Happy Easter

Easter is such wonderful time of year! We celebrate the Resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. He suffered so much and gave his life for us. There are some great videos about His life and the Easter season on lds.org.

Back to the Grind

I have been back at work now for over a week. I have no idea how women go back to work after only 6 weeks! I loved my time home with Kasila and can't imagine having spent less time. Luckily, I was able to take of 10 weeks of school, plus have 2 weeks of Christmas break and 1 week for Spring break. All in all, I as able stay home until my little girl was 3 months old. Some of my time off was non paid because I'm still new enough to not have accrued a lot of leave. However, it was completely worth it!

A lot of people kept asking me how I was doing with going back to work. I think that I was able to come back to work, pretty happily, because I took so much time off. I didn't feel like I was being ripped away from my little girl. She has started getting in a routine and a little more predictable. Also, the people we have watching her are amazing and good friends. That really helps. She goes to one person Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Someone else on Thursday and gets to spend all of Tuesday chillin' with her daddy. Then I get to snuggle her all evening. :) The hardest part of going back to work was just getting up and having to be some place. I was also really tired the first few days. I wasn't getting my afternoon nap I had become accustom to. 

After my first day back

This last couple days have been kind of hard. Both Scott and Kasila haven't been 100%. Sila has had a stuffy/runny nose. I'm getting a stuffy nose and sore throat too. Yay to being back around germy, little children! 

The cute little face {including the runny nose} I came home to today

Cute Pics

Here are just some cute pics from the last couple of weeks...

Rollin' Rollin' Rollin'

In just under a week, our little one is going to be 3 months! That is hard to believe but it's been a great 3 months. I technically went back to work on Friday. It was a PD Day for teachers and I was able to bring Kasila with me for half the day. This week is Spring Break so March 18 will be the first true day back at work.  We shall see how both Scott and I deal with it, as he is going to be the one to actually drop her off Monday after being alone with her for more than just 2 hours. We have a couple of friends that are going to watch her on different days.

Also, this last week has been a milestone for Baby Sila (as her cousin Lucian calls her). A few days ago, during tummy time, she rolled over. It wasn't on purpose and she couldn't do it again. However, today, she has rolled over quite a few times. The first couple were on accident but I think that she's getting used to the action and I was able to get one on video before she got too upset with me for always putting her back on her tummy.

In like a Lion...

March comes in like a lion, so they say. I think our little girl took that saying literally. :) She has found her voice and today she was growling like crazy! Sorry that I kind of cut off part of her face towards the end. I was using the iPad and trying to look at her at the same time so that she didn't quit being so cute like she normally does when I pull it out.
