Med school

Time for an update:

Medical School has officially started, and we are all slowly settling into our schedules. School kicked off with the White Coat Ceremony, where Ryley was given his first white coat, a stethoscope, and recited the Hippocratic Oath with the rest of his class. It was really neat being there with him, and my family was able to make it out for the ceremony. I am so proud of my amazing husband and all that he has accomplished so far! To me the White Coat Ceremony was kind of like a graduation from all of the pre-med stuff... prerequisites, the MCAT, applications, interviews and the like. Currently Ryley is buried in his anatomy book, as he starts dissecting his cadaver tomorrow. Before school hit we were lucky enough to fly out to Oregon for a week to spend time with family and friends. Logan was able to meet his Great Grandpa Enz, and we were able to go to Chad and Chelsey's wedding. It was a beautiful ceremony at ski bowl on Mt. Hood. Chelsey is such a sweet aunt... she bought Logan and Zoa the cutest outfits for the wedding! The reception was so much fun because I got to dance the night away with my two handsome boys. Right after we got back to Utah my family came to visit! We had so much fun with them! Now that all family is gone, and Ry is off to school, Logie and I are attempting to adjust to our quiet house. To cope we sing to the radio, watch movies, go to the park and the zoo, and cook a lot. I'm joining the MSA, which is a club for spouses of medical students. They have lots of activities-book club, cooking club, play groups, service activities, and more. Being a stay at home mom is actually a lot harder than I thought it would be, but I know that this is where I am supposed to be, and I absolutely love watching my little man grow up. Speaking of which, Logan now walks everywhere with a minimal amount of falling episodes, and can stand up without holding onto anything! He's getting to be such a big boy! He definitely misses his daddy during the day, and I get to hear about it whenever I'm doing something he doesn't like (changing his diaper for example). He yells.."Nananana. Dadadada!" Silly little man.

So handsome...
I know this picture is a little blurry, but at least you can see the way cute matching outfits Chad and Chelsey got for Logan and Zoa.

Yep, we still love each other a whole heck of a lot.

I love this picture. Logan thinks he's so funny when he's not doing what I want him to do...in this case, sitting still for the camera. And Zoa is being sweet, of course.

Logan loves the water, and actually moves his little arms and legs like he is swimming...
