Oct 27-Nov 2

Another great busy week! Monday we played catch up after being in Carmel.  Tuesday we went to stroller strides and hosted Halloween playgroup.  Lily was a zebra that looked more like an 80s workout girl and Piper was an elephant. That night Kristen & Kerry came over to carve pumpkins and watch the Giants game.

We also transitioned Piper into her crib out of the bassinet in our bedroom and she's done great. 
Wednesday at stroller strides was Pirate& Princess themed class.  Lily and I played at the park afterwards. My girls and their tutus :)
Thursday during Lilys nap Megan and Jarelyn came over for a baby play date. Sally stopped by too!
Late Thursday night I picked up my two best friends Stephanie & Shannon from the Airport shuttle drop off.  We realized that I hadn't seen Stephanie since January and Shannon since her wedding in July of 2013! Way too long!

Friday we lounged around and Lily played in the rain for a bit.  That night Kristen & Kerry came over and we all filled up our fancy Halloween goblets and went trick or treating.  Lily was scared at the first few houses but then got the hang of it.
Saturday was Rollirs first full day with both girls while my friends and I went to Napa for the day.  It was so nice to let loose!
Sunday morning we all went out to breakfast and then Shannon, Piper and I drove down to the city for a little shopping.

In the thick of it

Hopefully monthly blogging won't become a habit.  Life has just been crazy.  April was a big blur. We host a bi annual pick up party at work and for the months of April and October I'm pretty much a working like mad or exhausted from working like mad.  Then it took a week to feel normal again! I'm also working split days at the moment (off on Sunday/Tuesday) and its really not fun.  I can't truly enjoy a weekend and its really hard to decompose on Sundays knowing that I have to work the next day.  Hopefully I only 2 more months of it until Piper can start at Lily's preschool/daycare. Rollie was a rock-star Dad as always, taking care of not only the girls but me too.  I know there were days that I was grumpy and not myself.  They did come to visit me one day during the craziness and that helped! Lily is wonderful 90% of the time and a threenager the other 10%.  It's absolutely amazing what a 3.5 year old absorbs and their tiny little imaginations are just the

May (or better known as my Birthday Month)

I took the girls to the Museum again-it was a hot one! That afternoon we enjoyed some Popsicles on the deck. One night after work we made a Home Depot run and then decided it was too hot to cook so we took the girls to Pieology. We brought bagels to the teachers for Teacher Appreciation Week. We celebrated May The 4th with our Star wars gear. I had a work dinner one evening and we spoiled my Manager with baby stuff for his soon to be baby girl. Lily, Ariya & Ensley had their first official sleepover at Ensleys house. We had framily over for a late cinco de mayo dinner. My mom sent the girls super cute matching dresses. Rollie set up a day date for us in Napa.  We went to Freemark Abbey, Goose & Gander for lunch and then Cardinale.  It was such a lovely day just the two of us.  Janet was in town so she hung out with Piper and Lily went to Kerry and Kristen's and enjoyed the pool and a nap on the Farm.

My latest read...

I have lots to blog about, Chicago, Michigan, our recent weekend in San Fran...but this comes first.  Last week I was doing my usual 'before bedtime Facebook scan', and I came across a post from a High School friend.  Maggie had posted an article about Natalie Taylors new memoir, 'Signs of Life'.  I knew it was going to be released  this Winter/Spring but it had slipped my mind.  I immediately went onto Amazon and ordered it.  I got the book Thursday and I'll be done tonight (I have 2 more chapters to go).  I'm not a fast reader.  Rollie can back me up on this one.  I got about 6 books for Christmas and I've only finished one so far, and I'm in the middle of two others.  Rollie would have had all of them finished and probably would have bought a few more by now. But back to the point.  A little background on Natalie...Natalie was married to Josh Taylor, one of my closest friends brother and someone that I grew up with.  Josh passed away instantly from a
