Donnie Passed The Academy!

Donnie passed the Fire Academy! He's been there before, for the Engineer Academy in summer of '06, but now he had to go back for the Firefighter II portion for 6 weeks. He was offered a permanent position before he left, so all he had to do was pass the academy and come home to a permanent Engineer position at Napa station. We're VERY excited of course, Donnie never has to go back to the academy and now both of us have permanent jobs! With the pink slip scare in the school district and how hard the academy was, we're both so, so relieved it's all over and we're set for now.

Yup, it's true!

Donnie and I are expecting our first little one. We're very excited! The little blob, as I call it now, is due November 5th. It was hard to keep it a secret (Donnie and I both hate secrets), but we're excited to tell everybody now! And since we both hate secrets/surprises, yes, we will be finding out what it is and telling everyone soon.

"The Blob" back at 8 weeks in March


The blob becomes a big-headed-alien at 12 weeks in April
