just checkin' in

whew - it's been a minute since i blogged. life as usual is crazy...

we took a little trip out to oregon to visit the fam. it was lovely as always! nuggie was sick most of the time and teething, but we had grammy and auntie there to help. nuggie also has really taken a liking to her sweet uncle :-) they shooed bub and i off for a date night at this amazing place with a wonderful view of the city. it was glorious! we had a yummy dinner and drinks and talked. a much needed night with my hubby. another day mom, sis and i went out shopping and they totally spoiled me! i've been wearing some pretty scuzzy duds since i'm a chunky monkey now and i don't fit in to any of my old clothes. but that's silly. i am who i am and this old body of mine is a bit heavier, but it's because of our sweet nuggie! i wouldn't trade a few jean sizes for that sweet baby angel of ours... so why do i beat myself up about being heavier all the time? so momma and sis got me a few new clothes that fit and oh what a difference it makes! i'll always be hoping to lose the weight and i'm gonna keep working on it as i can, but a pair of pants that really fit can make the world a better place!

nuggie is walking now! sorta! she takes a few wonky steps back and forth around the living room. it's amazing!!! and she's getting her top two teeth now. my sweet baby is growing up too fast!

school is going ok. we're getting close to winding down for the semester. i'm hanging in there. clinicals are going great and it looks like i will pass and go on to the next semester - ole!

it's november! i want to do some fun fallish crafts - any ideas??? maybe a new wreath? maybe i'll plant some mums?? i LOVE this time of year!!
