We would like to announce that Steve got into Loma Linda Dental School!!!!!!!!! We are sooooo excited and happy that his 4 years of applying paid off!! Steve got a phone call from the dental school secretaries who were so excited to tell him that he is in (they are not suppose to call and tell anyone-- especially because the letters have not been mailed yet). The fact that Steve got to know them well and they liked Steve (who wouldn't?) really helped. It proves that it's who you know that helps in things like this. So our lease on our appartment ends Feb 13th so we are trying to find a place to live near loma linda. We are also packing, taking care of a newborn, Steve is working overtime, and I'm taking 9 credits of nursing courses online. Life is very busy! Life is great though-- we are so excited that we know what we will be doing with our lives for the next 4 years.

4 years? I thought dentristry was a 3 year program. Did you go house looking, what do ya know? Any further ideas as to if you will be renting or buying a house.??

She said 4 years of applying my dearest. Nothing about the length of the program. HOT DIGGITY DOG! Way to go Steve! I guess they said "We had better let him in or he'll continue to hound us until we do!" So....when you get the official letter (NEVER trust word of mouth) let us know when he starts, how long he'll be in school, Summers off?/Straight through? Details....I want details. Oh....and hug that cute little granddaughter for me.

I'm no longer "un-officially engaged". That's right. Your teasing and blunt hinting is old news. You all know the big news. No definite date yet, but it's looking like beginning to mid-July. *sigh* Long time. It actually works out great to do it then for when Katie's parents come home and Brigham's school stuff. I told Christa I'd put up pictures on here, but I realized I don't actually have many pictures. Mom and Dad have a few. These are a couple of pictures Pictures taken with my phone today. Better pictures coming, I'm sure.

Update on Me (if anybody cares) The Dr's office called yesterday and said they'd scheduled an appointment for discussing taking care of my thyroid through radiation. I said OK. Then, the Radiologist called me an hour later and said he wanted to do it over the phone, and give me the radiation treatment today. So I talked with him for quite a while. He says I have Graves disease (updated : I previously said White's disease), and highly recommended the radiation treatment, although there are a couple of other options. After weighing out the options, I've decided to go ahead and do the radiation treatment, because it doesn't completely kill the thyroid. It just severely hurts it. I'll be taking a good dose of Iodine-131 , which has the sideaffect of not being around my unborn baby for a while, which in turn means staying away from Erica. That won't be fun.
