What? I have a blog?






It's been awhile. A long while. Let's just say that I went back to work, and I've spent the last couple months trying to juggle the work/home/mom thing. I think I'm finally getting back into a groove now. I guess you could call it a "groove." Not sure that's the right term.

It's definitely hard to wake up early and get to work everyday. It's hard to get dressed up everyday. I don't have to dress that well, but my workout clothes don't cut it. It's hard to ride in rush hour with my kids, although Parker has somehow made me excited, too, about the river and the trains that we pass everyday. I don't get to the gym everyday anymore, but when I am there I seem to be able to "disappear" into the treadmill.

One of my favorite things about working is that I get to see hundreds of preschoolers dancing and singing to God every week. But, by far, my favorite thing is that my job is teaching me how to be a better parent to my children. I love that! And, I've been inspired. I love being inspired.

For the kid update...

Parker can still see! I'm thankful for that everyday! He is almost completely potty trained- thanks to Buzz Lightyear bribes and lots of oreos. He loves daycare and playing games on my new iphone.

Abigail is walking. Running! She is an emotional wonderful little girl. Her personality is really starting to show. She says, "Hi!" to everyone she sees. She really loves reading books now.

I really am going to try to start blogging again.

Don't beat yourself up about blogging. I have a hard time finding a balance too!! As long as you post new pics every now and then we all are happy. Glad things are getting better. Can't wait to see you all.

Love you all!
