Today, Riley and I ventured to my work for our Christmas get together. Every year we all bring in a dish to pass and pretty much pig out all day. Usually we are stuffed to the gills and spend the day semi working and chatting. Last night I was supposed to go out and get my dish (home made black bean salsa) and the wine gifts for my co workers, but it was snowing so bad, I didnt want to spend the extra drive time to get to the store. So after a great night...Riley took a shower w/Kennie at 8:30, I nursed her and then she ate 2 oz from a bottle and was fast asleep in her bassinet by 9 pm...she slept until 2:15 am, we got back up, diaper changed, she ate again, and slept from 4-7:15 am!!! I felt awesome this morning when she got up, so we ate again, and I started getting ready, being I needed to run to the store before going to work. I'm hoping we can continue this schedule because the last few nights have been very nice getting a few hours of sleep!
We woke up to more snow again!! So by the time Kennie plowed us out, I left around 9:15. Of course Riley was napping while I ran all the errands. Everywhere I went was packed!!! We got to work at 11:15 and didnt leave again until 3:30, very tired and stuffed! It was very fun to spend the day with my work friends, and Carrie who I miss terribly! And of course I really enjoyed eating all the yummy food, while someone else held Riley! I havent much been into the holiday spirit because Ive been soo busy with the baby and we arent really buying many presents this year, but today really put me in the spirit!

By the time we were on the way home, both Riley and I were both very tired and ready for a nap! Grandma Patti is spending the night, so tomorrow morning I may sneak out for a solo grocery trip and a few last minute odds and ends! I'm hoping that its not too crazy out..but I'm sure I may loose my mind in the mall traffic! Happy Hoidays!
