I don't understand how time gets away from me so fast!
Has it really been since April since I last posted on here?!?!?
Well, I missed you guys and writing on here, so I'm back! School starts once again for me next Monday and I can't wait for the semester to begin. This semester in nursing school I get to enter into baby and lady-land. Throughout the semester I will be rotating throughout pediatrics, labor & delivery and all things baby. I'm not gonna lie, I'm a little nervous....I never babysat as a kid and holding other people's children kinda freak me out because I'm scared that I might break them.
During this summer I got floated to the pediatrics unit at St. V's and the nurse asked me to change a diaper and I kinda freaked. I looked at her and said, "I can change a 60 year old man's diaper like no problem...but with a baby, I have no idea what I'm doing." She stared at me for a moment, giggled and then showed me how to change the baby. Let me tell you what...much easier than a 60 year old man! LOL. So if you need anyone from age 0-100 that needs a diaper change...I'm your gal!
Other things this summer that have occurred besides working at the hospital is that I've done tons of wedding planning! (girly squeal!) The cater and florist are booked. Centerpieces are planned and bought. The only thing on my list to check off is finding a DJ for the wedding. I have some ideas, so all I need to do is visit and listen to them. Then that can be checked off the list too!
So many ideas! Let the decorating begin!
When it comes to food and cooking, I haven't really been doing anything too exciting on my own. I've actually been planning out my menu's a week in advanced each week and most of the recipes have been coming from some of my favorite blogs. Here are a few of my favorite summer recipes....
