Friday the 13th put my sister-in-law Katie, into labor to deliver my 7 lb 3 oz niece-Elizabeth (I haven't heard if they decided on Reese or Rochelle) Caldwell. She's so beautiful and sweet just like babies are. Lizzie is the first of three nieces and or nephew to come into the Caldwell clan this year. Shona and Jason in Canada are expecting a girl next month and Mike and Leah are due at the end of August. I have a feeling my kids will have no cousins their age by the time I get around to having some but at least I'll have babysitters:). I never posted a picture of my nephew Wyatt, who was born in August-so here's the two newest victims of my love and affection.
I'd say I had a great Valentines day since I got to meet my niece and then have a lovely night with Jake. After the hospital, we went and saw New In Town with Rene Zelwigger-It's way cute! Then Jake and I went hot tubing at his ritzy gym and he made me a candle lite dinner. He also got me roses, a box of chocolates and a shirt and sweater from American Eagle. I got him a miniature replica toy of his Motorcycle (2006 Honda CRF 450), a DC shirt and cologne.
I have to admit that I don't think my life can get too much better-maybe if I was in my own house but then again I probably wouldn't be able to afford to play so much...Not only am I going on my Mexican cruise, but I'm planning on going back to Ecuador late April and up to Canada in the end of March. This is the first time in my life I've have the resources and time to go places and since I get 5 weeks of PTO a year-I'm using it! Charity Anywhere asked me to come back to teach respiratory procedures like resuscitation, nebulizers etc. There's also a four day expedition to the city of Otavalo to provide medical and dental work. I'm heading up to Calgary when my niece is born to see her and my family with my mom.
Anyway, it's an exciting time of life for me right now. I feel like one of my greatest blessings is my Job at Primary's. I work three 12 hour shifts a week and enjoy having the rest of my time to pursue other interests and hobbies. I like that everyday I work provides a new challenge. My field is constantly changing and there is so much to learn that I don't think I'll ever get bored with it. It's nice to be out of school and to focus on work and then have the rest of my time to enjoy life instead of doing homework. Anyway, that's that-thanks for reading.
