for sure.

I think Parker and I are having a year of change and transition. Between getting 612 ready to sell, and moving in our new house, amongst all the new babies and all that goes with them, we've been moving at a pace I'm not in a hurry to continue. I'm working out and running a lot, and I think that's helping me deal and handle the stress and anxiety about all this new-ness. Sometimes I am just too busy to just BE. I don't think P and I have had a moment to do that since last fall...
