This is a picture taken over Eric's Spring break. Seriously.

Eric and I have learned a lot of snow and it's various qualities this year. Snow can be slippery, as Eric's bum and back can attest. Snow can be heavy, as our sore muscles can attest. And snow can be fun, as our sledding expeditions can attest. That being said, we are ready for the snow to leave. I'm real tired of my winter jacket. I have loved it. My jacket has been warm, it has been waterproof and it has accompanied me through the streets of South Royalton for many (too many) months. However, I have been boycotting the wear of my winter jacket since the official arrival of spring. This has proven to be a little harder than I anticipated and once, only once, I caved. I'm sure any fashion show would cringe at the amount of clothes I wear when out-of-doors...it's just layer upon layer upon layer. Oh well. I stand by my boycott 'cause Spring is coming!

This is another picture taken over Spring break during one of our trips to Babies R Us to test out some baby gear! I think Eric looks like a concerned, but still chill, papa!

Joining the Bandwagon

Hey Ya'll

Apparently creating a blog is now a prerequisite to having a baby, so we have decided to jump on the blogging bandwagon. Unfortunately we don't have any pictures to post just yet. Our Cannon Rebel is having trouble focusing on the 3 inch, disproportionate child inside of Annabelle. But, soon we will have some visual material: an ultrasound photo, a bulging tummy, and eventually a little person. Soon, the baby will take the stage of this blog and you won't be bored with the life tales of Eric and Annabelle in Vermont. If for know other reason, it simply doesn't take long to capture our current life in prose. Annabelle's daily activities consist of peeing between 400 and 500 times and trying to limit the chronic pain in her right butt cheek. My life consists of class, the library, and a bittersweet relationship with snow plows. Other than that, we are waiting for the third Carter. We are really excited and look forward to sharing our joy with all of you.

Happy to Join the Blogging Community,

Eric, Annabelle, and Baby Carter

Wait! I was just informed we do have a visual for you. Here it is:
