Happenings in the Moskowitz household

Aahh how the time flies when you are keeping busy. Here is a long awaited update.

Elijah is now 4 months old. At his dr's visit he weighed in at 17lbs and is now 27 inches long. He is quite the strong boy and loves to hang out in his jumperoo imitating Tigger. Hannah is still being a big sister and helping out if she is asked niced enough.

The holidays are over and they were nice and relaxing. We went to my mom;s house on Christmas eve and enjoyed our nice feast that she cooked for us including our spiral ham and german cream potatoes.

Elijah at my moms house.

Christmas day we went to Aunt Patti's to catch up and again feast away. Hannah loved playing with her cousins Samantha and Julia.

Using some of the new goodies that I received for Hanukkah

Practicing a little Digital Painting.

Other than that the days have been filled with working. I am officially registered with school and start my online classes next week.

Hannah just went to NYC with Aunt Cyndi, Uncle Todd. Dad, Papa and another family to see Lion King on Broadway, her first official broadway play. She had a blast although the next day she woke up with a stomach bug that has since past to Elijah yesterday and myself today.

And it continues

As of January 1rst I will be back in school. I am working towards my bachelors in nursing. Luckily all of this will be online. I could not waste the opportunity as my job pays for it which is nice without having to give them any years of service in return.

Hanukkah has begun and we are having a good time. It has been very low key which is nice.

On the first night of Hanukkah

These blog updates may have to become a weekly occurance. However I promise to provide good pictures!! Is that a compromise? Work has been quite busy but I continue to learn something new each and every day.

This week I found out that 2 people that I took care of quite often passed away. The first lady had cancer and I took care of her the day she came into the ER. Then when I went to the ICU for 2 weeks she was there and I was able to continue taking care of her. 2 days after I left the ICU she passed away. Most deaths that I encounter are in the ER with pt's that we usually do not get to build relationships with. It does not make death any easier, but I think it protects us from being worn down each time. I take pride in taking care of each patient the same and making them feel safe and secure while I am taking care of them.


Tomm night at sundown is the first night of Hannukah. We are a little behind on getting all of our decorations up but out menorah is ready! And Hannah of course is ready too!!
