Yes... I am very aware that I have not been a regular blogger lately. I have excuses.. not that you care, but still I have excuses! Ok... so returning to work and 2 kids is VERY time consuming! That's right, I admit it. I returned back to work (as a middle school librarian) on Tuesday, December 1. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT. On Tuesday I was extremely choked up walking into the school building... and just couldn't wait for the day to end so I could go home with my family! I know it will all get better the days pass but returning to the school with 2 new administrators, lots of new (but friendly) faces for staff, and an entire 6th grade class that I don't know seemed to bring on a bit of anxiety!
Though we all spent much of the time sick...I enjoyed time off with my family very much! We spent so much quality time bonding, loving eachother and doing super fun things... I wasn't truly ready to break from the family routine. I can't say that after 4 days back to school I am adjusted but I think this week will be better than last.
Yesterday, our little Po saw Santa for the first time!
When he saw him he pointed at him and then began clapping! He wasn't afraid to sit on his lap but he wasn't really thrilled either:( He unwrapped his first present... a little fire station... although I think he enjoyed eating the paper more than the gift itself!
Shasha was so happy that it snowed yesterday!!!
We got about 5 or 6 inches here at our house. It was very pretty but Oh my... she drove me crazy! It was 4:30 pm when we finally came home from the Christmas Party and all she wanted to do was go out and play in the snow! So... 30 minutes of dressing the kids and we went outside to play in the cold snow IN THE DARK!!!! Shasha was in all her glory... Po not so much! He actually hated it. I sat him down in his Ralphy-like snowsuit and he did a faceplant right into the snow. HE SCREAMED!!!!! Maybe we will have better luck next time! What is so neat is that Shasha is at just the right age to LOVE SNOW... LOVE SANTA... AND LOVE CHRISTMAS! I am very excited that she is very excited!I will have to continue later because I just got the call to go pick up Shasha from her playdate... hmmmm... that could be another reason I had time to blog a bit... Shasha wasn't talking my ear off:)

Hey Jami
Sorry to hear that your first days back to work were not ideal. It is so frustrating to know that all the time we were waiting for our babies time crept by and now that they are home it is flying. Not fair. It is so fun to have everyone home and heading into the holidays. Thanks for the great pictures and updates. I am alsways checking in but don't usually do not have time to comment.
