Off to the Windy City!

Well, I am officially a part of the management team at KPMG. Well, as of July 1st I will be. They actually promoted me. I was pretty nervous there for awhile. Between to the tough economic times, layoffs at the firm over the past 6 months, and my taking a 5 month hiatus during the craziest busy season of all, I wasn't sure if it was going to happen or not. But I'm very thankful to my managers and partners that fought for my promotion; now, the pressure is on! It's going to probably be the toughest year of my career, but I know I have a great support system at home and at work to help me through it. My first challenge: heading to Chicago for 3 1/2 days of training.

Ugghh, I miss my little boy already, and I haven't even gotten on the damn plane yet! :( I'm hesitant to leave him for just one night with one of our parents, and now I have to leave him for 3 nights?! How will we ever survive?! Well, I'm pretty sure Jordan is fully capable of taking care of Austin all by himself, it's me I'm worried about. How will I go without seeing that beautiful smile of my precious little turkey everyday? He is my world. Good thing I have my own hotel room, because I have a feeling I may be a little sad and lonely at night. I threatened Jordan that I better get at least one video and a few pics daily while I'm gone. And I'm pretty thankful that I have a wonderful husband who is fully capable of taking care of our son by himself for a few days. Not all hubbies are like that. Now, if he takes him to Hooters while I'm gone or cuts his hair, then that's a different story! I am just going to miss him terribly, and can't wait til I get back. :(

Austin will be 7 months old next week, so I'll have an update on all that fun stuff, and some pics, in the next few days!
