In February I started working full time plus- 6 days a week. Doug was supper close to being the first volunteer to hit 1,000 hours with the Conservation Dept. We knew it would look good on his resume' in the future, so I agreed to work more hours till he hit the 1,000 hour mark. He officially did on Sat. I/we are so proud of him! He's now slimming down on the amount of hours he's putting in, but trying to find a 2nd job. Once he finds something, I'll hopefully be able to cut my hours at work back down. It's never easy to spend so much time away from the kids. Just praying it's temporary! I've been trying to rack my brain with a job I can do from home starting here in a couple years. I've thought about medical billing and coding, but I hate to rack up debt going back to school. I don't know if I have enough creative juices to create my own business.
Over the weekend Cade started getting sick again. He has strep for the 3rd time in under two months. Hopefully after this round he'll be good for awhile! The Nurse Practitioner said they now take tonsils out if you have strep 6 times in 1 year. Hopefully he won't hit that!
Madi is going to start a new preschool soon. It will just be for a couple mornings a week, but more structured. I know it will be good for her!
This past week Madi and I found a good nickname for her.. she's my little lady bug. Of coarse, for her sake, I have to add princess in there every once in awhile! Cade has always been my little monkey- for obvious reasons! I called him that yesterday and he informed me that he was a spiderman monkey. So we agreed that he's my spider monkey. Kids are so entertaining. I can't imagine my life without them. I know it gets crazy some times, or more like I go crazy some times :-) We all keep each other very entertained!
