Fall Once Again

So, I know it has been a while and I am sorry for that. Our late summer schedule has been booked. We have been getting ready for Eric to go back to school and for the baby. The biggest thing has been that Eric's sister, Monique, was married in the Bountiful Temple on August 14th. We had the great opportunity to be there in the temple with her. I have to say that is was very enjoyable to watch someone else has happy has we were a little over a year ago and also to think back to that day.

Now we are just trying to get back into the sing of school along with work and trying to find another place to live. Mackenzie is doing great. She is a very strong young lady already and is starting to kick my computer off my stomach when I type while laying down. Also she getting really excited with certain hymns and also when she hears the voices of certain general authorities. I know this sound weird or surreal but I am not kidding. She was very calm and quiet Sunday until President Monson spoke at the temple dedication. Also I have decided she is either a future gymnast or dancer because she is so busy all the time.

Eric is loving he classes and as luck, or the Lord would have it, our summer job was perfect for his field. I am enjoying looking for another job and taking a couple of institute classes. I am really excited to be a mom but I am also enjoying all the quality time that Eric and I are getting right now. Well that is all for now I hope you all are doing well in your homes.

I will leave with a warning for any of you in the Salt Lake area my mother has a new car. Yes, she finally got ride of the van. It is a little red Toyota corolla. She loves it but we are all worried that her need for speed might come back.

Update

So, here is what is happening with the Winslow clan. First, the baby's corner of our bedroom and coming together. We are still in our one bedroom apartment and really don't mind. Right now we are looking for a better place along with better paying jobs. Also Eric is getting ready to start school, which I am excited for too. Mostly because he is like a kid at Christmas. I know he will be happy with the classes he is taking and is going to continue working part-time at the park. I have applied to start back at the U in the spring to work on a second BA in Medicine and then will also try to finish my MA, next fall. Other than that is has been pretty quiet, well except for Mackenzie making herself known and trying to get mom to behave. You ask for help when I can't reach something instead of trying to do it by myself. There is one more thing. I got a new calling, I am officially the Lakeridge 6th ward's Historian. Now is that not a perfect calling for me or what? In closing it is time for a funny story.

Friday evening. my parents invited Eric and I to go with them to the Mormon Tabernacle choir concert. It was great and you know what even Mackenzie got into it. The next to last song they sang was the Battle Hymn of The Republic and wouldn't you know it, she got excited she started kicking me in sync with the music. I am not kidding. It was a little uncomfortable but also funny to realize that our daughter already as a liking for good uplifting music. Well all I can say is I can't wait until she get here and we can get to know more about her personality. Hope you are all doing well. More later.
