Today was a pretty low key day. Work has been going good. I've been keeping on top of my work for a while now, and it feels SO good. I have enough to keep me busy throughout the day, but I don't feel like I'm constantly falling behind. A very nice change in pace!
I don't think I've mentioned it before, but Christian is going to be traveling to Mexico sometime in the coming months. His grandma, who basically raised him for years after his mom moved to the states, has become very ill. She was diagnosed with Stage 2 Cancer (I'm not sure exactly where the cancer is), and is going downhill fairly quick. So, understandably, Christian wants to go visit her. Today he went to renew his Passport ($100.00, seriously?!), and we've been checking out airfare. It's over $600.00 for a roundtrip flight right now?!? I don't understand why it has to be so freaking expensive! So, we've been trying to figure all of that out, and I've been dealing with it all OK. Tonight, he informs me that his mom would like to go with him (not on our dime or anything) - which kind of bothers me. It frustrates me, knowing the bind that puts me in. Not only is Christian going to be gone for X amount of time, but now I'm supposed to take off work and/or arrange childcare for the kids while he's gone because his mom is going to? (which, I know I'll get over with a little time to process). It would just be nice if she could go on her own, another time...when Christian AND I can split the child responsibilities. I'm wondering if it was really her idea...or his anyway...
Ugh.
Other than that little news, it was a good day. I got my walks and workout in. Ate good. I feel like I'm really hitting my stride. Tonight's workout was full on kick-boxing, and it pretty much kicked my ass. Ouch.

We reverted back to putting Amelia to bed first at night, then Olivia once Amelia is asleep - after Sunday's fiasco. It's been working the last couple nights, so looks like we'll be sticking with that. Those girls can't be trusted!
Here is a picture of the girls, playing in the laundry baskets. A favorite past time around here. Which, is why my laundry basket is completely destroyed.
