Hello, hello

Why, hello there! Thanks for visiting the blog that I have been woefully lack in updating these past several months and overall in general. Life isn't crazy or anything. In fact, it is rather the opposite for the most part. And perhaps that is why there haven't been too many updates - I'm spending time laughing with hubby on the couch, watching shows in the evenings. The few preschool mornings to myself are spent working out and taking care of myself better. Weekends are spent helping the boys with Legos while Daddy is out running and then we spend time together as a family, farting around. I assume this is what it feels like to be a "normal" non-military family. So I am rejoicing in the simplicity of it all until things ramp up again for next year's deployment.

Not us. But I assume that's what a non-military family looks like...?

I have a personal goal to be better about writing and sharing pictures again, so buckle up for the next round! Things to document include Erik and I's journey on the Whole30 (food program), my "lazy" days with the boys as Landon closes the gap to Kindergarten in the fall, general parenting wins and fails, an ode to my missing IUD (spoiler alert: ends with a trip to the OR table), Erik's woodworking build of Anders' new bed (he can't stay in a half disassembled crib forever) and other fun stuff along the way. Well, fun stuff for us, at least. You're just here, killing time and procrastinating on much more important stuff to do. Thanks for being here - hello again!
