Big News!

Well, we have a very big announcement to make. We have a LOT of friends and family so please don't be upset if we didn't personally tell you our news. Things are going to change in the Sampson household. Some people might be surprised, while others have seen it coming. Some might think it's too soon; some will say, "It's about time!" Are you on the edge of your seat? Want to know what it is? Okay. I'll tell you. First I'm going to make you look at pictures to build up the anticipation of the moment. :)
So much for establishing the "head" of the bed...
Cooling off with a frozen teether on a hot day.
Noah sat with his hand like this while I read his bedtime story one night. It was adorable and made my heart melt.
We gave a thank you note to our next door neighbors. Noah helped sign it. His first signature! Daniel told them they should probably hang on to it...might be worth something someday! 
So excited to be helping with laundry!

 

 

 


Okay. As promised. Here's our news. I'm going back to work!  Full time! (Ha! You thought I was pregnant, didn't you?!?!) St. Louis Children's Hospital had an opening so I applied and got it! This is a decision we prayed about a LOT (and I'm still not quite sure about it!). I'm incredibly thankful to my awesome hubby for working so hard so that I could stay home with our sweet boy these past (almost) 10 months, but we really think this is the best thing for our family right now. I'm excited about the job, but not so excited about leaving my little man all day five days a week. We're going to start Noah in part time daycare next week to have a little bit of a transition period (for him and me!) and then I start in two weeks! We would appreciate some prayers if you think of us. That this wouldn't mess up Noah's sleep (we've been sleeping through the night for two weeks!!!). That he would drink his milk at daycare (he only drinks a couple of ounces all day long when I leave him...). And that we would all adjust easily! Yay for big changes!

  1. Congratulations Dawn!!! You totally had me on the edge of my seat! I am so happy for you, the hospital is lucky to have you. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. Noah is going to do great, I just know it! The children always do way better than the adults when transition happens I think. :) Love ya!
