Dad and Mom

Mom and dad update!

Well, your dad started school again a few weeks ago. He's basically gone from 7:00am to 7:00pm Monday - Friday. So that leaves me pretty tired by the end of the day!

He's taking two math classes and a social work class. Unfortunately this semester is just getting classes out of the way, so they aren't very exciting...

First day of school!

Dad's old computer broke a few months ago. So he did a lot of research on computers, tablets and laptops. In the end, he decided that he wanted an iPad!

So he ordered it from online and it came with a free engraving! You don't ever see the engraving because the case covers it, but this is what I put for him because he didn't really care about it:

Oh, and he loves me so much, he let me add an iPad mini to that purchase... 

Also a few weeks ago I had another MRI done on my ankle. My hemangioma has been causing my foot to hurt and back when I first found out what it was, they told me it wasn't dangerous but if it ever started to grow or feel different to have it looked at again.

So after 13 years since I discovered the bump and 8 years after my last MRI, I am finally having it checked out again...

The absolute worst part of being in the hospital after you were born was the IV that they put in my hand. It was right on top and started to annoy after a while. So when they had to put an IV in for my MRI, I was not excited! Luckily I only had to have it in for about an hour.

They were supposed to call me with results today (3 weeks later!!!) but alas, still no call!

I really thought I would hear from them today since I called three times already... I just need to know whats going on with my foot! It's kind of annoying to limp around every time I stand up!

This is a quote that I read in a magazine while waiting for my turn on the MRI machine...

Since your dad started school that day I didn't really have someone to watch you. Luckily my BFF Jenessa was free! So you got to go hang out with her for a couple hours.

One of her room mates had a cat and so you got to make a new friend! Jenessa sent me this picture. I absolutely love it! It's just so cute! (even though I'm super allergic to cats and therefore do not always enjoy having them around...)

I love, love, LOVE to stare at you while you sleep! you are so precious!

Raising your hand!

One of my favorite looks that you make, your rounded mouth!

matching headbands!

Giraffe toy!

dramatically sleeping!

It has been tough adjusting to having a baby. We have a few empty units and they need to be painted and cleaned. I try to get over to work on them during the day but if you are not eating, you spit up all over and if you're not spitting up, you are taking a nap! So I am excited for you to get a little older so that I can actually be a help to your daddy!

Managing apartments is the worst job on the planet.

We are so very blessed to have gotten this opportunity and we thank our Father in Heaven every day. But if we are being completely (or even just a little bit) honest, it's the worst!

I will literally throw a massive party the day we are able to move from this job. By massive, I don't necessarily mean a lot of people. I mostly mean I will by ice cream and Oreos, turn on my disco ball, dim the lights and dance for 8 hours or probably more.

I'll turn the music up really loud (because it won't matter if people know I am home) and I will open all the windows so everyone can hear (because I won't care if anyone sees me).

Anyway, we are very grateful for our boss and would definitely not still be managing if he was not our boss. He has a heart of gold and is so SO kind to us.

I am sitting here, trying to think of other things about your dad and I but our lives revolve so much around you! We love that fact though.

You definitely make our lives a lot more meaningful and exciting!
