Moving in....slowly

We love love LOVE our new place. It feels just HUGE, it's not... but compared to the apartment, and our room in my Mom's basement it sure could be. We've still got boxes everywhere, especially in our bedroom. Brody doesn't let us get a lot of unpacking done. It's amazing how exhausted we are just going about our normal, daily routine... But when we are feeling up to it, we throw some unpacking in there. I did finally get to put Brody's nursery together. FINALLY. I had been waiting to do this since I found out I was pregnant. It was so fun. It's my favorite room in our house...and it's not finished quite yet. I will put pictures up of everything when it's a little more put together. We sure love it here though, boxes n all. It's comfortable and I feel safe.

Which brings me to my next thought. Jake's night shift. BLAH

Jake got a new job. Still within Darigold's company, but instead of working in Boise at the Milk plant, he is now in Caldwell working as a butter man! The wonderful thing about it is that he is no longer a temp. He's a full time, hired on employee. Woo hoo! His shift though, is taking some getting used to for me... and for him I'm sure. 12 hour shifts. 5am to 5pm. He works 3 1/2 days and then gets the better part of the weekend off. It really isn't too bad of a schedule. He doesn't seem to hate it.

BUT for the next 20 days he's working 12 hour shifts with NO DAYS OFF. ughhhh
So Brody and I get to see his Dad at 6 am when he gets home (we are usually having breakfast about then) for a couple of hours and then he goes to bed before he does it all over again. It's rough. The overtime sure won't be bad, but not seeing my husband is a big fat bummer :( We miss him already.
