Shopping Monday

+Hey there everyone! I have been busy with school again. I should actually be putting together a care plan right now! LOL! I've got 1/2 of it done... so I decided to take a break! I have been shopping a little bit on-line lately. These are a few things that I have bought:



1.Kindle (Just got it and LOVE it!)

2. Kindle cover from etsy (picture from etsy website b/c I haven't gotten it yet)
Seller: dahliainbloom






3. I have been searching for the perfect clutch! I found it on... ETSY! I just ADORE Etsy!
Seller: whatthefunk

4. I found these super-cute "skater shoes" socks for my sweet best friend's little boy. He will be here soon! YAY! Found these on EBAY!
Heres's something that I haven't bought yet but will be soon! I ABSOLUTELY adore these little cuties! They are rubber cowboy boots!!! They would definitely come in handy with all of this rain and sleet we have had lately! These are also found on EBay! Now if I could only decide which pair... hmmmm..... Maybe I'll just get all 3!





Until next time, I hope y'all have a blessed week! Happy Monday!

Random stuff....

Well it's definitely been awhile since I last blogged! Between Christmas and starting back to school, I HAVE BEEN CRAZY BUSY!! I hope that all of you had a wonderful Christmas! Ours was low-key but absolutely wonderful! Because Seth works so much, we have to enjoy each other's company when we can! :-)
I just started back to nursing school. It was hard to go back after having a MONTH off! But I was definitely glad to get back into a routine. And best of all---- I have only 11 months left! WOOHOO! I'm currently in my 3rd level of clinicals... that means I have just ONE level left!! This level is all about OB and I couldn't be more excited! I have always known that I wanted to work in women's health. This past week in clinicals has completely comfirmed that decision! I worked in the nursery last week and LOVED every minute of it! I am so excited and feel very blessed to know that God has put me on this wonderful journey to accomplish such a great goal! Best of all, through God's help I can help people on a daily basis. I'm very excited and feel very honored/blessed to be chosen to do such wonderful things in the world!

Well... now that I'm back in school full-time I have to have a few guilty pleasures to help me get through the week! LOL! One of these guilty pleasures includes blog-stalking! I have so many blogs that I look at very often that I can't even list them all! I recently came across this wonderful blog through Amanda @ Bellies, babies & Football (http://craigandamandanall.blogspot.com/). I AM IN LOVE!!!! It's called "Thrifty Decor Chick" (http://www.thriftydecorchick.blogspot.com/). It's just wonderful! I can't get enough of it! Please go check it out... I promise you won't regret it!
Hope all of you have a wonderful week! Until next time....

Shopping Monday

Good morning y'all! It's been awhile since I last blogged! Nursing school, Les Amies, nannying, and LIFE has gotten me tied up lately! I've been SUPER busy--- but won't trade a moment of it!

Hope everyone has a GREAT week! :0)
