One Month In

I am officially one month into life as a mom of three children. It is all that I thought it would be and so much more. I love the view from my rear-view mirror when I have all my little babies filling my mini-van (aka the cool mom car). I love how much my big kids love their sister. I love how snuggly our E still is...and that newborn cry which I know is going to disappear so soon is now recorded for me to remember forever!

E had her one month check-up this Monday. She's a little piglet who weighs 9 lbs. and 14.4 oz! Oh my! She's grown 3/4 inches. Wow! Her hair is still there...beautiful and dark. Her eyes are sparkly and blue, dark blue like L's with a hint of the sky blue that C has. I am focused on enjoying every second of this because it goes by so fast!

In other news, "yesternight" is our new favorite word...C talks about things happening yesternight. I love it! She's a trip, and I honestly don't know how in the world we deserved such a blessing. That chic is funny and sassy and beautiful and is the life in our home.

L began another t-ball season. This is not the same caliber team as the team Z coached in the spring. Oh, well. He's having fun, so that's what matters. He also got a "gold slip" (which is a recognition of a positive action or character trait) at school today and he is so excited. He's really gotten so much better at school. He's improving so much so quickly. Math continues to be his strong suit, and he's only going to the support classes 3 days a week. Yay!

I have a job interview for a director of a preschool/childcare facility on Monday at 9am. It's in my town, and I believe E would just come with me. L and C would join us after school in my ideal scenario. We'll see. I know it would help out so much on our finances, especially if Z needs to stop working with the family company. When our lakehouse sells (note that I said when...I am keeping a positive attitude), my salary would be gravy...savings, college funds, portraits of my beautiful babies, trips to DISNEY WORLD!, etc. Although in a perfect world, I'd be home everyday with my kids and we would have money coming out our ears and tons to do for others with, a great alternative would be a happy husband in his job, and my kids with me at my job! Praise God in advance for getting me the interview. If it's His will, it will all fall into place.
