Thomas turns 1

Thomas is 1!! It's hard to believe only a year ago I had a little baby that wouldn't sleep, and now I have a toddler!! We had a great birthday party for him on Sunday. He marched around grinning at everyone and enjoyed every minute. He also enjoyed the cake, but ate it just like he was eating peas and carrots. No real excitement...which was kind of funny! He slept very well after the party. Actually, he's been sleeping well almost every night lately - 11-12 hours every night! I won't complain about that.
I've been back to work now almost a month and it's gone fine. I've worked 8 days and it's been pretty easy. Thomas had a few rough days at the babysitter's house, but now he seems to have adjusted to another house and enjoys it. This is a big relief. The first day that he did terrible, I didn't know what I was going to do. Not working isn't an option, so I just prayed and prayed and he did fine the next day! Yeah!! I think subbing will work out for the rest of this year, and then we'll see where God leads in the fall. I'm hoping for some kind of teaching job, not subbing. Well, gotta go get a cup of coffee...or a nap...

What a great Olympics! I am sad it's over, but Canada ended up doing great:) So, it's March 2 and I officially was able to work starting yesterday. However, I didn't get called yesterday to sub or today. This is a bit stressful since I do need to work, so I hope I get called soon. I know I made this decision, but sometimes I wish I had just gone back to work full time so I wouldn't be stressed about making money. But, God is faithful. He has been time and time again, so I need to not worry! Well, that's my little stress for today. I don't know what Thomas and I will do today...maybe go visit a friend who just had a baby. Chris is off ice fishing with his dad. What a great day to go! The weather has been perfect lately! I also can't believe Thomas is 1 in less than 2 weeks. What a big boy! I just sent off his 1 year pictures to get printed. I hear some loud banging in the background...should go and see what Thomas is getting into!
