Way too much has happend in the last 2 weeks!

Since the last post, we have moved into a NEW APARTMENT: Mesa Verde. It is right across from Peter's work. We are on a first floor, right in front of the pool and next to the Offices/Gym/Mail areas. We still have a lot of organizing to do but I am super excited to play Martha Stewart with the help of Target.

Last weekend was labor day weekend.We started off the weekend by going to Town Lake for a nice stroll around the park. After doing a little exercise, we went to Mesa Verde to sign papers for the new Lease. That afternoon we caught the 1st UF football game of the season where the gators obliterated some team 62-3...

Sunday we visited the Alamo with some of Peter's friends from work. The Alamo is in San Antonio, about 2 hours away. It was definitely a lot different than we expected! It was interesting to see how celebrated the loss has been throughout the years.

On Labor day we got up early to Volunteer at the Austin Triathlon in Downtown Austin. It was very exciting to see all racers but part of me just wanted to get out there and run! Being on the cheering/support side of triathlons and races in general makes you appreciate racing SO MUCH MORE! At our water stop, there was another pregnant lady. She was about 8 1/2 months and looked great. I got to talk with her about healthy tips for pregnancy. She suggested I look into doing some classes, Bradley Method, with Peter to prepare for delivery.

Last week was pretty busy for me with tutoring appointments. As of right now, I have 3 students, 2 of which i meet with twice a week. For now, this is tutoring job is working out great because it flexible and gives me the freedom to do other things that I want to do, like walk/jog around Town Lake.

Friday was a BIG DAY, Peter and I went to the doctor for the first time together! I think we picked our doctor here in Austin: Dr. Eng. She delivers in St. David's Hospital. At the appointment, Peter got to see the ultrasound of the baby =). As usual, he was moving around like crazy in there.

After the Doctor's appointment, the official speed packing began! The UHaul was rented for Friday-Saturday evenings. With the help of Ashish and Travis, we were able to get most of our stuff moved. Coincidental, both of them were also moving this weekend, so Peter helped them move into their place this weekend as well.
As if emptying 3 apartments and filling 1 apartment and 1 house wasn't enough, the three crazy boys decided to go run a 10k in San Marcos at 8am on Saturday morning. It was a beautiful day for a run...NOT! It was pouring! Once again, I was spectating...not FUN, especially in the rain.

Yesterday, Sunday, we finished cleaning out Peter's Monte Vista Apartment. At 6pm Peter handed over his keys...and said good-bye to Monte Vista.
