    Hey my fellow hoarders! I apologize for dropping off the face of the earth a while back. Life just got busy and had to step back for a bit. Not too much goin on out here in the pines except two little changes. Over the past year and a half we've added a 625sq ft addition to our house, and added another little baby piney to the family in the middle of it all (our kitchen cabinets were being delivered while we were in the hospital delivering piney #2) haha. To say life's been busy is an understatement but it's been good. I hope you're all doing well and had a wonderful Christmas . I'll try not to be such a stranger in the future. Here's a pic of my little pineys

    Holy cow, is piney #1 ever growing up fast! 5 going on 15 may be an accurate description! You have to stop staying away for those extended periods and shocking all of us with current pics as it takes awhile for our memories to comprehend!

    Congrats on Piney #2! Is that it now? One of each and done? :D

    Pics of the addition would be nice too....(hint hint)

    Glad you're back!

    Welcome home Smokinpiney it seems like just yesterday when you were showing her baby pictures. It was probably about 2 months ago I looked to see when you were on last. Congrats on the new arrival

    Welcome back Smokinpiney Great pics of the little pineys except the oldest isn't that little anymore. Yes, one minute they are crawling on the floor and the next they are going out the door on their own adventures.

    No way that can be little piney we talked about here a while back. It can't be 5 years! Can it?

    Congratulations and please don't become a stranger again. We missed you.

    yea she's growin like a weed. She sure has some spunk these days but I can't complain, she's a darn good kid and a great big sister. Two's enough for me but if you ask the mrs she might tell ya otherwise lol.
    I'll be sure to throw up a post about the addition soon!

    Locust Post thanks! good to be back .
    Chaz thank you!
    Woodwidow it's crazy how fast they grow. Piney #2 is on the move these days. He started walking around 11months and now there's no stopping him. Hope you're doing well!

    Welcome back. I too was less active for a few years. And still not as much as I once was. I try to make it a point to drop in often now though.

    I need to start more threads and not just pile everything into the what's going on thread!

    Congrats on the edition and the new one.

    Welcome back Piney! I almost emailed you the other day to check in. You must have sensed that! I absolute can't believe the oldest in that first picture is, baby piney, when the last picture was taken on your porch! Wow... and piney #2 CONGRATS!

    Great looking addons, well I guess you needed it with your family growing!

    What else is new?
