Bon Voyage Wells Fargo!!!


Well, I'm happy to announce that I am officially done with working at Wells Fargo!!! Thank goodness for babies and indefinite maternity leaves!!!

My last day was Saturday the 19th of September. I got to spend Sunday with Dan, and wake up on monday morning, the 21st and my birthday, knowing I didn't have to go to work that day or the rest of the week or never again if I choose! How's that for a nice birthday present. Of course going into labor and popping out this little boy out would have been a nice birthday present too...but you can only expect so much! :)

I started working at Wells Fargo Feb. 3rd I do believe, and found out about a week later that I was finally expecting our first bundle of joy. It was almost surreal, balancing my cash drawer, turing in my keys, and leaving work for the last time, and not having out little boy here or at least coming, because the two have been so together for me. My learinng curve at work and with this pregnancy all happened together. My highs and lows of being a teller and morning sickness, etc. happened almost correspondingly. It just seemed to me that when I was done there, I'd also be done with the baby waiting game, but it seems I have a bit more waiting to do :) And this little guy will be all worth that wait!!!

I'm not going to say that working full time, 40 hours a week, up until week 37 was easy, because it wasn't! But I do have to admit what a blessing this job was for us, and thank my Heavenly Father for always providing a way even before I knew I needed it. Thank you Heavenly Father, and thank you Wells Fargo, and thank goodness I'm done! I'm off to be a Mommy!!!

Last days of work are always exciting. Especially if a baby is on the way!
