As you may have noticed, we are HORRIBLE bloggers. Without consistent internet at home, and no access to this website at work, it makes it difficult. But, as you may have guessed from the title of this latest blog endeavor, we are pregnant! So, perhaps I can try to be more consistent so that all of you can see my growing tummy (and it already is!) and sometime in September can see pictures of our beautiful new baby.
I am 14.5 weeks pregnant. We find out in less than a month if it's a little boy or girl-I can't believe how fast, yet at times how SLOW, this pregnancy has gone!
The first trimester was a bit rough-I can't complain much, because I have friends who throw up all day long AND have other children at home. You deserve awards. But, I was feeling rather yucky all day long, no energy, my poor house and husband didn't get the attention they deserved, etc.
But, the second trimester is wonderful! I feel so much better, so much more like myself, except for those crazy bouts of hormones where I feel like the world is over because my students are acting like teenagers (fancy that!) and I am SO upset. Or when I'm convinced I've probably killed our baby because I didn't eat enough veggies that day. Wow. My doctor told us that pregnant women all hop on the crazy train and that I need to just get off at the first stop. So, every now and then, my wonderful husband encourages me to get off the crazy train. :) It really does help.
More to come!

What's up with us
Sorry I'm not real good at posting pictures/comments in an orderly fashion....I do want to give a quick update as to what we're up to...
I started a new school year at Granada (my 6th year teaching!) and am really enjoying it so far. It's amazing how busy it gets-all you teachers out there know what I mean when I say that you are never done...I imagine we're not the only job that feels that way. :) I do have great students and teach in a wonderful school. I'm really enjoying some of the friendships I'm making with teachers near me.
Curtis is still loving doing full time youth ministry. We have a great group of teens. Our junior high students just returned from a weekend missions trip to San Francisco. It was such an amazing time for them. Curtis was so impressed with the hearts of these kids!
Curtis and I have recently become quite hooked on "The Office". We don't get tv at home, but in the last 2+ weeks have managed to watch every single episode done so far by renting, borrowing, and watching the seasons on line. We now spend much of our together time quoting the Office. My personal favorite character is Dwight....I mean, seriously. My favorite prank I think is when Jim and Pam put his stuff in the vending machine and then Pam bought his pencil cup....and of course, the office romance is the best! If you don't watch the show, you really should...but it's definately not kid humor, so put those kids to bed first!!
Anyhow, I'll let y'all go....but we are doing great down here in Livermore!
