So, I'm the world's worst blogger. Officially. My last post was in August?!?! I have missed blogging and the entire book blog community, but unfortunately life sometimes just gets in the way. By life I mean cute new babies (see pic below) and my three amazing, but time consuming, big kids. So between a nightmarish pregnancy (9 months of morning sickness. Serious torture!), homeschooling, newborns, sleep deprivation, and planning for our long awaited move (to Texas y'all!!) life is C.R.A.Z.Y. I haven't read a book that wasn't filled with colorful illustrations in months, but today I discovered nursing my squishy little guy is the perfect time to pick up a book. I'm hesitant to say I'm back, but I want to be. I need to be. I need to immerse myself in something that didn't grow in my uterus. I love my kids, don't get me wrong, but it is so easy to lose yourself when you're a mother. & well I need something to keep my post-partum brain from turning to mush.
I lost my domain so I'm hoping switching back to my blogspot address works. If you made it through this rambling stream of thoughts, I thank you.
Mr. Squish who kept me nauseous and suffering from vertigo for the better part of a year.
Worth every single dry heave ;)
Squish is cute! :)
ReplyDeleteAww, what a cutie! Welcome back and hope to see more of you soon. :D
ReplyDeleteDarling! Welcome back!!!
ReplyDeleteI use to love checking my blogs during feeding time.
As a woman that had 2 months of morning sickness, I can relate and man do I feel for you.
*hugs*

Thanks everyone :)
ReplyDeleteYep we homeschool 2 of the 4 kiddos. My older kids are 13, 8 & 6. The teen wants to brave the public school system so we are giving it a try. The elementary age love homeschool so I've been busily organizing our curriculum for the year :)
You're a rock star. How long have you been homeschooling?
DeleteThis is our 3rd year, but first time going the traditional route. We used the virtual school through our state the last 2 years which laid everything out for us & even sent all the supplies. It was ok, but very structured with lots of busy work. It didn't create the learning environment I wanted for my family. I'm hoping to have more fun while learning this year & not be glued to a computer screen or a worksheet. Thankfully our new home state (Texas) is very homeschool friendly :)
