Spring Break

As I was uploading these photos I started to think this post is much longer than Spring Break was. Tevs.


We clearly did not waste any time switching gears to spring break mode. As soon as hubby got off work we celebrated with some of our favorite grown up drinks. 


For the weekend we drove out to HB to spend time with the sibs, baby S, and the parents. 


Me and Carolyn have a lot of fun at Charming Charlies. I am pretty disappointed at myself for not buying this hat. Its even more fabulous in person. And by fabulous I obviously mean larger. 


Andrew likes to push the stroller/hold the diaper bag whenever he can, I am really glad too because he's kind of adorable when he does it. 


Is there anything sweeter?!??!? 


We are the luckiest auntie and uncle. 


For dinner we went to Slaters 50/50 -amazing! I have been craving vampire dip ever since. We had a little bit of a wait so we decided to take camera pictures. Its the cutest how she is so enthralled with her reflection. 


Love x3!


Breakfast spot thanks to Carolyn. So yum! 


Beach Sun. Love it. Miss it. 


Back home I made sure to tune in to all Giada's newest episodes. 


...and study.


Finally took the leap to bleach my hair...! 


Super in love with the final product! My hairstylist is amazeballs. 


Two new home additions: owly from target garden center and candle from bed bath and body works. In my down time I ponder the idea of bringing color into our home. Its incredibly difficult. Every time I buy something its in some shade of white. Hmph.


Except flowers. Success. 


Final day of spring break :(


Every pool day needs a grown up drink. 


...aaaand we're back. Spent my first day back in the pediatric unit! It was great! We actually spent 2 days in a row, super lucky since last time it was only 1 day. My dream job is a nurse anesthetist but in choosing a fall back I have contemplated pedes. This was before I even went to the pediatric unit and probably motivated by my sweet little niece. But after spending a day there a couple weeks ago I was pretty nervous if it was a good suit for me. Lets just say its a little disheartening when the cutest little boy ever looks at you like your a serial killer when you try to take his temperature. However, yesterday after my second pedes visit, my instructor gave me my mid term evaluation and said I have received a ton of compliments by the staff and after watching me she thinks I found my spot(!). To really appreciate this you would have to meet my instructor. She definitely doesn't say things like that, or smile or laugh really, unless its at her own joke. It was just a small  gesture by her but it always feels great to get a little confirmation on your own inclination. With that said, Andrew says he wants to pursue being a nurse anesthetist too! This coming from the boy he wanted to be nurse practitioner for pediatric oncology. Funny how we are switching positions. I for one think he would be great at either one :). Oh, he gets to spend this week in the OR! Maybe that will give him more insight into the anesthesia role. Super excited for him. for us. for LIFE! :) 

Hope you all had a great spring break/easter!!
