Okay, Okay

I haven't really been "great" at posting lately. Chalk it up to laziness. Or the fact that Michael has his own family book club and he has a lot more time to read than I do, so I've been using every spare second to try and catch up. Or the fact that I could literally spend every waking second cleaning something in this house. I don't, but I could. Or maybe to the fact that three kids take a lot of time. Or maybe because we've had warm weather lately and I'm trying to actually get a tan this year. Whatever reason you want to give me, I'll take it.

I feel like none of you even know me anymore. Like did I tell you that I wasn't able to run in my first race because I went and got tendonitis in my IT band? Yeah, I couldn't run for three weeks before the Bolder Boulder (which was yesterday, by the way). So then I run yesterday and did okay. Not great, not even decent, but just okay. And now today I am FREAKIN sore. Like it hurts to walk down the stairs sore. Don't run in a 10k when you weren't able to run for three weeks prior. You're not going to like the results. And now I have one month to get ready for my half marathon.

And have I mentioned how I feel about potty training? I started potty-training Kate about 2 months ago and she was doing awesome. But since we stopped giving her a treat for every time she went, she decided that peeing and pooping in the toilet were only necessary if we asked her to go do it. So maybe that's another reason I haven't blogged because I have to remind myself to remind Kate to go to the bathroom. I hate potty training. Did I mention that?

Oh, and look what Miss Haley decided she wanted to start doing a couple of weeks ago: Not making crazy drunk faces, but sitting up. Can she really be this big? But what she isn't showing you is her two bottom teeth. She likes to keep those hidden until she decides to bite your finger. Baby teeth are sharp.

And now that you've finished this post you have experienced what it's like for Adam when he gets home from work and tries to have a conversation with me. Everything is always all over the place. Don't you wish you could experience this type of nonsense all of the time like him?

I'm sorry about the tendonitis - I did that running in Nashville and it was miserable. Not fun! And look at Miss Haley -- she and our Simon are on the same page, sitting up, crawling all over the place. Love it.

You should come here and visit me!
