It Plopped.

Yeah, overnight it plopped snow! We didn't have barely any of this the day before!
This morning, no one could get out of our parking lot to school. But thankfully we are all married BYU-Idaho students looking out for one another, and everyone came out of the apartments this morning to help push cars onto the more-so packed road. Later in the day they brought this bulldozer.






I have the 8am class, and Austin goes around 9am. He worked so hard to get me out of here and drop me off to school that I decided to walk home so he could have the car to get between work and school. (Normally I steal the car away to go home and work on my online class then pick him up from work.) Boy was that an adventure... I didn't realize (or think) about how deep the snow was. If I were to guess it snowed a foot and a half. I was literally walking like a cat with tape on the bottom of its paws. Lift a leg up POP, stomp down. Lift the other leg up POP, stomp down. Some places it was up to my knees haha!


In other news, I get to plan a baby shower for one of my best friends!! I made invitations last night :) Glitter glue, fancy scissors, and ribbon make everything awesome.


Austin and I aren't doing anything big for valentine's because school is pretty heavy right now, but I decided to paint my nails for the festivities anyway. I imagine we'll be cooking up an awesome dinner like we always do come the 14th!

The Last Stretch

I am on the last little stretch before the surgery! It's amazing how in denial I can still be, thinking that I do not have anything wrong. But then you get a wake up call when your body does funky things you can't stop, and then you fall down the stairs twice. Once I popped my shoulder, and the second I popped a hip and broke my back molar coming down on my side. So I got that tooth fixed ASAP, thank the heavens it didn't damage any roots! At the dentist my mouth was opened for an extended period of time, and needles were involved. Just when you think you have this whole Dystonia thing under control.... another reminder! I got lock jaw while working as a floor nurse! My jaw had increasing pain through the week, and I revisited the dentist. Nothing wrong with my tooth. At work, it sealed shut (and not to be gross) but when you have an intense cramp like that, it causes immense pain. I do in fact throw up sometimes from the pain. Well if your mouth seals... and tons...

Call Me a SAHM in Training

Stay at Home Mom (SAHM)  Besides a medical leave and two maternity leaves, I’ve always been a full-time plus on call nurse mom. I am now almost two months into being a SAHM and I would have to still say I’m training! A lot of you have told me routine is so important, and I’ve been trying my darndest to do that. We do library time or errands in the morning, naptime and quiet time after lunch, and art and outdoor/indoor active  play until dad comes home! Some days it blows up in my face, much like what we’d call a s-tshow at work, haha! Except these are my monkeys and my circus! But mostly because I am learning and loving it, too. I struggle with anxiety and depression. Ever since I was little. My post-partum depression with R was so difficult. I am so lucky to have an incredible husband and health team that honestly kept me alive during that time. Luckily, I was treated prior to giving birth to A too because a) it was known I get PPD and b) it’s better and easier to tr...

Sunday Eats

Finals are upon us! Wish us luck!  So a little about life lately... or you can skip to the awesome food at the bottom lol. Well, we might need that luck especially cause I kicked a stool on accident in the print lab and broke two toes all crazy like. Then proceeded in my 12 hour no-break printing frenzy standing on them dang toes.... and sick.....lol! That's what I get for not wearing my brace. Good thing we are done with Insanity! That's right, you heard us! Done with Insanity, the 9 week program :D We both are going to take our pictures soon and post them! We are doing hip hop abs for the next two weeks as finals are happening (and it's less intense on my toes) then starting Insanity all over. Yes, we are insane thank you ;) We actually were kind of freaking out because this fall, we apply to law and nursing school! We finish in April, but will hear most likely in the winter where we will head out to.  I might wait to apply until Austin chooses a scho...
