Stuffed Burgers

Yeah so this happened yesterday.



His and Her Burgers lol. Stuffed Burgers! (Mine was used with Pao di Quiejo, Brazilian Cheesy Bread) 



Juno had to monitor everything ;)

She kept trying to climb up on the counter we were using, so we gave her a chair to watch Austin who was at the grill outside. (Her buddy)


She also got a new collar the other day when we were in Cheyenne. Everybody got new clothes on my birthday! Austin's wearing the Van Heussen he found at Ross. I also don't know why I never got a black maxi skirt before. Best. Summer wear. Ever. 

(Excuse the silly vignette, clothes were hanging up on the door haha.)


Today we're having Austin's good friend over, and of course that means some fancy cooking. Errands galore have filled our day because we don't really cook that much during a full work week. (Sadly.) Juno's kind of confused at the commotion. I think she thinks it's all for her....

We visited the University of Wyoming because I have another watercolour commission and needed paper from their art section. But they were closed for inventory. And we already stuck coins in the parking meter... lame! So we hung out in the Wyoming Union for a bit sipping on some cold drinks. 

It's weird because I feel like we just moved here just because. I forget we are still students and came here for school! We got a house and jobs that support us, so it's been strange to think "oh yeah, I'm a student!" Albeit we want better jobs and to do what we love, but can I say we're happy even now?

Austin cannot wait to start, and neither can I! 



Go Pokes! xoxo

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...

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...

Holiday Hullabaloo

It is full blown Christmas at the Carmens! The boys have been busy with holiday crafts, decorating and drawing. Because the colder weather draws us indoors and off our scooters and bikes (though we still go on walks these days in the bike trailer all bundled up)  Our house these days looks more like this: We’ve had so much fun doing all the typical holiday crafts and baking with the boys! We went to Queensgate Gardens where they got to meet Santa and make their own ornament. We also made a Costco ginger bread house (you guys this thing is $9 and prebuilt!), snow globes, sugar cookies, decorated foam gingerbread men... the holidays are the best to fill your time up with kid activities.                                                Finally, and for the first time ever I have a dedicated crafting space. We are still in our apartment saving and waiting for the perfec...
