Blogging Withdrawals!

Lately, I have been having major blogging withdrawals. Here are the top 5 reasons I have not been a more frequent blogger lately....

1. My computer hard drive crashed during Christmas Card Season.....stress!

2. Darin's laptop hates me, Photoshop and my camera. (I take offense to this because these are two of my loves in life! And this is the reason for no blog updates.)

3. The post office has decided we no longer live in our apartment and is not delivering our mail! (Thus we didn't get important documents such as our student loan installment, Darin's residency match packet, and my Photoshop update cd so Darin's computer will like me again.)

4. We have a freaking hole the size of the Grand Canyon in Nash's ceiling and it is still not fixed, and we haven't received any word as to when it will be fixed! (So we are living with crickets and dragon flies...yes I said that right dragon flies???? And Nash can't sleep in our room!)

5. We miss our families! (Nash and I loved being in Utah with our families and now we are going into withdrawals for them....thanks for letting us stay! We hope to keep you updated soon on the blog.)

But on the brighter side....
1. I have all orders for Christmas Cards completed despite the love/hate relationship with Darin's computer....if any of you are interested in cards for the holidays let me know, I will direct you to my website!

2. I am running again...and losing weight...YEAH....I LOVE our jogging stroller!

3. Nash is the cutest baby in MY world! (I don't want to offend the other mothers out there!) He is teething, almost sitting up and eating solid foods (hates peas). I LOVE my baby boy!

4. Darin is in an easy rotation and we see a ton of him right now! We have taken 2 trips together, one to San Diego (we love that place!), and then to Laughlin, Nevada (not the greatest place to go with a baby...Darin had a interview in Kingman, AZ so we decided to go with him.) I LOVE my husband!

5. I am excited to take pictures of some friends this weekend...I LOVE my camera!

6. We are grateful for our friends here in California! They are family to us...thank you for being so kind, understanding, and patient with us! We LOVE you guys!

Anyway for the bad reasons listed above I will not be posting on this blog for a while. A blog just isn't good with out pictures! (my opinion). The great part is because of the good list I will be busy and happy! I will have lots of pictures to post when my computer is fixed or when Darin's computer decides to be my friend.

Well just so you know, I am a reader- so I read all the words despite pictures or not! So you can post whether or not you are including pictures! I understand the bad- my day to be posted later- with or without pictures. I would LOVE to have you Laughlin. Jon is not to far from there and they have a practice there too. (He doesn't go there but his buddy does) I love that you still worked hard to get the cards done and be VERY grateful that the problem in the ceiling isn't YOUR problem, necessarily! That is when it really sucks- hence my day to be posted later. I am jealous that you are running, I am not but yet am somehow training to run all these supposed races-ha. I agree I miss my family too even though I was just with them. Well this is long enough!

Thank you sooooo much for the cute cards! I love reading your blog and seeing your awesome pictures. The pic of Nash on your blog background is so cute. I can't believe Nash is sitting up. Watch out, before you know it he'll be talking and walking! Guess what?!?! Halle is walking! She is trying so hard. She took 12 steps in a row today! We are going to send your Christmas present with Mom and Dad when they come out to see you. Oh, I posted some of the princess pictures on our blog. I love those pictures they make me smile. You are amazing! Thank you! Keep in touch. Love, Rachel
