Vacation

Yea!!! It's summer vacation...well for Scott anyway. However, I am enjoying those days I do have off and we get to spend some time together. On Tuesday we took the dog and went up to the lake for a picnic and some time in the water. The weather was great and I got some sun...I still look like a ghost though. Due to the massive amounts of rain we've had lately what used to be the 25 foot cliffs are no longer there - they are now under water.

Tomorrow we leave for San Antonio for a week- sounds like a great vacation doesn't it. We are going because I have to have CME hours to keep my PA license. So it is actually an educational vacation. I'll spend the days in classes while Scott gets to relax by the pool. However, I do plan to go sight seeing in the afternoon and evenings. I can't wait to get my hands on some mexican food. The National PA conference is always the week of Memorial Day...also the week of our anniversary. We get some pretty nice anniversary trips out of this!

The pregnancy is going well and I love feeling Colt move. He is an active little thing and keeps me entertained. I am not really looking forward to the 10 hour car ride tomorrow but I'm sure I'll survive.

Harding Academy Baseball

Scott and I love baseball. We have watched Cardinals games together since we started dating. This year he has been helping as an assistant coach with Harding Academy's team. The team has done amazing well this season, beating most of their opponents by the mercy rule. On Monday they won their Regional tournament, a first in HA history, and moved on to the state tournament. Today they won their first game of the state tourney, beating Lamar by a pretty big margin. If they win a couple more games they get to play in the championship game in Fayetteville. This would be so exciting for those boys. GO WILDCATS and good luck!!!

22 Week Visit

I had my 22 week checkup today and the doctor says everything is looking good. Colt's heartbeat is strong and I'm progressing like I should be. It is so exciting feeling him move! I know he needs to continue to grow and get strong inside me but I can't wait to meet him. 18 weeks seems like forever. We finished his nursery last night so I've posted a few pics.

Up-to-date

So I'm new to the whole blogging concept...mostly because I just don't have the time to sit down and figure this out. However, I've decided to give it a try anyway.

First, I guess I should start by getting everyone up-to-date on our lives.

Scott and I married on May 26th, 2005. Two weeks later I started Harding University's Physician Assistant Program. While I was busy for two years working towards my Masters of Science, Scott was busy teaching high school history at Harding Academy and working towards his Masters of Education. In July 2007 we both graduated and all the hard work was worth it!!!
In September of 2007 I started work at PrimeCare Medical Clinic. I work at both the Searcy and Conway locations.

In January of this year we got some wonderful news...our family would be expanding. I found out I was pregnant just after New Year's 2008! Scott and I are both very excited. April 1st, the PA program did an ultrasound for me and we found out that we are having a little boy. From the beginning of the pregnancy I had a gut feeling, or I guess a mother's instinct, that they baby was boy! Always trust a mother's instinct! His name is Colt Dylan Diles. Since then we have been working on getting his nursery ready.

And that brings us to today...so you should be up on all the facts now!
