I got a new attorney in my office, which means I'm now working for 2 attorneys. But that's not the hard part. The hard part is that I'm going from working for 1 Criminal Defense attorney, to working for 1 Criminal Defense attorney and 1 Family Law attorney. I do not like family law! I do not like dealing with other people's drama and family issues, let alone help them sort it out and be their shoulder to cry on. It makes for long days because I can't do it all within my 8:30a-5p workday. I don't think I've gone home before 5:30p for over a month. It's crazy. I was trying to take a Friday (only a half day) off for over 4 weeks. I FINALLY took it think weekend, which made for a 4 day weekend for me. Whoop Whoop!
And TJ's job has so much on their plate that he's been coming home after 8p, and normally around 10p lately too. Makes it hard for us to do stuff as a family. I guess it's job security for us, but we're both mentally and physically exhausted when we come home at night. And poor Kali only gets about 3 hours with me and sometimes only a few minutes with TJ before it's her bed time. Makes me really wish I could be a stay at home mom. ::sigh::
But aside from all that, Kali has been growing and learning in leaps and bounds! She's starting to walk, just holding one of our hands. She's got great balance and can stand alone for about 30 seconds before she sits and starts to play with something. I'm hoping that she's walking by her birthday, but then I know I'll be more exhausted chasing after her! LOL.
Alright, here are the obligatory cute pictures of Kali from this month. And I'm going to try and be better about posting.....promise.
Kali loves her books. And whenever she dissapears into her room and gets quiet,
I know she's reading her books. I love it!
Mommy and Kali!
Kali got the remote and was changing channels.
She did make it to cartoons, which I was impressed with! LOL
Splish-splashing in the bath
We found her a chair her size at Shipwreck.
She loved it, and it makes me want to get her own chair for the house.
Daddy was a buffet while at Shipwreck.
It was so funny having her "find" the snacks he laid out.
Kali finally has some hair.
And this is what we do with it! HAHA
Kali's first trip/ride in a firetruck!
Kali and Travis & Trevor on the Firetruck.
We'll have to take her for a ride in Uncle Jonathan's firetruck next time we visit!
Kali will now "cheese" when you take her picture!
ADORABLE!
I love those beautiful blue eyes!
Kali did some finger painting on a rainy Sunday afternoon.
We decided to give it to Mema for her birthday! She loved it! :)
Aunt Debbie and Kali at Boatyard for lunch!
I LOVE that I'm finally able to put some bows in her hair!
I'm going a little overboard with it. And I know this.
The first step is admitting the problem, right?!
Then I'm good! LOL
It has been a wonderful month with our little angel. Can't wait for family pictures next week, and then she'll be 11 months old. I'm also starting to get ready for her 1st birthday. OMG! I just said FIRST BIRTHDAY! Where has this year gone? I guess the next 17 years are going to be like this one. Wow... Can't wait for the wild ride in store for us!
