Hi Ho, Hi Ho

...It's off to work I go!

We're starting this transition from full time stay-at-home-mom to working girl very slowly...like 8 hours a week slowly.  How awesome is it that I found a job that will hire me for 8 hours a week? (Hint, my father-in-law and husband just might have something to do with it...)

Hadley has started at "The Kids Place" - a fabulous little hippy preschool down the street from us.  She's gone 2 days now and she is enjoying the pants off going to "school".  She cried on day two when we picked her up! Teacher Patti is amazing. She's got to be, since she's worked in the one year old room since 1984, now that is patience. I seriously asked when I went for our initial interview what kind of staff turnover they've experienced, and the answer was that Hadley's teacher had been with the school since shortly after I was born. Incredible!

Coen will be with my sister-in-law's sister Melanie who stays home with her 8 month old Gunnar and our shared niece Roslyn, 6 months.  As Mel said, she's got the two baby thing down, what's one more?!

Anyhow, I'm excited for all 3 of us, I think it will be awesome to get out of the house, dress up like an adult and get back into the working world a little bit.  Slowly but surely!

Wish us all luck - Tuesday is our first day!
