I think about blogging just about every day, really I do! But between feedings and catching naps when I can, I can barely find my way to the shower, let alone the computer! But I miss chatting with all of you, and wanted to check in to let you know I am still alive!
I forgot how all-encompassing having a newborn is. But today I got out of the house for a few hours all by myself, and went shopping for a few things for Henry's room. Girls, I stood in the middle of the store and felt completely lost! What has happened to my decorating mojo?
So in a few days I hope to be able to post a few photos of Henry's nursery to get some help from all of you...maybe you can help me get my mojo back! In the meantime, here's one photo to show you what we've been doing the past few weeks. Isn't my husband the cutest dad in the world?
More to come soon...really!

Hang in there! You are tired...your home is beautiful. It will all come back. :)
Awww, yes, he's the cutest dad! And little Henry's so tiny and precious! And don't worry, your mojo's not gone, it's just hibernating. ;) I'm so glad you're getting to enjoy that sweet little boy!
I remember those first weeks...so, so tired. Hang in there...it only lasts a little while and then he'll be running the house.
How extremely precious your boyS are!!! Please take time to be the mama of a newborn. This season will pass before you know it. Shower definately comes before blogging! Take care of yourself and enjoy...

Glad things are going well. I was just thinking of you yesterday.
Your mojo will come back. plenty of naps and time with you new little one will help. You will be back with mojo before you know it.
Henry is tiny and precious and adorable! You are too tired to have any decorating mojo right now--I find it amazing that you did a blog post. Get some rest, and we'll see you soon!
Take your time! What cuties!

So sweet. Glad y'all are enjoying those two kiddos. Relax, we're not going anywhere & you'll get your groove back soon.
Hang in there! Those first few months are soooo busy! Don't worry -- you will get your groove back soon!
Love the daddy/son picture!
Your mojo is all wrapped up in that sweetness. He's so sweet and tiny. :)
We miss you but take your time with him.
That is adorable! Good luck getting your mojo back!
Aw, take your time. It's great to read a new post from you, but never fear, we'll be here when you get back. What you're doing now is so much more important--and totally irreplaceable!
Just sit back and enjoy the new baby smell. He's adorable!
That picture is so sweet!
I KNOW your decor mojo will be back! Wishing you and your family a bunch of love...with a few naps thrown in for good measure!
Take your time .. . but, I do miss you.
Henry is such a cutie!! :) Girl, get yourself some rest and take care of your sweetie-pies :)! We'll still be here whenever you get to post, so take your time and don't worry!
Cutest dad and cutest baby -ever!! Have missed you, but know that you are busy with the kidlets! How's little Miss Nina doing? Take care -- you'll never lose your decorating mojo!
Janet
What a sweet little baby! Just enjoy this time away from blogging and don't worry your decorating mojo will find it's way back! In a year you will look back and wonder how time passed so quickly!
So good to hear your "voice" again. I'm glad you're focusing on your rest and the kids, you've got your priorities straight, girl!
Thanks for sharing the picture, looking forward to more!
How PRECIOUS!!!
Glad to hear you are well. Take your time and enjoy that baby. Personally, I can't wait till you get your "mojo" back! But that is pretty selfish!

I'm glad to see you're resting and enjoying that sweet boy. But, we've also gotta get your mojo back...I'm sure that won't be a problem. Sleep tight!
Love the pix! Missin' ya, Carrie!
What a sweet picture! I love you ceiling fan, btw.
What a beautiful picture! You just need to rest and enjoy that baby. There will be plenty of time for your decorating mojo to return!
What a darling baby! He's so tiny! It's amazine how quickly we forget the newborn stage. Enjoy it...we'll all be here when you get back! Oh, and I'm sure your decorating mojo will reappear as your sleep deprivation decreases
;-)
Awww...What a sweet picture!
Your mojo will be back...Maybe it's due to being so busy...I have not a clue. But once a great decorator always one!
So good to hear from you! Can't wait to see Henry's room. Your house is so beautiful....just look around your home and you will get it back! :)
I was super excited to see a post from you this morning!! Litte Henry is precious...what a great pic of him and your hubby! Love that! Don't worry about the decorating or your mojo! It'll be there when you get to it and the mojo will come back!
Can't wait to see more pics!
Happy Tuesday!
What a sweet picture! Enjoy those moments!
Good for you for taking a break. Enjoy this time you can't get it back!
Who cares about blogging when you have a sweet little baby boy to dote on!! Oh how I miss snuggling a newborn--enjoy these moments to the max!

That is the cutest picture!
Two years ago when I had my baby girl, I didn't know what blogging was or even if it existed. I seriously cannot imagine having the time or energy to blog, but it's great if you can. It's a nice tool to help you put the memories down in black and white! :)
Enjoy your little guy. I'm sure your mojo isn't gone. It's just resting and enjoying your little guy too!
Great picture! I love "Daddy & his baby" pictures!
What a darling picture~I love it. Girl, you've got to give yourself TIME. Your divine decor sense will come back in full force~with more sleep and when he settles into more of a schedule. You know when things have been coming to me? When I'm sitting in a room feeding the baby and have time to look around and think. Just give it time and enjoy his sweetness and tininess while it lasts...easier said than done, I know. :)
You'll have time to find your creative mojo later...right now focus on important things like Naps! :) Your baby sure is a cutie!
He is just such a darling baby! Keep hanging in there. I am finding I have hit the fatigue stage. I am just plain tired all the time. We can do this though!!
Oh my word this picture is PRECIOUS!
Precious picture. You'll especially love it when he's about 17 and bigger than his dad and eating you out of house and home. Don't worry about us. We'll still be here but that baby will get big too soon. Mimi
Sweet Photo Enjoy the time with your little family!
I think it's just a case of NEW MOMMY SYNDROME because you are a wonderful decorator and you still are!!! Henry's nursery will be perfect :-)
-Desiree
look at how tiny and adorable he is!!! Oh my gosh!!!
Henry is beautiful! Hang in there. Being a new Mom can be tiring. But, oh so enjoyable.
A little guy and his Dad. They're probably already telling each other secrets that only men share ... football, baseball, etc. You really got some handsome guys there. Cherish them. xxoo
I was just thinking about you! I love baby & daddy photos. I love to catch my guys taking a nap together.
Yes, he is a cutie, as is Henry. Enjoy these moments with your family! We'll still be here, and newborns don't stay that way forever. :)
You "all" are precious...Im so happy for you ...And "really" I have thought you all often...I look forward to your return to blog land...meme
He is SO very precious! We do miss you but know you are busy! Can't wait to see pictures of the room and more of Henry! ;)
Caaaaauuuuuuttttteee picture!
SMiles,
Jen

nicole
Awwwww, congratulations! I just found your blog. It is very cute. Henry is so precious!
Jen
Oh gosh, Henry is so tiny! Take care Queen Bee. Enjoy this time. We sure do miss you though!
Glad to see that you are still around! However, I don't think anyone will blame you (miss you, yes) if you take some time "off". It is one of the crazy, precious times in your life. Thanks for keeping us posted!
that picutre is great! i love pictures of daddies and babies. it always takes me a few weeks to get back into the swing of things with a new baby take your time enjoy it!
Newborn love! It does fly by so quickly! You'll get your mojo back, but maybe not your memory. I am still searching for mine, I forgot where I left it!
They are both so cute! Try to get some time for yourself every once in a while in order to keep your sanity!
What handsome men you have!
Relax and enjoy, it will return when you're ready.
Jo
What a perfect picture of daddy and son's joy!
This is probably the only time in our lives we don't care if we've showered or slept. Especially when your holding your precious baby. The world couldn't smell any sweeter or be any brighter.
Sweet Wishes,
Sara
Oh how precious!
Happy Valentines Day to ya!
What a sweet picture! You are doing the right thing to take time with your beautiful family. We miss you! Connie
I remember how different and busy life is with a newborn. It takes a while to get in back in the groove of things. What a cute picture of your hubby and beautiful baby!
What a beautiful little guy. I love your blog...I will be back!
Congratulations Carrie!! I've been out of the loop with the move and had no idea you'd given birth.
Welcome to the world Henry :)
rue
That is such a precious picture. We all totally understand, and impressed you've even popped on here at all. :)
He's adorable (Henry... don't think you or MY man would appreciate me saying your hubby is adorable) I'm having fun hanging out with my new little guy too... and I also need a shower ;)
hang in there rest when you can, thinking about you all today!
Henry is such a precious baby!
You are spending your energy exactly where you should be right now. The blog world will be here waiting for you. The newborn stage is fleeting.
Hugs to you. Get some rest!
I am missing your posts so much! You were the first place I went after I turned on my computer! I know that the first couple of months with a new baby are a daze so I understand! I had my first trip to Denver this month...I loved it! I have a cousin that lives in Thornton and she and her husband met us for dinner at Maggianos downtown...yummy!! Have a wonderful weekend!
Love,
Stephanie
Hormones kill decorating mojo, and render you useless in making decisions......just give yourself a little time!
suzanne
Cute daddy/baby pic!
Hope you are still doing well friend!
Oh my goodness, look at that beautiful baby boy!!
How are things going?
-Desiree
Your baby is so beautiful. I remember feeling weird going anywhere after I had my baby, They've been right there with you for so long, you just feel empty, it's good to get out and keep your sanity though. Congratulations, he's defintely a keeper!
Oh yes. Your husband is the cutest Dad in all the world : ).
