Holy Cow. Where do I even begin?!! Let me just catch you up on what has happened...and what is going on! Michael graduated from Medical School!!! We are so proud of you Mike! What a HUGE accomplishment. You are awesome and you're going to be a WONDERFUL doctor!
So, we moved up to Utah and lived in my Grandparent's basement while we found a place to live. We bought a house in Kaysville (that's where I grew up!). The way it all happened I know without a doubt that the Lord had a hand in it. So we are all moved, but not quite settled. I am having a hard time getting settled because I have been SOOOOO tired...which leads me to my next bit of news...
I am 3 1/2 months pregnant. This was a TOTAL surprise! I'm excited, but also a bit nervous after what happened with the birth of Samantha. But, obviously, I am supposed to be pregnant, and it just shows us that the Lord is always in charge!
Mike started residency at the University of Utah Hospital and it is a killer! Last week alone he worked close to 130 hours!!! I feel so bad for him. He gets up around 3:30 or 4:00 every day and doesn't get home until 7:00 or so. He is such a hard worker, and a wonderful doctor. Way to go Mike...you're amazing. So I feel like a single parent again, but I just keep telling myself that it can't always be like this! (right?!!).
Well, I am happy to be back with friends and family. I miss my friends in Nevada, but it is nice to feel the love and support from friends and family back home. So, thanks again to everyone!

Ya!!! Congratulations on the pregnancy! I am so excited for you and a little jealous! Your house is darling. I want to come see it so bad. I am so sad we kept missing each other when I was in Utah. I really wanted to try to come see you. Hopefully next time it will work out. I hope they don't work Mike to death and that you get to spend some time with him. We miss you like crazy. Things just aren't the same without you. We went and got dessert the other night and I was home by 10:00...it just was not right. Hopefully I will talk to you soon!
Wow, what a great new house. That is not a "I'm a Poor Resident" looking house-it looks fabulous! Also, congrats on the pregnancy and to Mike for Graduating. I totally know how hard it is and all the sacrifice. I hope you are feeling well, 3 kids is great (and crazy), but you will love it.

Kara- hey that was so fun to see you guys at Cherry Hill. That is so cool tht you will be in Kaysville since we're there all the time. Maybe we really can get together occasionally. So yeah, I'm prego too. Didn't say anything before because I was having some problems and wasn't sure things were going to pan out, but I am hoping we are in the clear now. So that's cool we'll be having babies close to the same time. Congratulations! Good luck to Mike and you too with the residency stuff. I can't wait! Jk.
Congrats!!! I am so excited for your cute family. We sure missed you at the reunion this weekend. I hope you are feeling better I would love to come and see you guys sometime. Your home is beautiful!
Congrats!! Everthing is so exciting! Happy graduation and their is nothing like putting the added bonus of pregnancy while moving! It just wipes you out!
Welcome back to the blogging world! I am so glad your all settled in and ps...your house is gorgeous!! I am so jealous that you are in Utah, I want to be there. Congrats on baby #3, thats so exciting!!
Kara! I am glad you are back to the bloggin world! Congrats on Number 3! I have to say I think #3 is the easiest! You are a trooper with Mike's work schedule. Ian does some simular hours and being a single parent is no fun! Hang in there, and no it can't be like this forever!
