No news is . . . no news


Lest any of you think the reason we haven't been blogging is because we have a baby i wanted to set the record straight. Nope. I am two days overdue, more pregnant than i have ever been but still no real signs that lil' bean wants to come out.
So since there's nothing report about the baby i thought i'd take this chance to do a little bragging about my fabulous husband.
Seriously, I am so blessed to have him. Besides being just the nicest guy ever he has a broad spectrum of qualifications. Let me explain.
We got an exciting package in the mail last week. It came from BYU and was very heavy. It contained this -
four hard bound copies of a book by Nate. More specifically his dissertation. It was so cool to see his name embossed on a real live book. (If you are fortunate enough to live in Provo you should be able to check out a copy of it at the BYU library, if you want some light reading about Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium of....) Yep, that's right my husband is a bonified Dr. King.
But it doesn't stop there. Shortly after moving to Oklahoma Nate decided to join the ConocoPhillips technical rescue team. He thinks it sounds fun to climb down ropes into damaged buildings and put out fires, etc. Last month he attended fire school. He has his own "bunker gear" - fireman boots, overalls, coat, mask, gloves and helmet. They put out all kinds of large industrial fires. So yes he is also a Fireman. Oh, HOT!
To round it all off a few weeks ago after assembling the cradle and putting the bedding in he informed me that he has mastered the secret of tying the perfect bow. So apparently he is also part Martha Stewart.
A Doctor of Science
A Fireman
and Martha Stewart
How many girls can boast having that kind of sweetie? I am so lucky! Hope i didn't make you all too jealous but i really do have the best husband ever. Love you Nate!

I was thinking about you today, and thought this "I bet she hasn't blogged because she had her baby!" Haha, I hope your life is full of doughnuts these days, and hopefully he will make an appearance soon!
