Long Time, No See

Six months without a post.  Woops.  I guess that's what happens when your kid starts crawling all over the place and you can't take 2 minutes to go pee let alone time to play on the internet.  I miss the days of a stationary baby.  I totally don't know how mommy bloggers do it.  Or anyone who works from home with a young toddler and no childcare. 

I hadn't been planning on updating Two Embrys again (at least until I have more than 10 minutes to myself), but I hate that I haven't documented the last six months.  Harper's been changing so much and I'm not exactly the best at keeping the baby books up to date.  I love that I can look back at this blog and know what day she started sitting up but I can't remember when she cut her first tooth. 

She's up to nine, by the way.  Kaelin, on the other hand, had to get two teeth extracted over the fall. 

This is what happens when Mama goes to the bathroom.

I'm Ba-ack!

Hello, all!  After an unplanned hiatus, I'm back and blogging.  Lots of updates will be coming in the next few weeks as I have time, but first... a quick explanation as to my absence.

I went on vacation.  My mom's internet is worse than dial-up.  While I can check facebook from my phone, I wasn't about to write a post using a touch screen.

Harper's crawling.  She's been crawling for over a month, but now she's really getting around.  I swear, I can't put her down for two seconds without her finding something she shouldn't have.  We've done preliminary babyproofing, but not enough that she can safely crawl around while I play on the internet. 

Yeah, it's been that sort of month. 

Playstation controllers go in the mouth, right?

You Found Me!

Welcome to our new home inside our home.  Home inside our computer?  How about welcome to our new domain?  :-)

Anyways, I've spent the last few days trying to transfer everything over and making sure that links still work and such, but let me know if anything is broken or looks weird.  I'm still sorting stuff out over at KUrunner, so I may have missed something.

Also, I couldn't transfer comments over, so if you are so inclined, feel free to leave them again!  And, if you have a few spare seconds, could you vote for the site so we can get on a list of baby blogs?  It only takes two clicks!

Love and Happiness

I know I haven’t been posting much on her because, well, I’ve been enjoying my family. I would apologize, but no offense to my wonderful readers, I’d much rather be hanging with the kids than sitting on the computer with you.

;-)

In all seriousness, the last few weeks have been great. Jason’s been crazy busy at work, but it’s made us appreciate the time we have with him all that much more. Kaelin’s out of school now and we’ve been having a blast with our mini summer homeschooling session. Plus, Harper’s getting to a really fun age (instead of the eat, sleep, poop newborn phase). So, I have lots to update about when I get a few minutes.

I also checked my blog stats this morning — and people are reading this blog! I mean, obviously, I don’t have the kind of readership that my favorite mommy blogs have, but it just amazes me that people are reading what I’m saying. Two Embrys started out as a blog for my family to see pictures of the kids so I get absolutely giddy everytime I log on and have a new comment. Seriously, if you are reading… leave a comment (unless you’re just going to tell me how much I suck)! I love the advice and information I’ve been getting from you guys. Thanks for reading and putting a smile on my face.

Until next time, I’ll leave you with some pure cuteness — a picture of Kaelin at 4.5 months (the same age Harper is now!)

Front facing car seat?  Oh, what I've learned in 8 years...

P.S. If you like my writing, feel free to mosey on over to my fitness blog, KUrunner. I try to keep most of the mommy stuff over here, but honestly, what mom doesn’t want to live a healthy lifestyle? (Yes, this is shameless self-promotion here. Sorry!)

P.P.S I think it’s safe to say that I might be over my little episode of depression! Yay!
