My blogging break started as a lack of inspiration for a day or two and then it turned into..something else.  I’ve actually been thinking about the blog quit a bit, and reevaluating my blog philosophy/strategy.  I haven’t come to any conclusions, but decided to go ahead and start posting on the 1st of December, as it is time, once again, for the Journal Your Christmas project.  (You can see all of my posts about last year’s Christmas Journal HERE).  I don’t actually have today’s activity done yet, because I’m still contemplating that, too.  I don’t have the time to spend on it that I did last year, so I need to make it simpler.  I still want to do it, though, so that will be forthcoming.

Right now, I just wanted to share 2 pictures that will explain part of why I’ve been quiet the last week:

My sister and her family have been here for the past week (and are leaving today, boo-hoo).  Hannah is now 10 months old and just as sweet as can be.  She is teething, and is very attached to her Mommy.  She has finally warmed up to being held and played with by someone other than Mommy or Daddy, and of course she has to go home now.

Colin is THREE.  And boy is he THREE.  He’s pretty sweet, too, but I think the photo gives you an idea of his currently personality.  Busy.  Silly.  (That’s his “CHEESE” face).  Funny.  Constantly in motion. Hopefully he didn’t pick up too many bad habits (or words) from my monsters.  (They were wearing shorts because they were headed to basketball shortly after this picture.  I don’t know what’s up with Joe’s smile.  Or Will’s face.  Sheesh).

I’m partly posting these pictures because of the THREE people that have said something about the lack of blogging, one of them is the other grandma of these two munchkins, so, here you go Judy!  Thanks for asking about me!

(The other two that mentioned my absence were my sister and mother).

So, back later with today’s Christmas Journal entry.

Have a great Monday.
