Introducing . . . Baby Bender

Well, as a few of you may have already found out, I'm pregnant. We are 12 weeks along and doing great.  We have had two ultrasounds, one at 8 weeks and one at 11 weeks. One of the advantages of working for an OBGYN is we get free ultrasounds whenever we want a peek. The baby has changed so much from the time we first saw our little peanut. We are very excited and can't wait to experience what happens next.

Here are some pictures from the ultrasound we had last Monday.

This picture is taken from behind the baby.

This is a side view of the baby relaxing.

Another side view.

We will keep everyone updated as we progress in the pregnancy. We are expecting to find out the gender of the baby in about a month. Last night I had a dream it was a boy, but our families think it will be a girl.

Surprise

So Nick surprised me and got home tonight. He tried to get one passed me, but I started catching on. He told me that he got of work at 6 PM, and that he was going to the gym and then to a movie with a friend in Lubbock tonight. I just had a feeling he was coming home, and he was!! Yeah!

Trip to Amarillo

Last weekend I met up with Nick in Amarillo, TX and we drove to New Mexico. It was for a company get together at a partner's lake house. It was very enjoyable and everyone was very nice. We met up with everyone and had dinner on Friday night and then on Saturday we spent all day at the lake. The weather was beautiful! Nick had a blast on the jet skies and also driving the boat. It was a very fun and exhausting weekend. . .the drive always kills me.

This is Nick and Bella . . . such a cute dog!! She is so playful and sweet!

This is me . . . my legs are red, but not from this day. We had a work swim party and I always forget to put sunscreen on my legs.

The jet skies were a blast. The yellow one was very fast and Nick and I fell off of it. I prefered the white one because it didn't have as much power.

Thankfully I wont be having to drive long distances anymore to see my husband!! Yeah! Nick will be packing up tonight and on his way home tommorrow! I can't wait for him to be home. I have missed him these past 6 weeks. 

Visit to Lubbock, Texas

I just got my computer working this past weekend, so I am catching you all up. Over Memorial Day weekend I went and visited Nick in Lubbock. Nick is living there because he is doing an internship for law school. Today is our half way mark! Yeah!!

He really enjoys his position and speaks very highly of everyone he is working with. While I was there I met a co-worker and his family. They were all very gracious and even invited us over for dinner one night. Very sweet!

Nick took me on a tour of the office. They are located on the 7th floor. Way up there!

This is the view from Nick's office -- very nice!

Just me.

As you know Nick is going to OU. Our biggest rival is the Texas Longhorns . . .

Picnicking In The Park

We have had such beautiful weather the past few days. Nick had the idea yesterday to have a picnic by the fish pond. So we gathered up all the fixings for yummy hamburgers, chips and dip and some fruit and headed off to the park. It was wonderful. Here are some pictures. . .                         

  

                                                       

We had so much fun yesterday . . . so we decided to do it again today. Dinner was delicious. We made chicken shishkebabs with green, red and yellow peppers and onions and pineapple. WOW! We need to do this more often.

How Fast Are You??

Okay this was fun to try. . .I have lost some of my typing skills, but it was nice to see I still know where all the keys are. Try it out.

Reflections of Christ

I guess this photo exhibit, Reflections of Christ, has been on display at the Mesa temple. The photographer, Mark Mabry, recreated the story of Christ's life with photography, taking pictures in Arizona in areas that resemble the Holy Land. There's music too so turn on your speakers. It is beautiful, Enjoy!
