Long time Update!

Wow how time flies! So since my last update there is just to much that has gone on so I'll give the updates:

• I quit my stay at home job I previously talked about. I had to show at least 40 hrs of available work time and then they'd pick 25-30 hrs that I'd actually work....well my hubby was going to school full time and working full time which leaves me with hardly any work time! So the company wanted me working in the morning and then at night again...lol...not. Both my children were really showing signs of needing there mommy while I was getting babysitters just to get through the training period-before I could pick my own schedule. After much thought and prayer and communicating with my husband, we decided that my main focus is the kids and that with me working and worrying about working...I can't focus 100% on our children's needs. I've always believed that if you can stay at home with your kids, you should. After all, if you working, who is raising your kids? So I am lucky...I am able to stay at home and give 110% attention to my little ones! Although we don't have the extra income I would have brought in, I consider myself truly blessed to have a wonderful husband who is supportive and for being able to raise our kids and be there for them through the day! I know there are many single moms who can't stay home and I know I am truly blessed and grateful to be a mom and be there for my kids at a moments notice.
  
• After a long pregnancy...morning sickness, swine flu-if you are pregnant swine flu hits you like a ton of bricks I kid you not! and then prelabor symptoms over and over... we finally welcomed our 3rd little girl to our family in February 2010. We named her Maybree Viola. She is just an angel. She is so mellow and calm. She has been sleeping through the night wonderfully. I am very PRO breastfeeding. All of my 3 girls have been exclusively breastfed until 1 year old when I start the weening process. I have never even given my girls 1 drop of formula...which I am also blessed to be able to nurse, provide the nutrition my babies have needed as well as not spending any money on formula! I find that it calms me to nurse. It's nice to have time with just my sweet Maybree to nurse her and be taken back by this sweet baby. Her 2 older sisters love her so much! I am so blessed to have 3 sweet little girls!
• My husband graduated with his bachelor's degree in April 2010! Congratulations Greg on all your hard work! I love you so much and I am so proud of you!
• MaKenzie is now 4 years old and MaKayla is now 2.

I'll end my updates here and just simply pick up with my new adventures of being a mother to 3 sweet little girls!

My new job.....

I wish the weekend would never end! I love weekends. So I started a new job. My husband's company cut everyone's income by 8% and the company I've been running is struggling in this economy. So we find ourselves much tighter on money than we've been in a while....so I searched online forever and was able to find an at home job. Which is why I've disappeared the last several weeks. So here my new job:

At home job answering customer service calls. They sent me a computer to use. They pay me hourly. I'm supposed to pick my own hours which is turning out to be a lot harder than I thought.... The 1st two weeks was training full time hours....I didn't get to pick those hours. So everyday I got friends and family to babysit....thanks everyone! I really missed being with my kids during those long hours! So after 2 weeks we started on the phone...which was simply put...pure crap. We have had 3 weeks on the phone....during which is still training so again, not my own schedule. But at least it's part time now which is what I wanted. Now that training is done on Monday, they want me and several others to stay in training 1 more week. I have no more babysitters available this week. What am I supposed to do? Blah.

To tell you the truth I kinda hate this job. We have to show 40 hours of availability to work in a week and they schedule us for 25 of those hours. I'm having a hard time coming up with 40 of availability!!!! I don't have that much time-if I did, wouldn't I want to work full time or something? At 1st they gave me a split schedule so I was working 2x a day...no way....I can't do that...I don't have the time for that...

Simply put...I don't know what to do...I feel like this should be a good opportunity for me and my family. I feel like it was the right thing to do. But I'm not surviving having a nervous break down everyday! Now I'm stuck and can't make any decisions....Blah! Man this is terrible.
