Today S started his new job. It is an opportunity that we desperately needed and came out of the blue. He was really nervous through the application process- was it a good opportunity, what was the salary, could he do the job? But it all worked out, and it seems this new chapter in our lives is going to be SUPER new. It is a little bit intimidating to look at all the changes coming up and figure how we can manage them all, but I guess only time will tell how good/bad it all will be.
I had to sit down and have a lengthy talk with S about parenting this weekend. As we are breastfeeding, the majority of the constant responsibilities have fallen to me. As we go on, and especially as we both head back to work, this is going to have to change. I had to confront S about some attitudes he had towards being a parent, and he was honest about his process. I have to say that being married to S is wonderful. No matter how agitated/worried I may be, we are always able to talk it out and find resolution. It really is comforting to be partnered to such a great man.
Well, there is lots going on. The vegetable garden is in due to this amazing weather this spring, and it is full of plants to make baby food! It is weird to think of Anya eating people food, but I am sure it will happen soon enough! St started his first "grown up" job after college, and is loving it. D has decided on nursing, and is going to watch Anya for 1 week when I go back to school. Mom just had gall bladder surgery and seems to be recovering well. There is so much more to write about, but typing one handed while holding a sleeping child is hard. More to follow later!
