I'm Back!

So.  I haven't posted in over a year.  There have been so many times when I've had a million thoughts running through my head and really just needed to get them out- but of course those times are when it's most inconvenient: like when I'm driving to or from work or daycare, when I'm trying to make sure dinner gets on the table while trying to figure out if "Hey mom! Look at this!" is something dangerous or just my crazy girl being crazy, or when it's quiet at night and we're snuggling in bed.  I'm not going to lie- I love this mommy stuff.

 Right now, I am sitting at my dining room table, drinking a bottle of Angry Orchard (I love this stuff!) and listening to my dear husband coax our daughter into sitting on the potty before bed.  (She's fully potty trained and going through a phase in which she willfully chooses when and when not to sit on the toilet.  We can talk about that later.)  My house is an unorganized mess, and we ordered pizza for dinner because neither of us had the energy to cook and/or wanted to go out.  Tomorrow morning will bring gymnastics class and shopping for accessories for her Sofia the First Halloween costume, but right now it's quiet.

I don't have anything profound to say, or a funny/ heartwarming story to share tonight.  I just wanted to say "hi" to anyone who may read this.  It's been a crazy 3 years, but we're doing OK.  Life is good today.
