baby update:)

So I'm officially 8 months pregnant now! How crazy is that? Just 8 more weeks and my little angel will be here. I'm so stinkin excited that it's crazy. We had a dr appointment on Thursday and he said that I'm growing fine and gaining enough weight (which has been an issue for me throughout this whole pregnancy) and that it seems as if she is doing well. She did kick him when he was measuring me though, which was kinda funny. We registered at walmart.com so that if we get something as a duplicate or we change our mind, we can return it in town instead of having to drive the 2 hours to Vegas or 2 1/2 to Flagstaff. Her room is painted, pink and brown with teddy bears, will post pics soon. It turned out really cute, now we're just working on decorations because the pink is just a little overwhelming. (Silly Matt decided to paint the ceiling too)

Last weekend (as in the first weekend in September that's not Labor Day) we flew up to Spokane for Mark Olson (Molson)'s wedding. It was so much fun and so great to see all those we did. I miss that crazy town and more that I knew it, I miss GREEN!! There is some here and we do have trees and grass in our yard, but it is so sparse in the rest of town that it makes me sad. But all in all it was a good trip, minus the 4 1/2 hour late planes that didn't get us home until midnight Monday evening. I want to go back now and hang out with good college friends and their hubbys/wives and those that aren't married too :). I want to see EVERYONE in one place again, let's just go back to college, okay? The place where I could run across campus to see my loved ones, instead of having to go across states, countries, and even the world to see them! Ahh, how life changes. Can you believe it's been two years since everyone graduated (well, minus me, but that's a technicality) and six since we lived in HobJob (which is no more :( sad) and met as freshmen? Wow, how fast and amazingly life has changed.

On the plus side of living in the desert, it's finally under 90 during the day and cool at night which is perfect weather for me. I just need some rain, and not the crazy monsoon stuff either. I also need my mommy, my Onca, my Clairb-forever friend, my ADD, my misc roomies, late night chats until we fall asleep talking, and Pizza Pipeline cinnamon stick thingys. :) But I live vicariously through blogs and myspace and facebook, so that does help a little. I just wish I could talk to you all more! Here's to happy lives, splendid Septembers, and phone calls that will happen soon :).

Molson got married? To whom?

Yay for the wee girl getting here soon!

Molson got married to a fabulous woman named Sarah Ben James (now Sarah Ben Olson). They are so fun together, just a great match. We all missed you, Sarah. And Miss Bianca, if you don't call by the time the air conditioning man leaves today (that'd be around 2ish I think) then I am calling you! :)

Gretchen, that's what we thought about the newborn poo, too. we were originally going to do the first month disposables, but we started using the cloth the day we came home and never really looked back. We haven't had a problem with the runniness, but it might be different for y'all.
