Ok, I'm a slacker mamma, and the milestones are just burying me. I'm going to post and link to them in the sidebar, so bear with this giant list, taking us from our kiddo's birth up to last March. And don't mind the number signs as bullets. I have no intention of fixing every one of those...apparently blogger thinks I'm just rollin' in free time and extra patience. So number signs we got.
