2nd day on the new job

Well today is my 2nd day on the new job of SAHM/NANNY. Yes thats right I said Nanny, 3 nights a week I will be spending the night at my cousin's house with her 17 month old little boy and her 2 older kids. Her husband is in the Army and is leaving out on his 3rd deployment since the Iraq war started in a couple of weeks ans she works nights in the ER. So, I have become her Nanny. We only live a mile apart out in the middle of nowhere Georgia. My husband and kids will be staying with us most nights too. I thought it would be easy, well after just 2 days of chasing around a 3 yr old, and 17 mo old plus clean, wash clothes, and cook for 4 more people has me thinking that I was wrong. My Mama was right again, why is it that Mama's are always right? I am a Mama and I most definately am not always right. Does is skip generations? Well I only have one more night and then we will be able to go to our house until next Wednesday. I think I am going to enjoy it once I get used to it and figure out a routine.

My last day of work will be April 17, 2009! I am just so tired and right now I cant have a full time job and be a good mommy - I just don't have the energy. Of course I chose being a mommy, that's the most important thing right?! God will take care of the rest, I have faith in that! Please pray for me and my family as we make this transition from 2 incomes to 1. Any tips on how to cut corners and save money would be greatly appreciated.

GO GATORS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stressed!

OK, its been a while since I have even gotten to log onto here and check out how everyone is doing. I have been so busy at work and I have had to temporaily move out of my office to help out another department. I work at a bank as the Internal Auditor, and after a big incident I have had to stop doing my job to help out in another area of the bank. So if anyone could give me any ideas about how to do not 1, but 2 fulltime jobs plus still be a mother to 3 wonderful children I would greatly appreciate it. Christmas was very simple and presents were sparse this year since my husband hasnt worked in 3 months, but it was good since presents arent really what its about anyways. I will be very thankful for any prayers that anyone could throw my way right now!!

I am really liking this blogging thing! There are some awesome and inspiriational people out there! Thanksgiving was great and I did not eat to much! Yay! My baby just turned 3 this past weekend. I cant believe it, it seems like only yesterday he was born. I see all these new babies and it makes me want another one, but I can't have anymore without surgery. My wish is to one day adopt from China, and I know if it is the Lord's will it will happen. I cant believe it is already time for Christmas, I love this time of year.

Replying

I can not figure out how to reply to comments that people leave. Can anyone tell me how?

I am still so very new!! I am not a very creative person or a very good writer but I have absolutely loved viewing other blogs and learning about people. I have truly been blessed by some of these blogs that I have stumbled upon. So I am going to try and get myself together and actually try and post pictures of my kids and my life. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
