Quick note

It's too crazy around here to post some pictures, but I wanted to at least say that we're home from N.C. We had a great visit! It's back to the real world now. I started orientation today. Riley and Colter did well. I sure do appreciate all the extra work that working mothers do to get their kids ready for the next day. Yikes! Since Thanksgiving is on its way, I thought I'd list a few things we're especially grateful for right now:
2 good little travelers (It's amazing!)
safe travels
a new job for me
we think we have childcare figured out
good friends who are willing to keep the kids this week
wonderful families
healthy children (this job definitely won't let me take this for granted)

That's all for now.

Gotcha!

Jeff and I are constantly finding Colter with his sock in his mouth. I could care less except a soggy sock makes for a cold foot. I thought I'd caught him at it again, but this time it was Riley who had his sock! Why should she let her feet get cold?Riley and Colter love sitting on the floor and taking toys out of the toybox. I enjoy watching them paying attention to what the other one is playing with.
Governor is usually close at hand to see if there's anything he'd like to snag. We lost a little wrist rattle the other day. I still think he's doing well though, considering he's only ruined three little toys so far.Gigi and Papa Jim stopped by tonight to say goodbye to the babies. I'm taking them to N.C. tomorrow to see the Raleigh side of their family before I start my new job. We'll be back on Thursday!

A House Divided

Our family has voted. Too bad we only have pictures of the three Democrats in the family.
Look how excited they are! FYI, this is not our yard. Jeff and I try not to get into politics with each other too often. It never ends up being much fun.
Of course they'll be making their own decisions about politics when they grow up. However, I did enjoy walking to the polls with them and having them be a part of things.
They even got their own Georgia Voter stickers.
