the past couple of months have been such crazy, busy, and fun months. thankfully, i have been able to take lots of pictures so i have a couple hefty picture posts. it is also why the period that i am posting is less than a full month. the picture that i did have from the 11th was a picture that i didn’t want to separate from the easter pictures so i will be posting it with those.

there are a lot from last month, though. i don’t usually like to post more than one picture from any certain day to keep a pretty decently modest picture summary but i had way too many favorites to pick just one or two so, in effect– PICTURE OVERLOAD!

as you can see, august is not at all impressed. oh well. wishing you and your loved ones a HAPPY EASTER! hoping that not just today, but every day, you are reminded of how AWESOME our God is.

eat lots of chocolate and marshmallows.

with lots of love,
mark, sarah, and august

seven month pictures! sadly, i was surprised to find that i hadn’t taken a whole lot of pictures this month as we were pretty busy with guests. still some good ones, though! his eight month picture post is definitely going to be a hefty one!

once again, i find myself wayyy behind. but here they are– august at six months.

happy seven months, babuh-boy.

i can’t believe he’s already seven months old. i feel like he should be half that. he’s just growing too fast! *sigh*

i know i have been awful at being an internet mommy with the uploading pictures, letters, and everything else but when i have a few spare moments that i won’t feel like using toward vegging with mark, i will try and get some other updates posted.

this took me FOR-EH-VER. not just to finally get to posting but to sort through, pick out favs, pull off of mark’s computer, pull up on my computer, resize, edit, and upload all the while taking care of baby boy.

this is also a little picture heavy. it’s those holiday pics, man! i only picked out my favs and the ones that kinda’ told a story of his fifth month. i will be updating lots more pictures and complete albums on facebook soon.

while browsing back at the last few monthly picture posts i’ve posted, i noticed that i’m pretty much excusing/beating myself up for doing such a poor job at keeping on top of the picture uploading.

i decided to spare you and myself of that this time around.

behind the link are august’s four month pictures. (you’ve probably seen a few of these on facebook if you and i are facebook friends.)

i have been so bad with this and just updating in general.

i am ashamed!!!

i promise it is because we’ve been having a most excellent time being parents.

it’s so strange to realize that it’s already december and august is less than a week away from turning four months old. you know when people say things like, “i feel like it was just yesterday…”? well, i really, really, REALLY (more than i ever have before) feel like it was just yesterday, (maybe a month TOPS if i’m thinking “literally,” here), that august was just born.

time is moving so fast. if i stop and think of that reality long enough, i’ll probably cry.

thankfully, instead, i’ll post our favorite pics from this month…and probably cry while i’m posting them…

i realize that i am REALLY behind on these. better late than never, right?

i also realize the timestamp on this. i, obviously, cannot sleep. but insomnia is usually good for productivity, so here ya’ go.

the cutest two month old ay-round!!!
