Latest Happenings

Jeremy is officially a 4th year Dental Student, yeah! Only 10 more months of school then it is off to the real life, bitter sweet since I have loved being a dirt-poor-stay-at-home-student's wife. He is taking part 2 of the national dental boards tomorrow and Tuesday, then we have a couple weeks off. This year should be a little better than the other ones, since he only has one class for two weeks, then just clinic from there on out. We still don't know exactly where we are going to end up, but it is looking like Utah more and more every day. Any more than that we have no idea what we are going to do. Hopefully we will be able to go back home in December and check out a few places that we would like to live and practice. We can't believe it has come to that point, it seemed like we would never have to worry about those things, and now we are counting down the months till we leave the beautiful east coast.

I am getting bigger and bigger every day. So far the pregnancy has gone smoothly and hopefully that will keep up. People are constantly asking "When are you due?" and you know when they start asking that, you look like you are ready to pop. I look like I was due a month ago, but I still have a month to go. The name that we have pretty much agreed upon is Landon, but it could change in the next 4 weeks. I am just trying to survive this last month and not melt in the heat lately, it is miserable just walking out the door and being pregnant does not help the fact. I have to admit that I just read the Twilight series and am excited for the 4th book to come out. I always had to laugh at people that read them since they were about vampires, but I did give in and have spent the last week reading all 3 of them. I finished today and now my family will have their mom back, at least for the next couple weeks until the next one comes out. It has been fun to read a book again since I have not done it in months.

Coleman was ready for Kindergarten two months ago, he gets really bored and loves being around kids his same age. He is reading like crazy, he can pick up any book and rip off words like he has been reading for years. His new favorite book is "The Human Body" it is pretty much an anatomy book about the body and he loves to see the pictures of muscles, bones, the brain, etc. Maybe we have a future doctor in our hands? He is also into mailing pictures and letters to his friends and family. He loves to color pictures then put it in the mail. But he has not gotten any in return and is starting to notice, so if any of you out there want to take a minute and write Coleman a note and mail it the old fashioned way he would be ecstatic.

Ashlyn is being her same old self with so much personality. I don't know where she gets all her energy and then at the same time all her fury, she is out of control. We love her and her funny little personality. She will do anything Coleman is doing and is starting to repeat every word she hears. She loves to repeat prayers and just mumbles then says really loud at the end Christ, Amen. She loves babies and has to comment every time she sees one. She will randomly come up to my belly and pat it and say "baby Wandon." The other day she just came up to me and slapped my belly pretty hard and said something about baby Wandon. It made me nervous seeing a little foresight of things to come. She makes me laugh and want to pull my hair out at the same time. It is a good thing she is so dang cute.

Well sorry that was pretty long and boring, but that's our life. Below is a picture of Jeremy's latest tattoo on Ashlyn, she had gotten a sharpie and wrote all over her hands and arms and Jeremy thought he would add one more.
