Another Season of Change
When it comes to changes, Josh and I seem to fall prey to the old adage of "When it rains, it pours." What I mean is that changes always seem to happen as more than just one life-altering event; they come in twos, threes, or more.
For example, the year 2002 was a year of many changes for us: we got married, Josh quit his job to begin the pursuit of his MBA, my old company Andersen dissolved and I had to switch firms, then I switched jobs within the new firm, we bought a nused car when the Escort died its tragic death, and we bought our condo. That's a lot going on in just one year, especailly for a newly married couple who are trying, above all else, to adjust to being married!
And now the year 2005 is upon us, and here is what we have going on: I switched back to tax work about a month ago, Josh is going back to Deloitte as a manager in two weeks, and we have a baby due in May which will likely be the biggest change and challenge of all, and then I'll only be going back to work part-time.
Like I said, "When it rains, it pours!"

Second attempt to post!
Congratulations to both of you on your new jobs! Don't worry about baby changes (hee hee), just enjoy the last couple of months of a quiet, well-packaged baby. All too soon he'll be screaming and wiggling (though I'm sure he'll be very cute while doing so).
