My only resolution for this new year is to update this more frequently! I use it almost as a baby book of sorts - once my kids passed the one year mark, I barely opened their books. Usually only once a year when they have a check up and/or get vaccinated!
I will admit, my 2011 is probably one of the strangest, busiest, stressful, and finally enjoyable years I have had. My core: husband, kids, sister, mom, friends - well, they kept me grounded.
We added a child to the family. I am now a stay-at-home-mom (SAHM). After two years, we will finally finish the bathroom. Just in time to funnel that money to a larger, more family friendly vehicle.
I will admit part of the reason for the lack of posts is because I fell behind in my monthly babbles. Started out one month behind....then two....then three.....now it is 2012. I should have just started back at my present and filled in the gaps if I felt like it. But I am neurotic - I like order, balance, deadlines, etc. Even if you don't see it when you look at me - it is there, it is just covered up by anxiety of letting one ball drop and not being able to get back into a rhythm. Then I try to ignore the elephant in the room, which works for awhile because I am getting quite tolerant of him. Until one day - POP!, my brain starts to leak of our my ears because I can't take it any longer. Overdrive, mixed with my awesome idiosyncratic quirk of only sleeping 4-6 hours a night, gets the job done - whatever is bothering me. I am working on this...baby steps! So goes this post. I skipped half of 2011. Progress!!
