Bullet Post

I have varied topics to talk about today so I thought a bullet post was neccesary. Here goes:





  • I've been diligently working on the website. Building a website is harder then I thought it would be. However, It is a lot of fun minus the frustration. As soon as I think it is world worthy I will post it. I have bits and pieces live on the www however only select few have seen it to offer suggestions.


  • The nursery is still coming along. The closet is almost finished. He put in the base boards on Saturday and we'll be hanging the clothing rods in the coming weeks. We need to figure out how to house the modem in the room. We have U.ver.se with a.t.t however the modem and backup battery are housed in the babies room. I'll be visiting IK.EA while we are in Orlando to try to find something.


  • I did find these awesome book shelves on ik.ea's website, so I hope to purchase them when we are there.


  • The babies dresser is also coming along. It is completely sanded and we will start staining it shortly. I picked out drawer pulls but the holes need to be adjusted because modern pulls are not as wide as pulls from back then.


  • We are headed to Orlando for 4 days of relaxation in the coming weeks. We are excited to just chill out and lay by the pool. We may or may not go to a park. We are just going to go with the flow.


  • I start internship in a few weeks. This will be very similar to a full time job from Aug 25th to Dec 2nd. I will be at the school from 730 to 4pm working with 1st graders. I'm so excited to be near the end and so close to graduation and having my own classroom.

Cruising

This year my mom took her yearly cruise. She usually takes my younger brother who has Aspergers. This year though I suggested taking me for my 30th birthday. She liked the idea. So on May 28th my mother and I set sail on the Carnival Dream. Our ports of call were Cozumel, Honduras, Belize, and Costa Maya. We had a great trip. Here are some pictures from our trip.







This picture was from our first formal night on the cruise.









Just a casual picture on the ship.









This was taken in a pretty courtyard in Cozumel.









This by far was the best thing. In Honduras we stopped at this Monkey "farm" and got to handle the monkies. This little baby thought down my shirt was interesting.



This was an adult monkey and it was so cute how they would lay on you like this.
