Hey, December!
One of the things that made me the most happy about loosing my job is the opportunity to be home with my kids through the holidays. Â For me, life working outside the home is just too chaotic to do much of anything. Â I am excited to spend our days this month preparing for Christmas! Â We will be taking our days slow, not having to bundle ourselves in the freezing weather each morning, and doing every Christmas project/activity/craft we can come up with. Â These are just things I can’t quite squeeze into the short evenings and weekends as a working mama. Â So many of you rock the working mom thing and I envy you.
Yesterday started as a pretty horrendous day. Â Paityn refused to take a nap and Brady decided to take every bad thing he could do and just cross them off the list back to back. Â We loaded up and went to the store just to get the heck out of the house and hope that maybe a change of scenery would help. Â It did, and we picked up a toy for the little boy we chose from the Angel Tree. Â Brady, despite of his earlier attitude, was an absolute darling choosing a toy for who he called Nardo.
Santa left a box on our doorstep on Saturday with a new Christmas tradition.
Brady named him Joseph which he pronounces as Jo-fist and continually calls him his Jesus doll. Â He’s catching on. Â We’ve moved him around each morning but aren’t doing anything elaborate with the little guy.
I am so excited for the month of December and spending every day with my babies.
