moving on

I don't think I'll ever recover from the events of my last post, we are still going over our new rule everyday. But while I am ever more thankful for the time I have with AJ, I'm trying not to become completely obsessed and make him hold my hand constantly. I just need to figure out how to "parent" in a way that conveys my thoughts without the fear I have.



Anyways... like the title says... moving on. This week I started back to work and I feel a little guilty saying this, but it has been great!! I worked 3 days, my normal schedule will be 4 days, with 2 days being from 12-8, so Mark will pick them up those days. I was so nervous about leaving the kids, especially since I haven't worked since TK was born I was worried she would cry all day. The LOVE the sitter.... she has her own daycare, fenced in yard full of wonderful toys and a playroom complete with a kitchen. (AJ loves kitchens!) I told AJ last week that I didn't have to go to work the next day and he said, really mom, because I like going to Michelle's house. The kids have even started eating raw broccoli, so I'm impressed. TK has been fussy when I drop her off, but by time I call when I get to work, she is fine. And AJ says she doesn't cry she jsut plays, so I'm glad this transition has gone well so far.



With the job though, we need a 2nd car again... I can't believe we are going to be getting another car before we get a house, but oh well, one day we'll figure it out. We do have a new realtor, who has been amazing. I just think we must be hard to work with. We did look at one we liked the other day, but a few too many dirt roads and no street lights... it wasn't worth it, to me anyways. I love my neighbors close and street lights and side walks. This area is so spread out it is a bit awkard to me. The next house to look it is on Tuesday, so we'll see!
