2 New Announcements

1.  My pregnancy countdown's been on my blog for awhile, but I never officially posted that "BABY #3 is COMING!"  We're super excited and expect our new arrival the end of January.  I'm currently around 20 weeks and we'll have our ultrasound in the next week or two, then we'll know for sure, hopefully, what the baby will be.  It's feeling like a little girl!  The kids are excited and every now and then they rub my belly and tell the baby, "Hi baby.  I love you."  It's great to see their excitement! 

2.  We're currently in Idaho Falls for the next little while.  The kids are soooooo happy to be so close to cousins again.  They love it.  I love being back for Sunday dinners, hanging with my mom, sister, and sister-in-law.  Chad took off to California the end of August for a two month internship with a chiropractor who treated Chad while in school and has been so helpful in getting work opportunities.  The internship will give Chad some experience needed in the techniques he's chosen to practice that he didn't have a chance in school to really learn and practice.  He's is loving it so far, and truly having a great experience. 

Although we're still not settled in our own place, or have a stable job, we feel truly blessed.  We've been guided these last several months through interviews and job opportunities, and although it's been highly stressful, we know we are on the right path.  It's so nice to be settled for the next little while, have some routines, and the kids especially know what to expect.  We're no longer struggling with going to primary  because its the same one every week, and nursery is getting easier.  We have the most amazing family and couldn't be where we are without them.  We love them!  We know we will pay it forward one day and hopefully pay it back!  Faith is tested and tried and truly the best thing to do is remain faithful, close to the spirit, pray often and attend the temple, not to mention a positive outlook!!!
