In the scheme of things

Wow, I should be ashamed not getting on here more, but with 4 kiddos, a husband and working a full time job (well 32 hrs a week)...there seems to be little time to myself. And when I do have time to myself, sleep seems to be the more obvious choice or a pedicure (ahhh, haven't had one of those is awhile either!).
But I guess I should update the goings on around here:

1. The older two kids are back in school (thank goodness for that, I swear if they would let me vote for the year round school program I would do it in a heart beat. The kids get so bored so fast and then they get on your nerves, yes confessions of a terrible mother).
2. We have a new sitter for the two younger kiddos and they are loving her as are we.
3. Sara is now 8.5 months old, sitting, crawling, standing and finally got "2" teeth, all this happened within a week and a half. At this pace she will be walking soon and have a mouthful of teeth.
4. I had gallbladder surgery last Monday (8/11) and did really well, the best part was the 4-5 hour wait in the recovery room, I swear it was the best sleep I have had in three years. Then the next day the kids were at school and the little ones went to the sitter and I had the day all to myself to do nothing but recover and sleep. It was wonderful. Aside from the 4 new scars I have on my abdomen, all in all I feel pretty good.
5. We celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary, however we didn't get to do anything "special", had lunch together with the little ones and then we ate at Taco Bell for dinner that evening. Woohoo talk about your excitement. I keep telling my hubby that next year we deserve to go on a cruise for our anniversary, especially since we didn't even get a honeymoon.
6. We still have jobs, are doing well and everyone is healthy. So that by far is the best thing, praise be to God!

So now that everyone is updated, hopefully I can be a little more diligent about posting in the future, well that is my hope anyways.
