It's been too long!

I thought that I would type this up before I had to make a few parent phone calls. It has been almost a year since my last post and going back and reading my old posts reminded me of how much I really liked blogging. Anyways, I had my little Liam and he is now almost 9 months old. I am going to post some old video and some pictures to get this blog up to speed. Anyways, I am now almost back into my old jeans and I feel alot better about myself. James and I have been together for 2 years now and Oh my God what a wild two years it has been. There have been serious times where I thought that our relationship was just not going to make it. Still goes on, we still have very serious arguments, but everything is alright now and I feel like if we can go through all that we have been through together then we are going to be just fine. Anyways, being a mother is the most intense and wonderful experience that anyone could have. I wouldn't trade it for anything. For the first couple of months Liam was here I felt so lost and confused. I thought that motherhood would be difficult (like I knew that this was the hardest job in the world) but I thought that it would just happen and I would magically have all of these maternal feelings and endless energy but I didn't. I was tired and Liam was not an easy baby. He cried all day long (seriously) until two in the morning and then it was up at 5 or 6 to feed him and start the crying all over again (this made it very difficult to bond with him). Those were the times that (sorry if someone thinks I am terrible, but I am trying to be honest here) I just didn't want to be a Mom. I didn't think that I was ready for it or that I would ever ease into it. But it worked out ok. Liam laughs more than any baby but he also screams more than any baby. He can go 0 to 60 at the drop of a dime and he is the youngest old man I know. He loves NPR (next President maybe?) and Jones College (old people music). He also loves Blues Clues and Finding Nemo. He is a walking oxymoron, I think he is just perfect (what parent doesn't think their child is perfect). Anyways, I better stop typing, but will post with some more exciting updates later. I have so much to talk about, but not enough time to do it.
