Time is Flying..

Whew, it's been a crazy year and I can't believe we are in the last month of 2011! Really? Already?   As fast as this year has gone we have so much to be thankful for and have so much to look forward to in 2012! (I don't like writing that) Our little guy is already 2 weeks old, the two weeks have been a crazy whirlwind I must say, but non the less amazing!

It's crazy how much they change on a daily/weekly basis, I have heard the time goes fast but never did I expect this fast.  Dan started back to work today, and I was not ready at all.  I really enjoyed the last two weeks with him home with us, not just for krypton's sake but it's been great having the quality time with him again without him having to worry about work.

This past weekend we actually left Kypton with my Mom and Dad for an hour and a half.  I wasn't ready but I knew I needed to spend time with Dan, and I think Dan wanted me to get away.  So, for my birthday we did some Christmas shopping and went to see Santa, dropped Kypton off with Grandpa and Grandma and then went to dinner at P.F. Chang's.  It was great to get out for a bit but now I know I will always have that little voice in the back of my head, "you have kids waiting at home."  Again, props for Dan calling my mom to arrange babysitting.

Saturday, we had friends over for dinner, we all have kids now so it was great to get them together even though Kypton is the youngest and slept most of the time.  It's great to see what we have to look forward to in a few short months but also to hear stories of what to expect and how they did things.  Blakely is 7 Months, and Griffin is 4 months, then Kypton is 2 weeks.  It's exciting to know that they will be friends growing up even though none of them will be going to the same schools.

As far as schooling and work goes for me, well I have the rest of December off (Thank God) as of day one on my own I'm understanding why people say to get some sleep! I took an Incomplete for this semester at school, and well depending on some things that we aren't making entirely public at the moment I more than likely won't be going back, and I'm okay with it! I love being with Kypton and the thought of not being the one who raises him or missing out on his first breaks my heart...so I'm not thinking about it :)

We don't have any doctors appointments this week, and Dan doesn't like the idea of me going out with Kypton alone yet, however, I said I can't be in the house for the next month, so he's going to have to work on that, we are just going to hang out, keep the laundry caught up, clean, and make sure dinner is ready when Daddy gets home :)

Hopefully everyone had a wonderful weekend, and is starting the week out on the right foot!
Stay warm!

Love,
The Buchholz 5 :)
