baby einstein

We received a baby Einstein video from a friend of thors. a "lullaby time, soothing sounds for baby" video to be exact. For everyone who does not know what "baby Einstein" is, its a series of dvds to help stimulate ur baby with sounds, shapes and animals and such.
we'll... being the new parent that i am i thought i should pre-watch the movie before showing it to Oaklie. You know, making sure the animals arent' naked and saying inappropriate phrases, like when the dog says "wolf" instead of "bark". I found that phrase to be offly offensive. So as i'm watching the video i feel asleep! i guess the lullaby einstein video really does work and helps put your child, and you to sleep! I totally recomend it!!! haha thanks alex for the great gift!! :)

Work, Showers and Still no Sleep!

Our baby is the most spoiled baby ever!! our great neighbors threw us a shower the other day (that makes number 7!) and we got a stroller!!! we have almost everything we need for this girl now! we actually had to buy our first set of wipes and diapers the other day!! Thank you to everyone for all of the love and support its truly been a blessing!!
I've now officially started back at work! I work at a dental office as an office manager/coordinator 3 days a week which i la la loove that schedule! my boss just gave me a really NICE raise for coming back to work (he was afraid i was gonna stay home with baby so i got rewarded! hehe). I now work Monday, tuesday and Thursday. Thor works Tuesday through Saturday so he stays home with miss oakley while i'm at work. On tuesdays and Thursdays Oaks goes to our friend Rachels house. Rachel is my sisters boyfriends sister. She is so fabulous! her baby is one years old and so she has everything Oakley needs at her house. i just take over bottels and milk! She is such a good friend and a good sitter!!
Oakley has started something new... she has decided to get up and scream every other hour! the last two nights the only way we could get her to sleep was by having her sleep in our bed with us! oh geezse looks like were gonna have to upgrade form a queen to a king!!
Thor and i start school next week!! Thor is gonna go back FULL time and he is gonna become a med tech! after that he is gonna continue on and get his dr's in pathology. i'm gonna take a couple of online classes and get my generals out of the way since i'm more then half way there. So life is gonna get even more crazy with working, school and a new baby! i'm very excited to continue this lack of sleep program i'm on hahaa!
Just to brag on thor.... he got a semi promotion at work! he now is the official individual who does all the training for his lab! and next month he gets promoted to lab tech 2! it pretty much means he is doing great at his job and moving up in the company!
