YES, I'M ALIVE

I know I need to write so that you don't throw your hands up in disgust and leave this site forever, but I was really hoping to ease back into it with a theme month. Something along the lines of gratitude month or do something every day you hate month, but here it is January 15 and it's the middle of the month. And if you know me, you know that every bite of apple pie a la mode has to have the perfect proportion of pie and ice cream, so there is no way I'm going to start a theme month on the 15th. The theme month will have to wait until February. In the meantime, you're stuck with the typical daily adventures. Like how today, Adrian's parents wanted to flake on their babysitting duties because they said it was too cold, so Adrian had to bust out the "but it's our anniversary" card and they rushed right on over. Or how something about our recent trip aged Jack so that he definitely isn't a baby anymore. We were probably so busy rushing around the state of California for three weeks that we didn't see he had officially entered toddlerhood. He confidently walks around our house now and he's getting so tall and he's babbling like a maniac and he even has this new laugh. He's just too much.
