fun in the sun

Tanya and I took the girls to the pool yesterday afternoon. It was beautiful outside! I *heart* summer SO MUCH. It is to short a season here in MN. For some reason this year it is just hitting me harder, that summer is so short. I want to be off for the summer or have a more flexible job. Ellie is only going to be this into her mommy for a few more years... then she'll want nothing to do with me... and I want to make these years so fun for her. And not just 2 days a week. :( It probably doesn't help that I don't enjoy my job... or that it isn't AT ALL flexible. M-F 8-4:30. Everyone thinks those hours are soooooo great. I think they suck. I want the flexibility of working a few weekends a month and having some weekdays off. I had that at my last job and it made life so easy when it came to making dr or dentist appt's, going grocery shopping when the store wasn't jam packed, spending more time as a family (Greg's schedule is as follows: Week 1 - Monday, Tuesday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Week 2 - Wednesday and Thursday. Rotating that schedule. So he has lots of days off during the week) and being able to spend more time with my friends. Tanya has off Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and Jess has a schedule as a nurse that allows her lots of weekdays off. Excuse my rant. I'm just not happy with my life as far as the job front goes and I'm just venting. I'm just waiting for something else to fall into place... anywho... back to yesterday... here are some pics from the pool!



When we got home we had some dinner and I threw her in the tub... all cleaned up with pj's on and within seconds she was out... the end of a great day :)
