Christmas break

I can't believe it has been two months since I have updated.  I am so busy.  We have been traveling like crazy for Christmas.  We went to SC for almost a week and ended up having to stay an extra day in SC because of the snow.  Yeah snow in SC, too crazy.  It was good to see family and I loved that we stayed in a hotel room on the way back.  I think that we were a wee bit crazy to drive for 15 hours in one day with two kids. It was a very long trip.  We learned our lesson and split up the trip on the way home.

In SC, Judah started walking along the furniture.  He is also really afraid of dogs.  He let out a high pitched cry when our friends, Jimmy and Pam's dog came near him. 

We also learned that Ian really likes to dump out coins.  He dumped out all of Jimmy's coins twice.  Jimmy was a little upset about picking them up off a wood floor.  Rather daunting task, Can't say I blame them.

Ian had a great time playing with Lexzi.  We played tag, and with the kitchen, digging in the dirt with trucks (Ian's favorite pastime).  My best and most memorable moment is riding the golfcart with Courtney, Lexzi, Mom, Will and Judah.  I figured out a way to get the most air haha.  I couldn't resist.  Judah even fell asleep in my lap, not when I was driving of course.

It was great times of building memories.  Now we are at Gena and Steves for my family Christmas.  It hasn't been rushed and crazy, like holidays usually are so that is good.  It is so good for Ian to be able to play with his cousins.  Maya was having a blast with getting Judah to grunt over and over, and laughing hysterically.  We were also making up silly rhymes.

Travelling is great but man I will be glad to not have to drive over 15-20 minutes when I get home, but not looking forward to cleaning the mess we left.

I am having a hard time knowing I am going back to work on Monday.  It kind of dampens my week.  I really wish things were as they were before, with me being able to stay home with my kids.  I had so much more time and attention and energy to give to them than I do now, even when I try.  I feel like I am doing them an injustice. I am just praying that somethow God may work in this all, it seems impossible to make it 4 more months with this job when only 3 has gone by.  My heart is definitely with my babies, a career isn't even important to me right now, so it is hard to change my attitude into working mentality.

It will be nice to see all of my friends: seems like its been too long since we have talked and spent time together.
