Is it over already?

THIS POST MAY CONTAIN AFFILIATE LINKS. I MAY EARN FROM QUALIFYING PURCHASES.

I never would have imagined when I wrote this about the summer starting 9 weeks ago, that it would be over so soon.

Even after the first two days went so swimmingly, we kept at it. We battled the nap skipping, the library book destroying , the weaning, the back talking and the SAHM blues.

We enjoyed play dates with friends, story time at the library, and more Chick-fil-A then we should have ever eaten.

All, in all, the summer went well. I’m sad to see it ending, but I’m sure I will enjoy some adult time at work. Wait…I work with 16 year olds. Oh, well. I will be different and I will try to make it good.

And, at the end of the day, I will still get to do this with my girls (or hopefully something close as I don’t know how much longer the three of us can sit on this chair)!

Where they love each other so much, that they do this…

And, I had to throw this one in. I went into #2’s room last week and she’s learned how to get to a sitting position.

So, it’s back to the grind on Monday (really, Monday already?).

I’m going to try and enjoy this last weekend of summer

  20. I was going to make some smart-mouth, sarcastic comment like, "If your summer went fast, try being a teacher" when I realized that you ARE a teacher. And a mom. And a super-blogger. And a blog designer.

    You must be READY to back to school!!!

  23. Oh…the holding hands picture warmed my heart! So sweet.

  24. Are you celebrating Women's Equality day? Just curious because I could not find a single "FREE" graphic or poster to use with my posts. I was crossing my fingers that you might have something. Hugs, Jen

  25. It does seem like this summer flew by. I'm glad you had such a good time with the girls though. I'm jealous of all the teachers who get the summers off with their kids – I went into the wrong profession it seems!

    Hope you enjoyed your last weekend!

  26. I randomly found your blog on the other Krystyn's! My brother-in-law is a chem teacher in Georgia, as well! And I'm a teacher but I have until the 20th off. Good luck with your first week back!

  27. I couldn't believe it the first time I came into the dude's room and he was sitting up in his crib. Such precious photos! And seriously…where the heck did the summer go?

  28. The hand holding picture made me a gushy mess. I can't hold my emotions. Darn.

  29. Good luck going back to work. The picture of them holding hands is cute!

  30. I love the picture of the girls holding hands, you might need to break that one out when they are teenagers 🙂

  31. too too fast – I'm so sad summer is almost over!!
