New Polls & News

I was getting bored seeing the same poll names. We have always had this joke about creating funny names with our last name for our kids. So here are a few more that we have been thinking about. We still have always liked Olivia but I have decided to see what she looks like. It's weird to think that it does have an effect on the name but it does. So we'll take a few names to the hospital and see what happens! I went for an appointment last week and she said that I could go anytime. Tomorrow (my birthday) I go again to see if I am dialating at all. I didn't dialate with Taylor until I was about 6 hours into labor. My water broke at 2 am and then he was born that evening at 7:35. Crazy to think we're doing this all over again. We are so excited. Steve keeps asking me when she will come and I really have no idea. I thought I was having contractions early Monday morning but got up to go to the bathroom and got a cramp in my left leg. So it was just that I was dehydrated. I think that she will be a few days early or right on time.
Taylor was 2 days early(according to ultrasound) and then 6 days for the "real due date" (according to charts). They didn't really see any difference in actually changing the due date but he still came early. So we'll see how this one pans out. She has definitely been a different baby. I am running out of room fast and will attempt to take some photos. Steve thinks I am bigger than I was with Taylor. I just told him that he doesn't remember me being this huge.
There is also a hiring freeze in the Church right now. Since I was asked to play for the opera for the college we're having a hard time getting me on the payroll. They're (the administration) still trying to see if they can afford to pay me. They pay me quite a bit (at least $15/hr) so it adds up after all the practicing and performing. Hopefully they can decide soon so we can know what is going on. I have the director on my side, who is a good friend, and has been helping push it along but in the end he doesn't make the employment decisions. So pray for us.
It continues to be extremely windy in the great city of Rexburg. We're off to Lunch Bunch at the church. Taylor really needs to get out but you'll be blown over if you go outside! Here are a few of Taylor's two year photos.

Someone looks familiar!

Always need a goofy one...
