4 weeks away...

Well people, I'm finally four weeks away from my due date. Hopefully I will break whole going-past-your-due-date streak that my mother was always pretty into. :) I would love to have this baby on March 16. But, we'll see. I had an ultrasound a week and a half ago and Ezra is measuring up perfectly. So hopefully that will continue! I have been really blessed during this pregnancy and I am very grateful for that. Right now my main complaint is basically being uncomfortable 98% of the time... so it's all good.

In other news, Justin took the LSAT a few weeks ago and we are expecting to receive his score on March 1st. We hate waiting for it. So many plans we need to make and we just can't do anything until we know what he scored. But if he scores in a range which we think he will score at, we will most likely send an application to a private law school in Phoenix. They should offer him a scholarship (if he scores where we think he'll score) and we would be moving to Arizona to begin law school this fall! It would all be very sudden, I know, but the prospect of not having to wait a whole extra year before we go to law school is extremely tempting. Plus, I would get to live close to Mike & Val which would make me extremely happy. And everyone wins! Plus we could buy a house which would be super cheap because the market down there sucks right now, and basically everything would be perfect. I've been looking at houses online and have fallen in love with a few already. So now I am getting upset with myself because I know I am getting my hopes up. But these are very real possibilities and I want to be prepared for whatever may come. Plus, I can't help myself. :)

Not that I am dying to get out of Utah, by any means. We love it here, and we'd love to go to school here. But, if the price is right in Arizona, and if I would have a chance to be with my sister and her lovely family for 2 years before the Air Force ships them off to a distant land, sign me up!

So, now we wait. We wait for our baby to finally get here, and we wait to hear how some test is going to direct the course of the rest of our lives. Now we wait.
