Getting back into the swing…


I’m still not 100% sure I’d say were back in the complete swing. But we’re off the park bench , in the seat and pumping our legs.

This week was interesting. This week was successful. This week was also completely exhausting!  After 10 glorious weeks away, getting used to all of the changes is tough. Between working during the week and balancing home chores and our kids after work hours, my body is in shock right now.  My shins and calves are killing me from wearing heels again for the first time in FOREVER.  My eyelids are heavy by noon.  And once I sit down at the end of the day…I may as well not get back up because it makes me completely crabby.  I feel like I’ve run a marathon by the time I’m leaving my parents house in the morning…and my day hasn’t really even started yet!  All the while, my laundry is piling up by the second.  My household and grocery lists are mounting as I type. I also am watching the dirt collect on my bathroom sink, and my kitchen floors are laughing at me for trying to do a deep cleaning on them last week.  Like I said…I’m exhausted and my work hasn’t even really begun!

Through all of the changes mentioned above though, I haven’t even mentioned the most important and difficult change.  I’ve missed those two little creatures who I call my sons something terrible.  I woke this morning (Thursday) so very thankful for my part-time schedule.  So thankful that tomorrow…I get to snuggle in my sweats till whatever time I want.  I get to have kisses all morning long from Owen, feed Cooper his first, second and third bottle of the day and just enjoy being home!  It’s going to be wonderful and marvelous and I just might bust out into song!  And no amount of laundry, dirt or household anything else is going to stop that from being my only job tomorrow morning!  I get to be Momma in the AM…and it’s going to be blessed!!
