NOT Moving!!!!

So I just thought I would let everyone know we are not moving back in September now! Clifford went on this amazing travel study with his art class to California and went on several different tours to different companies like Dreamworks, Sony, and art museums! He came home and realized how much he loves art and wants to pursue his career in art! He said if he doesn't at least try then he would hate himself for the rest of his life! So he decided to stay 2 extra semesters instead of graduating in July he won't graduate until next April and take a few more art classes to help him improve and so he can develop a portfolio! He will then apply at a bunch of places including Dreamworks and hopefully land a sweet job doing what he loves! I was bummed at first because I had my mind set on moving and getting out of Rexburg! I don't know if I can handle another winter here! haha I really am ok with it now because all I want is for my husband to be happy! We both feel good about the decision he has made which is a good sign that it's the right decision! I am kinda glad that I won't have to stress about moving 3 weeks after I have the baby now! What a relief! So I am sorry for getting all of your hopes up! haha Hopefully we will be coming to visit in April! That would be the last time we can probably come before the baby comes!

My Bday Present!!!

Clifford's mom gave us both money for our birthdays! I had a hard time trying to figure out what I wanted to get for myself! I didn't really want to go buy clothes because they won't fit me soon and I didn't want to go buy maternity clothes because I'm not that big yet so I was actually stumped! Normally if I wasn't pregnant I would just go buy clothes and be happy but shoes on the other hand are my other weakness! I love love love shoes! My theory is a girl can never have enough shoes! So we went to Utah this weekend and had a good time! We decided since Clifford didn't have school on Monday we would take advantage and get away for the weekend and have fun for our birthdays! We were at the mall and stopped at the Buckle to look at the shoes and I found not just one, or two, but 3 pairs I just had to buy! I am so excited about them so I decided I would blog about it! I am so excited about them and I want you all to see how cute they really are! I love them so tell me what you think! I can't really wear the flip flops yet but I figured since we are moving back to AZ I definately need to get back in flip flop mode and I thought these ones were adorable so I couldn't pass them up!

Arizona and Durango

I finally updating my blog from Christmas break!!! I know it's already February and I am just now putting them up! So here is some of the stuff we did while we were home! We also got to go to Durango for a couple days with my entire family so that was awesome we all got to go! That was probably the last trip in a long time that we will all be there since my nephews are starting to go on missions now! That is just crazy to me! My NEPHEWS are old enough to go on a mission! I just love my family and spending all the time I get to spend with them! They are great!

4 Corners!!! By the way any of you who haven't been to the 4 Corners, don't go! It's 3 bucks a person and you drive up to this concrete slab, walk up the stairs, and take a picture, and you're done! It was really super cold and windy which made it worse so maybe that's why too but really it's nothing special! Trust me! We were in and out of there within 5 minutes! haha

On the Polar Express in Durango, Colorado!!
My whole family took up one cart on the train!!

AZ HERE WE COME!!!

I just want everyone to know that we have decided to move back home! Yay! I am so excited! Clifford will graduate in July and I and I am due in August so we will be moving back in September! We thought we would just stay here and live because it's cheaper but then after thinking about it we decided there is more job opportunities for Clifford there! So he will work until he either gets accepted to PA school or Nursing school! Plus it's more exciting to live close to family and friends! You better be excited right now and we should all just throw a party! I can't wait! But September is still forever away so I just need to be patient and take it one step at a time! I think I'm more excited to move home that I am to have a baby right now! haha

POTTY TRAINING!!!

OK So I need some help with potty training! I am starting to potty train Corban and I need some advice on where to start and what to do! Especially those of you with boys! How did you do it? So lets say I start tomorrow what do I do?...Do I just start out the day by putting underwear on him or do I put pull ups on him? Which work best? I really need to get him trained before the baby comes or I will be sorry! He turns 3 in July so I think now is a perfect time anyway! I can use all the advice I can get so please let me know what works, what doesn't work, and all the things I need to do to get this ball rolling! Thanks in advance for the advice!

GREAT NEWS!!!

I am PREGNANT! I am 10 weeks now! I feel pretty good so far! I am not sick at all and with Corban I threw up the entire 9 months! Maybe this one is a girl! We shall see! I'm not getting my hopes up though so I have my mind set that it's gonna be another boy!

I am sorry I haven't put any new pics up in a while but they will be coming soon! I have a bunch from Christmas break and our trip to Durango so I will put them up soon! I promise! I hope you all are doing well! Happy Day!
