Four Day Weekend…Kind of
Happy Labor Day weekend to our faithful blog readers. We are excited about getting to spend a couple of days at home all together with the family since my schedule has become much more palatable since starting my new rotation in toxicology. We have been so blessed to have a lighter schedule this month so that I could have some time to decompress after an intense first two months of residency and so that I could have a few weeks to study before I take take the last of of my board certification exams (the Step III which is a two day exam that I have in about three weeks).
Baby News and Celebrations
Sorry about the lack of updates over the last couple of weeks. Even though trauma surgery is done and the schedule in emergency medicine for the last three weeks has been better it has still been a lot of hours away from home. Melissa and the kids returned safely from their trip to Nebraska along with a new kitten they acquired from the county fair while they were visiting family in Nebraska. Our new kitten is about 7 weeks old and right now we are deciding on a name for her between Cuddles and Roses...I think Karuna gets the final word on this since she and the kitten are glued together for most of the day. Yesterday we also added a new beta fish to the family and so we now have three new pets in the home with the puppy, the kitten, and the fish! Luke has been thrilled to have so many animals around and we get to hear his frequent screams of delight over something else one of our pets is doing throughout the day which definitely brings a smile to our faces.
