Hair done!


A little shorter then I wanted...sigh, that always happens...but the highlights are nice...slowly getting back to normal...no more black hehe

Almost 28!


Here I am just a couple days away from the big 28....and I feel great :)
Since May I have lost almost 30 pounds...yes thats right.
I was around 177 when I started bootcamp...and was a size 12...
I am now 147 pds and am a size 9; almost 8...
I feel wonderful about myself again :)
I still want to lose a bit more, but am in no rush. I am going to enjoy my holiday season after the stress of the last couple months.
between the miscarriage and James in hospital for 10 days, I need time to relax.
I treated myself to a brand new pair of lululemon pants (size 6 even !) they are expensive, but well deserved hehe.
Sorry for the lack of updating...but as you know James being in hospital took my time.
I am not going to post about it on here...as I have enough notes about it on facebook.
We are looking forward to a nice holiday season. Almost time to put the tree up (rule is after my bday but it will be Dec 1 i think )
I am most likely going to be getting a part time line at the hospital. It will give me between 9-11 shifts a month, ALL 8 hours, and 90% 7-3 shifts. CANT BEAT THAT. Nursing now a days is almost all 12 hrs. Days nights...
so if I get this...minimal nights.
It will be PERFECT. AND it will give me benefits which will include maternity top-ups :) for when the time happens. I will get closer to my regular wage while on mat leave! cant beat that!!!

Me and My Scrubs


James

He has been having issues with his tummy for about 6 weeks or so. He will randomly throw up. He had issues with going to the bathroom too. I took him to the Dr. and they said its normal for some kids to puke...so I left it.
When we got back from vacation it had gotten worse. He then got a cold and fever. Once he was better from that, he continued to get sick and say he had an ouchy tummy. We have had 3 pukes in the van..not fun.
So I take him to the dr. and he sends us to childrens hospital. What a waste of time, as they are referring us to a pediatrician. I guess it will take some time to watch him and figure out what is wrong. It can be many things that will need to be ruled out if it continues. Sigh. A long process.
Poor guy. Otherwise he is super healthy the Dr says. :)

I didn't update after vacation. there would be too much to say! lol
You can see the pics on facebook :)
And I have decided I am a forever cruiser now, and we will be planning another for the summer hopefully. The kids LOVED it...and so did we. It just needs to be 2 weeks from now on :) We are looking at a hawaii one :)

I am still working a lot. I am loving delta, and am hoping to get a part time 8hr line soon. That will give me 2 shifts a week. It is hard to find 8hr ones in nursing too so I want to grab it while I can...plus the bonus of maternity benefit top ups.

Its been one month since the miscarriage. I am hoping things go back to normal soon for my body.
My best friend just had a baby 5 days ago..I am so jealous lol. He is a little handful but I still want one :)
