Dropping the ball

in Boise. We have had all sorts of weather today. Which brings me to a point, I have seriously dropped the ball on this whole blogging thing. I was super excited, but then life happened. Things got out of hand fast in March. We learned shortly after my last post that the Pete and Joe show was to be moved to afternoons. This put quite a damper on the schedule we had worked out with me and Lil in the a.m. and daddy and Lil in the afternoons. Our childcare situation was quickly helped by my glorious bosses. I met with them and they quickly let me know that my schedule could be as flexible as needed. WHAT A BLESSING!! Lily and Pete have the morning shift now, and Lily and I have all afternoon to play! This is not to say that there haven't been many bumps, but our immediate fears of having to put Lily in daycare were to put rest. We figure we can work out any future problems as they present themselves.
Lily and I took a quick trip to California, as it is/was(?) March Madness and daddy is more than entertained without us! Good times~ We got to see EVERYONE!! Almost ;)
Busy, busy, busy. Flying with a 16month old alone is not recommended, but we worked it out.
We learned upon our arrival that Bab's (Babaka, Babushka) had broken her hip and needed surgery. She made it through just fine, but this put a snafu in our return plans. Nanny and Poppy had planned to drive us home, but Nanny flew with Lily and I instead. I had to leave far too much wine at Nanny and Poppy's house ;( Wine that we desparately needed on the flight home!! They will be up in May to stay with Lily for a few days so Pete and I can go par-tay in Vega$ for my 30th!!!So scary, but I am not freaking out nearly as bad as I did at 25.
Lily had her 15 month appointment ( a little late. She was 16 months on March 21st!)
She is tall for her age. Her head is more of a normal size (whew!) she is now in the 95%. Her head had been at an even 100% for the first year of her life. Don't laugh! She'll hate us for years for sharing this! She is super chatty and is on the verge of turning 2, if you catch my drift. Granted , we have had a quite a bit going on, but come on, kid! She no longer goes to sleep like a princess. There is more of a struggle to eat and go to sleep. She is the master of stalling now. Holy moly, is this my kid or what??!!
Her hair is out of control~ Her new name is Philly Mae Spector.


Happy Spring to all! I say this on a super blustery day
