When one door closes another opens

Wow ... for the last three years I have been a mommy, wife, and STUDENT!!!!

My student life is coming to an end tomorrow as I write my last exam. I am very excited to be finished as I dont know how much longer I could sourround myself with some of my class mates and to be able to take some time to myself and relax. At the same time I am kind of sad that this venture is over.... I have finally finished a post secondary education - although I plan on continuing in the future it wouldn't be full time. Soooo... a chapter in my life book is closed.

My life as mommy starts again, not that it ever ended but its back on as a FULL Time position. Mykayla who is turning 3 on May 6th will be home again with me full time and July 3rd we are expecting our little boy to join our family. Its very different being home this time already as Mykayla is so advanced and has a crazy imagination ... she can play for hours by herself in her play room which really does give me time to clean the house. Not only that but I have started introducing Mykaylas chore list..lol

• She MUST feed her dog at dinner time
• Put away the towels
• Clean her room - basically arrange her toys and put clothes in hamper
• And pre-vaccum before I can vaccum

I plan at staying home with the kids for a year then Mykayla will be starting school and I will consider going back to work part time.

Staying at home is a very big change as I get bored very easily and dont want to feel like I am stuck. So this summer Mykayla plays soccer on Saturdays, Brad has Baseball friday nights - something we really enjoy going to watch. Wednesday nights I have cake decorating classes and the 2nd thursday of each month scrapbooking. I plan to introduce dance classes for myself back into the mix but have to wait and see how my body will react to breastfeeding to see if I have to wait. ooooooooooooo yes and Brad goes golfing on Thursdays with the boys.

I also plan on a once a week trip to do something fun, my list so far is this ...
