I often feel about blogging the same way I feel about journal writing. If you have missed some time you don't want to have to go back and recap the last few months (or years). So I will spare you all (if anyone even looks at this anymore . . . if not I don't blame you). Life in the McCarty house has been a crazy one. Ryan is doing two internships, working, getting his masters, trying to be a real estate mogul, a stake executive secretary, and husband/dad. So we often don't see him for more than an hour or two. I would like to say that I do sleep with him, however with my two children make sure that is not always true. Jackson is such a 6 year old boy. He loves LEGO Star Wars: Wii, his best friend Jack, and soccer. Every once and a while he will be a ninja, or Jimmer, or a rock n' roll star. He loves giving his mom attitude and tormenting his little sister. He really is such a great kid. He has such a tender heart, as of late he is so concerned with those that are affected with the Tsunami in Japan. He wants to learn all about it and help in some way. Miley is seriously so cute. She wants to learn how to read so bad. She loves books and I threatened to throw away her barbies and books (because her room was a mess . . . look I was desperate). She didn't even bat an eye until I started taking books away. Belle, and Jasmine and the other princesses could have met their fate in the landfill, but her books are treasures. I hope she keeps with that. She loves to dress up and when her friend Macie comes over you can pretty much bet there are two naked little 3 year olds in there trying on all the dress up clothes. She is now potty-trained, which could not have happened at a better time. She LOVES primary and is a sunbeam this year. I almostly weekly hear fabulous stories about her in sharing time. She is obsessed with Ryan's ipad. When Ryan comes home it is usually "where's your ipad daddy?" I am treking along trying to be a real estate mogul with Ryan, we are flipping two homes right now and currently have 3 rental homes. It is a lot of work to start off, but hopefully it will be a little less crazy in a while. I am also cooking up a storm. I started a food blog which I love to do, talking about food. It is
www.getmeafork.blogspot.com. Because of my love of cooking and food I am also exercising like a mad woman before swim suit season comes along. I am also in Young Women's in my ward which I just love. I feel like I am home. As crazy as life is, I honestly couldn't be happier. Life is good.
