Wow. I’ve gone a long time between posts before, but never this long… An apology (as I’ve done in the past when new posts became infrequent) doesn’t seem like it’s even enough in this case. Especially since everyone who might have read this thing before has likely given up and moved on to greener pastures already. Regardless, here’s an update that’s WAY past due…

Madi is growing like a frickin’ weed lately. She was 23 pounds when we last went to the doctor. Going to the doctor is at least a once-per-month occurrence, so that had to have been sometime within the past few weeks. We’ve had a pretty busy past few months, but that’s nothing new really. Between Madi, both of our work schedules and the recent holidays, it’s been hectic. Speaking of the holidays, we had a great holiday season. We were able to travel up to Northwest Arkansas for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. Travelling home after Christmas was interesting, with the extremely ridiculous amount of stuff Madi got for Christmas from all of her various relatives. There wasn’t room for one more thing in the car. That’s not an exaggeration and I’d have taken a picture of it after we got it all packed to head home, except the camera was buried in there and I’d have never gotten it all packed back up. You’ll just have to take my word for it.

We’re also in the process of getting ready to put our house on the market. The list of tasks we want to take care of before listing it is occupying what little bit of free time we’ve had lately. Luckily, it’s a relatively small list (it should be, since the house is only 3 and a half years old). So, if any of you know a family who’s looking for a great 4 bedroom, 2 bath house in a lovely planned community (with a water park!), backing a pond (with fish!), in the safest part of the neighborhood (the neighbors on one side include a fireman and a nurse and the new neighbor on the other side of us is a policeman), send them our way.

February is shaping up to be just as busy as the past couple of months. Rebecca’s got an all-day meeting for work one Saturday (in Fort Worth, even) and on another Saturday she’s going to be throwing a baby shower for our friends Hope and Jacob, who are expecting their first kid later in February (they have a site, so click here to go check them out). She’s bigtime excited about getting to throw a baby shower and has been planning and researching all the time lately! At least I got a new printer out of it, so that she could print up invitations.

Once again, I’d apologize for the lack of posts, if I thought it would do any good. I will, however, promise to try and post on this thing more frequently. Also, I have at least been a little better about posting updated photos on our Flickr site, so you can always go there for a photo fix.
