Still Here

Well sorry everyone I know it has been forever since I last posted and this is going to be a boring post because there are no pictures but everyone has been telling me I need to update my blog. So here is the latest on us. Life had been busy. Ted is getting right into school and is busy reading reading and doing more reading. I guess this is what I have to look forward to for 3 years! Ted actually flew home last weekend to see his dad after he had bypass surgery which was a really big surprise to all of us because he is so healthy. His dad is recovering well and is making a fast recovery. Ofcourse while he was home he also was conviently able to attend the first BYU home game which was to hard for him to even talk about.
As for me while Ted was gone I went and babysitted for my sister all of her 5 kids for the weekend while her husband planned a surprise trip to NEw York for them. I even took all 5 kids the youngest 15 months up to 9 yrs to all 3 hours of church and did my best to keep them quite during sacrement. I must say it brought on an entire new understanding and appreciation for mother as I struggled to keep Jack the youngest quite and in the row and everyone else happy and not fighting. It was the longest hour of my life! I must say after the exhausting weekend I would rather go work a 12 hour shift and make money than stay at home with all the kids!!!!! It is not easier but I;m sure when its my own it will be different.
In other news I did get that job that I posted about the interview last time. I am a LD and Postpartum nurse. They do it all here. I started last week and have been doing tons of orientation classes and other things. Its very different and tons of different cultures here with language barriers that it can be very difficult. One thing I am excited for and very nervous is I assist here with c-sections which I love surgery but can be very stressful as well. I found out I am very lucky to have this job in this area because it is hard to get a job here as nurse let a lone a coveted area like LD. So I;m very grateful for that but as it is only part-time for now I may have to find a second job if I can't get enough hours. Well thats all from our neck of the woods hope everyone is well.
