Employed!

I have a job!

I haven't mentioned anything about working on the blog since we moved to CA. We moved here in August, I got the house all settled and finished at the end of September, then traveled home for Thanksgiving and Christmas. So, we decided that I would wait until after the holidays to start looking. 

So on January 2nd, I started looking at my options. I thought about doing the temp-agency thing, golf courses, and nannying. In the end, I decided the job I would most enjoy is nannying. I'm not a big fan of desk jobs, and I absolutely love kids. 

4 interviews and 3 job offers later, I found the perfect family! Today is my first day, and I think I will be SO happy in this position. The precious little girl is 9 months old, and she is just the happiest baby I've ever seen! Plus, this will satisfy my baby fever for the time being :)

Me and my sweet Meg! I nannied for Meg and her brother, Brooks, in high school!

    That's actually not a bad idea for me, either! Spending my time with a 9-month-old would cheer me up every day.
