Welcome back sanity!

Hi there, Kiddies! I know that it has been awhile, but I have been awfully busy/tired. As I said before, I am working on a new project for work. This is requiring my brain be in use and I am apparently rusty with limited useage. Also, my family came to visit and left yesterday. I am finally feeling a little more relaxed (although I am very upset over the sudden onset of purple bags under my eyes). We bought a new car - pictures below. Right now, there is nothing on our plates for the near future, and I am really enjoying this. I really feel as though a weight has been lifted from my shoulders since yesterday morning. I am loving life again and enjoying my own little niche here in Chicagoland.

Olivia and Mia are doing well. Olivia is growing ever taller and has been invited to her first birthday party. The twins in her class are having a mani/pedi party and Olivia is excited to go. I'll let you all know how that turns out! Mia is slowly getting used to eating cereal. She was having a blast today banging on her high chair table and blowing cereal back at us. We broke down and bought a bumbo chair today and a cart cover since we have decided that it is time to put that carrier away.

Tony is well. He and I have switched our routines. Tony is now the evening/supper man and I am the morning/breakfast lady. We have had to switch to accomodate my longer commute to the new project for work. He is out on his motorcycle with Linas right now because the weather is beautiful and he is enjoying it!
