Been Awhile

Wow. It's been quite awhile since I last posted. Nothing has really changed lately. I got an e-mail from Linda asking me to write a letter to another birthmom who is struggling right now. I hope that what I had to say will touch her in some way. My mom talked to one of the ladies at LDSFS and gave her my number to call if they need someone to sit on a panel for them. I'm excited. One of the things I miss about living in Utah is being so involved with adoption presentations. Oh well.

Alex and I are starting to freak out a little about finishing paying for the wedding. Well, I guess I am the one who is freaking out more or less. I don't know where the time has gone. I feel like not that long ago we were looking at a year before our wedding date and now here we are creeping up on 3 1/2 months. I'm excited, anxious and I think a little nervous. Our situation is a little different than that of any other relationships I know. We're not in a typical mormon situation and not in a typical "of the world" situation. We live together, albeit in different rooms, but we don't have sex. Not many people I know that have gotten married have been in my shoes. We talked about it the other day and I know we'll be ok. There are just a lot of unknowns right now. I'm not sure where we'll live or if we're staying in Vegas. It's all good though. Things have been working out for us and I know we've been blessed so much already.

Just chillin

Well, it's Friday night and I'm sitting at home doing nothing. Alex decided to go fishing and I told him I was going to start planning my lesson for Sunday so that's why I didn't go. Well, that and I'm not a fan of fishing. I did have every intention of starting to plan my lesson however, I haven't even opened the book. Oh well. There is always tomorrow.

I'm so excited for the coming week. Cindy, Emjae and I are going up to Utah and I can't wait. Well, I'm not so much looking forward to the drive, I always hate the drive but I'm excited to see people. Erik will get to see Emjae for the first time. Speaking of Emjae, I'm curious to see how she'll do in the car for that long. I'm sure she'll sleep for most of it and I'm sure we'll have to stop at least once for her to eat. No biggie.

I have some wedding things to take care of and hope that my mind will be put at ease. I need to meet with Mike Montgomery to look at his portfolio. I think that Alex and I might go with him for our photography but I want to see some of his recent work first. I've also set up an appointment to meet with Leslie at The Point. I have some questions to ask them and our table arrangements to go over. I'm wondering if they have anything as far as food for kids go. They're not going to eat all the food on a regular plate, most of the kids that will be there are little kids.
Hopefully, they will have something to offer.

I got an e-mail from Roxanne tonight, she is officially engaged. Her and Chris are getting married October 11th, almost a month before Alex and I. Alex isn't so happy about that but it's because he's a bit jealous. Oh well our turn will come soon enough. Less than 5 months now. WAHOO!!
