It’s been a good, solid 6 weeks with no blogging. You know what? It was great. Don’t get me wrong—I love my blog. But after such a jam-packed year in 2009, I just needed to unplug for a bit. I’ve been MIA on Facebook and Twitter, too, so don’t take it personally!
Instead? I’ve been enjoying the holidays, chilling with Katie and Carson alot more, and getting things ready for 2010. It’s good to step away occasionally. Helps put things into perspective. It’s going to be a crazy-good year professionally and personally. Can’t wait to tell you all about it in the coming days.
Here are a few pics from Katie’s birthday recently. The cake is from our friend and genius cake artist Brandi Romines. She owns Happy as a Lark Cakes. There’s a clip at the end with Carson and I singing Happy Birthday to Katie. Carson has some mad vocals. Enjoy!

Happy birthday Katie (you’re 3 days older than me ;)). Good to “see” you back, Shaun!
Beautiful cake.

I was wondering where you went… The equivalent to a vacation, eh? I guess it will be like my maternity leave…I’ve already blocked off the dates on my calendar.
But I’m sure I’ll still be blogging precious pictures of our little one!
