For me I've just been busy plugging away in graduate school counting down the days until the end of the semester (which is when I am done with classes and start my medical externship). There are exactly 4 weeks, 18 school days, and 28 days until the end of the semester. I guess that's what being in school for over 15 months straight does to you. Don't get me wrong I have loved my classes and learning and treating clients every week, but I just can't wait to get out there in the real world and get more hands on experience and then eventually get a career. To be quite honest, I'm pretty sure if you were to ask Ry he would tell you that I am more excited to quit working at Olive Garden as a server than I am to graduate and get an actual career (then again I guess they go hand in hand). I realize I sound pretty negative (I guess that's the senioritis speaking), but I am really grateful that I have a job and that it works so well in my schedule, but after working at the OG for over 4 years... I'm just ready for a change.
On another note we are about to have another big change in our lives. For the past 6 months we've had my brother and sis in law and my cute little nephew living in our basement while their house was being built out in Herriman. It's been kind of fun having them around to watch movies with, cook dinners, and my favorite would be getting to play with my adorable little nephew every day.
How could you ever get sick of playing with this little stud? It's been so much fun to watch him grow over the past 6 months - sit up on his own, get his first 2 teeth, imitate hand clapping, and army crawl (yes he army crawls instead of crawling on his hands and knees, how funny is that?!) This last week he pulled himself up to a standing position for the first time. Although it has been so much fun to play with him everyday and watch him grow and learn new things, it has definitely made Ry and I think twice about when we want to have kids. I've learned that kids are cute, but that they can definitely be handful at times. I think we'll wait at least a few more years before we try to cross the bridge. Being newlyweds and all, having the nephew around was fun, but has sure served as a great form of birth control. :)
The life we have grown accustomed to for the past 6 months will change come this weekend when they move into their new house. It will definitely be weird not having them around all of the time anymore. Especially having my cute little nephew around.
