Caterpillar transferred Chris and I to Corinth, Mississippi in April. I really love the area and our new little neighborhood. I'm also busy decorating a nursery because we are expecting our first baby in September. It's been a lot of change for us to take in, but now that the house is unpacked things are getting back to 'normal'.

The hardest thing for me is being home all day. It's a real shock to my system to not have a job and a rigid schedule. I'm sure when the baby comes it will be another shock.

Right now it looks like we are going to have a little linebacker. The sonographer swears it's a boy, and he's already begun his spring-training exercise drills. It's unusual for him to not kick or do a back-flip every few hours. It's impossible to sleep when he wants to 'play'.

I'd love to hear from you, and would hate to lose touch just because I move too often. Drop me an e-mail sometime!
