Update

Everything seems to be going well for this baby. It makes me eat a lot so it had better be happy. Last week I got to hear the heart beat. It took a while but Dr. Thorpe finally found the little thump thump, beating at about 130 beats per minute. It was wonderful. We are so excited for this baby! I think we will find out what it is in November, so that will be really fun.

Obsessive Behavior

We are totally addicted to "The Office." We bought the first season and watched two episodes a day for a week. Then we bought the second season, and subsequently the third season. This is what we do now. We go to work, go home and watch "The Office". Tonight we are going to watch season three's finale, I am so excited to see how Karen gets booted out of Jim's life and how he can be with Pam! Ahhh, I was a little worried about what we would do when we are done, but thankfully, season four comes out on September 2!!! Its like we go on a date every night.

Finally

Finally I can post my great news! Today, I am ten weeks along in this pregnancy. According to all the books, this is a milestone because the chance of miscarriage drops to about a 5% chance. We had a scare about four weeks ago when on our way to see WALL E I started bleeding. Just the thought of losing another pregnancy was unbearable. We went home to just let it all happen, when my mom gave me a great idea! She told me to call the doctor. She is a very smart woman my mother. So I called and Dr. Wolsey was very nice. We ended up going to the ER for blood work and an ultrasound. They were able to detect a heart beat so everything was still good, although they put me on bed rest for 5 days. It was the most boring time of my life. I am so grateful I have the ability to go outside and work. So, everything is going great now, we are expecting our little bundle on March 18.

Wow what a score!

Brett finished his biochem class this last semester, and today he checked his grade. That smart boy got 196 out of 200 on the final! Needless to say he got an A in the class. He is doing great on this road to medical school. He will take the MCAT on September 13 and apply for med. school for fall 2010. I have no doubt he will get in on the first try. It is so nice to relax after the semester. But since we feel weird not being in school, we signed up for a golf class together. It will be pretty fun. We really like the instructor. For the next six wednesdays we get to go to the driving range and the golf course. Tough course huh? I hope I can get a good grade!

College Algebra

For the past seven weeks, I have been slaving over College Algebra. This is by far the hardest class I have ever taken. This was more than a class, it was an obsession. It took a lot of work, but yesterday I took my final and actually felt really good about it. Luckily my teacher Max wanted to get them all graded so he could go on vacation so grades were posted early this morning. I couldn't believe it when I saw it, but there it was, my final grade a B. Never sit on a chair with wheels under it when checking your grades! I would like to thank my excellent teacher who was patient enough to let me cry (a lot) in his office, and to my sweet husband who supported me through the whole thing. ( I know he was scared I would flake out of it.) I can finally do all the things I like to do and not feel guilty for not studying. The only problem is, I can't remember what I like to do!

Finals are over! Hooray!

Finals are over and done with, thank goodness. I finished my classes and for a change, did fairly well! I really enjoyed my philosophy class, but that english class was tough. A lot of tears were shed over that class. Brett will be done with his finals today. He has worked really hard this semester. Not only did he have to do work for his 16 credits, but he had to console me as I cried my way through the semester. School is a joy isn't it? What a relief to be done, (except that is starts again next week.)

Stuff to blog about

I guess I can blog about my cute husband. He is so wonderful. He will be graduating with his bachelor's degree in December. He is majoring in Biology, and maybe minoring in chemistry. He is so smart that boy! He takes the MCAT on september 13, so remember to pray for him that month. Then it will be off to medical school. I am excited for that. Not only because I won't have to go to school, but it will be nice to move out of state. Although, it will stink to leave all friends and family here.
