Austin had his 6 month appointment this morning with the pedi. :) We LOVE her! So glad I found a doc that I feel comfortable with. Recommend her to anyone who lives in Fort Wayne. :) Stats are to the right but I'll list them in this post too. Weight: 17lbs 7oz (50th%); Length: 24.5in (less than 5th%); Head circumference: 17.25in (50th%). I had the nurse measure his length twice since I could not believe that was all the more he had grown and is now basically falling off the growth chart! His doc wasnt concerned she said its one of 2 things: he either is about to enter the 6 month growth spurt or he is going to be on the shorter side like me. He's always been in the 5th% for length so its all still within his normal range.
Developmentally he is doing fantastic she said! He goes from sitting to standing (while holding her hands) with minimal head lag which is actually a 9 month skill so we are impressed. :)
He has one stubborn eczema spot that is not clearing well on it's own (did I ever mention he has eczema?..oops--I don't think I ever have since we weren't completely sure). So we are going back to using Aveeno baby soap & lotion and will be trying hydrocortisone for 2 weeks. We had been using Johnson & Johnson since we had gotten some from shopping before he was born so we were using that up ...guess that was a bad idea! I've read that it can be more irrtating since it's fragranced so back to Aveeno we go. Fine by me...I love Aveeno much more! :)
He also is going to be visiting the opthalmologist to get his eyes checked and measured. You may have noticed that his right eye will occasionally turn inwards in some of the pics of him on facebook. His doc just wants to make sure it isn't going to turn into a lazy eye. It always looks fine at his appts and usually we don't notice him doing it at home but we are just going to stay on top of it since vision problems run in my family.
No change in his hemaginoma so we will just continue to keep an eye on it. No teeth yet either which is perfectly fine. We also got the ok to start solids twice a day and to practice more with the sippy cup. :) He will remain on his Zantac twice a day for now ...she said we could trial him off the bedtime dose within the next month or two if we thought he was ready.
I think that's it ..sorry so long & detailed!!

Austin is 6 months old today!! Crazy!! He has changed and grown so much these past 6 months. No official stats yet...he has his 6 month appt on Monday morning. He is sleeping from 9pm-7ish am now with catnaps throughout the day. Sometimes he will take a nap that lasts longer than 30 minutes but usually he powernaps!
He's tried all the stage 1 fruits & veggies...he gets oatmeal and a jar of food each evening around 6pm. The stage 1 jars are starting to seem like not enough food! We will likely get the go ahead to move to twice a day and stage 2 at his pedi appt. :)
Austin started rolling from back to belly yesterday. He sits up very well but falls over when he gets tired so we don't leave him alone when hes sitting. He is learning to drink from a sippy cup...still would rather chew on it right now. I am still breastfeeding...yay!!..made it to my first goal! :) He eats about every 2.5-3.5 hours during the day. Loves to be outside and go on walks in the stroller. Recently started giving the "open mouth baby kisses" to mommy & daddy. He also pulls my hair and then acts disgusted when he gets it in his mouth...haha!
Think thats about it on new stuff. :)

Had a phone interview today for a prn position at Ball Memorial in the Mother/baby unit. It was just with HR so the questions were kind of generic. She said she will forward her notes to the nurse manager. Tried to call Parkview North again (Jess suggested I try again)...it just kept ringing..no one picked up. I have to call the NICU and ask for the nurse manager so its almost like the operator connected me to the wrong place! Got busy and forgot to try again later in the day. I can only be on the phone when Austin is sleeping so that they don't hear him!
So much stuff to do for summer classes. A lot of it is not very time consuming but there is certainly a lot to learn! Luckily there are ZERO papers to write!! Yay for that! Most of it is enjoyable to read about since it all pertains to the neonatal population. :)
Austin has been such a good boy! :) He is verrrry chatty! Posted new pics on facebook tonight. Looking forward to seeing my cousin Amy's twin boys this coming Sunday at her parents house since they are in town for the week/weekend. Zeke & Eli are 6 days older than Austin but they were born 6 weeks early. It'll be cute to see the 3 of them together. Haven't seen them since January 2nd. Hopefully Austin does well on the roadtrip!
Doing homework after Austin goes to bed is working out well so far. It's time for bed though...he wakes up at pretty much the same time every day so I have my own personal alarm clock ..lol!

Happy (belated) June!
No new news on Parkview ...or anywhere else for that matter.
Classes are going well. Gets hard to do school stuff during the day with Austin since he still naps on me most of the time and isn't a fan of entertaining himself for long! Working on doing stuff after he goes to bed. Still need to set up a few days to go to Dupont to work on some class stuff if I don't get a NICU job soon.
Austin is doing well! :) No teeth yet but he certainly has his fussy, teething days. He can mostly sit up on his own now with very little help ..each day he can sit up for a tad longer than the day before. He has tried all of the stage 1 fruits & veggies now. Loves dinnertime for the most part! :) Sleeping from 9ish pm to 6:30-7:30am. Yay! He goes back to the doctor on the 20th for his 6mt appt.

After all this time (Feb. to now)...the Dupont job has fallen through and I'm not getting it.
She said she's very upset about it and is not sure why they ended up saying no. I guess
Lutheran didn't have anything bad to say about me so who knows. I personally think a nurse manager should be able to decide who she wants to hire! Heck she is the one managing the nurse!!
She did say I should be able to come in and do my assessment assignments on the infants (since I'd be going through the NNP & Neo's) but we'll see if I can get a job elsewhere first.
So now we are praying super hard about the Parkview & Parkview North NICU jobs. There are 3 available at Pk Main and I think 2 or 3 available at Pk North. I've spoke to the nurse recruiters at both hospitals and have a letter of recommendation from my good friend Jessica who works at Pk North.
God has a plan...just hard to wait.

Sorry for the lack of blogging. Just been busy/same old, same old.
Classes started Monday and are going well so far. I have neonatal/newborn assessment and Procedures in Neonatolgy. Yay! :) Went to Indy Wednesday for a 6 hour class. Blah..went by fast but its hard to be away from Austin for so long with the boring drive added in too! Have to go again next week on Tues and Thurs then again on June 6th. She wanted to get in all our lecture stuff for assessments early on so that we can spend the rest of the summer doing our assessments on infants..10 in total on different (gestational) age ranges. Then for the other class we have a bunch of online stuff to do and will meet in early August to do hands on procedures in a skills learning lab. (not on real babies that day though..that'll come in the fall!)
On the job front...getting so ridiculous. Never realized how much a persons patience could be tested! The dupont nurse manager had a mtg on Monday to discuss/confirm hiring me with her manager and was supposed to call me. Well she still hasnt. Talked to my dupont nicu nurse friend and I guess the nurse manager gave her notice (to quit) this week. Great! :( Well she told my friend that she is adamant on hiring me before she leaves so I am giving her til 3pm to call me and then I'm gonna call her! I have too much time and energy invested in getting this job!
Talked to the Nurse recruiter for Parkview Main (competing hospital for my out of state readers) and he is sending my application to the nurse manager in the NICU. Andys boss is his cousin so she gave him my resume. You really do have to know someone to get in anywhere it feels like. I also have a letter of recommendation going for me at Parkview North and talked to that Nurse recruiter yesterday.
THIS IS CRAZY!!! I just need a job!!! Dukes never called back or returned my email that I had sent (by request as a followup) so I'm assuming they picked someone else for that adult ICU position.
I've applied everywhere!! Including non hospital places. Dang Fort Wayne and its bazillion nursing schools that have so many graduating at one time! Well that...and my termination is always a red flag on applications. :(
Ok vent over.
Austin is doing awesome! :) I swear he has grown an inch in the last week because suddenly all of his 3 month sleepers are getting to short in the legs! We only have four 6 or 6-9 month (depending on the brand) sleepers so I might have to get some more soon! Had to move up to the 6-12 month socks this week too. Growing so fast! He is currently loving his exersaucer and being outside (brief amts of time and out of the sun). Still likes to catnap for me...sleeps great for mom. He sleeps from 9/9:30pm to 6-7ish am!! No teeth yet (thankfully on my part) but I don't think it'll be too long because he really bites down hard on his fingers and his teethers lately. :)
Wow this turned into a long post. Sorry! I'll update later or tomorrow on what I hear about Dupont.

I had a great first Mothers day! Love Austin soo much!! Love Andy too of course! :) Austin did very well at his baby dedication & lunch afterwards.
Andy & I celebrated our 3 year anniversary yesterday. :) We went to Applebees for dinner and then DQ for dessert while my parents watched Austin. Looking forward to many, many more happy years together!!
Earned a A- in both classes this semester bringing my total gpa to a 3.6. :)
Summer semester starts Monday.
A part time nights NICU position was posted yesterday for Dupont!! I applied & called the nurse manager. :) She said the prn one should be posted soon now that the part time one was up. I told her that I was interested in the part time one also so she is checking on permission to hire me for that one...she has permission to hire me for the prn one I guess. She is suppose to be calling me back soon. I hope! This has been a long, crazy waiting process.

Happy Nurse's Day!! :) Can't wait to start working again...I miss taking care of the tiny babies so much! Although nothing compares to taking care of Austin! :)
I hope everyone has a great Mother's Day weekend! Austin's baby dedication is also on Sunday morning. :)
Gotta finish my case study today (yeah, I've been slackin') and submit it and then spring semester will be done!

Austin has averaged 10 hours of nighttime sleeping each night for the last 3 nights!!! Let's hope this trend continues. He wakes up super happy. :)
But with this new nighttime schedule he appears to be on a nap strike!! Cat naps or no naps the last two days....hmm...
I have a interview tomorrow afternoon at Dukes Memorial in Peru. It's for a prn position in the medical/surgical ICU...not ideal at all but I need a job so I'm taking the interview. It's 70 miles from my house. Why can't Dupont just post that darn position?!?

Happy May everyone! :)
We like our new couch! :) Much more comfortable and it seats more people now. Attempting to train the dogs to stay on a blanket only when they are laying on the couch.
Got my hearing date for my unemployment benefit appeal. Its May 13th. But then today when I was on the unemployemt website it wanted me to fill out a form to resume my benefits...so I did but I don't know if that was just a standard computer thing or what?? Who knows.
My fabulous friend Jessica wrote me a letter of recommendation for Parkview North! She works there in surgical admissions but knows the NICU nurse manager and the NICU educator so she gave them a letter of recommendation about me. So maybe I will have a better chance at getting an interview in their NICU. Last I checked they had 3 spots that were open...they arent on the website anymore but they may still be open. Still waiting on Dupont also.... I have of course been applying at other hospitals and other positions but no calls yet. Need something fast!!! If I don't have a NICU job by the end of May then I will have to get some strings pulled so that I can go in to a NICU to do my assessments for one of my summer classes. Stressful to think about. My advisor says she can set me up at Methodist to do the assignments ...nice ..but I don't want to drive 2 hrs each way to do assessments for free.
This upcoming week is the last week of spring semester! Yay! I have my scholary project paper due on Wednesday, a final big case study due Friday and my adv. pathophysiology final to take by Friday. Whew! Summer classes start May 16th so I get a whopping 10 days off.
Austin is doing great!! We've tried cereal 3 times now and he's steadily getting better at it!!! :) His baby dedication is this coming Sunday, on Mother's day! :)

Rain, rain go away! It's been raining everyyyy day! We need a break from it! The dogs would really like to start going on walks!! They have cabin fever!
Our couch is finally going to be delivered on Wednesday!! We ordered it a loooong time ago and it was originally supposed to be in April 1st. In hindsight we prolly should have saved our $$ since I ended up quitting Community North but we can't go back in the past. I'm excited about it!! Salvation Army is coming to take our old couch and chair. :)
Austin had a great first Easter! He got spoiled & loved on by all the family!! :) See facebook for pics! :)
The end of the semester is coming up fast! I have one more quiz to take on Thursday for Patho and then I'll be studying for my final which is May 6th and working on my final big case study due that same day. I also have to finish up our Scholarly Project group paper which is due May 4th. I'm sooo happy this is the last paper I will have to write/co-write for my masters! Less than 13 months til I graduate...who's counting?! :)
No new news on the job front but it is only Monday so stay tuned.
Hopefully I'll hear back this week from the judge on when my unemployment hearing will be.
That's all for now. Looking forward to Abbey, Gracie, & Gregory Jr visiting tomorrow afternoon! :)

Austin had a great pediatrician appt this morning. :) He weighs 14lbs 5oz (50th percentile), 23 1/4in long (5th percentile), and his head measured 16.5in (40th percentile).
She wasn't worried that he no longer wants to roll from belly to back. She said sometimes babies just choose not to anymore..haha! She was happy with his supported sitting, his weight bearing on his legs when held in the standing position, and the fact that he controls his head when she helps pull him from laying to sitting to standing. :) He's a good boy! I'm glad we work on all this stuff at home!
She said we could start on cereal if we wanted but it wasn't necessary yet since he's breastfed. Might try it and see how he does. :) He tolerated his 2 shots well. :)

Got my "Determination of Eligibility" letter in the mail today and my unemployment claim was not approved. Dang it. So now I have to file for an appeal and have a hearing with the administrative law judge. Hopefully he/she rules in my favor and the process doesn't take weeks (it could take 8-10 weeks).
What would be really great is if Dupont would just approve that position so I can start working there!! I've been applying for jobs while waiting since we need money! God is in control but it's hard to be patient.

Hmm...the unemployment homepage is not showing anything new...guess I will have to call them in the morning to see what's up.
Austin had a good 4 month birthday yesterday. :) His grandma (my mom) & I took him to get his pictures taken with a real bunny. He did really well!! No smiles for the camera though..stinker!
This semester is almost over!! 3 more weeks! Crazy!!

My unemployment was approved!!! ....I think..
It's not showing anything under "Issues delaying payment" where before it was saying "Voluntary Quit". Not getting my hopes up yet since in the payment column it is only showing one week of payments left which is all I had left before I started at Community North. I'm thinking/hoping that after I file my work search on Saturday/Sunday that it will reset the system and show me how many weeks I am eligible for.
I've been applying to jobs since that is a requirement for umeployment collection (minimum 3 jobs per week that you have to list) while I am waiting for the Dupont job to be finalized which seems to be taking forever. What the heck?!
