Rolling over

My 2-1/2 week old child has just rolled herself over 4 times in a row. I think I've heard before that newborns can do that sometimes, but it's because of reflexes and stops after a few weeks, only to start again a few months later. Either that, or I just have a GENIUS little girl =).

Job Change

Well, apparently my boss told everyone at work on Friday, so I guess I can let the cat out of the bag now. I am changing jobs next year. I'm not particularly excited about the change because I'll be sad to leave the ladies I've been working with for three years, which includes some dear, dear friends. I trust the Lord that his plan is perfect and my job had started to get kind of stressful (who knows how much of that was the pregnancy as well).

The funny thing is that my job is changing due to the economy, but not in the way you would expect! I am being moved to a part-time teaching position, because the state is getting stimulus money and want us to expand some of our special ed. services, including assistive technology, which was my job. We're not quite ready for me to work full time, so I agreed to go back to teaching Orthopedically Impaired students. It won't be quite as flexible -- I'll actually have to work the same times every week, without being able to flex my time as long as I put in my total hours, like I was able to do before. But, as I said, the Lord knows our needs.

Cousin Fun

We've had a fun week with Tasha and Jude. Sad they have to leave. Poor Tasha isn't feeling great herself, but she was still such a big help. The main reason I need help now is that I just don't have much time between baby feedings and I'm exhausted from getting about two hours of sleep at a time.

Elsi

She's awake more now and it's precious.
