I stand corrected...

Kaden is now working on tooth #8. And having four move in at the same time must be working a number on his system. He's vomited twice today. Otherwise, he seems just fine, and I'm feeding him the same stuff he always eats. Hopefully his belly settles down tomorrow. I'm totally out of sick and regular leave.

Well, I wish that was truly the case. I'm not just OUT of sick leave, I'm still over 150 hours in the hole. I took advance sick leave as my maternity leave. I should get done earning it back sometime next summer. Yikes.

Ah, the little one calls. Must be off...

Major news to come in a week or so

We may have some final news on Darrell's next assignment by next Friday. It's been a rollercoaster of emotions so far. And if it ends up like it appears, there's a bit of good along with the not-so-good. *sigh*

In other news...

Kaden is working on tooth #6. He's also learned how to pull up on anything and everything; he's able to cruise a step or two, so walking won't be too far away.

I start my 'new' job on 2 April. It's not a promotion, but at least it's something new.

What else...

My best friend had her baby on the 20th! Twelve hours later, her husband's flight landed at Kansas City. Bummer. All the way from Iraq and just missed it. The boys and I are leaving in two weeks to visit. I'm excited!!

Kaden!

Kaden plays with the toy bar from his bouncy chair.

ETA: Ok, Google's schmancy video insert deal isn't working (as usual). Here's the link.

I like this one.

New job. Same pay.

One of my co-workers got a promotion. I asked the boss if I could move to her position. It's a lateral move, but will give me more experience.

Plus, I'm NEEDING a change. I've been here for a year (almost) and doing the same thing every day gets very tedious. I'm looking forward to a different kind of tedious, at least until I manage to get MYSELF a promotion...

Happy Pi Day.

I love this picture. Isn't he cute?? :)

Notice his new TEETH?!?! The top two are just barely sticking out. Just enough to bite me on the arm. Lovely.
