Let's Start Again!

Ok, ok, I know--my last post was February 29th.   So, you ask, where have I been for the past 3 months?  Well, let's just say in a house selling frenzy (or lack thereof) since our house is still on the market.  Seriously though, house selling has been the worst.  We have had tons of showings, open houses, a second showing that didn't result in anything because of the stupid dumpsters.  Then there was a 2nd birthday for Kiley, a trip to Arizona, our first house falling through which resulted in us putting in an offer on another house (which thankfully, we got and are for sure moving in August, a 1st birthday for Ella, running my first half marathon, cleaning, cleaning, and oh yeah, more cleaning.  As of this point, like I said we are for sure moving in August and I am starting to get excited.  The girls are signed up for preschool for Kiley three days a week and Parent's Day Out for Ella two days a week.  I found my new gym, which of course is oh so important!  So as of tomorrow we have 2 months left in the city and I plan to make the most of it--in between packing up some boxes of course.  I swear I think that home selling process definitely put me in a rut for the past couple of months.  If you know me--uncertainty is not a great place for me.  I am a list maker, planner, schedule follower, so when things are up in the air, I am not in a good place.  I know the next couple of months will be a little crazy with the move, but I think that it will be nothing compared to the unknown.  So, I'm back, and promise to be better about not taking a three month break again.  I remember my reasons for starting my blog in the first place--which was for me to have a place to document this and that around the Pollack household.  Maybe someday I will get back to refreshing everyone on the past couple of months, but then again, maybe I won't so I guess it's just better to start from present day and go with it :) 

We had our family pics taken last Sunday with Katie.  She does such an awesome job captured the true sense of everyone's personality.  I just love looking back at the pictures that she has taken to see how the kids have grown and see their personalities develop in the pictures.  Here's the link to the ones that she posted on her blog http://katieryanphotography.blogspot.com/2012/05/ella-is-1.html.  Check them out--gotta love Kiley and her purse, tounges sticking out, Ella being a picky eater (she barely would even touch the cake!), and the girl's love for their Daddy :)
