I'm a Blog Slacker

I have this friend, who may or may not be reading this, and he and his wife post on their blog, like, every other day. I also have a sister who posts even as much as twice a day on hers. Then there's me, who does good to post once a month. I don't know why, because I feel like I spend half my life on the internet. I have these visions of doing better and keeping people more updated. Then I start thinking, if only I didn't have to get all that sleep every night, and waste time with showering every day, and deal with school (only in a different form these days), and lessons and grading, and kids and wifery (is that a word?)...then maybe I'd find time for blogging. But, that's not it. I just get lazy. I mean, lazy only in the sense that something has to give, and unfortunately, it's the blog that goes first. After that it's laundry and cooking, and then sleep. So, all that said, I accept that I'm not as diligent as some of those bloggers out there, even though I periodically worry that people might give up on me. As long as Granny & Papa keep thanking me for blogging (which ultimately is my main motivation), I'll keep on blogging. Onto the pictures, Andy's mom brought his little nephew, Max, over the other day to see the kids. They're in love with him. They get so excited when their Nana comes over, but Max is even better. They smother him and get in his face and squeal and mess with him, so much that he appears to be in shock, not to mention the fact that Andy sings his own gibberish versions of hymns and 80's rock (yes, an odd combination, but Andy is odd) so loud that Max could barely eat for being so distracted. But, it's fun to have him around. He's so sweet. Andy and I have decided that if we can, we'll just keep him ourselves. In fact, Andy told his mom to just leave him with us, but she wouldn't. Then the other pictures are of me and Alli, and then a couple of the kids early in the morning watching their Saturday-morning cartoons.
