Nine months!

It's been two whole months since the last post.   I guess we've had our hands full.  Since the last post, there have been two trips to Kake, a trip to Anchorage, a trip to the ER, lots of motor skill development (crawling, pulling to stand, getting up stairs, and sitting down), the unpleasant discovery of a wheat allergy, countless dirty diapers, poor sleep habits, lots of loads of laundry, and dozens of games of peek-a-boo.  Apart from caring for the little guy (and me), Brent has found some time to get out and hunt.  He's put three deer in the freezer, which will feed us for a good part of the year.  I'm enjoying taking Phin to the pool on Sunday afternoons. I still haven't found the time or energy to start running, swimming, or doing yoga again- but I suppose in time I'll get back into those hobbies. Motherhood, breastfeeding, and work seem to consume most of my time and energy.
Naked dancing. Does life get better than this?

I can't think of anything too profound or sentimental to write here.  Phin is developing into an energetic, charming, funny little boy.  He truly loves music, especially when Brent plays the guitar for him. We wish he would sleep better, but we'll try not to complain.
Enjoy the pictures...

Howdy!
