looking forward to: This little girl to join us! It could be anytime!

At my dr's appointment this morning the dr was very surprised to see how far I've progressed in a week. He was even more surprised to hear that I haven't felt any contractions, but he thinks I must be having them at night for there to be that much progress. He said that she really could come anytime but he thinks it will be at least another week or more.

This past week has been really nice. My co-workers threw me a baby shower on Thursday and got me some things that we were still needing. They are all so wonderful! I am so grateful for my job and that I work with people that are so great. Saturday Tony and I attempted to go to Zions, but silly me...I forgot how busy it would be now that it's so nice and warm here. We ended up just eating and coming home. I finished the baby's room for the most part and I think it turned out nice. Super simple, but I like it.

Tony is at an interview right now for the city of Hurricane. It's a full time position and I really hope he gets it! We're kind of on hold right now with figuring out if we're moving and who will watch the baby when I go back to work. Once he knows for sure we'll be able to have a better idea what's going on. I've been praying a lot that he gets this job!
