a kick in the pants!

Ok, I am ashamed! Christy has now started a blog and I believe that in my last blog I said that I would be trying to post once a week from then on... that was in October! Oops! I do have a small excuse, shortly thereafter I started a part-time job! Let me tell you all about it...

I never planned to go back to work, my heart's desire is to be a stay-at-home Mom. But Corinne takes great naps during the day and Jason works from home, so I was starting to feel a little... dare I say, bored?! One day, Jason came home and said, and I quote, "I found purpose for your life!" After I punched him in the gut, he showed me an ad for a Part-Time Youth Coordinator position at a family center in our town. I immediately jumped on it and started a few weeks later! After spending several days trying to remember what one does at a "job," I am really starting to get the hang of this thing. The most exciting part of my job is that I am going to be starting a mentoring program in our county. It is a huge task to take on, but will be so beneficial to the youth of Kent County.

Corinne is enjoying spending more time with her Daddy. When I took this job, Jason quit his one day a week job at the coffee shop and now he hangs out with Corinne every afternoon for 4 hours. Things are working out great! Developmentally, she is going crazy! She has doubled her birth weight, she is eating solid foods, sitting up on her own, and chewing on her feet. Best of all, she puts her little hands on my face looks into my eyes, smiles, and says...... "DADA!!!" Grrrr. Besides that minor setback, she is growing beautifully.

I will leave you with a strange family photo....
