I feel like such a ditz lately. I forget to text the mother of they boy I babysit so she knows he made it here safely, I change my mind on EVERYTHING, and I just can't think straight... hopefully this is just pregnancy and not age...

Of course, you would think I would text the woman if he DIDN'T arrive...but oh well.

So speaking of babysitting. Can you say HANDS? I am sooo glad I see his coming out of the bathroom so I can remind him. He gets annoyed and you can see it. He also is basically an only child...his next sibling is 8 years older than him..so he has a hard time adjusting to sibling fights and stuff. Bergen tattles a LOT that he's telling him he's a mean big brother... and stuff like that. So I've had some heart to hearts with the little boy that he can tattle to me but not call Bergen or any of the girls mean because they aren't sharing with kids who grab... and he grabs. We've been working on ASKING for things, not taking. He expects Bergen to be his slave. HAHA! But...all in all it's been good. just an adjustment for EVERYONE! Of course, Brooklyn LOVEs him...

I worked out today. I can say that I REALLY did... I started sweating and breathing hard! YESSSS!!!!

I feel great. Well, great as can be when you're still tired. I think I get bored alot. Tabitha is in preschool in the mornings 4 days a week. this morning I tried to play with Brooklyn and we lasted about 30 minutes... I got bored...and I think she did too. She's funny. It's nice to bond with her and I hope she has an easier adjustment with the new baby then Tabitha did... I've been trying harder to bond with Tabitha...I have to remind myself that she needs me when she's crying (for attention) and that I need to stop what I'm doing and pick her up sometimes (alot). She needs it.

Tally has a little attitude on her. I ask her to do things and ask again...and again...and threaten and then I get rude responses like I never asked once and just came on yelling. SOO frustrating. But yesterday we had a moment! She was in the bathroom checking out her hair and I asked what the problem is...it was flipping the wrong way...so I got out the moose and straightener and we had our moment :) grateful for that.

Tabitha has a friend over and she LET HER IN HER ROOM!!! WOW! It's sooo nice to see her play with someone she LIKES! She's a whole new person!

We still don't have our w2...we did a preliminary one...just with our paystub... and it looks like $4K will be coming back to us. Also, it told us that the VA took out too much social security and the VA owes us money! SWEET! It could be $5 but still, we will call them on it!

The funny part is it says our state tax return is $9...but it costs just under $20 to file it. Dumb. Oh well, we'll take our losses :)

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!
