Changes

Life since January has been such a hectic whirlwind.

Ken lost his job when the oil price crashed in January.
E got to stay home with him from time to time, which was great for her to be able to reconnect with her Daddy.

I upped my hours at work, thanks to a wonderful boss who didn't even bat an eyelash when I asked. So that we could have insurance while Ken was unemployed.
Only Fridays and E stayed home with daddy most of them.

I went back to more than full time (in front of kids, teaching from  745-415, with a 45 minute lunch break, plus planning and grading at home for 4 different classes, one of which I've never taught before) because my school needed help when a teammate had to go out on medical leave.
E got put in daycare full time, for the first time ever.  She loves her school but it was a rough transition.

Ken got a new job in March(?) which is at minimum an hour drive away.  Changing all of our schedules around so he can work modified hours and not have to fight traffic quite as badly.

And through it all E has been potty training.

And now, we are preparing ourselves, our house and E for the arrival of a new baby come October.
