Oh, hi 2013.

It seems like I've fallen into a pattern of updating every 2 months. I guess it could be worse. It could definitely be better. At any rate, it's a new year. My daughter is turning a year old in less than a month, and I don't know where the time went.

Things have been really good for the most part. Ada is more fun and entertaining every day. I've started a new position at work which I love, and have wanted for a long time. I look forward to most days during the week and am just generally more content. There was a time when Ada was tiny that I felt the ground had been yanked from under me and I'd never find my footing again. But now I feel that everything has fallen into place so amazingly and I love each day's challenges and rewards.

Ryan and I have tentatively decided that come June, we will stop actively trying to NOT add another little human to our family. Assuming we are still in an ok financial situation. It doesn't mean I'm going to start charting my ovulation and basal temperature fluctuations like a crazy person again just yet, but I won't be taking my pill anymore. I'm excited to be nearing that time again. And nervous of course. But 100% happy.

So that's where I'm at right now. At the end of the day, I'm in a good place right now and feeling fulfilled and confident. I'm going to ride it out as long as I possibly can.
