Well my life has come to a screaching hault because of a lost camera cord. I blame Continental Airlines and myself.... For some reason I put the camera cord in a bag that I checked but kept the camera in my purse and lo and behold the bag I checked is gone forever. It was lost back in april when I flew out for court's wedding and after a series of phone calls, claim reports, and frustration, I'll probably never see that bag again nor half of Elise's bottles or the camera cord =( Hopefully the airlines wont deny my claim and they will send me some sort of monetary compensation. So I think I'll put old pictures of Elise up.
In other news, I found a job. After pursing many many options (like a nursing internship thing, a staffing agency, and home health..yikes...) I decided to be a community nurse- who would have guessed?! I will be PRN (as needed) and I will be going with a wonderfully nice lady named Liberty to various companies and community places to do health fairs. I will be poking people to measure their cholesterol and shugas (as rach and mason like to refer to diabetes!) and teaching people how to take care of themselves. I never invisioned myself doing this as my nursing career but I feel very right about it and somewhat at home because of all my community work with my old secretary job at the volunteer office in Provo. I am excited to keep my license up and make a bit of extra money on the side. I have orientation for 4 days the second week in june so both momma's are helping out with Elise. I love the fact that with my job I will never:
Work on Sundays
Work full time
Work a 12 hour shift
Clean up poop!
Have to confront a doctor- not that I would be afraid to- its just nice to do my own thing!
It is going to be a great I do believe so hopefully all is well and I'll keep you updated on my new career. Bry says with the pay I'm making that he'll just retire and buy a gold watch... Oh bry!
Well update on Elise- I think she has a cold and so do I. I have been sickly lately and I'm not sure why. Elise woke up yesterday with a tiny cough (cutest little cough you've ever heard!) and a stuffy nose. So bry called the pediatrician and I brought her in - and guess what- she did not cough ONCE while we were there and she had no fever (which she had over the weekend) and no stuffy nose.... So I looked like a paranoid mother...I know where I got THAT from! Anywho after $20 wasted on a co-pay I was able to gather one piece of valuable information from the doctor...Elise weighs in at 16 pounds 1 ounce! She's a chunk. She'll be 4 months on June 3rd. I love that baby to pieces though and have an unbelievable amount of fun with her. Her new milestones include:
1. Rolling over! From back to belly (she hates getting stuck on her belly though it's pretty funny!)
2. Grabbing her feet and realizing they are indeed attached to her body
3. Laughing. I got it on video tape! I'll eventually learn how to put it on the computer to show ya.
4. Yelling- it is not crying it is yelling which makes me laugh every time- even though she's mad!
5. Enjoying reading- finally! she loves to "read" with me by trying to babble over me=)
Well that is all the news I have so I will post some pictures on here and be on my way!
