No baby yet...

So, I'm 40 weeks today...and still hanging in there with the big belly. I wanted to know what the baby counter to the left would say once I reached the due date ( like, -0 days to go...or something like that...hehe). Steve and I are very anxious for his arrival, but we're not the only ones...his parents, my parents, grandparents, co-workers, and others have been keeping contact everyday to find out if something is going on around here. Sadly, this baby is not making much progress towards his debut, but hopefully he will soon!! I'm still working since I feel great, plus it helps to work from home :)
I'm confident he will be here by my next post!
Hope everyone will have a great Thanksgiving.

Baby Shower & Baby Room

I've been so lazy to update the blog, Steve's helped me out by doing the last post of his San Diego Trip, which I was sad I didn't get to go. But I'm sure one day we will go back together to explore beautiful San Diego.
I can't believe it's already November and my due date is just around the corner...the doctor said at 37 weeks the baby is full-term! I can't believe he can be here anytime now! I've been feeling pretty good, except for being so swollen all over (my feet, ankle, hands, face...). I'm hoping it will all go away once the baby is here.
My baby shower was so much fun. My mom and her helpers put together a baby shower for me and my sister-in-law, Virginia (who's due in December). Below are some pictures, and as you can see there was plenty of food and fun! My mom and some friends even performed a dance from an Abba song to show everyone that moms can still have fun!

The baby room is finally clean and organized just waiting for Alec to come home. It took me hours and hours to get it together since I've been just piling stuff there for last few months. Now I can't stop going in there cause it looks so cute and feels so comfy!

San Diego Trip

This is a quick video from my trip about a year ago to San Diego in a 172. My friend and I flew about 9 hrs from Denver to San Diego trying to build some time for our commercial pilot certificate. We flew from Centennial to Albuquerque, Albuquerque to Phoenix, Phoenix to San Diego International. San Diego International was awesome. I flew the localizer approach in to their only runway just over top of the condos and into the displaced threshold where the centerline lights were all lit up just before dusk. What a rush! Behind me was a MD-11 from FEDEX and in front of me was a B-737 from Southwest. I had the throttle firewalled and the airspeed indicator pegged. We were probably doing about 145 knots or so down to the runway. Luckily the air was really smooth this day. We stayed the night in KSAN and then flew to Catalina Island the next morning. This was also a cool flight because it was about 50 nm off the coast of Southern California located at the top of a mountain. The runway was 3000 ft long (shortest runway I have landed on). At the end of the runway is a cliff that goes off into the ocean about 1200 ft. below. Very cool! Check out the link. I know the photography isn't very good, but my friend is the one that took it. He's a pilot not a photographer. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4322772973261107406&ei=ii30SMCtFISKqQPfpc0B&q=steves+san+diego+trip&hl=en
