Frogs & Snails & Puppy Dog Tails!

IT'S A BOY!!!
This little stinker was being difficult. At the beginning of the ultrasound he was punching me and kicking me and even got the hiccups! The placenta is at the very front of my belly, padding me from his constant aerobic exercises, so I have not felt a punch or kick. Doctor said in a couple weeks it shouldn't be a problem! But when it came time to find out what he was hiding down there, he was shy! :-) Baby Boy Fenton is healthy and measuring in at 20 weeks and 1 day and 11 ounces!

Baby Belly

Just had our 16 week check-up today. Baby seems to be sitting on my left side and definitely causing some havoc in my left leg. A small price to pay for a beautiful, healthy baby! Heard the heartbeat again, what an incredible sound, baby seems healthy! Next month we find out what this little one is! We can hardly wait! In the meantime, I figured everyone would want a belly shot (even though this shirt, come to find out, is not the most flattering, apparently my chest is HUGE and I need a haircut). Can you say "crazy, hormonal pregnant woman"! :-)

Incubaking

Incubaking (a mix between incubator and baking). Here is Ron's definition: process by which your beautiful wife grows ones baby. I think that should just about explain it! Baby Fenton coming to a home near you, May 28, 2012!

Thank You

Since Friday was Veteran's Day, I wanted to post my gratitude and thankfulness to all those who have and those who are currently serving our country in the armed forces. Not only them, but also to the families who have made sacrifices so that their loved ones can perform their duties. I want to thank my husband, Ron, who has decided not only to dedicate his life to serving and helping others as a medical doctor, but also as an officer in the US Navy! Ron you are amazing and I am so proud of you! I love you!

Halloween

So, Halloween came and went and I FINALLY have time to post some of the fun activities we did this year.

Ron and I participated in the Rocky Vista Fall Festival as we did last year. Ron's helped with the pumpkin carving and the group I am vice-president of (SAA-Student Advocate Association) paid for a balloon artist for the afternoon! Loads of fun!

Ron loves balloon hats

Then we went and checked out Anderson Farms, which is about 1 1/2 hrs north of here. We went with our friends and their daughter! It was a beautiful day, but awful hot for the end of October...I think it was pushing 80 degrees!

Seeing ALL the way to Kansas

Ah, the mountains!

Last, but certainly NOT least :-)

NEW JOB

And I am sure most of my loyal blog followers have already heard, but I started a new job at the beginning of September. I am an Executive Assistant/Office Manager for a company in the Denver Tech Center. "Hudson is a professional services firm specializing in Technology, Legal, Finance and Human Resources. We deliver professionals with specific expertise and provide turnkey solutions to improve our clients’ effectiveness." So far, so good. I really don't mind my job, the office is very nice and people are wonderful to work around! It's been a great change (especially the weekends off and paid holidays)!!

Summer Fun

So, I'm a bit behind on blogging. We didn't really have much of a summer vacation this year. I worked all summer and Ron was gone at ODS (Officer Development School) in Rhode Island. But we did make some time to enjoy our friends and all the fun outdoor activities!

We enjoyed several Rockies Games! I love baseball!


Went out to one of the reservoirs with my friend Rachel & her daughter Tessa while the husbands studied. It was beautiful!!!
