Heart Tattoo
As you can see by the pics below, I got a tattoo of 3 little hearts on the inside of my left wrist. Oh, how I love them. They represent Jay, Parker, and Seth. And, I've wanted them for so long and I'm so proud that I finally went and got them done! Jay was pretty skeptical of a lot of things. He was worried about the location, he was worried about the tattoo artist, and he was worried that I would regret them. They are three different colors- red, pink, and yellow. They are in the perfect spot-they can easily be covered with a long sleeved shirt, a thick watch band or KatVonD's tattoo makeup. But, who would want to cover them? They are simple, girlie, fun, artistic, and meaningful.
tatt
So, I'm in love with the star tattoo in the photo below---so cute, dainty, and secret :) Can be easily hidden, yet punches a statement. I'm having a hard time deciding where exactly I want my tattoo. I've pretty much decided on a star or 3 total stars. (Last week it was a heart or 3 hearts...lol) I also wanted everyone to know that I bought a pair of patent leather, zebra danskos and OH how I cannot wait to get them in the mail! I think I'll post a pic after I finish this blog post so you can see how adorable they are. Then, when I get them in the mail, I'll don some cute socks and post a pic of my cute feet in them :) Stay warm, be well. ~Kimmie
Getting old
Okay, now I know that there are those of you who will sigh at me saying this..but well...it's true. I looked in the mirror tonight at work and realized. I'm old. Yep. I said it. It was a glance out of the corner of my eye that really did me in. I was standing at the coffee machine, fumbling for a lid- and there's a mirror to the side so,out of reflex...I just looked. In all honesty, I wanted to see my side view- since I'm 7 weeks postpartum now. And, instead of looking at my abdomen..I looked at the side of my head and realized that I'm old. I'm old. 2 kids, married, a dog, a nurse for 4 years. Now, I know some readers will gasp and call me ridiculous. But, isn't there this point in your late 20s that you realize that people are looking at you differently than they did a few years ago? It's tough. I guess that's why most people turn to shoes. I'm bidding on a pair right now on ebay. They're zebra print danskos. (Don't go and bid against m...
Happy Holidays :0)
The holidays are fast approaching now--what an exciting time for my new little family! I was pretty bummed to hear that I have to work Thanksgiving and New Year's as my holidays. However, once I looked at the schedule noticed that I work Thanksgiving night and the night after as well as New Year's Eve. So, I'm glad I'll be able to celebrate Thanksgiving all day (and fatten up lol) before going into work. Also, I'm glad that even though I work on such a fun party night, I'm off New Year's Day and can celebrate the new year coming in with those closest to me. I have Christmas Eve and Day off (lucky lady) but have to work the night after. *who cares?! I went to wal-mart the other night for some retail therapy after Parker was in bed and Seth was fat and happy after a feed. I couldn't believe all the fun Christmas stuff already out! The sparkly green and blue ornaments were so cute and I couldn't believe their $1 ornaments! Tinsel and wreath picks caught...
Walking around the lake
Please see the picture of Jay with his arms spread wide at the lake. We were walking around the lake with both kids *bless our hearts* and the ducks started taking interest in us. For some reason, they thought we had bread. Not only did we not have any bread (like that double negative?) ...we had Jay. Mister funnyman. Will Ferrell's long lost brother. Needless to say, when the ugliest duck on the entire lack comes off the shoreline making a beeline for the stroller, Jay goes into action. The duck raised up, and spread it's wings, did a funky dance, started moving it's neck back and forth and quacking SO loud. That's when Jay spread his wings...(see pic below) crossed his legs, and made odd noises. And...the ugly duck turned it's black butt around, shook it's tail feathers, and went back in the water. Oh, I was just peeing in my pants it was so funny. Parker didn't know what to think and Seth just sat, wide-eyed in the stroller praying for parents not to star...
busy day
Hmmm....let's see. Shall we talk about my busy day? Woke up at 7- fed Seth while Jay got up to hang out with Parker Jay. Time Warner Cable came to the house around 715....yawn, no lie. Haverty's furniture delivered cushions for our couch @ 1030. Seth was ready to feed again at 1130. Showered, loved on Parker, put Parker down for a nap. Lunch. Facebook. Parker went to grandma's for the weekend. 6 week pp checkup with my favorite OB doctor :) Wendy's for a frosty, pumped as soon as we got home, scrubs on, brushed teeth, packed a lunch...kissed Sethie and Jay...and on the way to UNC. ...where I sit right now. YAWN..for another 5.5 hours! Okay, now let me explain the postpartum checkup. Because, I mean, I know that's what you want to know about :) Weight checked, vital signs checked. Disgruntled over weight...but working on it!! We discussed the copper IUD vs. Mirena IUD with our OB. After much thought, and since my cycles aren't very regular...our doctor recomm...
