When It Rains It Pours...


Blessings!! And you thought I was going to have a negative post, right?! It has been such a crazy, crazy week! First with me finding out that I'm pregnant and then Jared's surgery on Monday, which went well and he's recovering quite well, and now, drum roll please...This is what we've all been waiting for (for two LONG years!)...Jared FINALLY has a full time, steady job! He starts at Nestle on March 12th! Happy Birthday to Andy! He will work night shift, which will be an adjustment to us all, especially him. We've known for a couple of weeks now that he had the job, but we wanted to wait until he had the physical and passed it all to make the announcement. We are so, so excited and ready for this. It will work out perfect for his school schedule too because he'll work 2 days on, have 3 days off, then 3 days on, and 2 days off at 12 hours each shift. After a year he can bid on new positions and what's even better is that they reward employees who are attending and graduate from college while employed with them! Yipee!! We can't wait, plus think of all that chocolate milk we'll be able to get at discount! Yoohoo! (pun intended, even though I'm not sure that Nestle makes it, just thought it'd be funny)

**Update on Andy. He got the blood test results back today for the Crohns and such and it all came back normal! Yes! This means no major problems for him! Now he just has to have his ultrasound on his stomach and if that comes back normal, then it will probably just be acid reflux or his meds causing the stomach discomfort. We are starting a new med today, Ritalin. It worked for Jared, so we're hoping since they share DNA that it will work for Andy. I'm really hoping the third time's the charm on this! I'll be posting some fun pics from our "Let's Go Lego" adventure at the library from last night, but for now we have to get ready to have Mason, Isaiah, and Elijah over for the evening!
