My SITS Day!

I can't believe it ... it's my SITS day, and while they featured me on their page, I acknowledged it by sleeping in. Oops!  Sorry!

I've never known what I would write about on my SITS day.  I think probably the best course of action is simply to tell you a little bit about myself.

My name is Cristina.  I'm a girl that has lived in Texas my entire life, but raised by a very loud and hilarious Puerto Rican family.  I went to Texas A&M for college and had a grand 'ol time there, but decided I wasn't quite done with my education, so I went to law school and graduated from there approximately a year ago!

When I was 16, believe it or not, I met the love of my life...my sweet, brilliant, and supa sexy husband Evan.  Evan will be graduating from medical school in about 3 weeks.  He will be starting his Urology residency in Little Rock, so in approximately a month, we'll be moving there!  We are so excited!

My blog mainly started because ... well ... about 2 months in to my 3rd year of law school, my boobs hurt.  Really bad.  My almost doctor husband said "you're pregnant."  Umm, is he crazy or what?  That wouldn't be what some people would call ideal timing.  But sure enough, 4 tests confirmed!

After some shock on my part (my husband was thrilled ... he wants a basketball team of children), I was absolutely happy.  Liliana Rose was born 5 days after I graduated from law school!  She came approximately a month early but was nearly 7 pounds!  She was just ready to join the world!

Since Liliana's birth, I've decided to alter my career path let's say ... just a tad.  Next year in Little Rock, I will be teaching Economics, heading an Academic Support team, AND be legal counsel for a private school.  This job is truly perfect for me ... a little bit of everything.

And that pretty much leaves us to the present!  These last couple weeks have been rather tough for us as Liliana was diagnosed with Ureteral reflux.  This basically means she'll be on antibiotics until we can get this reflux to stop!  While it hasn't been easy for us to deal with this, we know it's just a temporary something that we'll have to deal with.

 I hope you follow along to see how our lives unfold!  I try to write about marriage, motherhood, being a working Mom, and just about everything under the sun ... I even review books and share recipes!  Thanks so much for reading!

Our happy family!
