Bling, bling...

Work went really well for our 1st week.  Paisley worked a full-time week with me at the clinic and she did fantastic!  She loves the dogs and cats that come in, and even squeals at them frequently.  The clients love meeting her and she gets lots of compliments and attention all day.  This is her passed out on her play mat in my office.   
Exhausting being this adorable!
 I've been working with our accountant to learn to do all of the bookkeeping which is somewhat terrifying because I don't think I want to spend the rest of my life in prison due to tax evasion if I screw things up.  But I seem to be catching on pretty quickly even though accounting is foreign to me!  My biology degree is not helping so much with this...  :)
Another example of my poor photography skills...


 Today, we pierced Paisley's ears!  My mom, Aaron and I were at the mall and we just decided to go ahead and get it done.  I had already decided that it would be for the best to get them done when she's young and won't remember.  Mine were done when I was 6 months old and it didn't seem to scar me for life or anything.  :)  So, we did it.  And it was SO not bad at all.  She didn't mind them cleaning her ears or marking the dots at all.  What she did mind was me having to restrain her so they could pierce them.  But she got over it really quickly and then enjoyed the rest of her trip to the mall.  And she looks adorable!!!

    So glad the working girls are settling in! I always am amazed seeing babies "passed out" like that, because my little guy refuses to do that. He still requires us to swaddle and rock him before he'll go to sleep, and that's after he has cued us that he is tired with some pretty nasty crying. I venture to say he would NOT be able to go to work like your little one does...lol! And I LOVE the earrings. I still haven't decided when I want to get our little girl's done, but I know I want them done...so cute!

    I haven't gotten the chance to comment lately but I can just say that Paisley is about as cute as they come.
    I just love her little pierced ears. :)

    What a fun place for a kid to hang out during the day - with lots of animals! And she certainly does look adorable.

    I was just thinking about writing a post on "to pierce or not to pierce". I always thought I'd get it done right away, but now I can't bear the thought of puncturing those perfect lobes. She looks adorable though!! Ugh, I'm so torn.

    I love the little pierced ears! If we have a girl, I totally want to pierce her ears while she's really little, too!

Meet Our Little Miracle, Paisley Kate

The post I have been waiting 2 years to write is finally here and I can't really believe it. On Saturday, I woke up at 8:30 a.m. with BAD contractions. By the 2nd one, I knew I was in "real" labor. They were SO different than the braxton-hicks. I got out of bed and decided that I'd take a bath, until water ran down both legs. The pain after that got pretty unbearable immediately and I was having contractions every 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. So, I called Aaron at work to tell him it was "the big day". He decided I was kidding until I nearly leapt through the phone to wring his neck. :) We got to the hospital an hour later and I was dilated to a 4 and having very active contractions. They quickly got me moved to an L&D room. I got my epidural ( AMAZING - we'll talk about this in its own post soon) at a 6 and then my doctor broke my water. (Apparently at home, it had just leaked a pocket of fluid). After he broke my water, labor started picking up ...

I'm Going to Let You in on a Little Secret

My dear blog readers, Those of you who know me well know that I do not keep secrets. It's actually physically impossible for me to keep a secret. So, it's going to really surprise many of you to find out that I've been staying silent about something pretty big. So, without further ado, I'd like to introduce you to the little miracle that came into our lives 13 weeks ago: We wanted to keep it to ourselves for a while to make sure things went okay this time. It's been a very terrifying 13 weeks and we are just now starting to feel that things could actually go well. We feel incredibly blessed to be pregnant with this baby and we are so grateful for every minute. To my friends who are still battling infertility , I'm not even sure where to start. You've been there with me through it all. You've held my hand and given me a shoulder to cry on when times are tough. You always know the right things to say because you've been there before. And you pray and ...

It has been WAY too long since I’ve posted here and I’m eager to rejoin the blogging world!!!  The kids are 5 and 7 and super fun, I’m working at a medspa doing injectables and lasers full time and I’m 14 years in to marriage now.   But here’s where life has now lead me!  I have been driven to do a medical mission trip over the past few weeks and I’m very set on Haiti.  Yes, they are currently having a temper tantrum over the increased fuel prices which they definitely can’t afford, but that country needs help!!!!!   So, I’m here to tell my story of how this all goes!  I’ll need lots of prayers and support in this crazy endeavor!
