Clint and I went on a cruise to Mexico, including Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta. We had a great time! I did really well, being 4-ish months pregnant, and got over the boat rocking after the first night (and some dramamine!) Clint had a great time, his only frustration was with the annoying people who stop you and try to get you to buy stuff at the ports!
Christmas was great! We were able to spend time with our families, without worrying about trying to squeeze everything in before going back to Iowa! We found out in late December that we are expecting a little boy! We have yet to pick out a name, we are trying hard to settle on one though! Clint has been interning with Dr. Stockwell in SLC, and has really enjoyed his time there!
I celebrated my birthday in February - wow - 23 years old....er something like that! Three days after my birthday we set out for Iowa for Clint's graduation. We had to take a 10 hour detour up to Montana to look at some Chiropractic equipment, which we ended up buying for a swinging deal! All in all, our trip out there was about 2400 miles and our trip back was roughly 1300! That's a lot of miles for a 7-ish month pregnant lady!!! Despite everyone telling me it was going to be the worst, it actually wasn't too bad. We stopped about every 120 or so miles and I put on my coat and would circle the outside of the gas station, or walk down the road for 5-10 minutes to keep my circulation going!
Dr. Clint R Erickson graduated on February 27th!!! I'm so proud of him! He is so awesome! He graduated Cum Laude and received several awards! He received the Virgil Strang Philosophy Award which is given to one student in the graduating class who has been nominated by their peers and then selected through a faculty committee, who shows a deep and thorough understanding of the Chiropractic philosophy! We were both so happy and had been anticipating this day for the last 3 1/2 years! We are so excited to be moving forward and can't wait to get our non-student life going! We are both harboring a little bit of sadness though, since moving forward means you're leaving something behind! We are going to miss our friends that we have made in Davenport as well as our ward family and our little house! Despite my complaints about Iowa, I wouldn't have changed a thing (well, except for my old boss, who is the devil)!
On our way home via I-80, we saw 100's of thousands (literally) of Canadian Snow Geese! Apparently they are migrating back north! It was pretty cool. Clint couldn't help walking over to scare them up out of the water - I guess despite everything, boys will be boys! 
Ok, so here's a pregnant belly picture shortly before we left for Iowa. I was about 6 months along here! I don't take a lot of pictures of myself, but I know my mom has lots from our activities since November! I'll post some of those pics when she gets back in a couple weeks.
