Wow! I think this is the longest I have ever gone between blog entries. It's indicative of what's going on in our life right now. The adjustment to three children, a new job with lots of hours for Scott, and me doing all of the kid shuffling while working part time has left very little time for anything else. I'll do a quick recap of the last month.
After a month and a half of solid ear infections Will had tubes put in on November 25. The procedure was fast and easy and he was feeling great shortly afterwards. He slept through the night for the first time in two months! He hasn't done it again regularly, darn.
The next day I had some basal cell skin cancer removed. I had to wear this beast of a bandage for 4 days and couldn't lift anything heavier than 5 pounds for two weeks. Wouldn't be a problem if I didn't have three children under the age of 6. Scott had to adjust his work schedule to do all of the daycare drop offs and pick ups for a week. I had 25 stitches but the scar is healing nicely.
The next day Scott took the kids to his parent's house to celebrate Thanksgiving. This gave me a nice 24 hour break from kids demanding things from me. And gave the kids some great time at Grammy's and Papa's.
Earlier this month Scott got to escape for his annual deer hunting weekend.
Because I was still on my lifting restriction Grandma Joan and Papa Jake had to come to town to help me out. The girls got to see the Nutcracker and take a horse drawn trolley ride.
Last Friday night we started our Christmas cookies and finally wrapped them up on Sunday.
We ended the weekend with our annual giving event.
Charlie was adorable at her preschool holiday program. Her class started singing their first song and one girl started stomping her foot. Before we knew it the entire class was stomping their feet and you couldn't hear a word they were singing. Too cute!
