Some changes 'round here....

It was a monumental week at our home.

I went back to work after 4 years of being "home"

with my babies....however, I never stayed home much, we

were always on the go, playdates, going to the park, 

hitting up Target, that's the kind of stuff we would do.

I am happy that I didn't miss a thing in my kids life,

but I wasn't happy with it all of the time.  Some stages were

better than others...overall it was tough.  My kids are 19 months apart.

But, I know there are a million Moms out there who have it tougher.

Everything that's worthwhile

in life is usually not easy, right?  

Here's a pic of our first day...

I am in a sales role for a software company.

My job is to sell a social marketing tool.

I am supposed to be on Facebook and any social 

marketing tool, all day long.

It fits my personality perfectly,

needless to say...I am in love!  

I was thinking I could blog about the whole experience..

you know working vs. working out of the home.

But, it's a bit controversial and I feel there are less choices

on the matter in this day...let me know if you want to know my 

thoughts, I could create a "series" on the subject.

I will always give my shoutouts to stay-at-home Moms,

not because it's the "better" choice, its simple.is.one.million.times.harder.

I know, I did it for 4 years.

My biggest shout out will be to Branmuffin, he has truly

embraced his new roles of juggling the schedules, and

making us a better team than we ever were.  He even

does Tatum's hair...I think he has mastered a braid!

Overall, I will compartmentalize my time much better than I

did before.  When I am with my family/kids, I am with them.

I am soaking up every second with them and 

making it "special" and I didn't do that very well before.  

I had things to get done or things I wanted for myself.

I became an Auntie again, sweet little Piper was born

in a fast and furious way and we couldn't wait

to see her sweetness....

...newborns are so sweet and tiny and I can't

wait to see who this girl is gonna be!

Welcome to this crazy world, Piper.

You are already so loved, and I happen to know

you have the best parents and big sister, ever!

We also hit the Pepperfest parade this weekend, 

which is now becoming quite a tradition!

The kids just can't believe that a place exists 

where people throw candy at you!

If you ever need something to do on the cheap.

Take your kids to a parade, their happiness is

out-of-this-world!

Turner spent his time flirting with the parade princesses...

it could have been because he popped

his collar and his Daddy did his hair that

morning too!

And it wouldn't be "So Stinkin' Cute" around here

if I didn't recommend a product I am in love with!

A good friend wears this and I always caught myself

leaning in to smell her.

Kai Perfume

It's so fab, I simply can't take it!

They offer a whole group of products,

and I can see it always being on my list of things

I can't get enough of.

Clean and fresh and I got it at Amazon.com, its a bit 

hard to find in stores.

Toodles...stay with me, I have more

to juggle, but I will never give up the blog!
