Prepping for baby

I cannot believe that I am due in just over 6 weeks!

I honestly thought pregnancy would drag out but it definitely has not and now I find myself nervous that I won't be ready before baby is here. But my own reservations aside, I am so excited to finally meet my little boy and hold him. I love guessing what his personality is (he already has so much) and I love picturing what he will look like. Anyone who has talked to me recently probably knows that I love talking about my baby and can find a way of fitting him into any conversation because I AM SO EXCITED.

I was so blessed to be able to have a baby shower here in Provo and one back home. People were so generous and our baby was soooooo spoiled. He is definitely going to have the cutest wardrobe. I love just looking at his little outfits and setting up all his little gadgets.

Since we are fortunately moving to a bigger apartment November 1, I haven't been able to do too much to set up for him and it's driving my nesting self nuts. We have so much stuff now that we definitely need the bigger apartment and it will be so nice for baby to have his own room.

Well I could go on but I'll leave it at that. We will for sure keep everyone updated as D-Day approaches:]

September

I really don't know what happened to September. It was here and then it was gone.

We kicked off September with Labor day weekend at the lake with my family. Despite a horrific boat malfunction, it was so fun to camp, boat, and just be with the family. It is so fun to have all of us together and it makes me sad that it is becoming rarer to have us all there. I forgot  how much I love camping, it was the first and only time we went this year and I'm sad that we didn't get to go more. However, it just makes me so excited for next summer and that we will be able to take our little baby on his first camping trip.

Right after labor day, school started. It definitely keeps me busy and I feel like I always have something to do but this is perhaps my favorite semester so far at BYU. I love my graphic design classes and pushing myself to always make my designs better. I love when I have a feeling about some element of design and my teachers agree with me. I definitely know that I am in the right major and feel so blessed that I was given this talent.

One of the best things about this semester has been watching how happy my husband is as he prepares to apply for the animation program. He is so talented and I am amazed at how quickly he picks up on things. I cannot wait to see what he creates in the future.
