Well, I started my job at Lynntech, Inc. June 1st so this update is way overdue. I am enjoying the job. It is challenging and requires quite a bit of thinking which is good (most days). I spend a lot of my time in lab running experiments which I enjoy and the rest of my time is spent analyzing data and designing experiments. I like most of the people I work with and overall I am enjoying the work that I am doing. I still have a lot to learn about how the grant process works but that will come later. For right now, I am happy that my education has provided me with a decent scientific foundation to build on.

In other news, the baby bump is coming right along! Most people who don't know me can't tell yet but I certainly can. And last Friday, I felt the baby kick for the first time! It felt like a little flutter against my bladder. Earlier last week I had really started to be able to feel the presence of the baby so I know it has been growing quite a bit in the past couple weeks. I have a feeling we have hit a big growth spurt so my bump should really start getting bigger soon.  I am at work currently, but I will try to remember to update the baby photo album this week with pictures of my bump.
