So, I feel like I dont have a ton of news this week.
Baby George was breach a week and a half ago. Last Wednesday he was diagonal- the doctor jokingly said he must be confused. At the Doctor's recommendation I'm doing acupuncture tomorrow... or rather some moxa treatment with 10 acupuncture needles to relax me for the moxa treatment. The doctor and his wife say that this one practice in town has a higher success rate of turning the baby around than 'manual aversion'- which the Dr can try if tomorrow doesnt work but I guess it's more painful than acupuncture.
Medicaid pulled through! One huge stress gone. This means the delivering a baby won't be so hard financially.
I'm still praying Jon ends up working at BYU-I starting January. Wednesday Jon got a phone call from them saying that they had only recieved one of his reference letters. So at least they like his application enough to follow through on that. When Jon applied online it asked for email addresses for references and said that they would send a form via email to the references. Well Jon got one of his references to email the application committee and when he talked to the third they said they had filled it out online. Brother Tibbs is in charge of the Institute here and has worked with Jon when Jon conducted the Institute choir and other things. Brother Tibbs called Idaho and although he didnt tell us details he said that they found his reference letter and had a really good conversation- which sounds promising.... if nothing else pulls through we might stay here since his job in Illinois wants to find him more classes to teach. We wouldnt stay permanently but just boost up his resume a little more to help us make it back west.
Today we had Stake Conference and I found it reassuring, that we've done our part in making the most of where we are, that in a spread out stake, I knew the new Stake President and one of his new counselors. Jon got a chance to briefly tell him what's been happening and to look for word from the First Presidency. I think he'll be good.
I think that's all the news I have. Still trying to organize things before the baby comes. :)
