It's been a while. A looong while. So long that it's uncomfortable.
How do I say 'hello' again?
Hi?... Hello?... What's up?.. 'Sup?... Word?... Howdy?... Yo?... Well, look who it is?
Do we shake hands? High Five? Knuckles? Chest bump?
Do we hug? How long do we hug? Will my arms go on top or on the bottom? Or do we mix it up with my right arm on top and the left on the bottom? What if we hug so long that it gets awkward... unless, you like awkward... then I can do awkward.
I'll tell you 'It looks like you've lost weight'. And you can tell me something like 'Wow, it looks like you managed to shower today'. And then we'll both do a quick courtesy laugh in effort to fill the awkward silence that will follow.
You'll sigh, I'll sigh.... and then we can just pick up from where we left off.
...
I'm so glad we were able to get that out of the way.

I'm here. Still alive. Still managing to keep 4 kids alive. Still maintaing my Diet Coke addiction.
We have had some really big changes in the past 4 months. None of which include adding a 5th child to our family.
I'll blog about that stuff later, but for now, I wanted to say a quick hello and post completely non-related pictures just for, you know, kicks and giggles.
