I've been thinking...

I often think of things that I would really rather be then a nurse. Not that I don't love being a nurse, but I've tried other things but always go back because it is what I am. The thing I guess I would like to be is a realistic romance novel writer. I guess it would go like this: And as he gazed deep into her amber eyes he kissed her fiercely. He suddenly straightened as he heard the familiar sound of tiny feet running across the floor and cries of "Daddy why is the door shut" come from the other side of the locked bedroom door.
I guess I would probably never sell a book but it would be satisfying to write what really happens in most parents bedroom. This would also confirm my husband's belief that there is a hidden alarm that wakes up children when the mid line of the bed has been crossed and the first kiss has been started. They suddenly awaken with nightmares, the need to potty, or wake up ready to spend time with the parents and watch Saturday morning cartoons from mom and dads bed. But, really we wouldn't have it any other way! I guess we will have to see what I really wanna be next year!

Well, the kids are asleep...

My kids are finally down for a nap and I have tried to sleep but baby Lila has other plans. I really believe that child has a never ending party going on in there but her days of partying are numbered! We go Thursday to set a date for her big arrival. Jasmine is getting anxious and now will not leave my side for fear that Lila will fall out at any time. Which makes for an interesting time taking a shower or doing anything that requires a door shut. So now all showers are interrupted at least 4-5 times with her checking to make sure she doesn't miss Lila falling out. Boy is she going to be surprised at the hospital when she can't go across the hall for the doctor to cut baby Lila out (which is how her big sister is describing it to her). This should be interesting!!!!

Blessed most definitely

I guess that I have never been someone to become wrapped up in the holidays and become emotional during this time of the year because I am usually working a good part of the holiday season. This year is different and I guess it is because I have taken some time to stop and enjoy the simple things like just eating breakfast each morning with the my kids. I am blessed and getting to spend these holidays with family and my kids while they are out for school. I guess the third time is the charm, with baby Lila I'm learning to slow down.

Looking at the walls,,,,,,

Well after a long week at work I am now on maternity leave after my husband left work early to meet me at my doctors appointment. Baby Lila Jennifer should be making her presence know in about 4 more weeks. We are all getting so excited about the arrival of a new bundle of joy. So now I am spending my time getting the house in order and looking at these walls everyday. The kids are very excited and I guess it couldn't have come at a better time since school is out and I can be with them more. I'm trying to be better and update some pics of the family on my site, I really do have pics i just haven;t figured out to import them on our new computer. Merry Christmas to all!
