MIA

ok, so i realize i've been a bit MIA, but here's the deal. this week has been INSANE. i've had 3 events for work, all which i was working on down to the wire to get our marketing materials in order. in addition, parker is sick with yet another cold and came down with a double ear infection and 104 fever which meant no daycare this week and of course the now weekly trip to the pediatrician's office! and then yesterday, i started getting a cold as well. needless to say, i'm exhausted and can't wait for the weekend! according to my pediatrician, i should get used to parker being sick now that he's in "school". apparently, i should plan on parker being sick ONCE A MONTH for the next year YIKES! i have no idea how i'm going to manager my work and parker being sick, but i guess i'll figure it out. at first i was wondering how on earth i would use all of my PTO time, but now it's pretty clear. don't get me wrong, i'm not complaining about my job at all. i actually LOVE my job. it is so perfect for me, especially since i typically only work mon-wed, and then i get to be a stay-at-home mom the rest of the week. plus i've been able to meet some incredible people that i never would have the opportunity to meet otherwise! and last night i even had the chance to attend a small event for Pat McCrory at an awesome house! after hearing Pat speak, you need to vote for him--he's fabulous!

hopefully i'll be more regular with my postings next week when i'm not running around like a crazy woman, but in the meantime enjoy some photos i like to call "the lollipop seriers"
