Moving on to new things

As some of you already know, we have decided that it was time for me to go back to work. This came with mixed emotions from both of us, but in the end, we agreed it was the best thing to do.  So two weeks after making this decision and applying for a couple of jobs on campus, I have already started this new adventure! It was the fastest hiring process I have ever experienced. I am the Program Coordinator for the Psychology Department. What does this mean, you ask.  Well, it is a lot of things including answering questions for current and prospective students, assisting students with advising, helping faculty with various projects, working with the chair of the department on projects and events, and supervising all of the student workers for the department. I am very excited and think that it will be a good fit for me! It is 32 hours a week and they are very flexible and family friendly, which is a huge plus. Also, the office is right across the street from our apartment! A friend of ours is watching Izzy until we find some students or get into the daycare we like. So far, so good!

Also, today Izzy had her 18 month check up and here are the latest stats:

Height: 33 3/4 (95%)

Weight: 26 lbs (80%)

We enjoyed the new doctor’s office and suffered through a few shots!  Her latest and greatest achievements include counting to two, repeating everything we say, giving hugs and kisses to baby Nolan (the other RLC’s new baby), running and trying not to fall – so far only one boo boo, and enjoying that the students are coming back and they all love her!
