I admit it...

...I stink at keeping this blog updated.

Life has been nothing short of chaos over the past two weeks, and I'm beginning to wonder something. Did I make Mackenzie a Vacation Countdown Calendar...or did I really make it for myself? Since she barely pays attention to it, I will assume that I made it for myself and Brian (as he's counting the days until vacation as well).

I need a break..and not from a KitKat bar. (However, that sounds really good about now.)

I'm super excited to go on vacation for several reasons:
1. It's VACATION!
2. I need to get out of the city
3. both sets of parents are going on this trip. Kaching! Built-in childcare.
4. I need sunshine and warmth (you've been doing a better job, Chicago, but it's still not good enough).

There are a few things I dread about the trip...not the least of which is the long hours in the car or the fact that we are indeed visiting the "house of mouse" to appease and entertain the small child. (I think she's more excited about riding rides than seeing Mickey & Minnie and the princesses.)

Nevertheless, I will suffer the car ride and the "house of mouse" for my sanity's sake. I have never felt quite so worn down and burnt-out in quite a while. I think this second pregnancy has severely taken it's toll..and I still have 3 1/2 months to go.

Vacation...get here, and get here soon before I have a complete mental breakdown
