Wow, it has been quite a while since I have written a blog. It has been getting harder to write these days as we have been so busy, but really, I just haven’t felt inspired to write. Since my last post, two of my best girlfriends from graduate school visited us in Portland, I had a wonderful Mother’s day, our house has all new siding and windows, Jason and I got terribly sick (36-48 hour flu), we hosted my colleague’s retirement party (she has been working at the hospital for 20+ years), then hosted my friend’s baby shower, I turned 37 years-old (eek!), we got rid of the kids booster seats at the kitchen table (they are sitting on regular dinner chairs like Jason and myself), bought a zoo membership and have been going to the zoo way too many times (love the monkeys!), Miles ended preschool for the school year (sniff sniff), both Miles and Lila started summer school (yes, I am a Tiger Mom! No relaxing for these kids.), had a fun Father’s Day, I flew to San Antonio to give a lecture, Jason made an edible garden (yay, growing our own organic veggies!), I finished a book (I have been a terrible book club participant this year, so I am quite proud of myself for reading a book in less than 1 month) and I signed a contract to start working at a group practice. Phew! I would say, all in all, it has been good. In a few weeks, Jason turns 41 and we celebrate our 6 year anniversary!
