Do I have to catch up?

There is a blank of unimaginable proportions here that probably will never get filled in. I blogged about Pepper's birth. . .and now she's six months old. Choo choo will be TWO in 7 weeks. Sully has completed a whole half a year of Pre-K (hahah, a whole half. I really talk/think like this, people.) Guthrie and Addie started and love their school and are excelling and blossoming in a way that would make any mother sappy and proud to have any part of them. Kyle started and completed his first half-year of residency. We've even been part of the round of interviews to fill the positions for the NEXT year of residency (by "we", I mean that I got to go to some free dinners and smile and talk about the education system in Wisconsin). The majority of our conversations now center around a)home improvements, b)future job opportunities, and c)attempts to remember the last time we had a full night's sleep. I am still figuring out the juggling of 5 little mini-us's, working part-time (at night or in the wee hours of the morning - usually the morning, 'cause I love my lazy evenings), and settling into Wisconsin life. Snow is cool.

I am *so* grateful January came around and love the chance to whip up a new batch of self-improvement goals. I can't say them out loud, though, 'cause that is definitely jinxing it. The short version is a more positive, less judgmental, more nurturing Hanna. The long version would just bore you.

Project: Blog/Journal 2011 has begun.
