First of all, I just have to say that I admire all you hospital nurses out there. Granted y'all aren't up till the wee hours of the night writing care plans (for the most part) but these 14 hour days at the hospital are taking some getting used to for me! I now truly understand why nurses only work 3 days a week...because it takes the other 4 to recover!!!
In other news, I finally went to the dentist last week to take care of a tooth that had been bothering me for a while. It was a wisdom tooth but fully exposed so I thought he would just fill the cavity and I would be on my merry little way....two hours later I walked out of the office looking like a chipmunk to who prefers to store nuts on only one side. He yanked those teeth out immediately...and apparently they were causing more of a problem than I realized because other teeth were being effected. Oh, the joy. Needless to say, I have a few more trips to the dentist until all my problems will be resolved and the moral of the story is:DO NOT NEGLECT YOUR GUMS!!!! Preventative care is definitely the answer and now I am finally a believer!!!
Getting ready for the fun
To get ready for Easter, the two older girls went to the Easter Egg Hunt at our church. I didn't know what to expect, but they actually had lots of activities in addition to the hunt like a bounce house, arts & crafts, and cupcake decorating.
Because we are INSANE, Nat and I decided it would be fun for the kids to decorate easter eggs on Saturday to leave for the Easter bunny. It actually wasn't TOO messy. I am just glad they make that dye to come out of clothing and counters more easily than what they used to!
The Easter Bunny came to visit our house on Saturday night! He must have really liked the eggs the kids dyed for him!
Annaleigh's 2nd Birthday is TODAY! I can't believe my baby girl is 2 years old. She has her make-up school program tonight and her party is Saturday so I will share pictures from those soon!

The 12 hour days do take some getting used to, but you'll appreciate them after a while and then if you ever do go back to working 8 hours a day again it will fly by...any 8 hour day is referred to as my "short day." Hang in there...it will all be worth it. Happy Birthday Annaleigh...we're looking forward to seeing you guys at the Arboretum tomorrow!
I did miss you and your updates! Happy Birthday to Annaleigh-bee. Crazy that our first babies aren't babies anymore. Love to you!
Now that I actually read my friends' blogs, I check yours EVERY DAY so I was glad to see an update too.
Happy Birthday, Annaleigh!
I think it's time for Suz to start a blog!
Yuck on the wisdom teeth thing! Hope you're healing up well!
I didn't know it was Annaleigh's birthday yesterday. She did a great job in the program! Thank Russell for doing the prayer for us :)
Hope you are healing quickly..That does not sound fun at all! I do not envy your work schedule. I can only imagine how tiring that could be..especially with a toddler!
