Hiya! Leap!

Hi. It's been a long time! Happy New Year.

We went to Superdawg today, and it was a big day for Owen. He had his first, very own, Supercheesie. Pretty exciting.




Many a cause for celebration lately! Last Friday, February 24th, Owen pooped on the potty for the first time. Pretty awesome. He was doing a funny little dance, we moved into the bathroom, started reading Everyone Poops and there you have it.

My sister was just recently married in Saint Louis. Owen's first train ride too! He loved it, obvs. It was a pretty hectic weekend as both Owen and I were in the wedding party. I didn't get to take many pictures at all, but the ones I did manage to snap you can see here. Even though Owen crashed and burned in a big way early on Saturday evening, it was a fun get together and I'm happy for my sister. Congrats!

Many big, major things that needed to be taken care of early on this year, but thankfully, those are all out of the way. For now, all that's left to do is look forward to our trip to Poland! Finally! Stress is out of the way, everything TCBed, and in 2 months we'll be on the other side of the world for a much needed break. I'm a bit nervous about being away from Owen for an extended time. Mostly nervous for myself, not for him, but it's really not a major concern. Major concerns are going here and here and here among other things. Going to the sea, going for coffee, going for walks, and going everywhere being lost and not at home.

In the meantime, looking for more places to see and things to do. Spending time working on etsy and am excited about new listings and things for the shop! Busy with work, busy with Owen, all things per usual. I'm exciting to be doing more of the things I want to be doing. I'm excited about being motivated about writing and having encouragement to write and somewhere to go with it, which has, in turn, encouraged me to work on writings and things that I've always just pushed aside and never mustered up what I've needed to do it.

Anyway, these are the types of things I say quite often on this blog and then six months go bye without another post. Along with other things that nag me when I'm trying to fall asleep, this is on the list of things I'm regularly going to tend to. 2012 is looking good. Today's February 29th, leap year! And I've already packed about a year's worth of stuff into this year already. It's easy and awesome from here on out!

I'll leave you with this, even though a couple months old, because it's February 29th and your mind should be blown even further.
