Rob and I have been working our new jobs for a few weeks now. Mine is wonderful!! I'm a nanny for a 4 year old boy and a soon to be one year old girl. They are so sweet!! It is hard work though. I don't think people (men) other then moms' or people who have nannied full time really understand how much work it is. I seriously don't sit down all day. Keeping up with a very energetic boy and walking baby doesn't leave much time for sitting. I'm lucky if I get to get a meal. I LOVE it though. I love taking care of them and playing with them. I love that they are comfortable with me now and that when Emily is fussy because she is getting 8 teeth that she will come up to me and reach her arms up for me to hold her. I love that when I get there every morning Matthew gets excited and says, "Mandy is here!!!" I've found a job where I'm happy and content and look forward to going to each day.
Rob's job isn't so great on the other hand. He is a Special Response Officer which is pretty much a step higher then a security guard. He goes and patrols buildings. He isn't armed and really doesn't get to do anything. The worst part is the hours. Night shift, Midnight-8 am. And the other shift, 3p.m-11p.m. Those hours aren't so bad. It is just so hard not getting to spend time together! His days off are days that I'm working. We were so grateful to be able to eat dinner together a few nights ago that he had off. Luckily though, it is just temporary. He signed up for an EMT class!! We are so excited for him to take this and then become and EMT!! This will hopefully really help his goal of being a police officer!!
