filling in the blanks.

While I was on my blogging/facebook/twitter hiatus (which was really nice BTW) we kept busy in the Sell household. Not everything is fun to talk about, like the multiple meltdowns that I had...which I would like to forget even happened. Paul was amazingly supportive and understanding. I really would not have made it through without all the "you can do this" talk I got from everyone...ya'll know who you are.

Here is a lil' recap on what went on leading up to our baby Vin's arrival...I had been working on getting Van into a charter school for Kindergarten. It is ridiculously hard in Utah, or maybe I just thought it was. I had no hope, and voila...the one that I had really wanted her to attend called me with an offer. I am still so excited, and yet nervous for my little girl to go to the big bad world by herself.

I worked up until a few days before my induction day. I kept my coworkers entertained with doing jumping jacks and squats in my cubicle. I even decided that my bestie Landon needed his desk decorated for his 12th anniversary working at the RC-dub. If you are reading this Landon...I expect a grand party upon my arrival back to work, and also for my 13th anniversary. Heartcha.

There was lots of movies, including Alice in Wonderland in 3D, just for our Van. We partied with a birthday girl named Abby, and had so much fun seeing Van's first play. We shopped, cleaned, played in the snow, and I even found time to break in the rocking chair before Vin arrived. We had a few vending adventures that were ridiculous. I am sure we looked absolutely comical...Paul and his very pregnant wife trying to help him get these babies in...it was no easy task. I secretly hoped it would send me into labor, but that would have been too easy.We all tried coaxing Vin out early, but what can I say...I must have been feeding him too good, or he was scared to come out because of all the screaming that went on of "Come out now, dang it!

It feels good to be back to myself. I'm not saying that I will be as good at updating the next few weeks, but who can blame me when I have all this sweet baby goodness at my pad. =)
