I'm back and now a J.D.

Wow. So a lot has happened since my last post. Robert and I graduated from law school. We received our grades yesterday and we both passed - so we are now officially Juris Doctors. We have also moved to Arizona. I was really sad to leave Provo (who would have thought those words would ever come out of my mouth). We had a wonderful apartment and an ever more wonderful ward and friends. I really felt at home in Utah for the first time. I also miss my parents and siblings. We are staying with my grandparents until we get a place of our own. Robert is studying for the bar in July, and I will take the bar in February. This way, one of us gets to be with John.

John is huge! He is definitely his father's son. He is long and while he is solid he is not a chub or fat. He cut one tooth last week and another one yesterday. He also sat-up by himself for the first time at the cabin while my parents were watching him. He is also crawling. Yes, he learned to crawl last week. This week his mission is to pull himself up on whatever he can. So far he has used me, Robert, the brick fireplace, the couch, the leather chair, and he tried, but failed, to use the wipes box. He's not supposed to be doing this yet he's barely six months old! He gets mad when we don't let him crawl or pull himself up in not-so-safe places.

Playing with his toys.


My mom (grandma) got him some bath fish. He loves them but has not yet figured out how to get them. He kept turning in a circle chasing the fish.


Trying to grab the fish.


We finally got him a high chair. He loves it.

Graduation. It was freezing and rained all day right up until graduation.

I'm being hooded and Robert is next in line.

Yay. Thanks for the great post! I don't know if it makes me feel better or worse seeing all the pictures....

Holy crap! AZ? I had no idea. You'll have to tell me which part. Although I'm guessing phoenix I mean really which part of the valley?

PS I've been in a horrid funk lately sorry for not keeping up much.
