Just stuff...

Well, it has been a busy week. First off, both of the kids have been sick. Ben stayed home from school on Monday. He went the rest of the week, but he still has a cough. Delaney has been another story. She has had a cough for a while now. She went to school until Thursday. She stayed home because she was feeling especially bad. That night she wanted to sleep with me. I let her. Big mistake. At about 10:30, she threw up in my bed, on the floor between the bed and the bathroom, and on the bathroom floor. She was sick for a while, then I had the fun task of stripping the bed and putting clean sheets on the bed. Also got to clean the carpet and the bathroom floor. What a fun time. The whole rest of the night every time she made any kind of noise I would wake-up thinking she was going to get sick again. Thank goodness she didn't. Well, I wound up taking her to see the doctor because she started saying her ear hurt. She is never one to complain, so I knew something was up. Sure enough, she has an ear infection. Now she will be on meds for 10 days. Good thing is she already feels much better.

Second bit of news...after 2 interviews, I now have a job! I'm sure most of you know by now, but I thought I would put it on here anyway. I will be working full time as a Patient Representative at one of the clinics at our hospital. I had to go in and fill out a ton of paperwork, and as soon as my background check clears, I get to start. The kids and Ben both are happy and supportive with my decision. It is going to be a big adjustment for me after being a stay-at-home mom for 10 years! But I am excited and I know this job will mean better things for my family. So wish me luck!

I know I haven't posted any pictures of the kids in a while. I promise they are coming soon! But I will leave you with a photo that is dear to my heart and makes me smile. It is a daily occurrence that my girls are outside my kitchen door pecking on the glass and begging for something. So here they are!
