Well, work at home mommy anyway. I gave 30 days notice at my job last week and it felt so good! My last day is January 8th. Just four more weeks and I'll be home with my baby full time. I am so happy I can hardly stand it!
Everything is falling into place for my home day care. I am CPR and First Aid certified, I have my food handlers permit, I'm calling Tooele City about my business license tomorrow, I have all of things to safety proof my house. I should be ready to open up for business mid January.
I am so happy. I feel so blessed that I have this opportunity. Merry Christmas to me and my wonderful family! It's the best gift ever! =)

An Update of Sorts...
Well, it's been a month since I've posted so I thought I would update. I just never have time anymore.
Chili is fine. Our neighbors were assholes and said that Chili bit their dog when he didn't. He passed all of his aggression tests and was very well behaved while in quarentine. So we got him back after two days instead of ten. I'm so thankful I got my dog back.
The newest thing that I'm going through is postpartum depression. I didn't really understand how anyone could be so depressed after giving birth to a beautiful baby. What is there to be sad about? Now I have PPD.
It is awful! I cry everyday. It's mostly when I'm at work. I think about Tristan and I bawl my eyes out because I'm not with him. Sometimes I cry for no reason. I haven't been sleeping well, I never want to eat. I know that my hormones and brain chemicals are out of whack, but I hate feeling like this all of the time.
My doctor prescribed me Zoloft. It's been taking the edge off, but it's making me sick. Apparently my body needs to adjust to it for a couple of weeks though. I have an appt on the 15th to talk about it with my doc.
I think that me being home with Tristan will help so much though. I got my CPR and First Aid Certification today so I'm one step closer to getting my day care business. I'm going to be able to turn in my two weeks after Christmas and that keeps me sane every day I sit behind that desk. Getting state licensed is a lot of work, but it will be so worth it. I'm very grateful to my dad for helping me get started. I couldn't do it without him. At least not this soon.
That's the jist of what's happening now. I'll post again when I can.
