My camera-shy garden gnome.
What's a Halloween party without a little after-dinner music, particularly the kind where you play sans costume in your underwear?

My Photogenic Sweetheart
I know, it's been nearly two months to the day since I posted anything. The first trimester of pregnancy number two was a little rough. Nausea settled in around 11 AM and lasted until about 10 PM, and I was so tired I was in bed about as soon as I could be after getting Harper down. Work also got really busy and sapped any extra energy I had, so pretty much all non-essential activities (like blogging, returning emails to friends, exercising, unpacking the remaining boxes from our remodel) came to a standstill in the last few months.
But I hit the magic second trimester (well, plus a few weeks) and I'm finally feeling good again. I even went on my first vacation without Harper a week ago (went to New England for five days with friends), and yesterday I made it to a yoga class. I'm definitely glad to be back in the world of the living.
To celebrate my return to the blog, here are a few pictures of my oh-so-photogenic toddler. She's one cute kid, but man, she takes terrible pictures. Most of the time she won't hold still long enough to get a photo, and she never smiles. This time she did stand still, but she just stood in the middle of the room with her eyes closed. Then she needed to see what was happening behind the camera so my opportunity for a still shot was gone, which is when I got the third "I'm coming to get you" photo. At least she has cute clothes.
By the way, as you can tell from the bear in the pictures, Harper has finally decided stuffed animals are fun, rather than something to stick in your mouth once and then chuck on the floor in disgust. In the last two weeks she's suddenly very interested in playing with her baby doll, and she's taken this purple bear with her everywhere the last two mornings. I had to pry it out of her hands so she could eat breakfast.
