I’m still relatively new to blogging so I often forget that people are actually reading (and hopefully… Continue reading Creative Blogger Award
My little sister Amanda graduated from Queen’s University last Wednesday and I couldn’t be more proud of her! She did four years of university at Trent U in Peterborough then did teachers college at Queen’s which is located in Kingston. I wasn’t able to go to her Trent University graduation last year because I was… Continue reading Amanda’s Graduation
My little Nate is growing up far too quick for my liking! He’s sitting up all on his own now and is able to correct himself when he starts falling by simply putting his hand on the floor. He’s rolling over continuously like it’s the easiest thing in the world. And this morning he started… Continue reading Milestones Galore!
The work dreams…or should I say nightmares have begun. I had one or two work related dreams when I first went off on maternity leave. Just simple dreams about nothing in particular. Just work. But last night the work nightmares started. I had two separate nightmares pertaining to my job both of which woke me… Continue reading And so it Begins…

A couple of these aren’t necessarily symptoms but rather feelings I’ve had postpartum but I… Continue reading So You’re Postpartum. Now What Happens?
Being a nurse is no easy task. It’s demanding, overwhelming, exhausting, and heart breaking at times; yet I love what I do. Yes, there are aspects of my job I hate (changing people’s diapers, emptying commodes or an ostomy, working night shift and holidays) but the good definitely outweighs the bad. I like knowing I’m… Continue reading Confessions of a Nurse
A nice home cooked meal Hearing Nate babble on and on and on Watching the cats actually show affection to one another Seeing Nate’s big gummy grin every day Nate’s laugh Drinking a hot cup of coffee/tea Getting into bed with shaved legs and/or freshly washed sheets When Kurt gets home from work earlier than… Continue reading Happiness
Kurt and I are both huge baseball fans. He loves the Boston Red Sox (Boo!!) and since I’m a hometown girl, I support our Toronto Blue Jays. So for Mother’s Day, Kurt decided to me Jays tickets without realizing they’d be playing his favourite team too. Our friend’s aunt works for the Blue Jays organization… Continue reading A Weekend of Blue Jays!
Normally, I’m not one to whine about having a bad day because I know everyone has them, however; today just takes the cake for bad days for me and unfortunately, I’m the sole cause of my bad day. 😦 My morning started out with me waking up with my 5th cold since January. Sucked but… Continue reading Carly and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Rotten Morning.
