A Proper Introduction

Cheek, meet Headboard. Headboard, Cheek.
It's kind of hard to see because of the lighting in this pic, but Selah acquired a pretty nasty, big bruise on her left cheek Thursday night after a rough encounter with her headboard. Thankfully, it was her cheek and not her nose, chin, eye, forehead, any of which would have probably meant a donation to the Cook Children's ER in exchange for stitches. It seems to have been a memorable experience for her, so I'm hoping in the future she'll choose to head my warnings about jumping on the bed!

Hello.

My name is Erin. I'm a blog slacker.

(Everyone) Hello, Erin.
:-:-:-:-:

Pardon me for my lack of consistency these days. Who am I kidding? Non-existence is more like it, as you can clearly see from the date of my last post! Hello, motherly guilt.
Wrangling two little ones is quite a task to say the least. Documenting it, as I've clearly demonstrated, has become even trickier!

:-:-:-:-:

The main issue that's kept me from blogging all this time is my tendency to be a little, um, let's say... particular about things. Okay, okay. I'm completely anal. A perfectionist. If I don't have time to do it right I'm not about to do it half way. This probably stems from my background in mathematics. I like order. Sequences. Patterns. Anywho... I've had to come to grips with the fact that there does not, in any part of my imagination, exist a world in which I have time to go back and document all of the wonderful, awful, big and little events that have taken place since January of 2009. There just isn't. And it's taken me awhile to accept that and be OK with picking up with the present and resolving to make blogging a part of my routine.

:-:-:-:-:

I will for sure recap a few important highlights (ie: holidays, birthdays, etc.), and don't think I'm not gonna back-date every one of them. It drives me crazy to read a post dated in August that actually happened in February! Have I mentioned I'm nuts?! But I digress...
Be looking for an on-slot of posts, both catch-up and new, in a few days!
:-:-:-:-:

For now, I'll leave you with this little morsel... and by "morsel", I mean photo. (wink, wink)
