I PASSED!!!

I took my certification exam today and passed!!! I am officially a Women's Health CNP (certified nurse practitioner). I will be working at the Center for Women's Healthcare at Miami Valley Hospital once I get all my paperwork turned in. For more info on nurse practitioners- check out the link below. I am so happy and relieved that it is over :)!

CHECK IT OUT

ELISE'S BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENT IS ON THE "NEW DESIGNS" DISPLAY FOR THE COMPANY THAT DID THEM. CHECK IT OUT AT http://peapodannouncement.blogspot.com/. IT IS THE SECOND ONE FROM THE BOTTOM UNDER "FINALLY UPDATING BLOG WITH NEW DESIGNS (POST MAY 20TH).
BY THE WAY, WE WERE VERY PLEASED WITH THIS COMPANY- THEY DID A GREAT JOB. YOU JUST EMAIL THE PICTURES AND DETAILS ON WHAT YOU LIKE AND SHE DESIGNS EACH ANNOUNCEMENT INDIVIDUALLY AND THEN YOU APPROVE IT OR TELL HER WHAT CHANGES YOU WANT. IF YOU USE THEM, MENTION MY NAME AS A REFERRAL.

THREE MONTHS OLD!

 
LOOK HOW MUCH SHE HAS CHANGED! THE OUTFIT ACTUALLY FITS HER NOW. SHE WAS 10LB 2OZ AND 23 IN LONG AT HER DR. APPT. SHE IS PLAYING MORE, LAUGHING, AND GETTING TO BE A LITTLE WIGGLE WORM. TOO CUTE! 

BUMBO FUN

ELISE LOVES HER BUMBO SEAT- IT IS ONE OF OUR FAVORITE BABY SHOWER GIFTS! ALL YOU PREGOS NEED TO MAKE SURE YOU GET ONE FOR YOUR BABIES!!! 

SHOTS

 
ELISE GOT HER IMMUNIZATIONS ON JULY 3RD. SHE DID REALLY WELL WITH THEM. SHE FOUND HER THUMB THAT NIGHT AND CUDDLED WITH DADDY. THE NEXT DAY WE WENT TO GRANDMA H.'S TO CELEBRATE FOURTH OF JULY AND SHE WAS A LITTLE FIRECRACKER AS USUAL:)
