1. Our apartment is finally all put together. Everything is unpacked, cleaned, put away and decorated. It's so cute!!
2. Don't skimp on the price with shower curtains. It's better to go with a fabric outside and a plastic liner unless you want it attacking you all time.
3. Tornado warnings in MO are similar to KS: turn on your TV and see what's going on.
4. Having a forest in your backyard creates the perfect place for lightning to strike during a big storm. Loud and bright.
5. The guy we bought our couches from played with the STL Rams when they won the Superbowl. We weren't quick enough to think about asking to see his ring...
6. He invited us to church with his family. Maybe we can be friends and still see his ring?
7. There are some things that Utah people will never experience inside of Utah: 80% humidity while 80 degrees, torrential sheets of downpouring rain, thunder that shakes the house, lightning that is more like a strobe light, lightning that branches across the whole sky, big man-eating spiders that sit on your kitchen table, a musty smell every time you first walk into your apartment.
8. I'm 20 weeks and I've started feeling our baby move all the time. It's so fun to feel him wiggle and kick! But not so fun when he decides to sit on my bladder...

  1. Cute pictures! It looks like a really nice place. The 2 bathroom thing is REALLY nice. Although I beg to differ on one point- you can definitely feel your house shake from thunder up here in the mountains! Something about the altitude... 6900 feet just puts you right IN the clouds most of the time. Pretty crazy! Although I won't feel too bad about missing out on the humidity.

    Isn't it so cool once you start to feel the baby move! Right about 6-7 months is when he will really get going. Tysen kicked so much and so HARD that I was actually in pain from it- but loved every minute of it!

    I love that you can feel your little man now! How sweet! I remember the first time Mitch was able to feel our little guy--he was so fascinated and proud! :o) Thanks so much for posting pictures! :o)
