It's been a long time since I've had the gumption to hit "Publish" on this here blog. I literally have 38 half written drafts, rambles, and meaningless notes. To be honest I'm not even sure this combination of words will make the cut - we'll see.
Lately I have felt busy and overwhelmed, but at the same time boring and predictable. Life is charging full steam ahead and sometimes I feel like I am running after the caboose - baby on the hip and to-do list on the brain. Even my endocrinologist noticed, "It's not going to get easier to manage Diabetes as your daughter gets older, in fact it will probably be more difficult." Yeah, yeah, I know...this disease and this kid are strapped to me for the long haul so I should make more of an effort to manage them both ;-) Thing is - the kid is way more fun than pesky ol' Diabetes.
Case in point:
But a lot has happened lately and I want to keep you all in the know! What has been happening in your life?

Awww she's so cute and getting so big! What a beauty. I hear you on being busy - I've just moved the 4th (yes, 4th!) time in 5 months, juggling 3 projects, and caring for an almost-one-year-old.

She is wonderful! And while somethings get harder with kids growing up, some of the things get easier! I honestly think my oldest gets even more fun with every birthday. I don't know if this will help you, but every time I get in a funk like you are describing, I plan a trip. It gives me something to look forward to to break monotony, a reprieve from the to do list, and makes home feel even better when you come back. Seattle is a wonderful place if you need inspiration ;)
