Lullabies? Diapers? Spit Up? No Biggie.

I am spending way too much time with babies. Today, one of the girls who works in the room I have been subbing in for the past week asked me if I was becoming "a baby whisperer." I seriously think I am. My ability to juggle multiple infants at once-and keep them all relative sane, if not happy-is astounding. Today I was sitting on the floor with four children under a year old. Every time one started to make a peep I knew exactly what to do to distract them. We have a child in our room that is probably around 10-12 weeks old. My new BBF-best baby friend. I am constantly being told by coworkers that the babies could be my babies. All I know is, this is some darn good practice for when I have a child. Especially if I got the twins I crave deep down inside (really random side note-ARD always tells me how twins run in his family whenever I comment on my desire for multiples. To which I kind of wanna be like, ok sooo lets get married and make that happen. Not that we are even dating).

Anyways, I am working tomorrow and Friday in there this week, so I am definitely getting my baby fill. Its kind of nice.

Another teacher from another classroom came in to our room today asking me about dates for this coming March (and May, for that matter), telling me she needed to know by Wednesday, as she was planning to go to Florida. I am afraid to commit though. I don't know what I'll be doing in March. If someone loved me, I would have a career job-or at least an interview for one. I understand this is your vacation, but at the same time, my employed life is a constant up and down right now-I can't even commit to regular exercise classes, much less covering your vacation. Yeesh. I don't even know my store schedule for next week, thats how out of my own loop I am.

My shoulders hurt and I need to wake up in less than 8 hours, so its time to call it a night. Until my next (hopefully less rant-y post).
