Too long of a post, I know...

I feel like I haven't blogged in forever even though it's really only been a couple of weeks. The last 2 weeks have been so crazy though. So here is the run down of the random stuff that's been happening. Chris started a new semester and although he could have graduated this semester we decided to wait. Another long story but to make it short....he had 4 job interviews the week that school started. He has been applying to heath care jobs for a little while now and of course all four interviews had to happen the first week of school. I guess it really was better because then he could move around his schedule easier than if he got a job in the middle of the semester. 2 of the jobs were in Provo and 2 in SLC. He had the 2 in SLC on Tuesday and Wednesday and the Provo ones were to be on Thursday and Friday. Ideally he wanted to work in Provo but at this point we really couldn't be picky. (PS Chris already has a job working for my Dad, but since he is going to PA school he needs health care experience) Anyway, the one on Tuesday he said went ok and the interview on Wednesday he said went great and they basically offered him the job on the spot. He got along really well with the boss and they really liked him during his group interview and then he had a personal interview. As he was driving back to Provo a HR person called and offered him the job. We were both so excited, but he also really wanted to interview with the jobs in Provo, but he didn't want to let this one pass by. So, my short story turned into long, but oh well. He took the job in SLC and started the next Monday. He goes to school in the morning and then straight to work until 6 and then fights the traffic home. He's taking some really difficult classes this semester but so far he has done really well. So last week, the first real week of school and work was less than desirable to say the least. I had a few melt downs, but somehow we are all alive this week. hehe. Ry was SOOO fussy, ALL day every day for the whole week. And he only wanted me! We finally figured out that he is getting another tooth, but also that he had an ear infection along with a nasty runny nose. We hardly slept all week, but I am happy to say that so far(it's on Tuesday, I know!) we are all doing better.
On a happier note, I have exciting news! First, I have to say that this past fast Sunday I tried to do a real 24hr fast and lets just say I only made it half way through. I got another migraine headache and thought I was going to puke. I got one this past summer and ended up in the ER, but this time I was able to take something and it went away within a few hours. So, I did a half fast and got whole blessings(adapted from Brian Reagan's "half game whole snow cone")I say that because I have truly felt so watched over the last few weeks. Funny how that works since I wanted to run away last week but as I prayed constantly, I felt so comforted. So... Chris got a job, we found my long lost wedding ring(lost it 8 months ago), found our mail key and my rx sunglasses, and we got called to teach the Marriage and Family class in our ward. I am so thankful that Heavenly Father is available 24/7 and that I can feel of his love when I am striving to do those things that I struggle with. He sees my efforts and makes sure that I know that he is proud of me. Oh, and the other exciting news is that we are moving to Centerville in May. It's probably kind of silly to be so excited, but I am excited to be there during the summer. Ry will be able to see his cousins more and he will have a yard to play in and my sisters dogs to tackle and maybe Chris will be able to spend some time with us as well! :)
Also, I've made a few new recipes that have been yummy, I started to read Hunger Games, we watched Julie and Julia, I've gone to the gym 5-6 days a week for the last 3 weeks and am trying to eat healthier, I have been to Costco waaaay too much, Chris has his first intramural basketball game this Friday, Ry fell asleep during the first hour of church in Chris' arms last week(miracle!), he really likes blueberries, new season of Project Runway started last week. I love that show. Paige a roo is getting married, went to her shower on Saturday, so fun to see everyone and Tera is having a baby! SOO exciting!
