Saturday April 29th The good and the Bad

Ok, so Dad did not take the new job at the new company. He was just not ready to leave the only company he knows for a lateral move. Hard to walk away from 4 weeks vacation and knowing so many people. The company has always done right by dad and he has been there for 12 years, has been able to provide well for his family. He is just not ready to risk that. Having a baby changes ALL of your views on careers, work, life, and jobs in general. It took dad a while but he realized that he is not much of a risk taker.

So now onto the good news and bad news. Charlotte slept from 7pm until 5am!!!! That is the good news!! The bad news is at 5:30am when she was done feeding from mom, dad was returning her to her room and crib....mom was heading downstairs in the dark to get some water and suddenly ....thump thump CRASH. What the hell was that dad though? He ran to the stairs, flipped on the light switch....and there was mom laying at the bottom of the stairs all balled up.

After about 3-4 minutes he was able to get her up...although she is not able to stand on her foot. We think its broken or pretty damn close. We will find out in a few hours when we visit the doctor and get some x-rays done. This will be interesting...mom on crutches with a 4 month old. Not sure how this will work out. Luckily mom has plenty of pain killers left from the c section. Dad will have to take some.
