First Day on the Job :)

June 9, 2009

Today was my first day on the job, staying at home with my favorite girl. It was so wonderful to be with her all day long. Today I…

  • woke up to a talking and smiling baby
  • played with Dora toys
  • watched Noggin
  • spent time with friends and played with Anna Claire and Charlie
  • changed 4 poopy diapers (1 was Charlie’s)
  • took 2 walks around the neighborhood
  • fed Sarah Ann applesauce, carrots, sweet potatoes and bananas
  • ran errands around Lexington
  • did 3 loads of laundry
  • cooked dinner (who would have thought?)
  • cleaned the kitchen
  • got spit up all over me several times
  • gave Sarah Ann a bath
  • watched Sarah Ann play the guitar with Jeffrey
  • put the sweetest girl ever to bed in her crib

The best part about doing all these things today is that I get to do them all over again tomorrow and the next and the next! I don’t think it has really hit me yet that I am not going back to school to teach next year. Right now it is just summer break; however, I am so excited about being able to stay at home and experience each new day with my sweet girl! I don’t want to miss all that she is going to do and accomplish in these next few months!

Thank you, Jeffrey, for letting me stay at home. I know it is going to mean sacrifice and change, but I am so grateful that you work so hard to take care of us and that you are so willing for us to work it out, so that I can be home with Sarah Ann. You are the most amazing husband and Daddy! We love you very much!
