Let me brag for a minute...

I knew he could do it!!!!

Micah passed his first round of National Boards. He will have two more parts before he will become a Dr. but I know he is relieved that the first part is over. The second part is this fall and the last part is right before he graduates a year from now.

I couldn't find a picture of just him in his white coat so here we are.

I love you Micah, way to go!

Stake Conference with an Apostle

Micah and I met L. Tom Perry today after our Stake Conference. I wasn't going to wait in line so as I was sitting up front I saw that there was a pause in the line and he was just standing there so I reached up to shake his hand. He asked me if I always carried a bottle of water around with me and I told him that since I am pregnant I try to drink lots of water and he said that it was a good habit to have. What a sweet spirit he carries. He was so funny and joked a lot about being the oldest Apostle and how he is the liveliest and healthiest. He will forever be the first Apostle I have ever met and a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Micah's Dad makes a visit

Micah's Dad came for a short weekend visit to speak at UAB.
It's so nice when we have family come see us because it rarely happens...cough, cough...not trying to make anyone feel guilty. =)
Of course Micah took him shooting and here is a picture of Micah's Honor Society certificate...I'm a proud wife.

Blue Angels

Micah was in HEAVEN last weekend when we went to see the Blue Angels in Tuscaloosa. We plugged up the iphone to the speakers in our car to listen to General Conference and were on our way! We had no idea what we were in for. So... I didn't realize that a free air show with the BA was such a big deal and Tuscaloosa didn't either because they were not ready for the 200,000+ people who were in attendance. Micah had a ball, took too many pictures, and I got a funnel cake so everyone was happy! We were asked by a family of 6 to drive them to their car 5 miles away, they were so sweet and left $40 in our car, so we went out to dinner and had CRAB!!! AHHHH, my favorite!

Anyway as far as an update goes, I'm doing the same...still throwing up a ton but Max is doing great and moving more and more each day. We had a name ready if it was a boy and it is Bryant Maxwell Kinney and we will call him Max.

Micah has 4 weeks left of class and then he is a 4th year. I can't believe how fast our time in Birmingham has gone and I wish it would slow down. He will spend his 4th year in different hospitals and clinics around here and is really excited about it.

We hope everyone has a good Easter weekend! Easter is my second favorite holiday because of my Grandma Kuta who always made it so special for us! I always miss Virginia this time of year...there is nothing better than the millions of apple and cherry blossoms that take bloom but Birmingham never disappoints...it is so beautiful here, we sure do love Alabama!
