| Whew Time Flies |
Well I know it has been ages since I have been on here blogging. I have been working my way back into the forums slowly, and it is definitely nice to be back.
While I have been away there have been a lot of good things happening. First of all my husband is able to stay here in the US which means we don't have to go through those horrible goodbyes and that horrible depression that follows for days after his parting. To go along with that good news the American government has finally given him the ok to work, which is always a good thing.
Secondly, back on September 12th I had Jim and I's first child. He was 7 pounds and 12 ounces and his name is Taegan William (Tay-gan meaning little poet). At the end of the pregnancy I was feeling tired, achey, just down right miserable. I had to be off work from the beginning of August because of blood pressure and stuff, so it was hard for me to just kind of sit around and chill, but I made it through.
After getting home, I started feeling pretty good, which was amazing to me considering I had to have a c-section, but a small part of me missed feeling and having that baby bump. I missed the kicks, and the feeling of Taegan getting the hiccups and jerking my stomach. To this day I still catch myself rubbing my hands across my stomach, forgetting that he is here now lol.
The biggest thing I noticed after the pregnancy that really excited me was the fact that I did not have to get up to pee like every 2 minutes. That started to get quite annoying, so it seemed like a miracle having my bladder back to normal. Guys you just really have no idea what us females go through when we're pregnant.
Anyways, I can't believe it but on this Friday he is going to be 6 weeks old. I can't believe how fast time truly goes by. He is starting to look like his daddy, expecially in his eyes and around his nose, and some of this facial reactions are just so cute. Jim and I really are lucky to have such an incredible little guy; now if only he would sleep through the night lol.
Finally, this week I have started a new job. I am going to be a TSS (therapeutic support staff) and sit with children one on one in classrooms to keep them on task and out of trouble. I am very excited to do this, so wish me luck.
I know Jim is kind of bummed that he isn't able to be here as much as he used to be, and I feel partly to blame for that. I know it's probably hard having a wife, a new baby, and a new job the last two being within a month of one another. I'm tired, he's tired, and I'm still a tad bit emotional so I want that cuddling time. I know he misses it and hopefully he'll be able to get on more often now that I am back to work and Taegan is getting a bit older.
I guess you really just never know what life is going to offer you. It has definitely kept me hopping and on my toes these last few months, but it has made me appreciate Jim and life more than I ever thought was possible. I love you hun :)
