I can't believe it has been almost a year since I have posted on here. I have really missed blogging! The last year has brought a few changes, most notably the arrival of my son, Boden Hardy Mariano! He came into the world on April 2, 2010 at 11:16pm weighing 6 lb. 15 oz. and 19.5 inches long. After a quick stay in the NICU (thanks only to my high fever during labor, he was perfectly fine), he came home and we have been enjoying our time together ever since! Being a mom has been everything I hoped for, and so much more. Here we are just after Boden was born...
I am still doing the vegan thing. During my pregnancy I found it very easy to maintain a healthy diet. My midwife said I had the textbook healthy pregnancy (perfect weight gain, fundal height, etc.). I never had morning sickness and I felt pretty good right up until delivery. Here's a photo of me and my belly just a week before Boden's birth...
I am going to attempt to visit some blogs in the several weeks and catch up a bit. Not sure at this point whether I will start blogging again, but I'll at least update with some cute baby photos every once in awhile :-) Hope you are all doing well!
And since I'm a proud mama, here's a few more pictures of my sweet baby boy!

You were definitely missed (hooray for feed readers!)! I'm sure your new life as a mama is pretty busy but I really hope you can find the time to return to blogging. I was so excited to hear about your pregnancy when Ruthie posted about it. Congratulations my blog buddy! Boden is such an adorable baby (and I love his name)!

Congratatulations!!! I am so happy for you! He is so adorable. It's good to hear you are well and doing great! I was a bit concerned because I didn't know what happened to you and was afraid to e-mail you. How amazing your life is going to be with Boden.
I can't get enough of Boden's huge blue eyes! Handsome devil! Congrats, mama!
What a beautiful reason to have taken some time off from blogging. Welcome Baby Boden and congrats to his parents!
You are both beautiful and you look so happy! Boden's big eyes are gorgeous! He looks like he's getting ready to do some crazy karate move in the picture with the striped onesie :D
**gasp** Boden is beautiful! And he looks like such a happy baby ^_^ Glad to hear your pregnancy/delivery went well, and welcome back to the blog!
Wow! Congrats on the new addition to your family!
Congrats on the birth of your precious little boy!!! We briefly met in San Francisco at the Veg News launch party in 08. Our twin boys were born only a month before little Boden. I hope everything continues to go well in your new journey through motherhood.
