They grew up

We are two weeks and a day from Katie's first birthday. Unbelievable. 

I remember when she was born thinking I just needed to survive the first year and that has been pretty true. It's hectic, but I no longer feel like I'm drowning. And when I see them play together it makes it all worth the chaos. 

We are still in the middle of our disaster relocation. Our house has sold, but there are issues with the one we were going to buy. We're starting to feel the pinch from my husbands pay cut and while these are first world problems it's been tiring. 

My husband has been looking for a new job which would lead to another move, but I think if we could land something where he is looking it could be good for us. BUT it gets complicated because we would be moved closer to my family and I've always been the type of kid that was a pleaser and I feel awful knowing it would break their hearts. I love the idea of having my family close, but I get concerned that I need more space. And my sister recommended him for the job so I'm afraid that if we go it will be mega drama. Part of me has thought about going to talk to someone about all of this because I can't just keep bending for everyone or I'm afraid I'll break. I always wanted my kids to be close to their grandparents, but mostly I want them to grow up with a mom and dad that are happy and together. I guess this has made me realize my marriage and the family we have created our my top priority. 

Lastly, I'm thinking about traing for my first half marathon next year. I lost 23 pounds before getting pregnant with Katie and have lost and additional 34. I can't believe I'm 57 pounds lighter. That's almost as much as the twins weigh. Haha! I have another 25 or so more to go and hopefully I'll keep it off forever. Fingers crossed!

P.S. I'm still having issues commenting from my phone which sucks because I do 99.99% of my blogging from it so I'm reading and love to see how everyone is doing. I'm sorry I can't comment often!

  1. I can't believe she's almost one!!!! They are all adorable and congrats on surviving the first year =) Going to talk to someone would be a good idea, it's always nice to have a 3rd party help you set realistic boundaries. Nice going on the weight loss, that rocks. Good luck on training for the marathon. My hats off to you, I could never run that far!
