Where the Heck Have I Been???
Yeah, I haven't posted in quite a while.
First off, our computer went on the blizt and then was taken away to be fixed just days after Christmas.
During that time, I decided to get the flu, cuz, hey, why not, right?
But that wasn't enough for me, so I decided to also get strep.
But since that cleared up so nicely from the antibiotics, I thought it would be great to get thrush down my throat.
That didn't quite fill my quota, so I decided to rush the thrush up to my eyes.
So that took up 6-7 weeks of my time.
Since then I can't seem to stop sleeping all the time--which is better than insomnia. On the plus side, I lost more weight and quit smoking (with the help of e-cigs).
So not all was lost.
Just huge lapses in time, weight, a bad habit, and the desire to go back in time and blog about Christmas, New Year's, Dante's 2nd birthday, and Teagan's 4th birthday.
But I can't lose those memories!!! So darn it! I will stop watching re-runs of Castle (hooked during illnesses) and NCIS (been hooked forever) and will blog! As God is my witness!

Happy Birthday Teagan!!!
Can 4 years have come and gone so quickly?!?! Apparently so!!
First you were born...
1st Birthday:
2nd Birthday:
3rd Birthday:
And then it was time for you to turn 4...but for about six months you didn't want to turn 4!!! You either wanted to stay 3 or skip to being 5 years old! You couldn't tell us why for a long time--you just said "Four is crazy!!" and you didn't want to be four! And you didn't want a party...or presents...or to go to school...or anything else if it meant turning four!! And by all means, no one should sing that birthday song to you!!! In fact, you burst into tears when people sang Happy Birthday to your cousin Dante.
But then, then we told you that we were sorry, but no matter what, you were going to turn four but it was your choice how you celebrated it: you could have a party or not; you could have presents or not; you could have singing or not...but regardless, you would indeed turn 4 years old on your birthday because that's just how it works. And then the truth came out: you have a little friend who is about 6 months older than you and the only 4 year old you really knew. Your friend is a boy who adores you & you adore him...but he is a boy and he is silly, and a little wild, and a he can sometimes be a little overwhelming, but tons of fun, and you miss him when he is away, now that he moved to a different state and you don't see him as often. And really your friend is also very sweet and can be quite calm and loves to cuddle and read and play quietly just as easily as he can play crazy-like. But for some reason, we don't know why, you got it in your head that when someone turns four they suddenly become crazy, wild, and overwhelming (though fun!)!!! Whether they wanted to be that way or not!! And you did not want to a crazy four year old!!! And finally about 2 weeks before your fourth birthday you were able to explain this to Gramma Cindy. She explained that that is not at all what would happen to you, and you happily decided to have a Princess-Pirate Birthday Party! There were just two caveats: 1) no one was allowed to sing the Happy Birthday Song and 2) you really wanted your little friend to be there (he couldn't come, but he did send you a wonderful present!).
And so, your 4th birthday came about:
And how is life as four year old? Pretty good, so far, according to you:

A little birthday ditty a la Teagan...
You nervously wait, hoping no one sings "that song"!!
