Our Newest Chapter

Well our time at BYU has come and gone and we are grateful for every moment of it!  AJ and I both graduated with our Bachelor's degrees August 11th and 12th and it felt so great!  Now we have moved on to the next Chapter of our life, which happens to be taking place in Missouri.  AJ got accepted into a University here and is doing some pre-med courses and studying for the MCAT.  He's looking at persuing a career in Psychiatry but we'll see what happens--we always seem to change our minds (e.g. I went through about 3 majors before I finally decided).  We are both on the hunt for jobs but I am not quite sure I'm ready to leave my baby and I don't think she's ready for that either.  I think I might just wait until we are all settled in at the house and baby girl gets a little older.
Speaking of the girly, she was sitting up today on her own (well, almost!--AJ had a blanket bunched up in her lap to help keep her up), she's also playing with her feet more, and cracking up at AJ when he gives her kisses in her neck fat rolls and sings Sesame Street's "Rubber Ducky."
My little sister leaves for the Windy City on Monday and we're all starting to get a little teary-eyed because she's the baby of the family.  We're excited for her and we know she'll do great! (We're also getting excited to go visit her and have already started planning our trip)
Sorry this post lacks any pictures or videos. They will come soon!  I just figured I would write a little since a friend so kindly reminded us that we have no good reason to not keep up with our blog.  I agree, so here I am! Enjoy!
