One baby down, One to go!

So my two preggo coworkers are BOTH expecting babies today! Charly we knew yesterday was in the hospital and was induced, however Karlynn surprised us all this morning when she called to say that after checking into the hospital at 5:45 this morning, she had her baby, Melinda, at 8:30 am! This after we just saw her yesterday at work! Poor Charly is doing just fine, but ready for it all to be over with, but as far as we know, every one is healthy and doing great! Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers! Such an exciting day with two new babies and a new president!

Well,,,time to move on

So I received the letter today that I was not offered an interview at Midwestern University. I'm pretty bummed, and not really inspired about receiving four more letters, but I'm moving on and just trying to keep working hard.

On a positive note, my running is going well. I've increased my speed so I can run 2 miles faster than two weeks ago. So that's nice! And I took a hip hop dance class today at the YMCA with my friend Meredith, and it was REALLY fun!

Hope this post finds you all doing well!

Oh baby!

So for the past 8 months there have been not one, but two pregnant ladies (both physical therapists) in our office. Well, Charly's blood pressure started to increase just ever-so-slightly last week, and when she checked it yesterday it was a tad higher than the doctor had wanted, so she visited her doctor yesteday afternoon, just to make sure things were still going well. Charly is 36 weeks on Thursday, but as of last night she was put on bed rest, and the doctors expect to deliver next week! We're bummed that she can't come to work, but we're SO excited for her and her husband Jeremy! Please pray for them in this next week which could definitly be a difficult time for the two of them!

Happy New Year!
