It is the end of summer. School has started, Devon FINALLY was hired for a job, and I am 6 weeks away from being induced to have this baby.Summer went by so fast, I didn't even blink! Our summer, this year, was filled with lots of trips to Salt Lake. Devon interviewed for jobs, like crazy, all summer and was officially offered a job 2 weeks ago. We are so excited to transition from student life to normal life once again. He will start his job Sep. 15th in Chicago for 8 weeks of training and then will resume permanently in Salt Lake once his training is finished.
We have decided I will stay here, with the kids, while he finishes his training and move to Salt Lake once he is done. That way the I have his parents to help me with the kids and with the baby. Hopefully, I don't go into labor before my induction day!
Taylor and Luke are ecstatic to be back in school. It's hard to believe they are both gone all day now. Luke started 1st grade and Taylor is in 3rd. Luke is totally exhausted when he gets home, but loves art and PE and all that good stuff. He just wishes he didn't have to ride the bus home and that I would pick him up every day. Taylor is a happy 3rd grader and knows a lot of kids in her class this year, which helps! She happily watches over Luke at school. She is a little mother hen when it comes to taking care of her brothers and does this regardless of us asking her to.
Here I am, 8 months pregnant, packing up as much as I can before this baby arrives and still teaching Zumba 7 times a week. Zumba is my sanity and I love it! It is the most fun class to teach and the best way (in my opinion) to workout.
We were able to spend the weekend with my family 2 weeks ago. It's amazing how fast our family is growing and it is becoming more rare to have us all in one place at the same time. I love my family and love it when we can be together!
My blogging may be far and a few, but just know that I think of all my little blogging friends and family all of the time and love you all!

So nice to see you in the blog world once again. Congrats to you guys for a new job! just one question. How do you look so good pregnant?
I agree with Marie....you look fantastic. I need to take Zumba from you!! How did you get certified to teach Zumba anyway? What type of work will Devon be doing? Alycia is in Salt Lake. I miss you guys! You all look great. Can you believe Sarah is a senior? Good luck with the packing and the baby and Congrats to Devon on the job!!! Miss you!!
I'm so happy I finally added you to my google reader. I'm so happy Devin got a new job. Congrats! I'm so happy you're moving to SLC. Hopefully I can come to one of your zumba classes once you are up here. Good luck with the next little while. It was fun seeing you guys.
Yay! So happy to see a blog post up here. We've missed you.
I CANNOT believe you Zumba so preggers! You are a rock star.
Congrats on the job and graduation for Devan. That is so exciting, although I did get excited to see "Chicago" but then I kept reading and was slightly bummed to not get you in my neck of the woods.
And last, but not least, cute picture of your whole family!
I was super excited to see that you had posted something. Taylor & Luke so cute & glad to hear that they like school, it makes sending them off so much easier. I can not believe that you are already 8 months prego, wow time flies. (maybe not for you..he he) Congrats to Devon on getting a new job and moving to SL, maybe we can start planning some lunch/shopping trips.
Yay for school! And yay for Devon's job. That is so great. How fun that you'll live in SLC. I hope things go well with your pregnancy. Where do you guys want to live? I think you should live in Herriman. I mean, we've got it all...an In and Out, Target, Olive Garden, Walmart. What else could you need? And it's not far from down town. How exciting!! If you need help buying or even just renting, I know a great Realtor! haha Pat knows the SL area really well and would love to help you if you need it. Best of luck over the next few months.
Congrats on the job and moving to Salt Lake. Where in S.L. will you live? I can't wait to hear the particulars. So excited for Devon. I bet he is so glad to be done with school. I can't believe the baby is here so soon. EXCITING!!
Congrats to Devon on his new job! You look amazing. We are back in St. George and I'll be starting Zumba again next week...I'm so excited but sad you aren't the instructor :) It'll be fun to see how far apart our babies will be. I'm delivering in Cedar too.
Good to hear from you and all those wonderful updates! Having a job is always a blessing--and just in the nick of time, with new baby coming and all. Good luck!
Oh yeah, you are the WO-Man! Zumba-ing up until your due date! Your baby will probably come out be-boppin'. I wish I could take your class to work off those after baby pounds. :) And that's cool you're moving to Salt Lake. Next time I'm in town we'll have to get together!
Sounds like life is busy. You look amazing as always! Now you have decided to stay can you be my own personal trainer? :) Can't wait to hear about the baby. I am more than happy to hold him for a few hours while you get some rest...
I didn't realize you posted! The kids sure looked cute for their first day of school! I laugh when I think aobut Luke being "exhausted" at the end of the day and wishing he didn't have to take the bus!
Our picture turned out pretty good didn't it?! We should always use a tripod instead of a person....look at those kids smiles! Love you!
YAYAYAYAYAY!!! I'm still so excited that you'll be living close to me, I don't know what I'll do with myself! It's been like TEN years since we've lived close to each other. (San Diego/Brea doesn't count!) Love you, and can't wait to meet my little Diego. See you soon!
YAY to blogging again!!!! Hey did Taylor tell you she talked to us the other day? We were video chatting with Mom and Dad and she came in the room. It was so fun.
I'm so happy for you guys! Whoo hoo! Salt Lake here you come! What a looooong road. I can't wait for your baby too! So many exciting adventures, all at once. Good luck with everything-I'm sorry Devon's not there. Hopefully his parents will help a bit! Love you guys!
