Ben William Broderick

Back to the blogosphere, after a giant hiatus. So much to tell, so little time. At the moment, our newest and sweetest little man, Ben William Broderick, is not feeling the best, upstairs in his bassinet. He is now 4 1/2 months and when Gracie was this age, I had about a million posts about her every breath. Him. Not so much. Not to say I dont love him as much because he is the sweetest little fella ever!! I am looking forward to posting more pics, documenting what the kids are doing and keeping up with fellow bloggers (Mari and Kelly! Holla;) Here are some pics to kickstart this blogging thing again!

Ohhhhhhh snap. I don't understand this new blogger. How do I get a photo?! Sigh, Im going to bed. Help!!!!!!

Proof of Life


Almost a year later, we are bloggin again!!! What a year it has been. Whew. Here is the breakdown since last blog in April last year: We put our Roaring Fork Lane house on the market in Houston, sold the house in the summer, rented a sweet little house on Red Rugossa, got preggers, went back to corner Brook for Mark and Beths wedding in October, uncertainty about moving home and pregnancy lent us to staying in NL and Justin met us there, he got a new job in St. Johns with Worley Parsons, bought a house, now living in a rental on Pleasent Street and getting ready to move in! Oh! And Im about to have our baby boy in three weeks!!! Yup, lots and lots of mixed emotions, happiness, loss, dreams come true, hearts broken, change is hard! We are super excited about our house by bowering park and Justins work, living close to amazing friends and family and being back in our own province. There has been adjustments with weather and missing friends in Texas, and while I have been missing friends so has Grace which is hard. Right now we are focusing on our new life in St. John's, and I am so thankful that we have had so much support from all around to make this huge adjustment bearable! We have had tons of supper offers, parents doing huge favors all around, and lots of love our way. Oh! Did I mention that my BFF Maria is my new neighbor!?!??! How perfect! eek! Life is crazy right now with our 4th move in less than a year, but we are so happy to be together. JB is loving his new job, Dad and JB are doing minor renos on our house and I still get to stay at home with Grace and baby bro. We have a new routine here which looks like Texas but not sooooo much. She goes to 'school' 6 hours a week at the childrens center (hippie fab), she goes to gymnastics, the library, etc. She is missing her Texas friends, Mila, Suri, Sam the man, Kar Kar, William, Jonah etc etc etc...but she has Marias beautiful boys Gabe and Jude to keep her runnin! So, we are here, going through lots of changes but we are facing it as a family with lots of love. Keep checking back, I'll post pregs pics and ones of our house! XO
