Perfect little lives.

We are BUSY!!!  

     Today I saw Jordan for a total of 30 minutes.  Life has just been so busy, yet here I am making time to blog.  Mostly I am tired of thinking about Nursing right now.  This upcoming Friday will mark my 6th clinical day in 14 days.  

6 am the day after our 12 our shift.

I see these people above more then I have seen my husband the last 2 weeks.  I am excited for me to be done with clinicals and for Jordan to be done with the Musical so I can see him again.  We are both happy, we just miss each other.  Clinicals were amazing.  I have loved this group of clinicals then I have any other time.  I loved OB.  I loved working with Moms and cute little babies.  I was always pretty lucky to get great Nurses to work with as well.  I learned so much from all those amazing ladies.  I loved getting to see a baby be born, I loved seeing moms trying to make struggling babies happy, and I also loved being able to help both out a little bit.  Since obviously I have never had a baby before and it has been a long time since I had to change Darius's Diaper or even be with a tiny baby, at least 3 years since that is how old Gavin is now, almost 4.  I was the one that was learning a lot.  I had no idea how to teach a mom to be a mom.  It is definitely something special to see a mom bond with her baby.  I was lucky and got to see all mom's who loved and wanted their baby.  Not all were as fortunate.  The most exciting of it all was knowing that the day I was seeing a baby be born my Aunt and Uncle were having a baby of their own.  Although they were in a different hospital (I tried to make them come to me but the Doctor wouldn't have it)  little Garrin Dirk Aceves was born and Sept. 15.

 Most of my family got to go to Snowflake this last weekend to meet him, But of course I couldn't go.  I can't wait till I finally get to meet that cute little boy.  I just hope he stays little for a while longer so I can see him all cute and small.  I miss everyone so much.  And I hope we get to see them soon, if not sooner at least for Thanksgiving :D

     All of this baby stuff just makes me want one that much more.  It also scares me to Death to have a child.  Learning about all of this stuff makes me realize just how miraculous it is that there are so many Healthy Living babies here in the world being born everyday.  So many things can go wrong leading to not getting pregnant in the first place, having a miscarriage, having a baby with deformities, or having a baby die.  So many babies are just so cute and so little and so PERFECT!!!  Heavenly Father is amazing and blesses so many people with perfect little children.

     

PS.. I still miss Jordan.
