So much of everything and yet nothing!

edit... (ok, I just read this through and it sounds way more negative than I am really feeling. I just have a bunch of things running around in my head and I threw them all onto 'paper' here so don't worry that I'm about to have a breakdown when you read this...)

Ok, ok. I have been the blog slacker too. There has been way too much going on in my life and yet at the same time it feels like a big pile of nothing!
Andrew's pooping on the potty pretty well now. He's enjoying school and those 4 hours 2x a week away from him are really great (but go really, really fast!)
Katie had a really bad fever this week and so I spent quite a few hours cuddling on the couch and trying to comfort her. Other than that, she is busy and getting a bit clingy to mom.
Aaron is working a lot, starting to realize that he has to dig into the business a bit more if he's really going to run it someday. He's enjoying it but he's tired when he comes home.
I'm tired. My house is a mess but I'm enjoying my kids more days than not :-) I have so much laundry I need to put away that I can't believe that we have clothes to wear! We're getting closer and closer to this church plant and it is kindof freaking me out! I'm knitting away on an ABC blanket for a dear friend and I am hating it - I have to make myself do it rather than the 10 other projects I want to work on because I know they'll love it and I have to get it done before the baby comes. And I'm wasting way too much time playing lego Batman on the wii and checking facebook.
How's that for an update? :-)
Oh, and we have to have to have to get a handle on our spending and our budget. We're making less than we ever have but we haven't adjusted our spending. My "close my eyes and cover my ears" way of dealing with it just isn't working on this one!
Yikes!!
