baby GIRL!



so fun! Yesterday we got to "meet" our little girl. For almost an hour we were able to watch her move, wiggle, and turn. The ultrasound tech watched her for awhile hoping to get a good picture of her heart as she stubbornly refused to be in the best position for it, but we were completely content with the wait as it was so wonderful to be able to take a little peek into our daughter's current life. :)

rest for the weary...

The big conference was last week…this is the annual Michigan Association of School Nurses conference that I plan/organize/run every year. Of course, I would not be able to do it without my trusty helpers—but this year seemed particularly exhausting. The whole weekend felt like one big hangover…and I’m sure being 18 weeks pregnant had nothing to do with it! ;) The conference was wonderful though and now I can count down the days til the end of the school year (17 and counting!)

I was also welcomed back home to the beginning of my next grad class: pharmacology. Just the word sounds horribly intimidating and therefore I can say I’m not really looking that forward to it. I just pray that it can be as applicable to my daily work as my other classes have been to make it more tolerable!

No other major news to report…although we definitely are welcoming spring. We’ve even talked my currently layed-off father and uncle into completing an extreme-makeover on our backyard! Perfect timing too, as today marks 8 years I've lived on Prospect. Hopefully some pictures on that project to come!
