About Me

I am a 30 year old mom - of TWO BOYS!?!, wife, career woman, sister, friend, auntie and daughter and this blog is JUST FOR ME...In a busy life of putting everyone else first (as most of us mums do) it is going to be one of the things that I make time to do FOR ME...it's going to be a place for me to put down my thoughts and maybe make some sense of all the things that roll around in my head; make some sense of my journey...It's going to be a view of me, from inside.

Still kickin'

Wow, I haven't posted in over a year! Not for lack of wanting, I assure you, but MAN, I have found life as a working mom of 2 young boys (not to mention the housework, the wedding photography on the weekends, the garden, trying to exercise regularly, etc, etc) to be B-U-S-Y. WHEW! And everyday is a new adventure with kids, isn't it??

I just know, though, that soon enough they will be bigger, and will be involved in their own stuff, and (besides needing me to run them everywhere) they won't want anything to do with me. And then, as before they came into our lives, I will have lots of time to blog and photograph and exercise and garden and read.

And so, I am trying to live in the moment as much as possible, and just soak up every moment of joy that they bring.



Baby C is just not a baby anymore! He will be 2 in August, and he is busy and wild and tough and strong willed and BOSSY and about as different from his brother as two people could be! It never ceases to amaze me that two so very different people could come from the same set of genes. He is WORK. A LOT of work. But (most days!) I wouldn't change him for the world :) He is at that perfect, adorable age, which W and I must comment on at least once a day.



Logan is 4-1/2 and is my soft hearted little sweet heart. He started T-ball this summer, which I am helping to coach (which really just entails herding 20 4-6 year olds around for an hour and a half), and he will start pre-school in the fall (EEEEK!) He is addicted to playing the Wii, which shouldn't be surprising since his father and I have both enjoyed our share of video games over the years. I swore I was not going to let him play video games until he was older, but he is SO GOOD at them, and he enjoys them, and he still loves to be outside everyday too, so Meh...There are worse things in life.

It has been a good year. I have been growing in so many ways. It's good. I'm good. Life is good.

And oh so busy.
