Hello World.....or the 3 People Who Still Read This (I Heart You).

Okay, I know it's been a while. A really long while, and to be honest the thing that bothers me the most about not blogging is that I've got about a thousand chicken pictures backed up that I'm longing to showcase. I know, it's sad. Several months of not blogging and the only thing I care about is showing you chicken pictures. My gosh somebody slap me.

We are completely moved into the new house now. I haven't taken any pictures yet, but I'll get around to it eventually....probably when we're ready to move again. I have to say, after living here for a month, I'm in love. We were really skeptical about this house for a few reasons. One: it only has three bedrooms so Hayden and Mariah have to share. Two: there's this big awkward space right when you walk in the front door that we can't figure out what to do with and we definitely don't have enough furniture to put in it. Three: It has a smaller yard than our last place and we value a big yard. All three points have worked themselves out though. The room sharing has actually been quite fun for the kids. I thought having them share a room would be a sleep loss nightmare (for me), but Mariah is a heavier sleeper than I thought and has so far slept through all of Hayden's nightly strolls and potty breaks. The bonus room has turned into a temporary piano room/play room, which when we're having a good day is almost magically wonderful...like something from a movie, And the smaller backyard has proven that quality is better than quantity....what can I say, I appreciate mature trees and SHADE.

I don't have any pictures to display right now since per my facebook status I am out a computer for a while and am borrowing Helmut's to make this long overdue post, but hopefully something soon.

Also, we took the kids to see Toy Story 3 today and it was hilarious. Mariah didn't quite make it to the end, but Hayden was still jamming popcorn in his mouth as the credits were rolling. As far as scary goes, i don't think it was as scary as the first and will probably be my favorite of all 3 of the series.

  1. Yay! I'm so glad you love your new house. I can't wait to see pictures!
    Now that you mention it, Juliana wouldn't have touched a toy afterwards if she had seen the first Toy Story in the theater. Hehehe. Ah. parenting.

  3. Hi! I just clicked on your blog from MP's page and I was flipping through your older posts. I got to the one about googling spiders and read that you used to live at Camp Eagle. I used to work at Camp Eagle. Can I ask who you are?! You can totally email me your answer so that you don't have to divulge any information here. Email is: medicalwife@gmail.com. I can even give you details about the camp in case you're worried that I'm some crazy stalker who is making things up. I'm really not.

    And also, hilarious stories about your children. My favorite is the, "My house is broken!!!" comment. : )
