Capstone Placement!!

I am super excited to announce that I have been placed on the Infant Medical Surgical Unit for my final Capstone semester!!! I am so happy because that was my first choice and not very many people actually got their first choice, if any of their choices. I LOVE babies and I LOVE Primary Children's Hospital so I have a feeling next semester is going to be great! I just hope I got a good preceptor....that always kills it if they're bad.

I am so excited for Christmas break! Thanksgiving was so great and now I don't want to be back in school :(. I just want to buy presents, bake lots of goodies, and decorate a tree with my hubby while we drink egg-nog and cuddle on the Love Sac :). Sadly, I still have three weeks to go until that can happen. So until then, I will put up with all the homework and papers and daydream about all the fun stuff we're going to do once I'm free!!!

Some fun over Thanksgiving!

Lately

It's been quite a while since I've last posted (sorry Kendra lol) so there's a lot to catch up on. Last month was quite the adventure with fall break, my sister coming to visit, and Josh's birthday. We had so much fun while Sadie was up here and I'm not even going to begin to describe all the stuff we did because it would take FOREVER. But long story short, October was AMAZING and although I was sad to see it go, I was also excited because I really want school to be out. I can't wait for Thanksgiving in two weeks! I've been dying to go home and see my family and Josh is pretty stoked too. We always have so much fun when we go back to Nevada :). Speaking of Josh, he's almost done with school!!!! Just two more classes and he's got his Masters degree. We have been talking about him getting his Doctorate while he's at it. Why not, right? I think he's crazy because I can't imagine being in school another three years but it would totally be worth it as far as the jobs and money goes. I always dreamed of marrying a doctor..... ;). So we shall see about all of that. I guess we have to graduate first before we begin our next big adventure. I have been doing clinicals in Maternity at the University Hospital and it has been so great! I love holding babies and I've been learning a ton. This is an area that no one ever really learns about until they're the ones pregnant so it has been really fun getting to see what is in store for me when we decide to take that step....... and what I am NOT looking forward too as well. However, babies are the last thing on my mind right now. We want to travel and see the world while we're still young and that doesn't really work when you have a little one climbing all over you and demanding every second of your day. So after graduation, that's our next big adventure. TRAVEL!!! I can't wait! We have both worked so hard to get where we are today and I can't wait to just take time to enjoy life and reap the benefits of our hard labors. Until then, I have a presentation to give tomorrow, constant exams each week, and endless homework that seems stupid and useless. And Josh gets to work, and go to school, and work some more. Yay for hard work! Christmas please come soon......
