I know, I know......It's been awhile!

I wish I could promise that I would be better at blogging, but judging by my past history I better not make a promise that I am most likely not to keep. :-)  But here are a few quick updates about Dust and I.

Dustin:
Has started clinicals and is loving the hands on aspect!  He also enjoys not spending 5-7 hours a night studying!  Dustin continues to play basketball as often as he can fit it in.  He has also become Kelli's hero every weekend.  Not that he wasn't the hero before, but for the last 5 months he has really been amazing.  He has taken over cooking, cleaning, and life in general over the weekends when Kelli is working and sleeping!  What an amazing man!

Kelli:
Has been working as an RN in the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit for 5 months now on the weekend night shift.  Can't say that I like having to sleep all weekend, but I can say that I work with some of the most amazing people!!!  We have such a fun group and everyone is so willing to help each other out.  It makes the 12 1/2 hour shifts bearable!  This shift has been a big change for me.  I am know pretty proficient at sleeping any time of the day and especially fond of sleeping in during the weekdays.  (This is not typical for me. I used to be an early to bed, early to rise type, but weekend night shifts do strange things to the body.....especially when you are preggo!)

Baby Meyer:
I guess I better start including this little one in our updates!  We just found our this week that we are getting a little GIRL!!!  I think we were both a little shocked, cause we had been thinking it was a boy, but I won't lie that I am ecstatic for a little girl as well.  The ultrasound was absolutely amazing!  Little girl Meyer was moving like CRAZY!!!  Rolling and turning all over the place.  We got to see her move her hands up around her face and down at her sides.  She also gave us a big yawn!!!  What a miracle technology is.  We saw her spine, kidneys, hands/feet, and her tiny heart beating!  We got told that she weighs about 14 ounces right now and is right on schedule!  Truly a miracle that 20 short weeks can organize from two cells into a moving, living, precious spirit!  It's still kind of a shock to realize that she will be here in not to long.  Hopefully we will be ready for everything that is going to change!

Otherwise life is going great for us.  We are just taking things one day at a time and enjoying every second we can spend together!  We have just a little over 15 months until our journey in Missouri will conclude and we embark on a new endeavor.  Not quite sure where life will take us in the next two years, but we'll tackle that hurdle when we get there.  As for now we are just enjoying being happy, healthy, and laughing our way through life with amzing friends and incredible families supporting us!
