I made it!

Winter vacation is here! Two weeks to catch up on sleep, folding clothes, and all the other things that have been ignored since I went back to work. Awesome!!

People ask all the time how things are going with being back at work. The short answer? It is hard. Really really hard.

The longer answer is that I do miss Corbin a lot while I am gone, but we have a great person watching him so that isn't so bad. It is the lack of down time that makes it so hard and the many things that are still undone even though I feel like i am going all the time. Like there are 3 baskets of clean clothes still unfolded after a week. I hate that!

You don't even want to know about the grading pile.

But I try to be my best at wherever I am at that time. Best teacher from 7:30-4. Best mom and wife the rest of the time.

Enough whining from me. Enjoy the real reason you came to the blog- pictures of the baby boy.


Kisses(?) for Sophie the giraffe. It is so amazing how good he had gotten at grabbing stuff...and then navigating it to his mouth.


Trying out new toys. Tom is much better than me at checking to see if he is up for new stuff. Probably why he rolled over (both directions!) the first time on days with Dad.


Before big tests I try to hold study sessions at Starbucks in the evening for my juniors. Corbin joined us this past week. The students loved it!


Ahhh!! Fell asleep last nite while we set up tables for his Uncle Mark and Aunt Katies wedding reception.

And that is today's adventure...more to come on that later.
