It's been a while!

But here I am!

These last few weeks have been rewarding but challenging. We are really trying to stay healthy 'round here, which is sometimes easier said than done!

So here are some basic updates:

-Both boys are signed up for baseball/t-ball. Alex is so excited! He just wants to be on a team- any team! Games and pratices won't start until April, and I'm not 100% sure that the Y won't call and say Alex is too young, but I sure hope they don't! He is so ready to play ball!

- Both Nemo and Franklin have adjusted to life in our house and are loving it. Franklin got a new cage which makes it much easier for him to avoid being eaten by Dillon. Dillon seems to have gotten the idea that he isn't supposed to threaten to eat the guinea pig. Georgia still rules the pet roost 'round here, especially if you ask her.

-Dusty and I are feeling good about life, and are adjusting to our new schedules, especially with help from Mom, who is around to make life less crazy!

-I have given up Starbucks and fountain drinks for Lent, and am putting the money I would have spent on those things towards a project that is building wells and taps for clean drinking water in Haiti. Today I'm donating $20 to the fund, and aside from a massive mocha craving, I am thrilled about it!

I am so sorry I've been a bit non-existant lately in life outside of work and my house. I am really trying to catch up! I'm sure some day this whole working mom thing will feel like the norm. I'm just not there yet.
