Still Waiting...

I always seems to neglect my blog... yet I love reading all of my friends' and families' blogs and never keep up on mine. So here is the update on the Cook-Crew!

In May, Rob graduated from the U of A! Yippy! I am so proud of him and ALL of his hard work! He worked and went to school during his whole undergrad and he NEVER once complained... such a great guy! We are excited to be done with the the undergrad stuff, but we sure will miss UofA. It is one of those love-hate things. We will forever bleed red and blue!! In the Fall Rob will begin Optometry School at Midwestern University, in Glendale! Ever since we got married, we knew this day would come, but it seems unreal now that it is here. Seems like something we just always talked about. He worked so hard to get here and I couldn't be more proud of him! So at the end of the summer we will be packing up our stuff and heading up to school for the next four year. Sad... but it could have been A LOT further from home so 2 hours seems like NOTHING!!



Last month, we also decided that it was time to trade my car for a Mommy Mobile. I LOVE my car, so it wasn't one of those FUN car shopping experiences. Rob even bought the car without me ever seeing it.... talk about making me NERVOUS, but he did good and I do like it. I still think I will be super sad (maybe even get teary eyed) watching my car drive away though... so if anyone wants a Red Mustang that is in great shape let us know!



In baby news, we are down to 6 DAYS till the due date!!! Yes, less than a week. We (especially me) are so ready for this little guy to come! I finished teaching my first year of 1st grade (which was such a wonderful...and sometimes overwhelming experience... I will miss those 19 little guys) at the end of May with 20 days left till my due date! I had a long list of things that I needed to get done before the baby came so I thought the time would FLY! I was so WRONG though. This has been the slowest 20 days EVER! Unfortunately, I think this little guy likes it in his Mama's tummy and isn't too anxious to come out.... if only he knew how much more space he would have if he came out! I sure hope he changes his mind and comes SOON and I especially hope he doesn't go PAST his due date! He still is Baby No-Name Cook! I hate making decisions like this and Rob really wants to see him first, so it is the perfect excuse to put off picking a name EVEN more (however, Rob TOTALLY already has the name he wants picked out :)... he just wants to wait to see him, so I can't try to change his mind while we are waiting...haha)!! So hopefully in the next 6 days we will meet our handsome little boy and get to start loving him even more than we already do! In the mean time we will continue to play the waiting game and get overly excited with any and all signs of labor!
