Okay, I'm Back

Sweet Blog, I've missed you but needed the break. Life got the best of me, I bowed to the busy-ness, catered to the craziness, and something had to give. More about all of that later, here's a quick update:

October, 2009: My last blogpost. Lauren turned 2!

November, 2009: Noah turned 4!

December, 2009: We drove, yes, DROVE, 17 hours to Florida with two toddlers and a 6 month old to visit my whole family for Christmas. It was so worth it!


January, 2010: I got a promotion to Regional Director of Central Texas within my organization. It kind of cracks me up that I'm like in charge of a bunch of stuff.

February, March, April, May, 2010: Very stressed by the new position. Went on lots of dates with Greg, changed innumerable dirty diapers, became chair of the social committee in Sunday School, started potty training Lauren, changed innumerable dirty underwear, interviewed and hired a part-time nanny, signed Noah up for soccer, went to all games and practices, signed the kids up for swim lessons, became generally very tired.

June, 2010: Celebrated 10 years with the best husband imaginable, and went on a ginormous cruise to the Caribbean without the children. Also, battled the 'tweens and saw the midnight showing of Eclipse on June 30th. Of Course.

July, 2010: Went on my 10th annual College Girls' Retreat Weekend and had such a great time, then came home and celebrated Chase's 1st birthday...today!

(I don't have a picture of Chase's birthday quite yet, but we're having a party for him in a week and a half so I will do a special post for him then).


I just realized that in the time I've been gone from blogging, I could've had a baby. I'm glad I'm blogging now rather than nursing an infant and making ice packs for my lady business...

Glad to hear you are well. Sounds like a busy year. Congrats on your new job, isn't that something when you are actually in charge. You can't help but think...they let me do this, huh?!?!

Can't wait to see some more pics!

So proud of you for blogging ... I can't seem to do it anymore. I need to leave time for more important things ... like seeing Eclipse again :)

OMG. I just caught up on your blogs. It completely cracks me up that you wrote "lady business" in a blog recapping your life over the last ten months.
