OH. hi December!!

                          How did you get here so quickly? Can it really be the last month of 2011 and Christmas in just a couple weeks!? Okay, I believe it. But seriously?

Today now marks three months of absolutely no blogging, story telling or picture sharing from our little family... and lets be honest, it makes me sad. I have never gone this long without posting and it bugs me almost every time I think about it. There was never an intention to take a break, just that we, or should I say, I, have been super busy {and, let's be honest... distracted by a few other things}.

So, why have we been busy? Here's a little of what we've been up to::   
          I had about a two month period during September/October that I was working 55-60 hours a week {and I am not one bit exaggerating- ask my husband- pretty sure he didn't see much of me, except in all my nappy hair, mascara smeared eyes in the morning to say our prayers and kiss me goodbye on his way to school. The husband is in school full time and we are on opposite schedules. This takes a lot of sacrifice [which I'm sure some of you may know what I'm talking about], but we know this is the best for us right now- and are very grateful Jaxon does not have to go to daycare. This has been a long few months but thankfully that semester comes to an end next week and I get him all to myself for almost a whole month- and even better- I get two whole weeks off work for Christmas/New Years and I just can't wait. We have A LOT of time to catch up on and it will be awesome!! Oh and in case anyone forgot, I am also the mother to a two year old little boy and that is all I need to say about that :)

Okay, so I'll stop whining about it and pick up from where we left off... YES, I'm going to somehow, someway try to catch up... wish me luck :)
