January - back to real life


Just a bit of what is going on.

It is January and what a busy month so far. I have changed positions at work and am now underwriting mortgages. I like it a lot, but we are so behind and therefore, the overtime is abundant and I have very little time for much more than work, sleep and just a bit of time at home.

I went to a baby shower yesterday for Chad and Lissy's baby boy. It was put on by friends and family of Claudia, Chad's mom. It was a lovely shower and everyone was very generous in getting Chad, Lissy and baby started on their new life together. Lots of darling outfits, toys and other important baby care items. I even won a prize on one of the games - a cute teacup candle.

In a couple of weeks I will be going to Chicago for a bit of training on my new position. It won't be long term, just a couple of days, but another thing 'cluttering' up the calendar.

After that, we will be going to Indianapolis for our little Lily's 2nd birthday. I can hardly believe it. She has grown into quite a little lady.

In a about a month, Carrie is giving a baby shower for Chad and Lissy's baby, which will include our family and friends. She is in Indianapolis, so we will have it at our home here in Columbus, in order to invite Lissy's friends.

Ultimately it is really good to be busy; I just don't always realize it at the time.

Anyone notice a resemblance?







I just really think that Lily looks like Dora. I decided to really look at them together to either confirm or bust my theory. Still trying to decide. Thoughts????
