It's been a long. long. time.

It feels like it's been a million years since I blogged last. Most of my favorite bloggers have given in to facebook or twitter and stopped blogging too. Two little kids that need my constant attention have made it so I can't check out too many blogs either. The economy has made it so I don't have many self-indulgent purchases to show off, or even hope of getting. The knitting has stopped because good quality yarn became another indulgence that seemed frivolous, especially when I never finished anything!
We moved into a different home, not nearly as gorgeous as the craftsman we restored with our own 2 hands, but this new place is in a better neighborhood where we don't hear gun shots nightly. I'm adjusting to it, but know that it's whats best for my kids and me too.
The kids are getting bigger and bigger. Cash can sit up and loves to play with his feet and hands. Seamus is learning so much so fast. Can count and say everyday of the week and recognize all the letters of the alphabet. It's wild to see my kids growing into little members of society.
We went dirt bike riding this weekend. The first trip all year, Seamus has no memory of our past trips and this was the first time he got to ride his bike outside of the back yard. It was really cold, so me and Cash spent most of the time in our comfy toy hauler, but it was gorgeous up there with snow on the mountain tops. I can't wait to go again soon.
