Updates....long story short!

Wow!! So it seems as though I have fallen off the blogging wagon for a bit, not because there is nothing to post. It is quite the opposite. After returning from our vacation to Disneyland, life hit...and it hit hard. School programs, 5K's that needed running, baseball 4 nights a week, a new job, and class, and the list goes on and on.

I'll post a quick update for now until I can get all of the pictures down loaded off of a camera we don't use often, because our other one broke in Disneyland.

The new job is going very well. I still miss all of my friends at UVRMC. I realized how much I miss the level II though. I miss the concerned parents, putting all of their faith into me, the nurse, in helping their child get better. I miss their gratitude, and appreciation when they finally get to take their little one home. I am glad to be back taking care of these little ones and their families! I have done CPAP and my first Surfactant baby, lots of IV's and bolus's, antibiotics, and more. I still have a lot to learn, and there are some great nurses to learn from at Orem.

Ava had her second birthday! Pictures and more to come, along with our trip, baseball, dance recitals, and school programs! I finally bit the bullet and signed up to take my Book of Mormon class. (since it is the ONLY class keeping me away from my bachelors degree) It is one night a week here is Springville. A little awkward though, I am the only married with children attendee!!! Reminds me of seminary, with an opening song, prayer, and all! I think I will enjoy it.

I hope this update finds all of my friends well, and I can't wait to catch up on what you all have been doing!
