3 Months of . . . Just not getting everything done!

Ahhh. . . we're over the 3 month hump. Is it just me, or are the first 3 months with baby the hardest? No schedule, no rhythm, just trying to figure out what in the world is going on and how you can manage to make time for EVERYTHING you should!

So it's Christmas time and I love it. We're doing our annual advent calendar activities, with some new events this year and the kids are really enjoying it! I'm also starting a new business, which most of you probably know by now. Really, I'm not a salesperson and I don't like to be pushy, but I have felt SO much better than I have in a long time thanks to Plexus and I thought, "Now this is something I can do! Helping people feel better? That's right up my alley!" So if you haven't yet, you can visit my website, ask me questions and start your plexus journey which I'm documenting on my new blog.

I'm trying to keep my new blog and this one separate. This one's more for family updates and activities and the other is just for me and my random thoughts and writings. :-) I've missed writing a lot and I'm excited and motivated to keep up with it!

We had to scale back our Christmas cards this year because our family is getting so big with marriages and babies and babies (the last time I checked) now apparently old enough to get married. So I thought I'd put our letter and picture up as a MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR for all of our friends. We still love you, but I just can't make time for sending more than 150 Christmas cards at this time! Hope this is a reasonable substitute!

Sunday Morning

Yesterday, Callie came into my room while I was finishing up getting ready for church by putting on my jewelry. Callie: Mommy, you're very pretty. Me: Callie, that's very sweet. Thank you! Callie: You're welcome. Daddy's pretty too! Me: Oh Callie, you need to go tell him that . . . :)

Meanwhile, back at the Farm . . .

We're having some exciting happenings around the Booker Farm so I thought I'd write a little bit about what's going on with the kiddos. Callie Callie is so excited that we now have two dogs and three cats. Their names are (dogs) Belle and Ariel, (cats) Duchess, Dixie, and Thomas O'Malley -- Tom for short. She is very excited to be wrapping up another school year and looking forward to our travels this summer. She is taking on more responsibility around the house (which I love) and doing an excellent job for the most part in taking care of all the animals. I'm certainly enjoying watching her grow and blossom in so many ways, but this is especially significant to me. Philip and I are really striving to raise our children to be responsible, caring, and kind adults! I'm now teaching her on Wednesday Night Bible Class and I love observing her for the first time in a classroom setting as her teacher as well. She is a delight to have in class, if I may s...

Sometimes it's hard . . .

I feel like I've finally awoken from a long, chaotic dream. The past couple of weeks have gone so much more smoothly. The first 3 (or so) months with a new baby just throws my world upside down and inside out. While I'm in it, I find it hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel --  that time when we all adapt to each other and find our new routine. I'm not saying I don't love it, because I do. I just don't love all of it! So I'll do a quick little catch up, write Nolan's birth story in another post and we'll be back on track. For a little bit at least. I think I've said before that I love writing. I mean love it. But for some reason, I've never been good at keeping a journal. I really want to. There are so many moments I want to make sure I write down and remember and I want to be good at keeping track of everything. But over and over again I prove it's just not something that I'm consistent with. It irritates me to the point th...
