Ridiculously Behind...

I cannot believe its been a month since I've updated... oh wait, yes I can.  I have tons of blog posts in the back of my head that need to be done and published... 

Including:

• Celina and Tim's baby shower (which is now a mute point, as Baby Alexa has arrived and that will be another post I'm behind on after this coming weekend)
• The Family Reunion in the Dells
• The Girls Room
• Hazel's Birthday
• The Girls Birthday Party
• Another Garden Update
• Random Fun stuff we've done this summer

There really isn't any excuse for being so far behind... except that we were on the road every weekend of almost a month straight, we were very busy getting the girls room done, getting ready for their birthday party and finally, when all that was over... we just crashed and burned and have taken 2 weeks off and done nothing.

Do I feel better that I now have a list and commitment on paper to update this blog so I don't lose track... yes.  I just need to work on getting in done.

This past weekend was an absolutely fantastic weekend, and it's just what we needed.   Don't anybody get me wrong... we love being on the go, and seeing friends and family and filling our summer weekends up.  But sometimes, just sometimes, it's really nice to spend some time at home, doing what we want, when we want, with no deadlines and commitments.  That's just what the doctor ordered for us, and we LOVED every minute of it.  A day at the waterpark as a family, a bonfire, getting the garden caught up and a whole bunch of family time.

This week, unfortunately isn't much better... We're off to the Twins/White Sox game Tuesday night, Weds night and Thursday night packing and getting ready to head to Chicago to meet our new niece, Alexa Brooklyn, and Franny's 2nd birthday on Sunday.  Next week doesn't look much better, as we'll spend Monday-Thursday getting caught up from being out of town this weekend and ready to spend a long weekend in Ely.  And then, I could post that we have 2 weddings Labor Day weekend and family pictures the following weekend and then mid-September we have a free weekend again.

So, I've committed to the topics above... I just need to find time to get them posted,so I don't get further behind as we have some pretty big milestones and weekend trips in the coming weekends.

Craziness, I tell ya, craziness!
