Taking On Too Much

This is the story of my life and the choices I have made. By most people's standards I have probably taken on too much. By my standards, it's just life as usual.

Hi, it's been a long time....

So this was precisely the reason I didn't want to start writing a blog....because of the responsibility to do it regularly.

Anyway, here I am: Better late than never.

So we have moved since my last post. We were crammed in our old house. All 6 of us were living in 1800 square feet, with 5 of us sharing one of the two bathrooms. Now we have 2550 square feet and 3 full bathrooms for all of us share. It's like a dream. We actually have enough space to spread out and put everything. And somehow, life seems easier. With a place for everything, it seems as if my life flows smoother. With things staying tidy even when there are a few things out of place, it seems as if I am calmer.

The challenges we face now are the annual birthday, Hannukah, Christmas extravaganza that every November/December brings. Jason is coming up to his third birthday, and on the verge of being completely potty trained (go Jason!). Tyler is coming up on his first birthday (already???) and Kevin is coming up on his sixth (!) birthday. All within a month of each other. To say that this time of year is a whirlwind is an understatement. But it's also fun and amazing to see the kids get big....

And throughout, Ken & I will try to make time for each other. We have plans to get away for a weekend (sans kids) in November and one in December which I am SOOO looking forward to. And come January, we will be taking the family to Tofino for our annual trip.

This is a good time of year.
