Yesterday was a big day for my Mom and Dad.
First of all Dad got a great new job up at UCLA, so he won't have to commute down to Irvine anymore. Mom and Dad calculated that he is gonna be able to save up to $15 a day, given the steep gas prices in LA these days. What's more, Dad got a 10% salary raise as well, so now he and Mom can save even more money for my future college education. (well they actually have to just save enough money for a new car and baby seat first). Dad is real happy about the job because he thinks it's gonna be challenging - something that he has been longing for in his career for a while lately. He also tells his friends that he's happy he'll be much closer to Mom during the pregnancy. He'll just be ten minutes down the road now, if she needs him!
The other big news of the day is that my grandparents showed up in LA today, and Mom was able to break the news to them that I'm on my way. They were pretty surprised, but seemed pretty happy. Granddad told Mom that she has to be very careful to take care of herself now that she is responsible for two people. Grandmom says she's happy too, but she would prefer if Dad and Mom got married right away.
