What's Been Up.

Yikes, I feel like it hasn't been that long since i've updated, yet i'm so behind!

We sent our Elder Cloward off on his mission on February 20th. It was a bitter-sweet day! We were sad to say goodbye for 2 years, but we are also SO proud of him. He was nothing but excited when we dropped him off! He was so eager to go and get to work. He hasn't been homesick one bit! From the few letters we've had so far, we can tell he is incredibly happy and just loving everything. Amazing how he just grooved right in to it. We sure love him. I am sure he is the most handsome missionary out there! One thing is for sure, New York had better get ready!

It's hard to have him gone, but there's no other place we'd rather have him be.

I did my last few hours at the good ol' Seagull Book tonight. That was also bitter-sweet! I've worked there since I graduated high school, so the thought that i'm not coming back was hard to comprehend! But it's time to move on in life! The next time I go back to work, it'll be using my license I got in Beauty School.

 My very pregnant self in front of my store....

 My sweet assistant manager made the darling little diaper-motorcycle, and my manager made the cute dinosaur blanket. I got a lot of love on my last day! I felt very spoiled.

Can't believe it's time to switch over from sales associate to mother! Am I ready? I guess as ready as i'll ever be. My family threw me a DARLING baby shower on the 2nd. The theme was pinwheels, all the decorations were SO cute.

We had a fun time! The shower was a HUGE help in getting ready for our baby boy!

Speaking of Baby.... Looks like (hopefully) we'll be parents on the 11th! My doctor gave the okay to induce me at 7am on March 11th. So.... yeah. That's in 3 days. Almost 2. SOOOO scary AND exciting! We are almost done with our "get ready for baby" checklist! Last things to do are give the house a good last cleaning before Sunday, and get Lorne all packed for the hospital. Then, hopefully, go on one last date as just us two... I'm looking forward to spending time with my sweet husband and making new memories with him. Here's to hoping everything runs smoothly on Monday.... wish me luck! Next time I post, i'll be posting as MOM! Maybe. Maybe i'll post before then.... but most likely i'll be MOM. :)

Hopefully the little guy is ready for his nervous/anxious/excited/eager parents! He'll have to be a trooper for sure. :)
