Update

I know it has been awhile sense I have posted..but it seems like I have been a chicken with my head cut off and am just now feeling a little more organized...our cruise was cancelled due to the H1N1 flu..they so kindly switched it to a Canadian Cruise..we opted out and have a travel voucher good until next Christmas...so we packed out bags and headed to St. George, Zions, and Vegas..it was fun but its sure hard being away from Molly...I finished my Capstone at Primary's..I worked on the ICS floor with all the cute oncology patients...being there I feel so at home and really comfortable..my preceptor was AMAZING...she let me do things that we out of my "scope of practice" but I learned so much! She gave me the compliment that she thought I was ready for graduation? That's scary but she gave me so much confidence..I ultimately want to end up at Primary's but as Molly gets bigger and baby mossback grows in the belly I have this desire to be home with my kids...in school I feel like they build you up to work in a hospital and you should expect nothing less...but 12 hours shifts require alot of time away from my home and family..I leave before they are awake and barley make it home before bed time...clinic hours are sounding so good to me as graduation nears..but then I feel guilty like I am selling out..going to miss out on the med/surg training I should get...but my family comes first...and as soon as mossback is in first grade I know more doors can open...there is always part-time/per-diem...a good thing about nursing..alot of options...another semester has started and it was so nice of them to save this one for the summer and to cram it in 10 weeks...two test almost every week along with clinical and care plans...2 weeks into it and it seems as if we just started..the next eight will fly by...I start my clinical at LDS this week and am a little nervous..this is out last semester with real hands on training...so here I go...the baby is doing so well..the name department is not though..we can't agree on one..I hate when people say this but I think I am going to have to see his cute little face to confirm my ideas...as of now his name is Mossback..courtesy of Chris and Wendy...(his godparents). We are finishing the basement and are all going to move down there...I have tons of pictures and will upload soon..had to take a break from studying..on my next break I will begin...Molly is getting so big almost one month exactly from being two..she is talking so much!! Lot's of dramatic crys..and can unlock, open, and close doors...she is so squishy and I can't imagine life without her..she knows there is a baby in mom's belly and tells him hi...but I'm sure she is not aware of the months to come!

Good update! I've been waiting to hear how you have been doing. Lets get together soon.

You should have come to my house! I am glad you and the baby are doing good. I just don't have any good ideas for boys names. They are hard.
