Update on Matt

Matt is currently studying to take the GRE to get into grad school. It's such a beastly test, I don't know how he studies for so long; seriously I'd get A.D.D. so bad if I were in his shoes! He's been working hard every night and some mornings to get ready to take it at the end of this month. He's so cute though, he coaches himself out loud while he studies, it makes me laugh so hard. He is getting so excited about being a new daddy. Every night before we go to bed he tells her night night and says he loves her. Aw, I'm so excited to see how great of a dad he'll be. Yesterday we both spoke in our Spanish Branch. We're not fluent in Espanol yet so it was really interesting to get up and speak in english and see so many confused faces. Now they know how we feel every week! ha ha no, we really love that branch and a lot of the members are bilingual anyway so it works out. They have translation each week, as well, so that makes it a lot easier! Matt seems to be picking up the language a lot faster since he knows portuguese, and I know a little bit from my 2 years of Espanol in highschool (but if anyone knows Mr. Sealy you'll understand why I didn't learn a lot!). Next week we're starting a spanish class at UVU so hopefully we'll get on our way to becoming more fluent. Adios Amigos!
Here's the hunk crackin the books

I love all the pictures! My nephew has a spanish class in school and he asked me if I knew any Spanish...I told him I should because I took 2 years of it, but NOPE I didn't learn a whole lot (I'm glad I am not the only one) I got your baby shower invitation yesterday, I was getting nervouse that you had forgotten me (thanks for not forgetting)! You are adorable as always!!
