I had my first appointment with the Doctor in Oklahoma. Her name is Allison Huebert and I LOVE her! She actually sits on the Board of Trustees for OBU and that's how I got her name. She was recommended to me by some coworkers and I'm sooo thankful to find a great one! She sat and chatted with me for a long time. I never felt rushed for her to get to her next appointment! She worked with me very hard to get an ultrasound scheduled during J's visit in a couple of weeks. So on July 3rd we will have an ultrasound and hopefully find out the gender of the baby! I can't wait for his visit and the ultrasound! Today the baby's heartbeat was 150. We didn't do much else besides chat and check the heartbeat!
I drove by my labor and delivery area also. It's about 5 minutes from the Dr's office and right across the street from the hospital. It's freestanding though so I don't have to worry about infection from other patients! Yay! We have a tour scheduled on July 1st during J's visit here. Hopefully I'll have lots more to report in a couple of weeks!

19 Weeks and the new job!
I'm now 19 weeks and 1 day along. Here's the picture! I'm trying to wear the same shirt for pictures so you can really see the difference! I can definitely feel the difference! On Sunday night when I went to bed I read a book for a while before falling asleep and I felt the baby kick (or punch) me! It was great and totally weird! Karale and I are hoping we can feel it on the outside before Justin gets here for his visit! I don't know if that will happen, but it would be really cool for him to get to feel it!
I've started my new job at OBU and I really think I'm going to like it! It's been kind of slow at first because has lots of meetings and wasn't able to show me much, but he's learning that he can just throw things at me and I'll do them! I've been working on the master budget spreadsheet for the University and I found a lot of discrepancies that we went over yesterday. He told me they were good finds and then he walked around the corner and gave the other lady a thumbs up and pointed to me. Nancy (the President's secretary) told me he did it and that he's never done that for anyone in this position before! I was very glad she told me because I haven't quite figured out how to read him yet!
I've visited Nichole's church once and I've already been talked into helping with VBS this summer! I love it though because I get to teach the age I love! It will be fun I think!
The University offers a water aerobics class which Nichole and I have joined. It's not very hard and I don't feel like my heartrate gets up much, but we figured it was better than doing nothing. We've decided to also start going on our own and doing our own swimming and workouts. We are determined to be fit during pregnancy so labors not so hard on us!! I've scheduled a doctor's appointment this week on Thursday, June 14th. I really hope I like this doctor. She's in Midwest City and she sits on the Board of Trustees for OBU. She was highly recommended! My next goal is to start looking at daycares around and trying to find a place we like.
We just booked a flight for Justin to come visit me. He will be here June 29-July 4. It seemed a little stupid to dip into our moving money for this, but it's really hard being this far apart for this long and I feel like he's missing good pregnancy stuff! I'm hoping he can schedule some job interviews while he's here and then hopefully that will lead to a job offer! Please pray that we either sell the house or he gets a job so that we can be here together finally!!! I'm also hoping to schedule the gender check ultrasound during this time so we can be together and find out the gender of the baby and see the baby together!
It's been really fun being in Oklahoma though. I've gone to see my parents (and work at camp) twice now and I've been to Durant to see the grandparents and friends once. It was very weird going to Durant and not being able to go "home". I stayed at Sherry and Steve's house which was nice, it was just weird not going to Kiersy corner! I went to camp to cover for mom during Becca's wedding and dad decided he wanted to send the President a Crosstimbers shirt for all he does. When I was leaving dad was like "Oh wait! You never got the shirt and you won't be back before camps over!" I said "Yes I will, I'll at least see ya'll haircutting weekend and you can send the shirt with mom, but I'm sure I'll be back before August!" and he said "Oh yeah, you're in Oklahoma now! This is kind of nice!" It is kind of nice, but I'm starting to miss Ohio's summer a little bit. This would have been easier if we had moved in the Fall/Winter I think because I would be ecstatic to get away from there that time of the year. Right now, it's hard to give up my swimming pool! I've been desperate for a pool, so I think Nichole and Bryant are going to take me to the city public pool and see what it's like.
