After a ten-month break, I'm back to the blogging world.
I needed to take a break after I realized that blogging was causing some negativity in my life. I was feeling self-conscious about my posts, so I didn't have fun writing. Also, I would spend around an hour every day reading other people's blogs and would compare myself to everyone. I realized blogging wasn't the best thing for my emotional health and decided to sit back and just focus on living my life.
I feel so much better now and have come back to blogging so that I have a journal of our family life. I am limiting my blog reading so that I don't get immersed in everyone else's life and keep a proper perspective.
So anyway....life's been good.
I have three weeks left of class until I am DONE. I shouted that word, done, just to let you know. I applied to a masters program but realized that I'm not the happiest person when dealing with homework. Plus, I have no plans to pursue anything after I were to get my masters, so we would just get to pay student loans...for fun...! Instead, I'm just going to be a wife and mother and pursue interests that are more hobby related than academic. Can I just say how tired I am of proofreading papers for passive voice and poor grammar? I just want to write with bad grammar and not feel guilty. Is that too much to ask? Hmm?
Ryan finished his degree in April and we are walking together at the end of July. I'm trying to figure out if we want to have a big graduation bash afterward at our house, or just celebrate by going out to dinner. Decisions decisions!
Tommy is 13 months and is THE cutest boy ever! I bet you rolled your eyes, but my heart is filled with love for my little boy. At this moment he is saying "Uh oh" which sounds more like "aah ooh" that just makes me want to squish his little cheeks until he begs for mercy! I hope I have four little boys running around my house someday. I could be a soccer mom. Can't you see me yelling on the sidelines? I am seriously baby hungry and want to be pregnant right now. That's information people usually keep on the quiet, but my hunger is consuming and I just need to say something about it!
So, just wanted to say hi and get things rolling. I will post about Tommy's birthday when I have a bit more time to work out the pictures and all.
Anyway, I love you all. Be safe and say your prayers.

Glad you're back, Katie! I won't know you anymore if you don't post! :) Good luck with the last few weeks of school.
Glad you are back! Congrats on graduating!
Who would have thought that I would randomly check your blog on the day that you are back? How fun. Baby hunger is the spirit telling you it is time (at least that is how it was for me). Good luck.
I love you katie, you always makes me laugh. Its so funny that i have been feeling the same way about blogging and am trying not to compare myself to other people, its way hard though. Congrats on graduating, that is beyond exciting!!
You sound like me, i am waaaayyyyy baby hungry too, beyond baby hungry. hopefully someday soon we will both have another little one.
I am so glad your back though, i missed hearing your updates.
I'm so glad! You are my favorite! I understand about getting overwhelmed by others' blogs. Just know that you're awesome.
