Temporary Sabbatical

Can't believe it's been more than 5 months since I posted something to the blog.  I'm a bad, bad blogger.  My sincerest apologies to all of my loyal followers...all three of you.  I'm going to dust off the spiderwebs that have grown on this site and try and bring you all up to speed.  Let's see since the end of September the following events have occurred (but not limited to):

• Seamus' 2nd birthday
• Thomas' first teeth / first abilities at clapping
• Halloween - the boys were Dinosaurs
• My ~22nd birthday :)
• Thanksgiving
• Transition from Au Pair #1 (Mint) to Au Pair #2 (Nancy)
• Christmas
• New Year's trip to the Borgerson's house in Annisquam, MA
• My strides in learning Chinese (my New Year's resolultion - ni hao!) are as robust as Chinese water torture
• First swim class for Thomas ... turns into a weekly family outing
• Seamus enters his first days at Nursery School
• Thomas starts walking (no, you didn't miss a line where he started crawling...he bypassed that stage)
• Valentine's Day
• Steve's 40th birthday (with a surprise visit from big sister Christine)

It's possible I've missed many important milestones in this list, but like my mind it is a smattering of recollections at this point in time.  Perhaps I'll fill in the blanks five months from now when my next post appears...
