Year of the Baby

Image
This year should be known as the year of the baby. There are eight babies due this year on my Mother's side of the family. Lyndon's sister also had a baby in November and my best friend is having a baby in June. I have entered into the last stages of pregnancy. I am 29 weeks along. We are having a little girl! We are both really excited. We are going to name her Cossette Alexandria. My due is July 25 which also happens to be my birthday. I am hoping that she will come before then but if not it will be fun to share our birthdays together. 26 weeks and counting.  Overall pregnancy has been a good experience, minus December. She is a little mover. I do not know if that has any bearing on how active she will be when she can start walking but she loves to kick. This morning it felt like she was dancing around in there. The doctors have said that my progress looks great and she has a strong heart beat. Lyndon and I hare happy that she is strong and healthy.  

Law School

The application process has been long and waiting to hear back has taken even longer. However, decision time has come and Lyndon has committed to Columbia Law School. We are excited to move to New York in August.

The long winter has passed and now Lyndon and I are back together in Cambridge! Spring has never been so welcomed. We have both accomplished a lot since our last post. I went back to Provo after the Christmas holidays to finish my last semester at BYU. Now I have just a few more on line classes I need to finish before I am an official BYU graduate. It feels great to see the end in sight. This semester was hard but very enjoyable. My classes focused a lot on Russia and Eastern Europe. Very interesting area. I really enjoyed learning about an area I had never studied before. Lyndon finished his second term at Cambridge and is now in his final term working hard on his masters dissertation. Masters students only take two terms of classes and their last term focus on their dissertation. He says his Cambridge education has honed his analytical which will be really useful for law school. He also has been busy teaching Sunday School and Elders Quorum just about every week. The Cambridge
