Some of 2012 Summer

We have had a great summer, it went by too fast. We moved into our new apartment in the middle of July. At first I did not like it one bit, but once we got everything organized I like it more. There is no a/c which is torture on some days and no dishwasher. I am getting used to the no dishwasher thing, but sometimes I think wow it would be really nice to not have to wash all these. Melissa and her family came and visited a couple weeks ago. It was so good to see them all, I couldn't get off work as much as I would have liked sadly. I am so bad at taking pictures, I brought mine with me every time I saw them and didn't take a single picture! Steve got us a camera as our combined birthday present and it should be here any day! I'm sure I'll be better at taking pictures with a new camera... at least for awhile :) I am so sad that Steve starts law school so soon. His first class isn't until the 20th and he already has homework. The next three years will take some getting used to for sure.

Yesterday was my 26th birthday and it was so much fun. Steve definitely spoiled me and treated me to everything I asked for :) We woke up pretty early and Steve made me pancakes! The little one on the left was for baby "Bryce" (our baby's name changes daily until we finally decide on a name.)

We also went to the to the temple, I figured we won't be able to go as much with a baby and law school. After we went to eat at Cafe Rio with our free meal! We usually share when we go there, so I said we should get something extra like the soup. Steve thought it defeated the purpose of having a free meal, but it made perfect sense to me! Then we came home and Steve painted my toe nails, it is way too uncomfortable to do it myself now and has been driving me crazy. Steve picked up on the technique pretty easy and only went out of the lines a couple times (sorry for the ugly swollen feet).

Then we went to the Provo River Trail to walk around and take some pictures in a new birthday outfit. My mom got me some new maternity clothes for my birthday and I was so excited, I am really sick of only having a few outfits to choose from lol.

Then we went shopping for Steve and not me for once. I was so glad that he bought new jeans finally. He hates spending money on clothes even when all his jeans get holes in them. It was kinda cloudy, but I really wanted to go swimming one more time this summer especially since a bought a really cute maternity swim suit. We went to the Veterans Memorial Pool in Provo (also never been there before) and had a ton of fun. It was a little chilly, but we dove for pennies and just had fun together. I have no idea how i used to go swimming for hours and hours when I was a kid, we were there for an hour and it felt like forever. It was a really fun day and one of the best birthdays I can remember.

Now it is time for school and it will be awhile before we can have a full today to ourselves, but I am so excited for the baby to be here! Only two months from today now. I am getting into the sore back stage and not liking it so much. I just want to meet him already!
