New Job!

Cade and I have almost finished the first week my new job- staying home with him:) After much thought, prayers and discussions, we decided that this would be a great opportunity and blessing for our family (Thanks, Heath!). I know it is still early, but so far, we have had SO much fun! We have read books, sang, danced, played and run a few errands. Not to mention that I have had time to get dinner cooked...whew!

It is definitely different than going to a "real" job (although this one is a LOT more physical!), but I am so thankful to be able to do this right now. Cade is definitely the cutest boss I have ever had (even if he is the most demanding:).

Glad things are going well. I thought about you Wednesday when I had both of mine at home with me and wondered if I could really do this all of the time. Sounds like you guys have had a great time!

Wow. What a big step. I wish you the best of luck. I know I can't do it full time-- summers are hard enough on me with both boys pulling in all directions. I will pray for you! It is easier for me to have 90 that don't come home with me all day!

Welcome to the lay around watch T.V. and eat bonbon's club...No I wish you luck. The "Boss" can be demanding at times. The pay is great though. I'll take hugs and kisses over money any day Congrats...You'll have a blast...

That is great to hear, it is the most rewarding job you will ever have! That way you are with him for all those first moments!!! Congrats!

I really admire you becoming a stay at home mom! It's a big job! I work from home right now and there is ALWAYS something to clean or cook or an errand to run. It really can be a full-time job, even without children! I plan to stay at home as well when we have future Baby Knies!
