Spoiled...

Sometimes I forget. I forget what life was like with a husband first starting out in medical school. I forget those first few days of school that made Christopher want to pack everything up and just go back home...he thought there was no way he could get through four years of this! I forget about the professors that each assign incredulous amounts of information for students to not only study but be able to recite forwards, backwards, up and down. I forget about the many nights alone so Christopher could study at the school, the finals weeks when I NEVER saw him, and all the stress that came with it. I forget about the anxiety wondering where we'll spend the last two years of medical school, of not seeing my husband for two weeks during his preceptorship after just having a baby. True, there's still lots of scary unknowns ahead, even more nerve-wracking and stress-inducing than these, but for now, I'll just enjoy being spoiled while having a husband at home!

After starting out with some "tougher" rotations, Christopher is now on a string of light rotations. This one in particular has him home by 10 or ll o'clock in the afternoon. Yesterday, he came home announcing that we should go to the Imagination Station in Toledo (basically a children's museum with some pretty cool things for even us big kids). He'd yet to go and the kids loved it when we went with friends, so off we went.

And there has been lots of time for the kids to have fun with dad in the snow.

And as for me, hubby's been here so I can grocery shop by myself, have someone to beat me at games other than Candyland and go for nighttime runs to Krispy Kreme to satisfy a pregnant woman's sugary cravings. It's great to have you home, hon!
