new job, new house.

For those of you who don't know, Tony, Leah and I recently moved to the great city of Warner Robins, where Tony has begun to work on the airforce base there. We also are in the process of closing of a house and have already moved in.

This is the house. I will post more pictures of it as I actually get stuff squared away on the inside. I am currently not working, and all my friends in statesboro have told me that I must keep up with my blog, so I'm going to try to. No promises, though. Mainly because I'm pretty bad at it, and I can't quite figure out how to do anything with the blog. Also, I'm probably going to apply to some hospitals and try to work once a week or so, which isn't much, but still. Anywho, I will work on posting more, keeping people in touch, and try to figure out how to change the background, layout, etc of the blog. That's it for now.

New Activities

Leah has been doing some fun new activities these past few weeks. Here are pictures of some of them.   

Here she is laughing so hard it looks like she's crying. 

Here is Leah on a swing at the Trinity 25th anniversary picnic.

She also loves popping her collar and playing with jewelry. She's getting a little preppy already.

Here she if playing hide and go seek with mommy. 

A day in Savannah

My mom came into town this past week because it was her spring break. She was able to watch Leah on wednesday night while I was at work, and she kept her thursday morning while I slept. She also helped me reorganize the baby's room and took about three huge bags of too small baby clothes back to Gainesville to put in storage (storage being my parent's laundry room.) On friday my mom, Leah and I spent the day in Savannah. We had a great time walking around downtown, going into shops, and looking for parking. 

After we came home from Savannah the weather was too pretty, so we went and relaxed at Sweetheart circle. 
She can sit up almost perfectly now!
We ate lunch at Spanky's. This is her first time to sit in a "big girl" high chair. It looks like she is having a good time. 
This is my mom and Leah in front of IPC in Savannah. We walked around looking for it for at least 30 minutes, only to find that we literally parked right next to it. Like, you could touch the side of the church while standing next to the car. 
This is me and Leah in front of IPC. My mom took an "artsy" shot. 

So I am actually writing this blog whilst I am at work. How fun! Excuse my language, but this night has been hell until about right now (4:00 am). Thankfully, we are down to about 6 patients in the ER right now, and none of them are very sick. We just ordered some food and are sitting around stuffing our faces. Hopefully I will be able to go through the rest of my shift without seeing another patient, but I highly doubt that this will be the case. Okay, I have to go and do some actual work right now. I bet that tomorow they are going to block this website and I will no longer be able to blog here.

PS... The time on this post says 1:01 am. It is not that time. It is actually 4:00 am. Just thought I'd let yall know.

Sitting, crawling, standing.

This is about the highest that she can hold her head up. She absolutely hates being on her stomach so I can't leave her there for long. 
She loves standing. She can bear her own weight on her legs!
She can sit up about 5 seconds before falling down. 

Although she can not yet sit, crawl, or stand, here are some picture that make it seem like she can. 

new overalls

So yesterday I went over to Marissa's house so she could teach me how to sew. This is something that I have been trying to do for about two years now. I have begun many sewing projects that I have never finished, and I was determined this time to actually complete something. I made these cute overalls, using the exact same design that Marissa used! They fit Leah just right, but I'll probably have to adjust them to make them a little bigger as she grows. 

First day of work

So last night I went back to work after 11 glorious week of maternity leave. My shift started off great; it was a slow night, things were calm and quiet. Then, around 10:30 that night people decided that their sore throats and runny noses that they have had for the past two days were all of a sudden an emergency, and lo and behold, we were slammed for the next 8 hours. What fun! I got home around 6:45, and I managed to sleep until around 9:15, which is when Leah began crying. So we have been up since then, and I have to say that I am almost collapsing with exhaustion. My house is a total wreck, but I just don't care. Of course Leah, who usually takes long naps, has not gone back to sleep yet, so I think I'm just gonna make some coffee and power through the rest of the day.
