a little of this a little of that

I feel as though this month has flown by. I started my new job and did not like the 5:00 a.m. wake up call. It officially marked the end of my vacation :) You can follow this link to see where I am working http://www.newenglandrehab.com/. Right now I am orientated in the main hospital in Woburn, MA and once I have things down there I will move to the Danvers satelite clinic, which is much closer to home. I was hired as per diem at Danvers, but because it is a much smaller unit I will most likely have to work in Woburn to get all the hours I will need.

Here is a link to googlemaps to give you an idea of what I am talking about. A is our home, B is Danvers, C is Woburn.

I hope the links and pictures help get a visual! I know I need the visual!

While I am at work Brian is at home with the kids, they are having fun together, doing projects and playing. In the evenings Brian tries to make up lost time on his studies. We are stressed but this is temporary! I will be in orientation probably until the end of the month and then I will move to evenings and be at the clinic closer to home, most of the time.

On a more exciting note, Grace lost her first tooth!!! She was going to let that tooth walk it's self right out of her mouth...that's where I come in....:)

She came up to me the night before my birthday and said mom can we celebrate your birthday tomorrow night because I haven't been to the store yet. It was real cute. I hugged her and told her one of the best gifts would be for her tooth to come out...she let me wiggle it and I pulled it right out...they was blood she was crying, Brian and I were cheering her on...we gave her some water to wash down the blood before we would let her go to see it in the mirror, my girls and blood do not go well together :) Well then she was so excited! she just couldn't even sleep, we decided to write the tooth fairy a letter because she wanted to show her friends here and friends and family on skype her tooth. It was super cute.

if you ask her now she will say it didn't hurt...phew, I was hoping it wouldn't be a traumatic experience.
