Graduate school and the move!

So most of you know but for those who don't, we have moved. Christopher got into graduate school for physical therapy. So far he seems to really like it which is good. Obviously he didn't miss all the studying that comes with being in school. He is in a 3 year program and will become a doctor of physical therapy.

Originally his first choice for school was ISU but he was still #2 on the waiting list there when this school started. And during the first week of school he got a call from ISU saying they had a spot for him! This was great to know he got in but after lots of talking and weighing the good and bad of switching schools/moving again/etc he decided to stay where he was. He called back the school and said thanks but I've already begun at another university! However, I think if he got that call a week or two earlier he would have been happy to move back for it.

I am so proud of Christopher! He is doing so well and seems to be enjoying it here. I know he doesn't (neither do I) like all the hustle and bustle of things here in UT. But we live south enough of most of it and he is 2 miles from the school (almost as close as you can live to it) that he is doing well. We just kind of avoid in town Provo lol. The school itself is quite small which I think he really likes!

We are living in a 3 bed 2 bath apartment and it seems to be working out great! One of the rooms is Christopher's study/office/weight room. If we only had 2 rooms I think this would be much harder for him to concentrate on things!

As for the girls and me...we are doing well. So far at church the nursery is doing well for Haylee and watching out during snack time so she doesn't eat other kids food. We bring her snack every Sunday since she can't have theirs...poor girl. Hopefully she will grow out of this in a few years! Sacrament is still hard on her because she can't have the bread. We are hoping this week to talk to someone about if we bring some for her in a cup, and sit in the same spot that she would have some on the tray when it is blessed. Hopefully something will be worked out. She does not like being the only one who can't have it.

The girls have one friend right now and his name is Kimbel (sp). They love him! He is between the girls age and looks like he would fit right in to the family. He looks similar with fair skin and red hair! Such a cutie!
