One, Two, Buckle My Shoe...


I forgot to post that Gordon passed all his classes. There was one class he was worried about failing (anything below a 70% is failing in Pharmacy school). He did so well on the final that he raised his grade to a B. HAHA It was great! He only has one more semester of classroom study left and then he'll be out on rotations. It's crazy that we're getting this close to being finished. I'm not looking forward to the year apart when he's on rotations, though. Good thing I'll be in Utah so I can see family and friends. That'll help... but it's still not the same. I'll miss my Precious.

We went to Cheyenne to help Julie move today. Unfortunately we didn't get there until 10:00 and they had almost everything done already! Sorry, Julie. Her new place looks nice. I hope she gets along better with this roommate. Her last one didn't have quite the same moral qualities as she did.

While we were in Cheyenne we decided to get me some new shoes. I've been wearing this pair for about 10 years. The insides are worn all the way to the soles and they are backless... not a good pair of shoes for Laramie in the winter. Let's just say my feet have been cold for months.

Miranda isn't walking yet, but she is spending a lot more time up on her feet. We couldn't even get her to put weight on them before. Even the doctor tried and she would just lift up her legs into a sitting position in the air. It's funny. She still does it sometimes, but now she'll at least get up on her feet. We think she'll do the same thing she did with crawling. One day she'll decide she wants to and just start doing it perfectly... It's weird. She could do it all along but just didn't want to, and then BLAM!

Christmas Break

Well, we've been home for about a week and a half. I was able to get a couple more days off of my work so I could be with Candice when she had her baby. It was nice... well, nice to be there! HAHA It's always hard to see someone you love hurting. She did great, though. Parker was born Dec 1st at 8:13 AM (after a long night of labor). He sure had a set of lungs on him! I sent Gordon the video of him crying and told him to compare it to Miranda's. She was so quiet.

I just found out that my 10 year class reunion has set their date. May 29th! Yikes! That just cut off 3 months from what we thought it was going to be. It was originally going to be late summer/early fall. I hope we're moved by then. Gordon will be out of school, but will we have our apartment? I hope so! I have been looking forward to going, but now I'm nervous. Timber just told me that she probably can't make it since they moved it up. And April has already told me she isn't coming. I don't think I'll know anyone! Shame on me for not being more active in highschool and making friends! Arg! I think I'll still go... I guess I will as long as Gordon isn't on rotations yet. I don't wanna go COMPLETELY by myself since I won't know anyone there.

Well, I gotta get going. I have to take advantage of Miranda's nap time before it's over.
