New Purchases

Everyday at school Amelia looks on KSL Classifieds for baby stuff instead of doing her homework. She gets on that site before checking her email or anything else on the internet, she is addicted. For the past week she has been saying that all she wants to do is buy baby stuff and get ready for the baby, which doesn't come for 10 more weeks. I finally gave in to her plea and let her buy a few things. She found this stroller and car seat here in Ogden for only $50. The couple had hardly used it, so it is in great condition. They bad side to it though is as we walked to the car to put it away we couldn't get it into the trunk, stupid small cars. So I guess if we have to take it somewhere it will get to ride in the back seat. The moment we got home Amelia started cleaning it up, she was so happy. We have also gotten a new car recently, we actually just made our first payment yesterday. We bought Kevin and Rhonda's cobalt, its an 2005 with 80000 miles so we hope that it will last a long time. We haven't thought of a name for her yet, but we will soon. We went with a car from family so that we didn't have to take out a loan from the bank. Its nice to have a car with a radio in it, Betsy's radio went out 2 years ago and I couldn't figure out what was wrong with it. The semester is almost over, only 3 more weeks. Amelia's school load has picked up but she is finding a way to get through it will little complaints. I thought my semester was going to be harder then it has been, my lowest grade is Trigonometry and its an 80. I am really close to A's in my other classes so lets pray I do well on my finals. My new job has been going pretty good, its allowed me a lot of time to do homework and prepare for my tests. My body is getting used to working graves, except now on my days off I cant sleep very good. Like last night I got up at 3:45 in the morning because I'm so used to being awake at that time.

She looked really cute the other day so I had to take a picture of her

Dont mess with security

So as Amelia mentioned in the last post I have a new job. I am working for Allied Barton Security, I am stationed at the local convergy's here in Ogden. I will be working full time, which I haven't done for almost two years. I work Friday,Saturday,Sunday,Monday nights, they had a day shift available but I wouldnt have been able to attend church so I went with nights. I have worked graveyards before so I don't think it will be to bad. It has been pretty easy so far, all I do it sit at the computer and watch the monitors, every now and then I have to make a badge for someone. I am allowed to do my homework during my shift, which will be a good way to pass the time. And that way when I am home I can spend time with my wife(and baby soon). Amelia hasn't been too fond of me working nights, she has to sleep all by herself. At least she'll have the baby to keep her company soon, I figure the baby would keep us up at night anyway so at least I wont have to deal with that.

Saturday before I had to go to work we went out to the movies for a little date. We saw Alvin and the chipmunks the squeakquel, we have been waiting forever for it to finally get to the cheap theater. We have been watching the movie trailer over and over in anticipation for it. It was so funny, we laughed through out the whole movie. If you haven't seen it, you need too.

28 Weeks

Only 2 1/2 more months until I'm due to have a baby! It's crazy to think it's so soon. But Paul and I are so excited! We are beginning to collect a few baby necessities. On Tuesday I went to my parent's house to touch up the crib we will be using (the same one I used when I was a baby). It's old, but works fine. Our doctor's appointments will now be every two weeks instead of every four, and before we know it, we'll have a baby here!





This week has been spring break for us, we had big plans to go camping in Moab, but Paul got a job this week and starts during the weekend, which is great news, but spoiled our camping plans. We still have had an enjoyable week off of school. Today we went on a hike where we only got lost for a short 1/2 hour, climbing up snow and a huge rock slide. We were looking for a waterfall but I guess it was gone or we just couldn't find it. and then to the mall for a quick shop, and then home for dinner, caramel popcorn and a movie.

This is Paul sliding down the snow during our hike. I took the movie because I really thought he would fall, but instead he even had an impressive jump during his ski.
