a little March bloggy break

I tend to overbook myself a little bit and the month of March is no exception.   I might be able to post a few picture posts, but other than that, I'm giving myself a break to not even think about trying to blog!

Here is what's on the list for the next few weeks, in no specific order {try not to stalk me}:


a little overwhelmed
  • Run in my second half marathon, and the training {I'm up to 10 miles; just need to fit in a 12 mile run and maintain}
  • A women's retreat in Lancaster, PA with my previous church
  • Travel to a memorial service in Buffalo, NY for Nate's grandfather {he passed away at the age of 98. what a precious man he was}
  • Created for Care conference {who else is coming?  Can’t WAIT to meet/see all of my bloggy friends there!}
  • Throwing a birthday party for a certain little man who is turning THREE.  {pinterest is totally intimidating my ideal of a "small family and a couple friends" party}
  • Making cupcakes for B's birthday at preschool {I'm thinking box blueberry muffins though}
  • Hosting out of town family for said birthday party
  • Preparing a guest room {Trying to clean up the pigsty that is my guest room/craft room/overflow kids clothes/office room that falls apart every few weeks}
  • Completely cleaning out our master bedroom and my closet before I leave for C4C so hubby can work on new carpet and floor creaks when we are gone.  {This is going to take a miracle for this clutter bug and clothes junkie}
  • Taking 12 hours in Real Estate Continuing Education credits by April 1st.  {I haven't procrastinated completely, because I did take 3 hours already :)}
  • Possibly add studying for my Insurance license too


 Whew, I'm exhausted just looking at that, much less typing it up!  Hope you all have a wonderful March!  

I leave you with two non-instragrammed {SHOCKER} pictures of my handsome men after B's bath-time last night!



I LOVE them!

  4. That was my February! Sadly, I'm not certain March is slowing down as much as I'd anticipated! Enjoy the busy-ness!

  5. Goodness gracious! No wonder you need a blog break! Praying that March works out in the way that's best. We'll survive without you while you're gone. Precious pictures!

  7. Feeling similar! 3 of my 4 kids have birthdays in March---my baby was born 2 days after yours! And, I've got so much going on it can make my head hurt thinking about it. Glad the conference is at the end of the month so it can really be some rest for me...and fun... :)

  9. And I just read your adoption story--beautiful. I wish that we had such a gift to give Selah, but since we don't know any of her story, it's not possible. We are just so thankful for the gift of her...and to the incredible birthmom we don't know.
