Got some great news today! I found a job at my gym as a nursery worker to replace my Avon Admin position. I was getting nervous about meeting so many strangers at the office while the kids and I were there by ourselves. It made sense to look for something else. The new position is for MWF mornings for about 3.5-4.5 hours each day. Christian, Nicholas and the new baby are welcome when I am working. Also, a big bonus, my gym membership for the family is free and I get paid per hour. I’m excited about it as it will provide a little more money (for a little more work) than the Avon did, so I will be able to decrease my evening tutoring hours a little. This, in turn, means I get to spend more time with Ed in the evening once the boys are in bed, and I get back a little TV time!! WooHoo! I will start the first week of January.
My first doctor’s appointment is Jan. 8. I switched doctors to the one that delivered Christian last time. Since it seems that you never actually have the doctor that you see for your entire pregnancy, I guess we shall see who actually delivers this baby.
The boys are excited. Nicholas says he wants a little sister. Christian says he wants a little sister. We shall see what the future beholds. :)
Ed is hoping to find out this week if he will be going on his away rotations for sure. He is on a Pain Management rotation again this month, so his hours have been pretty good so far. I love that he is here in the morning when the boys are up and getting ready for school. It allows them to see him before he goes to work rather than just for a little while after he’s worked all day and is tired.
Nicholas was the star at school last week! Each child is “the Star of the Week” once during the year. They get all of these special privileges as the “star of the week” and they really look forward to it. He’s been talking about it for months. We made him a poster and I read a book to his class that week too. He really liked it and Christian loved going to big brother’s class too.
Nicholas also sat on Santa’s lap!! I’ve got pictures! I will bring them when we come down for XMAS. It was funny because Christian was the one who wanted to sit with Santa, and Nicholas was resistant, but then at the end, Christian said “No” and Nicholas did it!!
Christian has been making all kinds of Christmas ornaments at parent’s day out this winter. He loves school, but he still hates having me drop him off. He goes through these periods where it doesn’t matter if I take him to school or not, and then he goes through these waves of freaking out that I am taking him. It’s really hard for both of us. I will be glad when he is done with this and is happy when I leave him at PDO. I think he will enjoy being at Kid Fit with me every MWF at the gym. He will like that, I think.
I recently got pictures of both boys from school, so I will bring those down too.
Love you all!
