Easter and CCRN

For Easter this year, we decided to make a trip out to see abuelita Lupita. She hasn't been doing well and my aunt Mirna has been keeping the family updated on her Hospice journey. 
It fell on conference weekend so we were able to watch conference in our hotel. 



After watching conference, we went over to see my abuelita. SHe was mostly out of it and her oxygenation levels have been very low. She had been getting morphine to keep her comfortable. 



Lilah was able to recognize her and called her abuelita. I'm not sure if she could still remember us but I think she could still hear her. 


Yazmin, my tia Mirna, my tia Martha, and my Tia Eva were all there. I believe they have been there almost every day. We had a good time conversing with my aunts and just enjoying one another's company. 


After visiting with abuelita, we went and hung out with the Castillos. 


We took the kids to a fun park and then had dinner at In N Out. 


These cute girls love each other. 









The next day we went to the Valley of fire for an outdoor adventure. They had a really awesome park that the kids got to play in. 







My favorite thing is watching my kids play outdoors. 







David is our little dirt monster. He loves playing and digging in any dirt. 








The weather was a little warm but it kept going back and forth between cloudy and sunny. 







We finished off the day spending another night at the hotel. 


We got dessert from Chipotle and enjoyed dinner while watching a movie. 



The next day, the kids enjoyed trick or treating at the hotel. I brought their baskets and some Easter eggs with candy and hid them around the hotel. 







The kids loved the Easter eggs. 


The next week, abuelita Adriana came to visit. 



David is the sloppiest eater ever.


We had a great time spending evenings outside with the family. 






Dinner outside to enjoy the beautiful weather



Man, eating meals with kids is so stressful. 



Lilah is the prettiest girl I've ever seen. She has the most beautiful eyes


I love her silly smile









My mom came over for a week so that I could study for my CCRN. I had been studying non-stop all month but she really let me focus and all I did was study while she was here. It definitely worked. I would not have passed if she hadn't come to help me. Now I am Joanna Stewart BSN, RN, CCRN!
(Critical Care Registered Nurse)


It was definitely a hard test!



Lilah has been doing preschool online. Here she is learning about the letter L. 


L is definitely her favorite letter. 


Now that I don't have to study, I have been able to do lots of cute activities with the kids






Lilah water painting outside



I love when my kids help with chores!


Yummy salad. When I am busy I never have time to feed myself so it's so nice to have a nice meal.


My big boy




Big sister love is very strong some times



Haha! I love this picture. Lilah loving on David and David not feeling it. 



I love being outside with my little crew
