1. I cleaned out the freezer and threw away all of this frozen breast milk. I felt wasteful doing that but there's nothing else to use it for and no reason to transport it to Arizona next week.
2. I dyed my hair blonde. It was a shock at first but I'm getting used to it and I really like it. Thanks Sarah.
3. I worked my last shift as a nurse in Labor and Delivery at UVRMC. It was bitter sweet for me. I will miss the wonderful people with whom I worked. I will also miss the amazing opportunity I hd every day to witness the miracle of life. I won't miss working nights and being so tired during the day as I try to take care of my baby who wants to play and interact with me. My boss ordered this cake on my last night shift so all the nurses could enjoy it. How kind!!
This is Emily and me. We have been together from the begining. We went to nursing school together, we did our capstone semester in L&D together, then we were hired on at the same time. I will miss her greatly.
4. Grant had his last doctor's appointment today with Dr. Anderson whom we have loved as our pediatrician. I am so grateful for genuine care and concern that health care providers offer me and my loved ones. It makes such a difference. Our little guy is sliming down. Here are his stats at 8 months and 16 days old.
Weight: 19 pounds 8 ounces (40%)
Height: 28.56 inches (71%)
Head: 18.5 inches (93%)
Well I gotta go pack more stuff. We head to Arizona on Thursday. I can't believe it's almost here.

We are going to miss you so much! I hope everything goes smoothly with the move and that you enjoy this new change! Keep us updated!
We're so excited to have you head home. I can't wait to get acquainted with Grant. I'm so sad to have our last child leave BYU. We've had kids there for 15 years, now I don't know when we'll be back for a BYU brownie. You're on to new and bigger things!--mom
Good luck! We hated moving but we love being in a new place. I can't believe how cute Grant is getting. I'm sure Sarah is going to miss you guys so very very much. Have so much fun in AZ!
Maybree weighs exactly one more pound than Grant does and she is 18 months old! She is only in the 10% though. :) Glad he is a happy healthy little guy! I LOVE LOVE LOVE your blonde hair! It's so cute on you. Good luck with your move!
Love the blonde hair! So sad you are moving, but I hope your new place brings new adventures for you and your family. Let us know if you need anything.
Elizabeth, I like your hair. It looks really pretty! We are all so excited for your family to move down here! Norine
Moving is so much work, isn't it? That's so exciting though! I really miss Utah Valley too...are you planning on working at all in AZ? Anyway, good luck with everything! Oh, and your hair is cute, as always. :)
Okay, I am going to confess - after seeing all these going away parties kind of makes me sad. I threw my own - no lunch and no cake for sure. Guess you guys were loved more.
Have fun in AZ!
You look amazing. I would dye my hair blonde too, but I know I can't pull it off like you are. Hot. Mama.
PLEASE let me know if you need help moving in! I could come play with Grant, at least. I'll be sleeping with my phone...just in case.
Elizabeth-I thought I worked on your last night but obviously I didn't-I am so sorry I never got to say good-bye. We miss you already but I am happy for you and your new adventure. Good luck in Arizona!! ps...I love Grant's cowboy outfit.
Wow. Sounds like you've been busy. I guess you're already in Arizona by now or close. Hope you had a good trip.
