How much longer?

Only two-ish more months to go and I'm not sure where it's all going to go? I feel really pretty good expect when the baby gets all comfy and sits down on my sciatic nerve. Some things at work are getting a little hard to do. Of course the air valve and vacuum flasks are all very far from the edge of the hood/counter. It's getting to be a trick to see if I can reach them. I've now had three people ask me if I'm sure I'm not having twins. That one is always so much fun to answer: "Yes I'm sure...are you sure that big mouth fits on your pea sized brain head?" When will they learn that pregnant women don't enjoy/need it to be pointed out that they are in fact getting bigger. Another interesting note is that I'm not sure I even know how to hold a newborn. I was with my friend who just had her baby and I was holding this squirmy, floppy, adorable little girl and thinking to myself; "How am I suppose to hold this thing, she's ready to jump/roll right out of my arms." I'm sure we'll get plenty of practice. Also, we love our hypnobirthing class. It is just hippie enough for us.

Congratulations to Ryan!!!!!!!

Ryan made it in to Physical Therapy school at the U!!!!!! We are so excited, I even jumped up and down when we got the letter (totally defying gravity and all logic in my current state). We feel so blessed. It is amazing to us to think that a little less than a year ago Ryan prayed/decided that he wanted to be a PT.....then bam, the path is laid out. It has been a lot of study hours and agonizing over applications, but it's all paid off. I am so proud of him and all the hard work he has done. Imagine not taking a science class since high school then acing anatomy, physics and chemistry. He is so amazing. We don't have all the details, but we know that classes start this summer and he'll go for nine semesters straight. He's going to be one busy boy, but enjoying all the learning.

Happy Valentine's Day to my Sweetie

I love my Ryan so much. I thought we should sort of celebrate Valentine's day this year since it will be our last year without kids. We don't believe in buying expensive flowers or crappy chocolates, but we love to spend time together. I made us dinner, well we made dinner together. You can't really tell from the picture but I actually made a pot roast. It turned out really good, as I was told by Ryan. That was my gift to him, meat cooked in his own house by his wife. Ryan made the mashed potatoes, which were so good I couldn't even stand it. We had a great day together and a fabulous evening spent cooking and eating good food.
