Plans

It’s official! Friday I gave my two weeks notice at work. My last day will be May 9th (only 8 more shifts!). Tony flies into North Carolina on May 10th after my final. We will be hitting the road on May 11th. One of our good friends, Kandice, has a sister who lives in Dallas, so she will be making the road trip with us. We are happy to get to spend this extra time with her- and hopefully to teach her how to drive a stick shift! We are also planning on stopping in Georgia to see our great friends Leslie, Luis, and Carmine. They moved down there a few months ago and we are so excited to see them, even if it is just for a bit. I am very excited to be getting down to Texas; it’s been extra hard being away from Tony and the pups since my recent visit. I am hoping to find a pharmacy job when I get down there. We are also in the process of looking for a new car. The Mustang is not really conducive to a baby seat, and the Honda doesn’t have air conditioning or heat- both of which are needed. So we are in search of a good family car. Here’s hoping it goes well.

Tony and I have decided on the decor for our baby’s room! We have picked a ‘woodland friends’ theme.

It’s great because it can start gender neutral, but after we find out the sex we can add feminine or masculine touches. We are super excited to start planning the nursery.

I am now about 15 weeks along. I finally had someone tell me that I am starting to show! I think this is very exciting, since everyone else has been telling me that I look like I’m loosing weight. I attempted to take a picture of myself on a particularly ‘baby-liscous’ day.

Love, Melanie, Tony & +1
