So a lot has happened since I last posted.
Jake did NOT get the BYU job, instead he got a job here at
Vanderbilt. He is doing this advising
program for undergraduates which he only has to do for like 2 months out of the
year and then he gets to teach a class in the Spring semester and that's it. He could goof off for the entire time in
between and get paid for it. Of course
he would never do anything like that... It is basically a sweet set up AND we didn't
have to move all of our books! That
would have been a pain, reason enough to not want to move. He can renew up to two more years so we could
be here for another 3 years if he doesn't get a teaching position somewhere
else.
Oh, and another thing, Jake and I are gonna have a kid! We are pretty excited about it. I have been absolutely miserable, but I keep
telling myself that I wanted this. We
have an ultrasound scheduled for next Monday to find out if it is a boy or
girl. I personally think it's a boy, not
sure why, but I just do. Jake and I keep
joking that the poor kid is gonna come out looking like a bobble head doll,
nothing but feet and head.
The due date is Dec 8th, which is my birthday. I may just cross my legs for a couple days so
it can be born on 12-12-12! Yeah, we'll
see how that goes.
