Goodbye October

so I was a little delayed on posting my October cookie jar lid but there ya go. My only halloween decor. I just couldnt pull myself to go buy decorations for this holiday. One I did not participate in at all. I hung a sign on the door Saturday and Sunday saying " No candy tonight, sorry" and went to bed. Yeah, I'm a party pooper. But when you have a little dog who loves little kids and running away, it was just asking for trouble to actually pass out candy. So I passed.

Some recent happenings pregnancy wise, I did throw up for the first time last week. Seems weird to me since I was 12 weeks along before it happened. My family all thought it was a fluke since Ihadn't been sick at all. Well, today confirmed that all it was. Drew woke up with a lil funny feeling. Same one I had the day I got sick. Seems like its just been going around our house but with almost a week in between each of us. Drew's bro started it all almost two weeks ago. About five days later, it hit me. About the same amount of time passed and it hit drew. that poor thing. But we are relieved to know I didnt not get sick because of the pregnancy.

My next appointment is in 3 weeks, Nov 22nd. I'll be 16 weeks and hoping we might be able to figure out what we're having! I'm okay either way because I do want multiples of each at some point. Its more just that I was to be a name to this growing belly. So.. fingers crossed!

Upcoming events in November:

Dental school interviews in Colorado and Oklahoma!

Coming to a couple near you..

May 8, 2011!

That's right, we're having a baby! We're pumped! I've been dying to just announce it to everyone but have been waiting until after my first prenatal appointment. Well, that was today! Everything is going great! I heard the heart beat and saw some little feet kickin. I thought I was 10 weeks but according to the ultrasound and the doctor, we're ahead of schedule! the little one is 4.4 cms so the doctor estimates the due date of May 8. Going into the appointment I was thinking it would be May 15. Hey, I'll take earlier for sure!

Here's some pictures of our little booger.

showing some muscles! (left arm, elbow, and hand)

during the foot kicking. notice the foot stickin up on the left side.

BoOmEr SoOnEr!

Drew received another dental school invite yesterday. Yep, you guessed it.... OU!We kind of have mixed emotions about OU... We used to be super pumped about it before the whole interview process started. But now that it has.. we dont really see ourselves there. But hey, we'd be happy to go there too. It just depends on other things.

But either way... BOOMER SOONER!

OU- November 12th

5 & 6

First off, Drew was disappointed with me for not putting the logo of AT Still up. so there you go!

AT Still interview Sept 23rd

And now for the latest invites! He got one for Louisville this last Wednesday, I think it was.

Louisville interview is October 22nd

Then on Thursday he got an interview invite to Colorado! His friend Ben also received an invite there so they are gunna travel together.

Colorado interview will be November 2nd.

I'm just so proud of Drew! Good thing I married a smart one ;)

Case interview and #4

So Sept 3rd Drew had his Case Western interview in Cleveland, Ohio. It went great. Everyone was super chill and nice. He loved it! He loved everything, the school, the people, the staff, the city. Everything! He met a couple people from Mesa which was kinda cool, we know know a lot of the same people as them. One thing I think is cool is that like every other student is LDS. So that could be fun.

I dont know, I still think Ohio is where we'll end up. but we'll see.

Drew also recently received an interview invite to AT Still! He has the interview next week the 23rd. Um, no comment on that, but we'll see how it goes.

Either way, we're excited again that life is finally picking up and we're getting that much closer to our long term goals.

Birthday overview

So about two weeks on Thursday the 2nd was my 23rd birthday. The week for me started off that Monday when I received a package from my family!

These are my goodies from that! My cookie jar lid, money, swedish fish, peanut butter m&ms, sandals and earrings from paige, heart shaped ice tray, egg slicer, colorful bag clips, gum... and i think thats it??

A day later I got a package from my brothers family. They sent a super sweet watch made of safety pins and a cool book to fill with family history as we prepare to start our own family.

Tuesday we went Oreganos with Drew's family.

On the morning of my birthday I took Drew to the airport for his dental school interview in Cleveland. Once I got back and started getting ready I found this little bugger on my bed!

I was nice to it, I drowned it. haha.

after dealing with that I treated myself to a pedicure and some shopping. I think I might have even cleaned the house. And just chilled out a little bit. Then my dear friends Kelly and Bobbie invited me out to dinner with them to Chili's.

Overall, it was an alright birthday, besides the fact that my husband wasnt here.
