Update

I apologize for not blogging in a long time, but I have many good excuses! We have had some crazy (but all for the best) changes over these past few months! Most importantly, we FINALLY SOLD OUR HOUSE! The transaction was stressful until the bitter end (two days before the closing, I had to drive with both children by myself to Greenwich, Connecticut (a 5+ hour drive each way) to settle an issue before we could close)...but in the end, it all worked out, and on May 26th we sold our house!

Conveniently, Ben's father's tenants had moved out of the 2 bedroom apartment he rents out just a month or so earlier. So that's where we're living, and we're loving it. We're so grateful to have such a nice place to stay until we find our new home.

I also made the decision to leave my job as the Doula Coordinator at our local hospital. It was a tough decision for me since I loved the job, but it became clear that it was too big of a job for me at this stage in my life. I will continue to volunteer as a doula at the hospital though, which I'm really looking forward to. In my 5 months there, I was able to really revolutionize their program, and help a lot of women. They were sad to see me go, but when I accepted the job, I only did so on a 3 month trial basis since we weren't sure how it would fit into our family life. My last official day will be June 30th, and after that, I will stay on as the Doula Coordinator on a per/diem basis, training my replacement, and filling in for her when she's sick, needs a vacation, or extra help is needed. I will also continue to teach childbirth eduction classes which I love :-)

With all my free time now, I promise to update my blog again regularly :-)
