The Blog-uation (The Blog Situation)

I am having some issues with my blog. The longer the amount of time between posts the more anxious I feel. It's kind of like when you haven't talked to a friend in a while and you feel anxious so then you wait even longer to call and when you finally do talk it's been way too long and you wonder why you just didn't call a long time ago. When Betsy was born I was obsessed with the blog. I was also obsessed with taking pictures of her. I took at least one picture of her every single day until she turned six months old. I had to stop because it became too stressful to take her picture every day and sometimes I wasn't in the mood and neither was she. I want to get back to blogging, but I feel like I have no time. I have no idea how my blogging mom friends stay on top of their blogs. In the last month Sadie has been a terror at bedtime. Momma Lady and Grandpa bought the girls beautiful twin beds, but Sadie just doesn't want to stay in her bed. She gets out of her bed countless times from 8 until 930 and sometimes later. Then she is exhausted in the morning. They have also had coughs and colds. By the time 9:00 rolls around I am wiped out. I wake up at 5:30 to go to the gym and that leaves little time to hang with my husband, watch "my shows," or blog. I don't even read my friends' or family members' blogs anymore, because I feel too guilty! Yes, I have a problem. Either I am going to quit bloggin' or try to do it more regularly.

I took a few pictures of the girls in November with my phone. So much has happened--Katie got married being the most exciting thing! She was a beautiful bride and the wedding was perfect. P turned 35 and we celebrated with drinks at Bouligny, dinner at Mila, and coffee at Sucre. We celebrated again with the kids at Rum House and Sucre.

I have been exercising like crazy and dieting because I had gotten chubby. I have lost 18 pounds and I have just a few more to go, but I am going to just try to maintain through the holiday season so I won't be miserable. I have run three 5 ks in the last month. The last race was the Mount Carmel Challenge Cup and I came in first place in the Female 35-39 division. I was very excited to receive my first trophy ever! I am not a sporty chick so this was huge for me.

The girls are obsessed with Kai Lan and Sadie asks to watch it constantly. Sadie says cute things like boo-yette (barette). Betsy asks questions about everything and little sister loves to ask "Why?"

Thanksgiving in Vacherie was wonderful. I fall asleep within minutes of the end of dinner. I am so lucky! The girls stayed in Vacherie for a few days and P and I saw Harry Potter and hung out and enjoyed some much needed down time. Yet, I didn't blog at all. Damn blog anxiety!!!

And now back to the catch up. Here comes October 2010...
