Jason's Business Card Ceremony

Last Friday (Oct 3), Jason had his business card ceremony. Cleveland makes a mini production out of the student getting their Intern business cards for clinic. Sort of a milestone graduation ceremony. There's a lunch, some speeches, each student walks on stage to shake hands with the clinic director and president of Cleveland and get their picture taken. It's a simple ceremony but it represents a huge accomplishment and a lot of hours [and money] spent to get to this point.

Jason's parents made the drive from Texas to attend and we brought all three boys. He'd never say it, but I know it meant the world to him that we could all be there.

I cannot express how proud I am of him. He's come so far, gotten through a lot of tough days/nights/exams and he's done an amazing job. He is going to be an awesome DC, I'm so impressed with how well he does already and he's still learning! I can't wait to see him finish his journey and watch him accomplish all of his dreams and goals. The boys and I love you and we have your back all the way!!

Copy Cat

I'm contemplating doing a Project 365 blog... Such a cool idea and I think it would be fun to look back and see how my year was in pictures :) And, yes, I'm copying off my sister's 365 blog . Opinions?

Almost Fainted Yesterday - Not. Cool.

Yesterday late morning I was sitting at my desk and I felt...funny. Then the "funny" feeling turned into ears ringing, hot flash, seeing stars, light- headedness . Scared the poo out of me. So I sat at my desk for a good 2 to 3 minutes with my head between my knees - or atleast as close to my knees as I can get right now - trying not to panic and make it worse. I never actually passed out/fainted but got pretty close. The thing that scared me the most though was that NO ONE AROUND ME NOTICED! Not that I wanted all kinds of people flocking over to me to see if I was ok , but would have felt a little better if one person would've atleast thrown me an "are you alright?". I hope I never go into labor at work, good grief. I'll be driving myself to the hospital and two hours later people will be going "Where's D?" That diva moment aside, I finally felt ok to stand up and walk to the breakroom to get a glass of water and then asked my boss to go d...

[Im]Patiently Waiting for Baby Allen - 4 weeks to go!

I started out this pregnancy looking like this: And here I am at [almost] 36 weeks: Holy crap, I sure hope that tiny tummy comes back to me after this baby is born...and I lose a couple chins...and a couple pounds off the cheeks, both sets. I think I'll leave my hair long though. Not cute in that first picture. Anywhozit - 4 weeks to go!! Yay, I'm so excited. I had my doc appt and BPP yesterday. Baby didn't want to do his breaths at the BPP so we had to do an NST (Non-Stress Test). Basically, I sat in a big comfy recliner while they hooked the monitors up to my belly and recorded his heartbeat/movements and my contractions. I dozed off a couple times while I was sitting there listening to his heartbeat beep...it was rough. He passed the NST with flying colors - Dr even told me they could use my print out for textbooks because my results were EXACTLY what they should look like. (My child's perfect already - jealous?!) Next week is his growth scan [possibly his last one] ...
