Ugh. I have not been a creative mommy lately. Life, with all it’s twists, turns and detours, has gotten in the way of blogging. It’s also kept my loveable toddler’s chubby fingers away from the keyboard. He’s been a very busy beaver…hence the lack of blog entries. The business of turning one-year old is hard work!
Given my lack of creative juices at the moment, I think I’ll just summarize the past 8 months with a few photos. It’s been a super busy time, with August turning one, me starting a photography business (www.robinlerner.com), Chuck seeing longer days at the veterinary clinic…
Oh yeah – and me getting pregnant. It’s a girl. She’s due in March 2011.
Other than that, life is pretty mellow. 
On April 17 my baby boy turned ONE!! He celebrated with homemade chocolate cupcake. (made with love by his mama)
Cake, meet face.
A few weeks later we had a fun farm-party (complete with mini-petting zoo courtesy of our lovely neighbors). It was a joint birthday celebration – August and his buddy Eli were the stars of the day.
Then summer kicked into full swing and August continued to get cuter. He’s good at that.
For Halloween Augs was a giraffe. The best part about that was the chubby butt with which the costume came equipped. Not as cute as Augers own hiney, but cute nonetheless!
August enjoyed hanging out with his cousin Maggie (two months his junior)
Falling leaves made for good fun too…
August learned to walk (stutter steps started around 11 months…full walking at 12 month), August continued to talk (stringing two words together around 18 months – “All Done” and “Chocolate, please” are two faves).
Life, as always, is good.
