Latest Happenings

We have been quite busy lately. I always thought that once the internship was over things would slow down, but that is definitely not the case. We have both been spending our free time working on the baby's room and studying (I will be taking the registered dietitian exam soon and Adam has to take a placement test for when he starts back up at UVU). We still try to have a little fun though when we get the chance.

For the fourth of July, we went to the Oakley rodeo (a tradition that we do every year) with Adam's family. We went up early to bbq at his aunt's house with the family and cousins and then spent the evening at the rodeo and watching fireworks. Of course I tried out a new dessert for the bbq and it was pretty good. I made something called a cheery crunch (I think). It was pretty much like a cherry crisp but had a layer on the bottom and the top so that you could cut it up into bars.


As far as an update on the baby...I am now 28 weeks along and getting bigger every day. The baby kicks like crazy and it can be quite distracting while I'm sitting in a meeting, but I love it none the less. Even though we have less than three months to go, it still feels like forever away. I'm sure the next month or so will fly by fast though.

We've been working hard on the baby's room. It was quite a task to clean out the office and finding a spot for everything that was in there, but once it was done it felt good to finally have things organized. We painted the room yellow and put together the crib and bedding. These pictures aren't the greatest, but it looks pretty cute.

We were going to build a changing table/dress, but ended up finding this antique changing table on KSL for a great price. We refinished it in green and it looks great in the room. My next project is to sew the drapes. The fabric for the drapes just arrived so hopefully I can finish them in the next few weeks. After that I just need to sew a slip cover for the club chair in the room, paint the standing picture frame and add the decorative touches.
