I am officially an aunt... again. :) Carter Brian Thornock was born March 27, 2009. He is the sweetest little baby, and so cuddly. I love getting to hold the little guy. The day that he was born, I headed straight over to the hospital to meet him. Mom was in town that week as well, so I got to spend some time with her while she was here. Carter is adorable and doing very well. Rosie is experiencing life as a full time stay at home Mom with 2 children, one wreaking havoc, at home. :)
Here is a picture of the little guy. And he was little...
I went up to Rexburg for a weekend in March to have one last hurrah with Jamie before she decided to get married. Who does that anyway?? Pah! :):) It was a lot of fun though. We had girl time, and shopping, and saturday night was a full on giggle fest after we saw "Confessions from a Shopaholic". Hilarious!!! It was so good to be able to spend some time with her before the big day, and just enjoy being best friends, just the two of us, one more time. That will probably be one of my favorite memories with her now. She is so amazing and I have been so blessed to have her as my friend for the last 10 years. Now I know she isn't dead, and it isn't as if I am never going to see her again. But things will be different now that she is married. I am very happy for her. She looked so beautiful and happy at her wedding.
She got married last weekend. I flew home, for a very fast trip, so that I could be at her wedding and reception. It was beautiful and I could tell that the two of them were happy and excited. Here are some pictures from the wedding...
She is gorgeous!!!
Best Friends!As for the dating scene, David and I are still dating, and it is wonderful. He is an incredible young man and I feel so lucky to have him in my life. He met my mom while she was here, and mom says that she thinks he is great. He will meet daddy at the end of May, and I will meet his mother when she comes down about the same time as my Dad. I am kind of nervous about it, but excited too. I love every minute that I get to spend with David, and there just aren't enough minutes to go around.
Finals are going on this week. I have two left, and a paper. I feel some added pressure to do very well on my marketing final, because I am going to be my professor's Research Assistant/ TA. I am very excited about that opportunity, but feel the weight of needing to do well on the big test tomorrow. Hopefully I can pull it off. He has also posed the option of getting a PhD at me. That was something I had never considered before, and so when he mentioned the idea it threw me for a loop. I feel very complimented that he suggested it, especially a possible opportunity at Carnegie Mellon to get the degree. I have to decide if it is something I really want. Sort of adjust my entire stance on education after BYU. We'll see. I don't think I can make a decision until after I start being a research assistant this spring. Stay tuned for more on that front.
Overall, life is good. It changes quickly, but it is good and I am excited for the change. Plus, I am moving into a condo for spring/summer with my own room and a washer/dryer!!! Yay!!!
