It's not that I don't have things to blog about. I have tons, considering I'm about 2 months behind. And it's not like I don't want to blog about them. I do...sorta. I want the memories to be preserved. I just, I don't know, lost the motivation to do it. I'd call it writer's block if I actually considered myself a writer.
Plus, I'm trying really hard to do things for me lately. Which sounds all kinds of selfish, I realize. But honestly? Ever since Joe was born, I hit a point about every 3 weeks where I'm just going crazy and need a break. I love them to death, but I have to get away from these children every so often if I want to stay sane. And for a while, my "break" would entail a child-free trip to the grocery (which I imagine is a little bit what heaven is like) or maybe a quick run around town knocking a few errands off the list. But none of that is really fun or for me. So I'm really, really trying now to do things for me. Because I can't be a good mom to these kids if I'm burnt out.
So I've started working out again. (Go ahead, you can laugh right along with me.) And making plans with friends. And, if I get a few minutes to sit down at night, I'm doing what I want to do, not what I feel like I should do. And that's where blogging has lost out to other things, like Facebook & Pinterest (oh, the obsession...) Because blogging started to feel a little bit like a chore, which made it no fun to write (& likely no fun for you to read.)
But I'm eager to start writing again, to continue telling all of you how awesome these kids are and give you a tiny glimpse into our little world.
So stayed tuned.
