I'm not going to play catch up. ok. maybe I will. in point form. take that!
- Marshall and I took a 3 day (one direction) road trip to Iowa.
- Marshall traveled like a DREAM
- Marshall had his first smile, roll over, and laugh
- Marshall laughs like Sheldon from the Big Bang Theory http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGggsvdWoJs
- He is so interactive and enjoyable. I'm truly loving this stage
- I haven't been in the hospital since June
- I'm waiting on a procedure called an uterine artery embolization, which will effectively block the blood flow to my uterus and (hopefully) kill off the fibroids. It should be happening in the next few months
- As soon as this happens I'm going to restart the C25K
- I decided that for my own sanity, and our financial needs, to start looking for work.
- my mindset was it takes at least three months to find a good job, so I would likely have one in October/November
- I did this partly because I was scared of ending up doing group home shift work again. while meaningful work, this would NOT be fun with a baby.
- I already got a job
- it kicks ass
- It's at the Ronald McDonald House as a Family support/recreation coordinator.
- I start a week from TUESDAY
- that means this is my last week as a SAHM
- I'm going to miss my little gaffer but am pretty excited for some independence.
- I'm starting at four days a week
- this is SO perfect
- My mom and my friend Kristy are going to watch Marshall in Sept/Oct
- In Nov I have to find a replacement for Kristy because she is going to have a gaffer of her own!
- Dan and I are going to start the budget from til Debt do us part
- I'm strangely excited for it
- especially that he is on board
- I've been meal planning for a few weeks now. It's working pretty well, but I want to incorporate more recipes
- A lot of my recipes are clean eating ones, which I like
