The last few weeks have confirmed for me that I would have a really, really, really hard time going back to office life. I had all day meetings downtown last week starting at 8am and work events in the evening. I guess that is a normal work schedule, but I was depressed by the end of the week. I didn't get to take Charlie to school, I didn't get to pick him up, I didn't get to put them to bed, I didn't get to exercise and I ate gross food all week. It will be a bad day when I have to go back to an office setting full-time.
This weekend we went to visit my college friend in Richmond. They have a 2.5 year old and some how they dealt with us staying over with our 2 monsters as well. The boys played so hard until they nearly collapsed around 10pm and we stayed up talking until it was even too late for me. I was so paranoid that Charlie would pee in the bed that when I went to sleep I picked him up, held him over the toilet and turned on the faucet. He was fast asleep, but managed to go pee and straight back to bed. Luckily everything was dry the next morning. Here are the kids at Charlie's classmate's birthday party. It was a raucous party - they had a DJ literally blaring music. There was also a bouncey house, face painting and a crazy spread of southern food. Charlie got his face painted but then continued to play so hard that by the end of the party he had sweat the paint off and looked like a crazy man.
The backyard is still under construction....I'm hoping that it'll be usable this summer. It is still a pile of dirt, but Carlos promises that I can have an easter egg hunt in less than a month. hmmm. I suppose there are lots of good hiding places under the wood scraps and construction debris....
