What have I been doing?

Sorry everyone, it's been a while since I've posted something. Yah, I'm alive, but nothing too exciting has happened. Work is going well. I held a cute little 6 mo. old baby today for a couple hours because he was just not content to sleep in his crib. The nurse giving me report was right when she said he "likes to be held". It was fun, he slept in my arm, caused paralysis, and after handing him to my tech to be fed, I was able to get the blood back into my arm. :) Ha, but he was worth it! Well tonight I did see Twilight though! Overall I liked it! It was fun to see the book come to life. My missionary brother is doing very well in the MTC. He's been there a month now and although learning spanish is hard for him at times, he's relying on the Lord every minute and loving it. He says he trys to run 2 miles a day and do ab work outs because he's trying to regain his six pack. My family had a good laugh at that one. Well it's crazy that December is almost here, but life moves on. I hope to hear from you all soon. Enjoy this Christmas season, and remember it's the spirit of Christ that we're celebrating!

We went "Into the Woods" to have a great night!

Laura, Jackie and me

Me on a toadstool!

Check it out, the prince is right behind us!

Agony! No, that is not what us girls felt at "Into the Woods", but the princes in the musical surely felt that way a few times. I went with my good friends from work, Laura Hess, Jackie Elliot, and Jessica (Laura's roommate, who works in the PICU). The song "Agony" was hilarious, one of my new favorites. I've now added another musical to my seen list. I just love them! "Into the Woods is about a Baker and his wife who want a child, but come across Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, Raapunzel, and Cinderella in their quest for one. The message of the play is that we are all not alone and that we must work together in order to accomplish each of our goals in life. I had a lot of fun! After the play, we found a toadstool to pose on. We also found one of the princes, who didn't appear to be in much agony anymore. However, I highly suggest if you haven't seen the play, to understand the "Agony" song, you should go to this link at Youtube and watch it - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rc_GEhu6oCY. It's great! You'll laugh, I promise!

It's snowing!

Welcome to my house in the winter. It's a new site for me too! Well this morning I woke up to whiteness! I knew this storm was coming and thus I was very grateful I didn't have to work this morning. However I was intending to go to the gym but that goal has been shot down. I'm not a big fan of driving in the snow. So I got up, made a good breakfast, got back into bed, read a few chapters of my "Chronicles of Narnia" complete series book, and blogged. I decided everyone needed to see what I am seeing at my house. I hope to make a snowman later. Oh yah, and it was just two days ago that the ice cream man drove down my street. No lie!
