Update

Well I am now three days over my due date and no sign of baby yet. My appointment is Wed and the Dr will do an ultrasound and make sure everything is ok. Then he will induce me either wed night or thursday morning. So we will inform everyone when the little guy decides he wants to be here. For my sake I hope earlier rather than later. :)

Some Corrections

Brian says we have plenty of clothing for this child. He really has no idea how much clothing is needed for a baby. Luckily my family is throwing me a baby shower Sat the 22nd, (hopefully I still am pregnant for it). Thanks for all the love and support from family and friends and we can't wait to introduce you to our little boy soon!

The Final Countdown!

So here we are now into the first few weeks of January.  Lerin is very pregnant, and ready to be done.  We are both so very excited to have our little boy join our lives and are looking forward to him being here with us.  We have spent the last few months gathering the necessities for raising a little boy.  We have the stroller, the crib, the sheets and bedding, the little blue security blanket (a la "Linus van Pelt"), and plenty of clothing for now and later--Many thanks to friends and family!! Lerin even has a gliding rocker that I got her as a present for our aniversary (We were looking for another dresser for the house, but found this great deal on the rocker, it was great!).  Just last week, we moved my desktop computer out of the baby's room and into the livingroom so that we have more space there and so I don't wake the baby.  Robert keeps trying to get me to disclose any of the names that we are considering, but so far, no luck...he(and you)'ll have to wait 'til we actually have a baby in our arms.

As it may have been rumored, I do have a job as an early morning janitor on campus.  It is a great job considering, but my one complaint is the early morning part--I don't like getting up at 3:30am.  The work is good and the crew I'm working with is fun and a good group.  This also gives me an opportunity to stay awake and prepare for the classes later that day.

I am now back into yet another semester here at BYU-Idaho in Rexburg.  Still studying biology with a neuroscience emphasis--and taking physiology, histology, professional school preparation, and advanced neuroscience. I have finished my generals and all of my requirements for my chemistry minor, so there's a big step forward, but I'm also trying to decide whether I'll be waiting to graduate in December of this year rather than April in order to get a few more credits and take a basic EMT course and certification.

We will keep you posted. Love you all and best wishes!
