A Day in The Life

I have been married for 11 years to my husband Jeff and we have 4 children ages 10, 8, 4 & 2. I have decided to blog about the day to day life that I live. In January of this year Jeff and I both started back to school pursuing a nursing degree. In line with that decision we sold our 3000+ sq. ft. home and moved into a 1200 sq. ft. garage apartment at my mom's. So, in August we will be beginning our third semester of school and we are both currently on the Dean's List. When I'm not doing school work I am working for the Children's Hospital from home which I have done since shortly after Logan (our oldest) was born. Along with school work and real work I juggle the 4 kids and everything that comes along with their needs and wants. To catch up to speed on life recently; we just returned home on July 12 from a 2 week vacation to Hunting Island which is our annual beach trip. Upon returning Logan had an adenotonsillectomy (tonsils and adenoids removed). 10 days later (this past Monday) she had a palate expander "installed" as we begin her long orthodontic road. Logan is definitely the child that keeps me busy with all that she requires and wants out of life. The main purpose of this blog will be to share with other moms out there what a day in my life is like as I juggle and balance being a mom, student, employee and wife. I truly believe that with determination and support anything is possible. I am looking forward to 2012 when school will hopefully be complete and I can remove one of the many hats that I am currently wearing!
