Most of the time I hate it. It causes stress, takes time to adjust, and makes you miss those good old days. It's denfinately been happening at our house.
Austin:
A recent promotion had us all thrilled when we learned of the awesome pay raise, benefits, and a pretty decent looking schedule when he would be working 3 out of the 4 weeks of the month and have a whole week off. That was until we experienced his turn on the night shift. Seriously thought I was more independant than I really am. Even though it's just a few nights in a row I have to sleep by myself, it's harder than I thought it would be. You see, Aus and I are still in a relationship where the only thing that gets us through a work day is that we get to be together in the evenings, cheesy I know, but it's true. Needless to say when Austin isn't with me at night I can't sleep, I hear EVERYTHING, and I end up calling him at 3am just so we can talk for a bit. This change is definately going to take some getting used to.
Kara:
This is how I feet right now...
When we first got pregnant I thought it was going to be a lot like my first pregnancy with Elena. Not a chance. First of all my immune system is pretty weak right now. I seem to be catching whatever is going around! I feel exhausted all the time and can't wait until I don't have to get up for work anymore. And I seemed to have ballooned out just in the last week. Nothing fits!!! It's not a good day when even your fat pants don't fit. In the end though this type of change will be worth it!!!(fingers crossed)
Elena:
She has recently been having a hard time at school lately with bullying. Meaning, she's the bully!!! It doesn't make it any easier that I was her teacher and she thought she could get away with it. We changed that. She has a new teacher now thats trying to crack down on her and get it under control. Elena definately doesn't look like the type to just randomly walk up to the biggest kid in the class and deck him for no reason! But that's her. She really is a good girl at home but the class brat at school. Isn't is supposed to be the other way around? Any suggestions to tame her rough behavior? Hopefully this baby will be rough and tough with her so she has someone to wrestle and can take it!
