How Do You Do It All??

No I didn't fall off the face of the earth.  No I didn't forget about my blog.  No I didn't decide to stop blogging.  I STARTED BACK TO WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!  How in the hell do women do it all?  I mean cook, clean, pick up kids, take care of kids, workout, work, and manage to give the love of your life the attention he needs.  I started back working when the kids went back to school in August and I have just felt like I am on a roller coaster ride ever since.  Have you ever watched the movie Finding Nemo and remembered where they kept telling Dori to keep swimming...well remove Dori's name and insert the name Aimee.  I feel awful that I haven't kept everyone up to date but I think I am trying to keep my brain up to date and then hoping that the rest will fall into place.  What's been going on you say...well...the biggest development is that my sister Robin is CANCER FREE!!!!!!!!!!  She had her mastectomy at the beginning of August and there were no more traces of cancer in her body.  We are so happy for her and excited that she does not have to undergo radiation therapy.  Why didn't I blog about that you ask...well I could give you a litany of reasons but the real reason is that I just haven't had a chance to stop and do it.  What I can tell you is that she is doing very well and will undergo her reconstruction very soon.  I am just so happy that she is moving forward.  

Little KRB is doing well.  She will be eight months old on September 15 and I am not believing how fast time flies by.  She hates to eat food.  I don't know how we are going to over come this either because every time we try to feed her, she starts gagging and turning her head.  We go for the dreaded shots on Friday and we are hoping to get some answers when we go.  She's now under the care of my mother-in-law everyday and I am sure that they are excited about seeing her everyday.  Especially her Granddaddy who gets to snuggle with KRB every day.  It does give me quite a peace of mind to know that she is with family all day.  However, the first day she went was super hard for me.  She's leaving with her daddy around 6:30 am every morning so that he can be to work by 7:00 am and I hate the idea that she's gone that early.  She usually doesn't get home until 6:00 pm and it's just hard for me to not see her all day. I have so much mommy guilt all day because I feel like she's being shuffled around so much all day. I know I need that break and she probably does too but I'm over it now.  I am hoping that for the next school year, I will be able to job share so that I can spend more time with her.  Job sharing in teaching means that you share the position with another teacher and one week you work 3 days and the other week you work 2 days.  Pretty nice but the salary matches the amount of time you put in.  It's a trade off but if I can spend more time at home, I will take it.  Here are some pics of the princess:
