100 Days (and counting)!

Well the little baby ticker on the side says that we only have 100 days until our little baby girl, Emmalee, is due to join us! It's crazy to think that I am almost six months pregnant, time is sure flying. I am hoping that Emmalee does come just a tad bit early (but not too much, of course!). We are just excited to meet her! Yeah for the 100 day countdown!

11 Months Old!!!

We can hardly believe it!!! Our baby boy is a mere four weeks from his first birthday--how does that happen?!! Since last month Andrew has overcome his dislike of grass and promptly crawls away anytime he gets a chance. He has recently discovered the local park and playground and LOVES going headfirst down any slide he can get close to (picture a diver going off a diving board =) No walking yet but he is getting very close, we have a feeling that Andrew might skip walking altogether and go straight to running! He loves to EAT especially fruit and lets us know when we are not shoveling it into his bottomless pit fast enough! He definitely keeps us on our toes--Happy 11 month day Andrew!

It is official!

Today was a great day for me. I went to my orientation for the U and registered for classes. My sexy picture for my UID is also taken, and all I need now are my books and a parking pass and I'm ready to go. I think I will only need one book this year, so that's a serious plus! Calculus I, and it's far less than my Trig book for this semester and MUCH thicker. It will also work for Calc II! So surprising! I also found out about the financial aid and what a relief that was. My tentative schedule is as follows:

I also have two online classes scheduled. Middle Eastern Geography and a computer programming lab. The total credit hours are 14.5. I feel so much more relieved with this schedule than this semesters schedule. 16 credits is far too many for me to work full time and spend time with the family. All of this stuff has happened so fast and really stressed me out when I was reminded of the financial aid I might have had to complete.

Acceptance, check.
Financial aid, check.
Orientation, check.
Meet with counselor, check.
Register for classes, check!

The Worlds Most Adorable Son

What? 10 Months Already?

We must be absent minded or just plain unobservant. It seems that 10 months has just slipped by without much notice. One minute Andrew was screaming his lungs out as he was rudely removed from Georgette's abode. The next, he is crawling like it's nobody's business, teething like a mad foolio (5 teeth and another on the way), squawking like a real hawk dive bombing on their prey, and devouring food like the grocery stores will have empty shelves at the rate he consumes food. He sleeps through the night, and when he does, you hear his parents sing "Haliejluah". Andrew is also a master of turning on and off lights now with his stellar clap! With a little flapping of the arms, he can wave hello and goodbye. There is also an abundance of skin slapping as he has learned from his cool daddio how to give people 5. We enjoy having him and seeing his happy smiles. He laughs quite profusely when he is given raspberries on his stomach and neck.

Here's to you, Andrew!

Andrew showing a little displeasure at the feel of grass on his hands. One day he will enjoy it, much to his parents chagrin.

Showcasing his latest bruise as he rediscovers his distaste for green, green grass.

"No pictures please! I am not modest! And I haven't even done my hair! Oh, I'm so embarrased!"

"Not only do I squawk like a hawk, I have eyes like a hawk!"

"Look at me do a one handed pushup!"

Some photos I've taken recently.

Here are some photo's I've taken for my photography class. I really like them and thought I'd share. I was working on lighting and different types. I hope you enjoy.

We've Moved!!!

We have moved from our apartment in West Jordan to another in North Salt Lake. This puts us much closer to Murray's job as well as to the University of Utah where Murray will be attending school come August, PLUS it's much less expensive (always a good thing, right?). It will take a bit of getting used to but We are excited for the new adventure! Pictures possibly later--after everything is clean and put away! :)
