Update

Just a quick update to let everyone know where I have been (if you cared/noticed). The past month and a half have been CRAZY! The first weekend in April Jess came to visit, then I went down to her house the second for a photo shoot done by our cousin, then the next weekend was Easter and we traveled down to Kentucky to be with both sets of family. We had a one weekend break where we had some much needed family time and then the first week in May I was in Kansas with both sisters and my one nephew. It has been madness for me and I have told all family members I am on a hiatus from traveling for at least a month or two. I have no energy left and having to deal with a crazy spastic dog along with single handily taking care of an infant for a weekend stay that takes 4.5hrs at least of car time to get to the destination I am done. Keeping Henry on schedule, pumping in the car, transferring breastmilk from cooler to fridge to cooler to bottle, lugging around 5 bags (at least) and doing it all in the constant rain we have had is enough to kill anyone's nerves.

I have thoroughly enjoyed all of our visits and visitors these last several weeks- do not get me wrong! It is part of the perk that comes with being a stay at home madre, getting to come and go on a whim. But my house has been a tore up mess, I haven't seen much of Kevin except for weekends (when I am home) and we are in the middle of a very big move! I am so happy to be just focused on the house, spring cleaning it while simultaneously packing up our lives to move into 1,300 glorious square feet of heaven! We have been counting down this move since March when we made the decision to stay in our beloved complex but upgrade to a 2bd/2ba apartment. And it is taking up all my time, I want to make sure this move goes as smoothly as possible. I started the packing process last weekend because when you have a 3month old you can really only get through packing one box before he needs/wants your attention. I work feverishly through his naps and plop him down in his jumper/play mat when ever I can spare a moment.

So in the midst of this great wonderful madness my life has ensued I have had no time to blog, or energy for that matter. I have so many stories I want to write about from this last month but that will have to wait until we get settled in the new place and I can take a breather.

And there is my cue....crying baby in his jumperoo begging momma to come relieve him from over stimulation of lights and rattles. LOL he is a sweet sweet boy. I love my job :D

More later my taters
