We moved!

Here's a clue...there is ALOT of these where we live now:

That's right, we now live in Arizona!...Cactus and rocks everywhere!

We are so so excited for what is in store!

Sam got a new job with a company called Aptive. We are here in AZ for summer/fall (till October) doing summer sales, then heading to good ol' Utah where the company headquarters are.

We have been here for 2 weeks now and LOVING IT!

There is a green belt area behind our apartment that leads to a lake, that is great for taking Montee on walks. I love seeing all the palm trees and grass cause it makes me feel like I'm in CA still :)

I know it sounds totally crazy and your wondering why and how we are going to do it with a baby coming in a month and a 150 pound dog..

We decided to take the job/make the move for alot of reasons:
1. better pay/income
2. more affordable places to live
3. safer areas for me to be at home with the baby
4. I don't have to work and can be at home to raise the baby (Woo-hoo! stay-at-home-mom! the job I have always wanted to have!)
5. we still aren't too far away from California which makes it super easy to still see our all family and friends

Those reasons pretty much sum why we picked up and  moved out of California so fast. Haha! I just have to sit here and laugh because it is still so crazy for me to hear that we don't live in California anymore, its like totally going against everything we have always said. But when you start growing a family and "growing up" you realize what things in life you really want and what matters most. Your perspective on things changes in a whole different way.

As for me and updates on the pregnancy...I finally have a bump that can't be hidden from baggy T's and flowy dresses. Baby is here and making himself/herself known! 35 weeks in counting! I was able to find a new doctor not too far away from where we are living here in AZ and get all my records transferred over with the insurance (not so easily, but eventually I got it all taken care of...working with medical offices and medical insurance is a PAIN)

It feels SO GREAT to be in our own place again and have all my stuff back, I feel at home here. And I have come to see, its really not the fact that I have my home decor, plates, bowls, couches and bed back that I feel at home...its just being with Sam, and Montee in our own little nest that makes me feel happy and at home.
