You may hang me up by my toenails.....

I know it's been for like, ever, since I posted.....We moved the computer ut of the kitchen and upstairs, and now I have to actually have to sit at the damn thing when Kyan is napping, instead of watchig him play out of one eye while typing, as a I used to. My message board friends will attest to the fact I am definitely not a constant presence on the computer anymore. And that napping thing? Yeah, that's kind of a crap shoot these days.....Kyan might nap, or he may morph into DEVIL SPAWN and scream until he is released from his room.

We've had lots going on...I try and get him into play groups and set up play dates, because I feel like interaction with other kids is really good for him and might improve his language skills. We'll be starting to go for a weekly Open Swim at the Westfield YMCA on Tuesday mornings, and I think he'll really enjoy that, since he enjoys baths so much.....

On March 10, Jon and I will be meting my sister and her boyfriend in NYC to watch a taping of the The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. On Wednesday and Thursday, Jon will be in Atlanta for work. In two weeks, he'll be in NYC for a couple days for work. The week after that, we'll all be down in Philadephia for Jon's work and using the opportunity to visit my parents. The last week in April we are going to be vacationing with out friends Sean and Amelia and their daughter Lily in Cape Cod......so the next couple months will be busy. And with so many big things coming up, I will try and post more, and do pictures.......Cause all I have head for weeks and weeks is: "I thought you were going to post more now that your not working" and "we want updates".................

So yes, I will TRY and be better about this......finding the time is a lot harder than I expected....

and now, here are some pics.....most of them are from the beginning of January, but the camera is downstairs, and I am too tired to go down and get it and upload new pics and all that crap....next time........

Pics of Kyan enjoying snacks....

On Blogging

Why, hello, dear readers! (are you still there? anyone...anyone?? Hellooooooo....)

Ahem, I realize my posts have been few and infrequent these past few months....the joyless time suck known as my job, the fun time suck known as parenthood.....What can I say? The day gets away from me. And then I eat choclate and drink a glass of red wine and fall asleep. Lather, rinse, repeat.

Anyway, all this to say.....I will be back in full force, posting much more frequently-with pictures! Why, you ask? What will have changed that will make my ability to entertain you/put you to sleep so much more frequent? Well............That joyless time suck known as my job is going to be a thing of the past, come Thursday, January 15!! I can now be a full time, non working Mother, because my husband is awesome and has worked hard to pay off bills and crunch numbers to make it happen.

As most of you know, I hate my job, and it has been an almost constant source of frustration and misery for me since I started it in 2005. So YAY for me!!

If you are only here for news of Kyan.......He is a big ball of constant energy, always running around......He likes to help me empty the dishwasher, his favorite words are "NOOOO", "Uppy", and "Cookie", and I spend all my free time eating his cheeks.

Anyway-Just thought I'd give you all the update......Prepare to be amazed by my frequent posting!
