I'm a happy RN married to a hardworking resident. We have recently become Carolina fans and are adding the color "carolina" blue to our wardrobe and home. I love the east coast and couldn't be happier living in hot, sticky climate. I was raised on a farm/ranch with two wonderful parents and three fun loving older sisters. I went to a one room country school house down the dusty dirt road with grand total of three in my class. Life in the country was rich, meaningful, and simple, just the way I like it. So from country farmgirl to coastal bell, here I am, living life and loving it!

A day with Dad!!

This past week was awful.  I'm just going to get it out there.  Tim worked so hard, Jonah and I were alone all week, and I felt like a single mom (don't know how they do it!)  Tim was on call Sunday and Wednesday which means he goes in at 6 am stays all night and then gets home the next day around 7 and sleeps all day because during his call it was a bad night and he was up all night saving lives:) Then he worked all day Saturday and Sunday.  So therefore he logged 76 hours.  That is almost a full two weeks of work in one.  So because he had not had a day off in 7 days he was off on Monday.  If you are reading this Alli I now have a better appreciation for surgeons wives and understand a little bit more how you have felt the last 5 years!!  The bad weeks come and go, but we are nearing the end, Praise the Lord!  Only 1.5 more years of this:)  Needless to say Monday was a fun day with Dad.  Because of hurricane Sandy rolling through it rained all day so we decided to head to Raleigh to the Museum of Natural History and not only was it fun for Jonah but it was free!  Her are few pictures our day with Dad!!



Jonah was pretty excited about the Mountain Lion.  I think we ended up staying in the main lobby for a half hour because he was just running around pointing to the lion.  I think he might be a hunter like his Papa!!






This is Jonah's favorite place, on daddy's shoulders.  He loves to walk around and be up so high!

Catch me if you can mom.  Jonah is at such a hard age to photograph without him running.  I have learned to snap in the mode where it takes like 10 in a row hoping to get a good one that is not blurry with running away from me!



 We found some fun grass to hide in.  He loves hiding or playing peek-a-boo.  I was able to capture some adorable shots of him being so happy and doing what he loves most, running!!!
