Blog vs. Facebook

OK, blog fans. I'm a busy lady these days, and I need to know if my blogging efforts are worthwhile. Here's the deal--I spent time yesterday putting our Nashville trip photos on Facebook, which I know many of you saw. And now I've already spent an hour looking through photos and figuring out which to put on the blog. Are my efforts redundant? I still have SO MANY more to post--since I have hundreds to choose from and so many are GREAT! 

In any case, I'm done for tonight--scroll down to see some new pictures I've added! There surely will be many more to come! 

This is my Facebook profile pic and one of my favorites of Will and I together! Thanks, Mary!

A mom and baby moment. 

Aunt Sarah and Aunt Michelle got Will this cool "Chicks Dig Me" t-shirt. He was so stylin' with his matching shorts and hat! And what a cute dad! :-) 

Chicks DO dig you, baby boy!

A family photo

We tried to get a photo of the three of us smiling at the same time. It just didn't quite happen that way. Guess we shouldn't be doing this at bedtime, should we?! I need to be in a better mood for photo shoots! Hee hee hee... They're cute, even if they're not Christmas card material!

Bathtime for two...

Grammy Mary gave Will and Elliott a bath while the adults were out and about (I don't even remember what we were doing now! Hmm...). The photos that she took are my favorite of the whole trip! Priceless! Will obviously LOVED being up high, watching the action! And I know he loved his bath too!

Sleepy time!

Will feel asleep right in the middle of playtime, and Grammy Mary was there to capture the moment! I think these are so sweet!

Will often studies people's faces with a quizzical/confused look. I think people intrigue him. I sometimes feel like he's psychoanalyzing me! :-)

Cousins!

I wish Will could spend more time with his cousins! He loved seeing his cousin Elliott again when we were in Nashville! I have SOOOOO many pictures of them together (there were many of us taking pictures). It's just so amazing what a difference 4 months makes at this point. Soon, they'll seem the same age! 

Will had a runny nose when we first arrived, but I love this picture anyway!

Will just wanted to feel her face to make sure she was really there! He's used to seeing Elliott in picture, not in "real life."

Elliott's checking to make sure Will's real too!

Time to just chill. That's my boy!

More Will and Elliott...

Elliott loved feeing Will Cheerios. She is already so good at sharing!

Funny hair, cute smile!

They spent lots of quality time together on the floor...until Will's lack of mobility bored Elliott and she crawled away to find bigger adventures!

Knock, knock! Who's there?

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter, everyone! Here are a few shots from today. I made a "blanket city" for Will and scattered Easter eggs around him. He loved them! They were empty, but he doesn't know the difference! And yes, those ARE palm trees on his pants. Hey, it's in the 30s here for goodness sake--we need a little tropical vibe in our lives!

There will be a few more pictures coming, but the camera's battery died. Stayed tuned! T-minus 6 days until Nashville. Woo hoo!!!!!!!!!

Hooray MSU!

Even though we're way out here in Vermont and Justin's a Michigan alum, we were rooting BIG TIME for State in last night's game! And what a game it was! We'll be watching tomorrow night's finals too. Will was part of the action for some of the game. He was mesmerized by Justin's animated face and actions, but when Justin started shouting at the game, Will cried! He is not usually afraid of loud noises, but something about Justin's cheering freaked him out! So Justin had to really hold back his enthusiasm and eventually ended up across the street at our neighbor's house, where shouting was allowed! 

For those who regularly use Facebook, these pics will be redundant (I posted them last night on FB). But I know not everyone uses Facebook (hi Jodi!!!!!!!!!!!) and I wanted to share this latest batch of photos. I couldn't decide which pics to post, so there are a bunch. 

Not much else is new...I went for another long run today--I'm up to 7 miles in my half-marathon training!!! May 24th is sneaking up on me! And we're 2 weeks away from the Nashville trip during our April vacation from school. Can't wait! Without further adieu, here's Will...

Decked out in green and white in honor of MSU.

He really had no idea what was happening on the TV behind him. We try not to let him watch TV too often!

Will was very interested in watching Justin's reactions to the game--except for the loud cheering!

Learning how to be a sports fan.

Smiling for mommy. I love it!

Will is thrilled with his ability to handle just about whatever he gets his hands on!

Massive red-eye in this one, but I love how he seems to be in a trance watching Justin!
