Well, while I should be working on a Care Plan Summary before my "Spring Break" comes to a screeching halt, I think I'll take a break to update everyone on the happenings around the Moore residence. Well like I've mentioned, probably a dozen times by now, we are buying a house... We were SUPPOSED to be closing tomorrow, but, thanks to miscommunication and technology, we won't be closing until the 16th of April... much to our dismay. That's how we started my Spring Break...with that irritating little tidbit of information. But, I guess it's all in a plan, and it'll all work out. I'm really eager to post pictures of our new home, but I think that may be weird until we actually have the keys (the current owners may find that a little creepy!) I've spent most of my week talking to our lending agent and trying to get every last piece of paper in place for her. I've also spent lots of time simplifying our current residence and trying to get rid of things that are not absolutely necessary to keep and or move. Needless to say Spring Break as a housewife isn't much of a break at all it seems.
Other than all of that excitement we had another appointment this week to check on Baby J. At 22 weeks everything seems to be right on schedule. His heart rate was at a steady 152 bpm and he has been super active these last few days. His movements are getting stronger and more distinguishable! It's such an amazing feeling! I'm so ready for Jay to be able to feel him so that he can share in some of the excitement. His room is finally coming together, even though currently, the majority of his belongings are sitting in the dining room of our tiny one bedroom apartment. (We've decided to go with a fishing theme, not sure if I've already said that or not but with the number of times i've been asked I'm just going to volunteer that now.) He now has a changing table, and the most adorable round crib I could have imagined. We are getting ready to paint and redo the furniture so that it all matches, which is going to be an exciting project in itself. (If you know me I love to craft!)
Speaking of excitement, as March slowly gets close to April there is lots to be celebrating in the Moore Family. March 31, Jay's cousin Wendell and his fiancé Lacey will tie the knot at their ranch. We are so excited to celebrate such a fun and exciting day with them! I've loved both of them since I met them for the first time at Thanksgiving almost 2 years ago. Soon after that, April 4, little Miss Landry will be here, she's our new niece! Marlayna and Josh are going to have a full house with 3 of the most precious nieces Jay and I could have ever imagined. I'm pretty sure that's one of the sweetest gifts the "easter bunny" could bring this year! With all of the excitement following the next month, I'm really getting eager to see this semester come to a swift close. Blame it on pregnancy, or burnout, or just a lack of interest to this semester, but I am EXHAUSTED and thoroughly ready to be done with what I believe will be the most excruciating semester of nursing school yet. Although, with a baby, and two clinical classes next semester this may be a premature accusation to make. Needless to say, I am so ready for summer! Ready to have time to spend with our families and watch them grow! I'm ready to have time to work on our house, and our garden we plan to grow. I'm just ready to have something other than medications, policies, and patho whirling around in my head. Maybe being a patient in the hospital this summer will be just what I need.... as long as they don't keep Jax and I too long of course!
Until Next Time,
Peace, Love, and Calendars!
