So, it's been a bit.
Life is crazy. So crazy. Just when you almost have things figured out you realize every day really is just a toss up. Fortunately, the constant changes have all been in my favor, even if it doesn't seem like it at the time.
Since August I've started a new, fabulous job. I have amazing co-workers, bosses and employees. I have stability. I can take my kiddos to school in the mornings and pick them up in the afternoon. It's pretty much heavenly.
The kids are now 10 years (girl-L) and 8 months (boy-Z) (tomorrow). We celebrated that 10th Birthday in a big way. We've gotten our first tooth (Sept 13th it officially broke through!). We had our first Halloween together. I had the cutest little witch and fire fighter. We are crawling...errrr scooting/bouncing. We had our first, and definitely not last, meltdown with L. Homework is not our favorite thing. And just in case anyone was wondering, Common Core SUCKS! I can't even help her with her homework because I still haven't figured out what all of the dots and boxes represent. Needless to say, 23 and no kids to 24 and two is sometimes a struggle, but definitely worth it!
Oh yeah, I turned 24 since my last post! I now consider myself officially in my mid-20's. Kind of depressing, kind of cool...I guess.
I went on another cruise. This time to Grand Turk (Love!), Half Moon Cay (Love, Love!) and back to Nassau (Third time here so not really anything new but still beautiful!). It was a good time but I've definitely decided extended vacations are better spent with friends than family. I love them but I cannot deal with the gripey people that are my family (mostly aunts and uncles). Either way, I got to see new, beautiful places and I met some really cool new people! South Beach is still up there on my list of favorite places, too.
Anyways, there it is. A little bit about life recently. I'm going to get back in to the swing of things now that things are starting to calm down a bit. I'm super excited about the upcoming holidays and can't wait to share my favorite recipes, decorations, traditions, etc.!!
Loves! <3
if you ever need clarification on the common core crap, call me! C can explain it to you. He's not a fan either, i think it's ridiculous that they make it so parents can't help kids! You are incredible for taking on so much so young, but I have no doubt you're making the biggest difference in the lives on your kiddos.
ReplyDeletei vote lets do a trip somewhere warm soon. Winter isn't even here yet and i'm freezing.
Sweet! I will most definitely take you up on that!
ReplyDeleteA trip to anywhere would be fabulous at this point! Lets plan!
