Ch ch ch ch changes!

Gosh, the last time I updated this

• We lived in Orlando
• Bentley was an immobile 9-month-old
• We were a family of three

Oh how things have changed! Get a glass of lemonade and a comfy chair--you're in for a massive update.

This little stud is now 13 months old! (I hope to find the time to do a separate post about his birthday party, it deserves it) Mister B is walking--make that running--all over the place. He eats like he's about to go to the electric chair. He loves Elmo and Super Why and he is the most loving, compassionate child I have ever met. He is learning new things everyday and he never ceases to amaze me with some new skill he's mastered. He loves to give hugs and "kisses" and is very good at sharing. More than anything, he loves playtime with his Daddy. He is truly Taylor's mini-me. It's so cute.

Speaking of mini: here's a sneak peek at our new little peanut! This was taken at 6 weeks, I'm now 12 weeks along. (Hallelujah for the end of the first trimester! The light at the end of a very nauseous tunnel!) My pregnancy has been very similar to the first one: nausea, exhaustion, insomnia, and lots of food aversions. But, with one minor difference: NO TIME TO REST! I have had multiple experiences where I'd have to hold Bentley in one arm and barf in the sink, all while trying to talk/sing to him because he was crying. It's been rough, I'm not even gonna lie (especially with Taylor gone all day at work). But I know it'll be worth it at the end. November 11th--get here faster!

This is the biggest change in our little family right now. Taylor's spending the summer working for Vivint. So at the beginning of April, we packed up our necessities and moved to Ft. Lauderdale! So far it's been wonderful getting to know new people and a new area. There have definitely been some bumps in the road (having your husband come home after 9pm every night definitely takes some adjusting to; and a completely commission-based income can be stressful), but we are determined to do everything we can to make this a positive, prosperous experience. 

So, overall, the Smiths are doing well. We're growing and changing in every imaginable way and looking forward to the future and all it holds for us.
