Happening

Have I mentioned that last weekend my little brother got married? I was devastated not to be able to fly out for the wedding and miss out on all the fun. But here are the few first shots of the adorable couple (more to come)...

In other news, we've found a place to live in Chicago! I'll be honest, apartment-hunting from afar was a miserable process. It seemed like every place we'd get excited about would fall through because we weren't there to meet the landlord in person. Not to mention that Chicago is expensive and full of sketchy areas to avoid. In the end we got hooked up by an outgoing oral surgery intern and will be in the ground level of a two-flat townhome-of-sorts below another LDS oral surgery family. It's located in North Lakeview, not far from Wrigley Field and the shore (and a Trader Joes, Whole Foods, and Target, thank you). The place is definitely not glamourous. Let's just say it has some old Chicago charm. But we'll have parking, AC, a faux fireplace (maybe just staring at it will warm my toes), a washer and dryer, and an extra room for guests! What more could I ask for?

Oh, and tomorrow we're having a baby! Yes, this is really happening. While we're shocked she didn't come sooner, we manage to still feel totally unprepared. Induction is scheduled for 8 am. Wish us luck!

*I almost forgot- on Saturday Dustin took his last boards and is unofficially finished with dental school. (Clinic is open this week, but obviously he won't be there.) The timing couldn't be more perfect, really. In less than two weeks he'll be graduating a DDS.

I thought I'd share one last picture of this bump (I'm not sure what to call it, but let's be honest it's not just a bump anymore) I've grown, on my last day of pregnancy.
