Hello Out There...We're Still Here

Yep. We're still alive. I haven't posted in what seems like ages {October}. Yikes. I swore I would not abandon my blog when I had a kid, but it seems like that's exactly what I did. I'd love to tell you I'm going to blog at least once a week, but I don't want to make a promise that most likely, I won't be able to keep. But I'll try.

There have been lots and lots of things going on in our lives which have caused me to actually live rather than blog. So...here are some things that have been keeping out family busy:

• Work - Kevin's still traveling every other week, or thereabouts. I've been busy at school, teaching one of the best groups of kids I've ever had. Ever.
• Wedding - Not mine. My brother's. I recently spent a long weekend in Atlanta with my future SIL for her bachelorette party. It was wonderful to get to know her family and friends. This weekend, we are also throwing her a bridal shower tea at a local English teahouse, so we're busy prepping for that.
• Wanderings - We traveled to and will continue to travel to Cincinnati to celebrate birthdays {Aunt Jo's big 6-0 and our not-so-little nephew Eli's 5th!} and babies {Cousin Stacey's shower}.
• Work-Outs - I've gotten the workout bug back! Kevin bought me a treadmill and I'm running again. I even ran a 5K with one of my best times! I'm loving the convenience and the inability to make excuses. I've also been dabbling in Jillian Michaels' 30-Day Shred. I haven't consistently stuck with it, but I'm hanging in there. I'll be wedding ready in no time!
• Wee One - Ethan, of course. He's not so wee anymore. He's developing his own independent personality. His new favorite line is, "No, let me do that!" He's really into movies. Like, a lot. His favorites include Monster's Inc., Monster's University, Finding Nemo, and Madagascar. He loves books, puzzles, and legos, but still isn't a huge fan of eating. Go figure. 

We'll, I think that's all for now. I will try my best to post pictures of our upcoming events, as we have many in the next few months. For now, here's a picture of my little superhero.
