Changes

So we are going to have a few changes in our lives here this next year. First of all...We are going to FLAGSTAFF! We didn't get into Las Vegas, but I guess the Lord needed us in Arizona. I am excited because the PT program is ranked 16th in the nation and the town is beautiful! Housing is going to be a bit expencive, where subsidized housing is over $650/month. I guess that is what loans are for and me working part time. and this brings me to my next crazy news....

I'll only be able to work part time because I am finally pregnant! TodayI am exactly 12 weeks. We are way excited and I have been able to be a little more excited since I got on medication to help my nausea. I'll tell you, it was pretty crazy running between rooms at work and running out ot patients' rooms to the bathroom. Hopefully I am not as lucky as me sister Kristin and still be sick at 6 months!! j/k Things are getting better and I do not have to take the medicine as often as before. Maybe I will actually follow the textbook and get feeling better in the 2nd trimester. And I am not as lucky as Lxi to not be showing or gaining weight yet. My body is so short and my uterus is already pushing my belly out. And I ate so much bread for the first few months that I have gained a couple pounds. But I guess that as long as I have a healthy baby, I don't care how much I show or weight I gain. My due date is Sept 27, so a few months after we move, so changing doctors will be interesting, but we will figure it out. Here is a picture when I was 10 and a half weeks along. the doctor took 3D pics for us and I still can't believe that this little person is inside of me moving and growing so fast!!

For now our plans are to stay in Rexburg for the summer and both work and save up what we can and then move in the end of July. I am excited for everything and it was good to have a good end to a bad couple weeks. Long story short, first we didn't get into UNLV, but that worked out, second, we just replaced the 3rd alternator in our Contour, (Kevin just finished and thinks it finally is fixed for good), and third, we are working to find a second engine for our Explorer to replace the one Lane (brother-in-law) just put in for us that went bad after we got back to Rexburg. I know trials are supposed to make you stronger, but it sure would be nice if everything didn't hit at once! Thanks heavens for Lane and Michelle's old Oldsmobile that has gotten me to work and Kevin to school! Hopefully all will work out soon!
