Jason got an EXCELLENT job at Fort Belvoir Military base. When we found out that he got the job, we were so thrilled so we went out for a nice dinner (he was down with a flu on that week and we had to wait until the weekend to go out) We went to Cheesecake Factory and had to wait an hour and half to get the table but it's WORTH it! Jason had his favourite meal - Pork chops! I can't remember what I got but it was delicious! So far, Jason is doing good with the job - it's a 6 month to permanent - meaning after 6 months, if they like Jason, they would hire him which I hope so. Jason became a good friend with Lou and when they found out that Jason could sign so they took him and introduced to some deaf people who are working there and told them that they can come up to Jason if they have problems.

I have some recent pictures of our baby - Jake - We kept postpoing scanning the pictures because we were so busy trying to find an apartment to live (since Jason just got a new job, the lender said that they only can use my income to buy a place - my income alone isn't sufficient so we decided to rent an apartment for another year and when he works more than 6 months, then we can start and look for houses again this fall). I promise I will post pictures of the baby/fetus sometime this week!

One interesting thing, - I was rambling on how my computer died and mad at Jason because he was the one who handled the computer - I was very moody at that time and being pregnant doesn't help. A friend of mine wanted me to upgrade her computer and she ordered new memory systems. I connected her computer and see if it is on before turning it off and put memory systems in. Well it wouldn't start at all and I noticed that the CPU fan will NOT spin - the exact same problem as my computer. So Jason looked at it and said it's very odd that both of our computers are not working and both of them came from the same house. So we thought they may be short fused or something because it's impossible to have two computers with same problems from the same place. So I told a friend of mine that she had few choices, take to Best Buy to find out why the CPU isn't running, and that will cost her about 200 (labors, parts, and services), or buy a new tower which is only like 600 for a good enough tower but much better than her old computer. She decided to buy a tower. Later on, Jason said, "See, I didn't do anything to your computer" I laughed and said I know, I was just mad that I lost my computer because I was looking forward to having my computer back and it turned out not working. Currently, I'm using the laptop to do things and will wait until this summer when my work give out some surplus computers for 50 bucks.

Good news, my blood pressure has gone down - my blood pressure was SO high last Jan and it has gone down considerably in Feb and the last time I visited the doctor, my blood pressure was under control. My next doctor visit, I would have to take glucose test, making sure that I don't have diabetes - Apparently pregnant women do get diabetes during the pregnancy but they usually disappear after they have the baby.

Oh oh! Jason finally felt the baby kicking for the first time a couple of weeks ago!!!! Jason was in awe when he felt and kept asking me how I feel when it kicks. It's so hard to explain, saying it felt like you have a bad case of gas but you know it's not gas - different kind of gas.

I better shut up here and get those pictures scanned! The doctor said the fetus now is 2 lbs as of 2 weeks ago and said that the fetus has long LEGS - like his father :) The doctor said that the baby is above than average for its age. I guess I will have a big baby after all. I just hope I can make to full term!
