I'm Sorry; & Maire's 15+16 month updates

I couldn't keep my promise to myself. I totally overshot myself and what I could do. Shortly after my last post we finally go the opportunity to move. I had two weeks to pack everything I wanted to bring cross-country and line up plane tickets and all of that. It was really stressful.

Then the actual move took place and I've just been chilling out trying to get back into the groove of things. We conceived and experienced a loss in three weeks. We've had a lot going on.

                                                                                                                                       


Maire has intellectually burst the past 6 weeks. I don't even know how to explain how much. It has come at a price though - she has begun temper tantrums. I know I forgot some stuff but I will have to add them later.
