Test, Test, Is this thing on???

I don't know if there is anybody out there who might be reading this, as my posts have been few and far between. The deal is that there has been so much going on around here and blogging and computer time is very low on the priority list.

Let me explain. I am in an unfamiliar season. I am in a season of stability - and am learning how to navigate and determine how to set our home and life up. Huh? Does that make any sense? Well, In the past three years I have either been a newly wed, pregnant, a new mom, financially strapped, moving, pregnant and then a momma of two! That's a lot of changes. And in all of that, there has been little time to really determine and establish a lot of things. For example: Our decorating style. What and why we use what we use. (rooms, storage, stuff) Where does it all go? And what kind of routine works for the boys and I? For some strange reason I thought that all of these things just kinda plopped into place. Not so. It turns out I am going back to basics 101. And now, for the first time in three years, I am not pregnant, am getting some good sleep, and have more stability than I've had in a long time. Sigh. It's a good feeling.

And boy, is it hard work. To be honest, there are lots of days that I just fall into bed and am asleep before my head even hits the pillow. There is no energy or time left to blog.

Another thing that is going on around here is that I am trying to shed after baby weight. It's a hard thing - and yet one I am determined to overcome. I have joined Weight Watchers - and through that, I've realized that the food issue is really a heart issue. Enough said on that for now. Perhaps there may be future posts on this issue?

In all of this, I haven't had a lot to say on the blog. I know "blog mode" when walking through everyday life and see or hear something and I immediately start writing a post in my head. It's just not been there.

Until this weekend. And, funny, all of the sudden, I have a whole list of posts stewing. So, maybe I'm getting back into my blog mode. Maybe it's the outlet I need in the midst of all that's going on. I don't know.

Well both of my little men just woke up and need something. Little One was searching for his new Thomas engine "will you help me?"and now is singing row row row your boat and strumming daddy's bass - and Baby Brother is waiting oh so patiently for his bottle. Gotta scoot.

See you soon! :)
