up too late

lately we've been up way too late. We have netflix and finally found a show worth watching... well, 2 shows. Psych and Focal Point (?). Anyway, last night I was watching Monk and Svend needed the computer to study but decided he could just study first with his books...well, that turned into him watching two episodes of Monk with me and not studying... then as I was headed to bed at 10:15, he realized he had to dictate... oops. So I didn't want to make him stay up super late while I slept, so I stayed up and got eVERYTHIng ready for the day...including my sit-ups and pushups. haha. FInally in bed around 11:30 and he had to be up by 5:30 for a surgery...now it's 10:15, he's been in surgeries all day and still not home. Poor guy. I at least took a 45 minute nap after getting to sleep in until 6:10. Anyway, this trend has GOT TO GO... we got spoiled with his ER rotation...home every day by 6 and didn't leave til 8am.

Friday we are all going to the whitesox game with work. His director bought the tickets. We went to the same one last year--St. Patricks game. Anyway, basically you get a green hat and green beer if you want. I was thinking they choose this one because the director is Catholic...but now I'm thinking it's because they all love to drink! Anyway, I'm just happy we only have to pay the $25 parking :) and the kids LOVE getting to go to these. Great perk :)

Money... money has not been so horrible for me lately. Maybe because I haven't looked at the bank account in a few days...who knows. I think it's because we finally decided we should have another child. SHHHH!!!! But there is comfort in knowing that things will be okay. Who knows when this child will come into our home... definitely after our yearly pay raise. I am grateful for a loving FAther in Heaven who helps our will align with His will by giving us comfort once we make the right decision. There is a special spirit who is needed in our family. I'm praying my emotions do not get out of control and that I am able to emotionally and physically handle another pregnancy. I'm scared but now worried...if that makes sense.

Why single?

I remember being engaged and thinking "I can't wait til we're married and we can be together ALL the time." A married friend of mine said "yeah right. We see eachother less now." I didn't believe her :) Well, one month after graduation, babygirl came along. Hubby had a crappy job and didn't get any days off. Luckly she was born on a Sunday. We lived away from any family and dealt for a few days til help arrived. (more like cried and ate toast while never putting down a nursing baby). More school for hubby and Bugs came along. Hubby's don't get maternity leave when they're students...so again we dealt for a few days until help arrived. Moved onto Grad school. Took hubby to carpool every morning @ 6am and picked him up at 5:30pm. Dinner and kids in bed by 6:30 then studying til 10pm. Got a second car (hooray!) which allowed the kids to stay up later and sleep in...thus getting to see daddy more. 3rd year of grad school brought Sweets with it. Hubby got my text to meet me at the hospital. Left school and came over. Back at school the next day. No tears. Lots of help with friends this time :) And family arrived before I was even discharged! Baby #4 came 2 months before graduation…and shortly after we learned we did not match. ..so no job or place to go. we made it though-as you will see. Our caboose arrived at the beginning of our last year in residency. I started this blog when just 3 were at home. It's been a place for me to vent, rejoice, and basically be honest and real with out situation and that of many other students/residents/beginning doctors. Now are in our first year of our career and already we have seen several lows…but we keep chugging forward…and I'm happy to report, I'm not so single any more!
