Valentine's Day 2012

Hello!

Its so hard to find the time to blog. Seems we are ALWAYS busy.. Jess works almost everyday. Between her internship, working bball games for her scholarship, and her actual paying job... she never has a day off. But luckily I convinced her to takes Sundays off from now on. She deserves one day to herself. And to spend time with me ;)

We are having a low-key Valentine's Day this year. We done big before and we just dont have the time for it this year. I kinda like just being home with her. We exchanged cards, and she got me roses (she knows the way to my heart!) She also surprised me and had lunch with me between my classes.. love that. When I got home from class, she had dinner almost ready... Steak, baked potatoes, and AMAZING green beans. Omg so good. She even cleaned the kitchen & cleaned off the table! If you have been reading for a while, (or know us in real life) you know this is our one & only issue! Haha.

I had planned to start making her a collage on canvas similar to this..

But with our names, nicknames, K & M, anniversary date etc.

I made the collage but thought we could finish it together!

Valentines Day Flashback:

2009: I dont have a post for Vday 2009 because I didnt start blogging till May 2009! But I surprised her in SC for her bball game. She was super excited... but kinda figured I would do that. But she had no idea I had decorated her room before I left and when she returned home this is what she found....

 

2010: Check out this post! To see what we did!

2011: Read this post to find out how that year went...

Every year no matter what we do... I love it. Whether its a big surprise trip or a low key night at home. We are blessed to have found true love.. and in the end thats all that matters!

Baby..

I love you more and more everyday.

You are my rock & without you, I never would have made it to nursing school.

I cant wait to see whats in store for our future and what next year's Valentine's Day holds.

Love Always,

Your Babygirl

So since I started nursing school 4 weeks ago (omg cant believe its been a month!), we have developed a nice little routine.

Monday- Lab 8-430
Tuesday- Lecture 9-4
Wednesday & Thursday- recuperate from the stress of lab/class & study
Friday- Work 1-7
Saturday & Sunday- rest and study to prepare for lab/class the next week.

Yes I need THAT MUCH time to rest & study. Its taking a toll on my nerves. I cant relax mentally bc Im always worrying about whats due or what I need to do or what I have done. Geez. That part sucks. But what is great is learning how to do what I have always wanted to do.

I have an online test due by midnight tomorrow, a dosage calculation test on Monday, and a lecture exam on Tuesday. Ahhhh... Que the panic attack, lack of sleep, and constant worry now. I feel pretty good about the calc test, semi ok with the lecture test.. but I have no clue about the online test. Guess its a good thing its online.

In other news... I love my dogs. They make the bad days seem better just because all they care about is that I gives them plenty of snuggles and of course provide yummy treats. Cute right?!

Well.. lemme tell how about today... I took the babies out for a walk and thought that sense it was pretty I would take them on a long walk. We got half way to the Pet Station when out of NO WHERE K & M start raising hell and yanking their leashes and flipping around all crazy. They were viciously trying to attack a husky. WTF? My sweet little angels turn into mean devils when they see another dog. Ugh... drives me nuts because they tangle me up in their leashes (because of course they have retractable leashes because I want to have them to have their own space). This man came out on his porch because he thought their was a real dog fight and that someone needed help. He just laughed when he saw my teeny tiny babies ready to attack a 100 lb husky. I had to explain that of course K & M have no idea that they are 5-10 lbs.. because they think they are 100 lb pit bulls! Mango truly believes he is a pit bull because the lady we got him from had 6 pit bulls that were inside dogs! But thats another story for another day :)

They only look sweet and innocent! :)

*The reason there are more pictures of Mango is because Kiwi hides when she sleeps.. she burrows.
