[lauren in hi]

I know I haven't been around much since my last update, whenever that was. Life is still pretty hectic...right now I'm supposed to be cleaning my house because my ILs are coming for dinner and Joshua's party (which is not here) is tomorrow...but I have to eat my breakfast so I'm multi-tasking now, LOL.

Abby has been sick a lot recently. I feel so bad for her. She hasn't gone to a full week of school for the last 3 weeks.

Joshua's good...he made one on Monday. I haven't uploaded pics yet from that. He had a very sad time when we came home that day...he was in a lot of pain from teething (he normally cuts in multiples) so he's crying in a lot of the pictures we took then. He's not walking yet, but he will sometimes stand on his own. He's apparently taken steps, but I have yet to see that b'c he won't do it for me.

Other than that...I'm going through a bit of personal drama so I think that if I did have time to post I'd probably seem extremely bitter. Hopefully it'll all work itself out, though.

Hopefully I will have time to stop in soon w/ some recent pics. Hope everyone and their LOs are doing well!

It's good to hear from you Lauren.

Happy Belated Birthday to Joshua!!

He must be so big now, and Abby too. I'm so sorry to hear she's not been well and I hope she makes a full recovery soon.

We were worried about you when we heard of the tsunami threat from the Chile earthquake and was so relieved when they panned out to be nothing.

Sorry about the drama that's going on. I hope it works itself out soon.

Continue to take care of yourself and you family.

Thanks for the update! I'm sorry that theres a bit of drama going on. Hopefully that'll soon be over and happiness will be here to stay (most of the time).

Sorry Abby's been sick! Do you know whats wrong with her?

Thanks for the update! I cannot believe Joshua is one! I feel bad for Abby - I had a little one sick for a while and I know it stinks to see your kids sick. I hope your other drama works out soon! Please post pics - we would love to see them!

Thanks for making time for an update! I'm sorry things aren't going well in your personal life... I hope that changes soon. Like Mari said, we were totally worrying about you during the tsunami threat.

Happy birthday to Joshua!!

It was good to hear from you Lauren! I think about you a lot, especially when we were all worried the tsnuami was going to hit HI. I hope everything works out okay with the drama going on and I hope Abby starts feeling better soon. I can't believe Joshua is one! Wow!
