Back to Work

I have re-entered the work environment this has made me think about the things I really enjoy about working and then the things I don’t enjoy so much about it. Here is my list.

Missed:
Going to lunch without having to cart around a car seat
Having adult interaction
Going to Campus Corner across the street for my afternoon diet Coke fix
Listening to CNN on XM radio in the morning

Didn’t Miss
Listening to random cell phone conversations of strangers peeing in the stall next to me
Contact with germs (yes, I got sick my second day back to work)
Getting up early in the morning
Looking at skinny girls with fake boobs

That’s all for now.

Lauren's First Visit to Utah

I took advantage of my last week of maternity leave and went to visit Carrie, my sister up in Utah. So Lauren and I packed our bags and headed to the north. Here are a few pictures from our adventures.

Teagan and Lauren hanging out together on the couch.

Tristyn loved playing with the babies, she so badly wanted to hold Lauren. Here they are together, Tristyn has such a sweet little face.

Carrie and I found Teagan and Lauren like this on the floor, we figured they were both trying to spell their last name. They were off to a good start beginning with a "T".

All three of them hanging out on the floor.

Saturday Night Movie

Last night Daniel and I decided to watch 'Marley and Me'...big mistake. I thought it was going to an evening of laughter watching a jovial movie about a dog wrecking havoc on his owner's life. I completely disregarded my own rule of not watching movies with dogs in them as they always turn out the same in the end...the dog dies. This is one of the main reasons why I have still yet to see 'I am Legend'. After crying like a baby I turn to Dan and ask him if he liked the movie he responded, "I only want to watch movies where people die not dogs or babies". Well said.

After the movie I had to love and kiss Mattie more than usual. She is the sweetest and best dog I have ever met. So this is to my sweet baby Roux, the namesake of this blog.
