warm weather!

I am so happy that the weather is finally getting warm! we have all the windows open, we get to go for walks everyday, and- overall- I am just in a much better mood. ok, granted it is raining and cloudy today-- but I guess the "April Showers" come right along with the warmer weather. I'm still excited about the change!

here's Jason with his first pair of shorts on:

(he wasn't too happy about being propped up for getting his picture taken!)

I just realized yesterday that I have only 1 more month to be home with Jason! I never thought I would say this, but the time really does go by quickly!
I was going to go back to work full-time. But, as we started getting closer to the time when we needed to find daycare options for Jason, I had a sudden (and unexpected!) change of mind. About 2 weeks ago, I realized that I did not want to be away from Jason everyday and have him in daycare. Someone could have made A LOT of money off of me about a month ago, because I would have bet a significant amount of money that I would DEFINITELY want to go back to work full-time. well, that's not so much the case anymore.

so, I worked it out with my boss-- (it is SO AWESOME to work somewhere that they are so flexible and accommodating to keep me on board!):
I am going to work 2 evenings a week (Mon and Thurs) seeing clients at the outpatient office, and go to a school 1 day a week. my friend Lori is going to watch Jason on the 1 day and I am going to bring him over to Gram's house around 3pm on the other 2 days- so he'll be there until Matt gets off from work. it seems like it is really going to work! and I feel so happy and at peace about it all.

we'll be broke, but happy.
