labor of love

In school we are doing our pediatric/OB rotation...Its going really good so far! We had clinicals on Monday and I was able to be in the L&D area- I wasnt sure if i was going to like it or not- its not for everyone, ya know. Well right after i got there the nurse i was with asked me if i had eaten breakfast... I said yes, but i have had a baby and i think i will be fine. She insisted that it was different and she has had several students pass out or throw up or something. Haha, well i wasnt too worried about it - nothing could be worse than the movies they made us watch in class! Within an hour our patient was ready to have her baby and the doctor got there just in time...It was so incredible! seeing the little baby take his firsts breath was overwhelming and i was trying not to cry bc i thought that might look silly. Wow, it really is so amazing. It of course reminded me of when i had my baby- they are so sweet. im sure all the moms know exactly what im talking about, and if you dont yet, im sure, or at least i hope, its in store...

the best thing that could ever happen to a girl is this....

  1. ha ha. Told you would be a ld nurse. I think that would be the coolest. I cried when baby d was born. Its really cool to see it from a different perspective!

  2. Ahh your brave, I don't know if I could do that! But, I could see you being a great Labor & Delivery nurse. That's awesome that you get all of these experiences going to school.

la historia de me

Gene and I are going on 2 years of marriage and have been so blessed to know eachother. We were worlds apart before we met and then were set up on a blind date- i knew I wanted to be w him forever within 2 weeks we have so much in common and most importantly, we share the same goals. We also knew that those things would never change- we were ready to have a family! And its wonderful to see our plans working out just how we said w our baby on the way:) gene is so excited as am I. I think it's a boy, he thinks it's a girl, but whatever it is it will be perfect! And dylan will be the best big brother!! Also we both work as nurses. We are so blessed to have jobs right now! We know that. We are blessed in so many ways! "And I do believe it’s true That there are roads left in both of our shoes..."(Ben Gibbard)

Dylan didn't really start smiling until he was around 3-4 months. Thats ok though, he was just a serious, thinker baby. I love him just the way he is! 2 months
