Back to Reality

This past week I went back to work part time. If I need to be at work at 8 am, I need to get up at 5 am (this enables me to feed Noel for half an hour and drop the kids off at Polka Tots). If I need to be at work at 7 am, well then it means a 4 am alarm.

Both kids go to Polka Tots Day Care in Pulaski and both are adjusting fine. Noel has even slept thru the night a few nights this past week! Noel is 9 weeks old.

Noel is starting to smile while alert and awake when she hears familiar voices!

 Our pumpkins. We didn't have time to carve them this year.
 Mike and I enjoyed lunch without the kids at Chili's in Appleton.
 Our new mini van. A 2007 Chevy Uplander. I think its Burgandy color, Mike says it is purple.We drove to Portage to get it.
 For Halloween (My first day back at work), Noah was spiderman and Noel was a pink skeleton.
 Noah liked trick or treating. He loved looking at everyones pumpkins on the porches.
 This is what Noel thought of trick or treating.
 A fun Halloween Family photo.
 Noel loves her Bright Stars Gym.
 When Noah sits on the potty now, he asks for a magazine. Ha Ha, sometimes I think he talks like a teenager. It has to be the Hot Rod Magazine too. Noah has been potty trained since July (he turned 2 in May).
 We are selling our 2007 Saturn Ion. Know anyone looking for a car? If so, leave me a comment by clicking on the word "comment" on the bottom of this post or email me. We also have it on Craig's List.
 Sweet Noel is now 2 months old! Our pretty girl.
 Fashion with Noel
 Brother and Sister Love
 Noah flashing his adorable smile (even though he has a cough and cold right now). Mama has a sore throat and Noel is coughing sometimes too.
This is my favorite time of year (Halloween thru New Year's)! Yay! Lots of family get togethers and lots of family traditions coming up!

Oh, I almost forgot. My closet organizing is going very well. Yesterday, I organized 2 more closets. I only have one more closet to go and then all the closets are done (9 closets done). I even organized all the kitchen cupboards too. I gave away a ton of stuff to Good Will in Green Bay! Ahhhh! I love organization!

Hope everyone has a fabulous week!

Getting Organized

Lately I am totally obsessed with getting all of our closets organized in the house. I even bought a book on organizing called "Organize Now" written by Jennifer Ford Berry. I also bought her 12 month planner since I lost all my To Do's on my To Do App on my Ipod Touch in August.

Here are some closets I organized already:

The Main Bathroom Closet

Bins I have are Amy, Mike, Shaving, Baby Stuff, First Aid, Nails/Ears/Feet, Bar Soap, Shampoo/Bubble Bath, and Misc.

I really enjoy labeling everything lately.
I also organized the electronic closet and put each cord in it's own ziplock bag with labels.
Noel looks so good in purple. 
Noah loves his stuffed animal-tiger. He sleeps right on top of him every night so tiger is now a body pillow. Tiger gets to sleep face down.
A brother sister conversation.
Noah loves to play with Play Doh.
Noah loves tractors and combines. One day, he was able to watch the combine cut the field across the road all day.
Noah loves to sleep with his stuffed animals. At least 7 have to be in bed with him every night.
The new way to sleep-sitting up on the couch.
Getting ready to go shopping! 
Noah loves making bubble beards in the bathtub.
Noel's baptism at Assumption B.V.M Church in Pulaski.
Grandma and Grandpa Hille
Uncle Scott and Tara
Grandma and Grandpa Williamson
Noel's Godparents: Uncle Mike and Aunt Janet Williamson
Noel in her cute baptismal gown made by Grandma Hille!
I love baby hoodie sweatshirts.
Next week it is back to work after being off for 12 weeks. Crazy how fast time flies.

Hope everyone has a fabulous week!
