Eli gave me his first social smile this morning. Big old grin while looking right in my eyes as I talked to him. Definitely *not* gas.
He has also been cooing, but that activity is reserved for only one person- big sister.

Count ‘em… 42 more hours at work before my maternity leave begins. That’s less time than I used to be away from home in the course of a week, back when I was working FT at City Hospital.

And yes, I’m the type of person who likes to take pictures of tomatoes. In fact, when I get back into painting, tomatoes are the first thing I’m gonna paint.

Eeps. I was looking forward to starting my orientation at the hospital next week, for the most part. Then reality hit me. I laid awake the other night, fretting over the fact that I am a nurse now. Yikes. I have a nursing degree. In a month, I will be an official RN. Yikes. This [...]
