On my first full day as a mommy at home, we celebrated Halloween in September. We put on our orange and black and read books about pumpkins.

These are my new work shoes:

Skully Anya:

They look like they are in a band:

Let's make some noise:

My first day alone with them was surprisingly easy. We read tons of books all morning. Anya can say what sounds like "Read it." Then we watched Wallace and Gromit, then beat on some pots, took some naps and Rachi told me all day long that a dog says, "Ruff ruff ruff." Rachi also told me at 2pm that she wanted a snack, by sticking out her tongue and saying, "yum, yum." Another thing I didn't know about the girls is that they like to spend a good part of the day without shirts. Perhaps this is new, but I found myself helping girls out of shirts at least twice.

I even got in some email answering, work for my job and order packing. I also did the dishes and put toys away 4 times. This new life might suit me.
