You know when you stop doing something that was a regular thing, like working out or running or blogging, how it's amazingly difficult to get back into it? Yeah, that's where I'm at with this blog. I love it and enjoy it and miss it ... But look! Blooming jasmine! And kiddie pools! And ... Oh wait, never mind.
But I'm here now, and here's what had happened in a nutshell in the past few weeks: lots of upheaval at work (better now) and crazy fun weekends that I don't want to end.
Have I mentioned that I love this weather? Slightly chilly in the mornings, hot as heck in the afternoon. Shorts and tank tops and swimwear weather. Summer is going to be boiling at this rate (we're 8 degrees hotter than average this year) but I'm going to enjoy it now and mourn the a/c bill in July when it happens.
So the past few weekends we've done seafood festivals and touch-a-truck events and swimming at my in-laws' pool and date night with the neighbors and haircuts (I have short hair now!) And good times. It's been good times.Henry had not necessarily been a pleasure - he's working hard on his tantrum skills over things like having to wait for his waffle to heat up in the toaster and getting milk when he wanted water. It seems worse than when Spencer was that age, but I really don't know. Things seem to affect him so much more. Teething is still a bear. Tantrums are a pain. But he's such a little personality that I forget about all of it until it actually happens.
And Spencer. I'd be remiss if I didn't mention how good he has been, generally. Funny and sweet and such a good brother. four is a good age.This weekend is heavily planned. Hubs and I are going to dinner and Hunger Games (hold me now, I don't do well with crowded movie theaters). Tomorrow night my neighbors are coming over for dinner. Sunday we are having brunch with Hubs' family and my friend Becky is coming into town from Delaware for the day so I get to be a 12-year old girl around town with her. Good times! Hope your weekend is excellent too!

How did you like Hunger Games?
Yeah, we went Friday night and it was crowded and loud. We couldn't even hear the previews, but people pretty much quieted down once the movie started.
Matt didn't like it, but he said he probably missed a lot not reading the book. I think they tried to fit too much in and for someone who hadn't read the books it might have seemed pretty rushed.
But it's okay. Apart from the gratuitous cheering, it was a good experience.
I saw the video of Henry on your Facebook with the Chris fan and it was cute.
I loved it - I think if they would have put any more in from the book it would have weighed it down too much. My hubby liked it, and he didn't read the books.
And Henry. It's a good thing he's cute. :)
