I am working a LOT.
Rachel learned to sit up last Monday night, 5 days before her 6 month birthday, and 1 day after we took photos in which sitting up would have been extremely helpful. Now here she is just one week later, moving from very wobbly to just moderately so. It's almost to the point where I could leave her sit and run out of the room without fear she's tip backward and brain herself. I could not be more damn proud.
Meanwhile, Matthew's maybe missing me a bit, either that or hitting terrible 3's early. He's on a terribly frustrating downward bedtime spiral, right at the time Rachel's fine-a-leeeee back to sleeping through the night and going to bed easily. Take 20 minutes to wrestle him in bed, and at least 45 minutes to keep him there. Last night I heard the last remants of him reciting his "Cars" book to himself in bed, well into the 10pm hour. Then we had a couple night time wake-ups involving yelling, tears and tucking back in at the 3am and 5am hours.
Send toddler drugging pills, please.
I am counting the minutes to vacation.
I am stressed.
But Mike is keeping the trains on the tracks at home, thank God.
That's all I got. Just ... wish me luck with returning to regularly scheduled posting/sleeping/breathing, soon.

I can attest that you are working ... A LOT. (I kind of stare at you when I look up from my desk.) Our team is lucky to have you even though we all wish the work was at a more manageable pace. Hang in there, keep on truckin' and keep that vacation countdown top of mind!
