Here's how our last month went:
Adam:
He defended his prospectus and it passed with just a few revisions!!
This means that he can keep going with the project he's been working on.
After making the recommended corrections, all that's left is finishing
his project and then defending it in April. He also started a new
semester! He is taking his last class required for his program and
project credit so hopefully that'll be easier. He is no longer the TA
for IHum 202 but instead he'll be working with IHum 240 (the BYU Online
class he helped create for his project). He also started teaching DigHT
215 again. Amidst all of that he also plans to look for full-time jobs
that he can start at the end of December :)

Ashley: I passed my skills assessment to become a certified Volunteer Babywearing Educator with
Babywearing International
(BWI)! This means that I have the authority as an educator in my local
chapter and if we move somewhere without a BWI chapter, I can start one
myself :) I also got an accidental early birthday present from Adam.
Accidental because he didn't realize Amazon would deliver it in its own
box rather than an Amazon box haha. But I got a sewing machine!! I'm
looking forward to all the projects I'll be able to do with it :)

Eli: is now one
year old!! He has three teeth now and learned to walk this month! He
took his first steps a couple weeks before his first birthday and now
walks all over the apartment. There have been quite a few rough days
this month due to him cutting his two front teeth (one of which he is
still working on xP). Other than that he is a pretty happy boy in
general. He always wants me to play with him which does make it
difficult to get things done around the house. But I'm trying to enjoy
it since he will only be this little right now

Special events this month
We
had a little party for his birthday at a nearby park :) we were able to
have a good amount of friends and family join us including a few of
Eli's little friends :) he very much enjoyed eating one of the cupcakes I
made and he LOVED all of the new toys he was given. He still plays with
them over his older toys haha. We are so blessed to be surrounded by a
few family members, some great friends, and an awesome ward (LDS church
congregation).
