Easter 2014

Easter seemed really busy this year, I felt like we were all over the place. I was really lacking in organizing and planning this year. When I'm in school mode I feel like I rush and last minute stuff. I made a promise to myself to make sure I do as much holiday stuff with my family as I can with school. I don't want to take anything away from my kids because I made a choice to go to school. We went to central park for their Easter Egg hunt, went to families houses and had our own hunt up at the park. The kids were happy and that is all that matters.

More updates

Beach trips are always amazing, the kids had a blast and kept busy. None were sunburned in the process. We did have a tired little boy and a goldfish spill on the way home. Trips to meet friends to get nursing advice is always fun with Nikki and Dani.
I was able to take the girls to the Pirate show with Jodie and Kelly, it was super fun but only a one time go kind of thing. The show was fun and the kids got to participate with our team pirate.
One night a got a phone call from Kelly to go out and TP houses. Kelly was an expert in teaching the girls how to unroll the TP then throw it. Needless to say we were cracking up and mission accomplished.

So many pictures from my phone!

I have so many pictures on my phone that I need to get into my blog. So much has happened in the 16 weeks that I was in school. I took pictures but never blogged on them because there was simply no time to do that. We have our reading with daddy every night and Im trying to encourage my kids to pick up a book every once in a while. I really do hope that they start to like reading a bit more. I received flowers from a friend (which was not necessary I was honored that I could help) for stopping by to check on her dad because he was not feeling feel. The thought was a nice surprise when I got a text that said open your front door and these beautiful flowers were there for me.
Icecream with some of our favorite people is always fun, I really like taking them to Menchies!
Miss Talia lost her first tooth and the tooth fairy hooked her up!

My first baseball game

It was really nice to have someone out there that thinks of you every once in a while, even if they are not close with you they think of you. A friend of mine offered Dodger tickets to me and I figured I would try it out. Jake didn't want to go so I took Talia, baby Jake and my parents. I was surprised that the kids did so well, but after a while Talia was asking to go home. I like how relaxing the atmosphere is and it defiantly not as intense as a hockey or foot ball game. It was really fun and I would go again~

Field trip for Talia

I wasn't able to go on the field trip to Underwood farms but I'm grateful to know that there were people who went would keep a quick eye on Talia. Talia absolutely loves the Evans family, when ever she sees Cody or Cory she has to be right next to them. These are pictures that Cory and Laurel sent me and it cracked me up. Poor Cody!

updated life

I have been behind on blogging just due to being in the semester of school. We have had birthday's, make overs, shopping for makeup with daddy, completion of OB and talks in church. Just because the I was in school my personal life was extremely busy. I missed out on vacations and didn't see many people. I know its tuff now but I have been able to use my knowledge to help others and answer questions in regards to their health. Looking forward to the continuation of this journey, stress and all!

It's official!

What a long semester! It was like the song that never ends, my nerves were shot  by the end of this. I love being in the medical field but the stress is so thick. Today was my final and I woke up at 5am and the test wasn't till 8, I couldn't sleep. I studied so much and still felt very unprepared to take the test. Everyone was on edge, many of us only needed 30-40 points to pass. I needed 33 out of 75! Yeah, you would think that was not hard but it is. The test was so hard, I had to guess on a lot of questions! After the test I went with the girls to grab something to eat then needed to head back to get baby Jake. I didn't really eat, my nervous were a mess. I got home and picked up my son and headed home to clean. I cleaned the whole office and my bedroom. Sounds funny but I wanted no signs of books or flashcards in my way.  Rachel came by later on and I needed that hug from her, I was a hot mess.
I needed to go to a fundraiser for the school, Jake was working so I took the kids and headed up to Vince's in pdale. On the way there I got my grade......58! I was shaking, no joke! All of my friends passed some of the kids didn't and that was sad to see. I'm so glad I went to the fundraiser, I needed to unwind and just be with my kids.
I'm so grateful for my friends who have supported me this semester. I really have seen who cares and I love them so much for it.
So as of today I will be a 3rd semester student come August!!!! But for now, I'm on vacation!
