Sorry I haven't posted in a while. The holidays really got me this year.
Curt finished the Paramedic program on December 15th with an overall GPA of 3.97. We are so proud of him! He took the national registry test a couple weeks ago and passed it so he is now a Nationally Registered Paramedic. He took both tests for the Jefferson County Personnel Board and is waiting for the ranks to come out in February. Most fire departments in the county use this test to hire so we are hoping for great results.
Pregnancy update---at my appointment on January 6th, at 16 weeks, I gained 9 lbs! Whoa! I was not expecting a number that big so early in the game. I started feeling the baby move right around 16 weeks and Curt felt it the first time this week. I am now 19 weeks and will have a sonar on January 27th to find out if we are having Jacob or Addyson!
Our little guy's name is Jacob Payne. He is named after Curt's grandfather, Harry Payne. Jacob's heart rate was 145 during the sonar and he weighs 11 ounces. Rachel told me she thought it was a boy the morning before the sonar. She just wishes we would name him Samuel. We are all very excited. I have to admit I am a little nervous, not sure what to do with a boy after almost 5 years of girl.
