James Kennedy:

James never ceases to amaze us with his vocabulary, imagination, energy, and enthusiasm. He loves art, cars, and just imagining things all day long. He is excited to start preschool in the fall - though I don't know if I'm ready for that, and have many concerns that he will be unable to focus - he is ALWAYS moving! He is hilarious, charming, sensitive, mischiveous, and did I mention hilarious?! Hopefully soon this little acrobat will learn to listen and obey...

Rayya Katherine Faith:

This little beauty is almost 10 months old! She crawls, she sports 4 teeth (make that 5 as of two days later) and several more on the way, she smiles A LOT, wins the heart of all who meet her, will eat only table food, wants to walk and talk, never ceases to bring sunshine... but still does not sleep through the night.

I Don't Miss Blogging

I miss my blogger friends a lot lately. I miss the days of posts with tonnes of comments and lots of "chatter". But those days have sort of slipped away, and I find myself enjoying the freedom I have in NOT blogging as much! At first I was putting a lot of pressure on myself to keep up after I had Rayya - you know, all the monthly updates and stuff. I felt I had to do it for her, for you, and to keep things "fair" because I blogged about every single month of James' entire first, what, 18 or more months of life?! I can't do it anymore, and I think I finally and successfully feel completely comfortable blogging only when I want and need to - and not because I feel I have to. All that being said, I do miss the good 'ol days of blogging. I do catch up on your blogs every now and again, and have often been surprised at the arrival of new babies, new homes, new adventures! So know that I'm still reading, and hopefully one day I can get back to my diligent updates here at My Quest Through Motherhood. Motherhood is busy - and right now my quest to get through it doesn't involve making time for the blog.
