We're Still Here

I just realized it has been 11 days since my last post and some of my gentle readers (you know who you are) are getting a little antsy. The new year has been interesting so far. Okay- not really but it sounds better than what's really been going on around here. Jon was home for Christmas break for 2 1/2 weeks and it just seems like we didn't get a whole lot done- which is not necessarily a bad thing it just makes things complicated when it's time to go back into a normal routine. In addition to to settling back into our old schedule I have been busily trying to implement our New Year's Resolutions as a family as well as my own personal resolutions. So far things have been going really with the possible exception of starting my housecleaning schedule to make my life run more smoothly. Stuff just comes up- today the van battery was giving me fits by not starting so I was waiting around for a tow truck and consequently unable to take Geagen to her 6 month check-up (For the record she was devastated. I will be taking her sometime this week so there is still time to guess her weight.). And for some odd reason if things aren't done that would in theory violate my new housecleaning schedule (for example: the basket of ironing that seems to be mocking me as I type) they seem to make it impossible to begin the new routine because I would be ironing on Tuesday instead of Friday which is the appointed day to slave over a hot ironing board. Don't even bother asking- it's just one of the joys of OCD. I've embraced it.

So long story short- I haven't taken any pictures of Geagen for the past 2 weeks or so. I'll get around to it on Picture Day once I assign a day of the week for that and the stars align. I haven't forgotten about the blog or anything like that so please don't despair. I promise to document Geagen's new achievement of sitting up all by herself. It's really quite cute. And if I can figure out how to download video I will post video of Geagen in her jumperoo and the little jumping dance she does. It's really cute.
