103 Days

There are only 103 days left until Christmas.

Does that make anyone else feel a little panicky?

That means Halloween is only 49 days away and Thanksgiving is a mere 73 days away. 

I have dreams of giving quite a few homemade gifts this year and I have a growing Pinterest Board of decorations I would like to make for each holiday but I'm already starting to feel like there's a time crunch.

Oh, and the Balloon Fiesta, which is pretty much like a holiday here in the 505, starts in 18 days! I wanted to crochet a beanie for Addy's first Fiesta and Matt has mentioned wanting a hat of his own and then there are like 10 different scarfs I would like to make for myself. Ah!

So much to do. Too bad I picked a hobby that takes forever.

Guess I better stop lolly gagging around in the blogesphere and get to work!

New "Job"

Today is the first day of my new role as a Stay at Home Mom! I am thrilled and so thankful that I will be able to spend the days with my sweet little girl.

The 2 1/2 weeks I spent at work were not bad at all, but I definitely gained a new respect for working moms. Saying goodbye to Addy and getting out the door on time was the hardest part. I was late every day. How do you ladies do it?

I have a long list of things that I am excited to do now that I am home fulltime.

I am hoping to do more blogging,
Give this sweet girl lots of kisses,

Make and monitor a family budget,
Crochet a pretty blanket,

And snuggle with this cutie pie.

Do you have any fun "To-Do's" this summer?

P.S. Most of these images are from Pinterest... have you discovered the fun to be had on that site yet?
