So I feel like posting...

So, I really should be doing other stuff like cleaning, showering, etc., but unfortunately I am still trying to talk myself into it. After having a delightful evening out at Thai Kitchen without Vanessa (don't get me wrong, but Hallelujah!), it felt like the beginning of the weekend, which I am so ready for. But alas, it is only Thursday and I have plenty of catching up to do.

Vanessa was sick this last weekend with vomiting, diarrhea, and a fever. All the fun stuff. Needless to say she wasn't herself and she didn't feel like doing much...nor did we. So we watched a lot of "Cars" and "Nemo" with a little bit of "Kitties" (Aristocats) and "Dumbo" to mix things up. If anyone wants those movies recited, I am sure we could spit it out, verbatim! After the worst of the sickness was over, we were left with the residual--Vanessa's alter ego. We always knew we had a sweet, happy, easy-going child, and have always been very grateful for that, but WOW! After seeing her fussy, ornery, and just plain difficult (it didn't help that our Daddy's girl had to stay with boring, pregnant Mommy), I am so glad to have our little angel back! Still, you can't blame her...being that sick has to be absolute misery. I am just so relieved that she is well again, and that we get to see that cute smile we love so much.

Here's a couple of pictures for you from our week (don't worry, we didn't photograph the puke):


My lifesaver and my love...I think that might just be the definition of "Husband!" He took her during the nights so I could get sleep, as well as being my teammate during the day. My Hero!

Yes, those are tights on her head...her idea!

More Interviews

We were saddened to find out that I wasn't accepted to Kansas State (not really), but I did receive invitations to interviews at BYU, University of Nebraska, and Loma Linda University. Even though this was all good news, it presented somewhat of a dilema. I have already purchased tickets to my interviews at the University of Kentucky and Virginia Tech (March 1st and 2nd). Come to find out, BYU and University of Nebraska are also holding their interviews on March 2nd. Fortunately, U of Nebraska allows you to do a phone interview, but BYU is a little less flexible. I called and got my name a list to possibly reschedule for March 5th with them. And last of all, Loma Linda's interview will be on March 9th. I'm excited to travel a bit and get to see all these different schools. We'll keep you posted on how everything goes and where we end up.

Another interview

So, I just wanted to let everyone know that I was invited to another interview at the Univeristy of Kentucky. I had a dream last night that I didn't get into BYU because I didn't draw any cartoons on my application. Hope that's not true. Even though both interview so far are across the country, we are excited about checking these schools out. We'll keep you posted about any other interviews.
