Moving while you are 7 1/2 months pregnant is....intersting. Luckily for me, I was not very sick at all pregnant so we counted that as a huge blessing while we moved. All in all our move went very smooth and a week later Frank was in school and our lives in Provo were in full swing. Six weeks later on October 10, 2009 we were blessed with our sweet son Bruce Myles Wilkerson weighing in at 7lbs 13 oz, 21 inches long at 10:46am. We celebrated our 2nd anniversary in December of '09, a new semester began in January and we welcomed 2010. Now it is 2011 and as I look back at 2010 I can't believe it seems like so little happened! My time was focused on Myles and Frank's was focused on school. We built some great friendships in 2010 and said goodbye to three great families. In order of departure: Bryson and Whitney Mortensen, Dan and Kamila Johnston and Tommy, Kira, and Isaiah Jackson. Myles turned 1 in October 2010, my little sister Tiffany got married the end of October and then all the excitement began in November and hasn't stopped since!
In November, I got serious about my Mary Kay business and added two amazing women to my team; Sadie and Kendra. As soon as they joined my team I got scared and promptly stopped getting serious about my Mary Kay. In December Frank was bombarded by his finals AND the LSAT before the Christmas break. I was busy planning and preparing for the annual Mills family Christmas party my sister Liz and I were in charge of. So, Frank had his last test of the semester Thursday December 16th, we drove to my favorite place on earth, Bear Lake, the next day, ran the party through Sunday, drove to Nevada Monday to visit parents, drove an hour south of our house four days later on Christmas eve to my Dad and Step-mom's for Christmas and New Years. 
Myles and I spent the break sick. Frank and I celebrated our 3rd anniversary and I broke my radius in two different places snowboarding on New Year's Eve. Welcome 2011? Well, it got even better for us. Frank started the new semester of school then got his LSAT score back and decided he would like to take it again in February.
We celebrated Frank's 25th birthday and I spent the rest of January getting Myles and I well, but Myles just wasn't getting well.
Our first week of February was spent in the hospital as Myles battled Bronchiolitis and a partially collapsed lung :/ Two weeks after getting out of the hospital puts us at present day and Frank has taken the LSAT again, Myles and I have another virus AND Myles had an allergy reaction this week to some spoonfuls of peanut butter. His face was covered in hives, his poor eyes were swollen shut and his upper lip got red and swollen too. In conclusion, we would rather have an eventless year than one as exciting as the last three months have been for our family! I might add that Frank has and AMAZING immune system as he has avoided all 3 viruses Myles and I have gotten. Apparently lots of fruits and veggies really does work wonders because that is the only difference between Myles and I and Frank. I can't even express how excited I am for warm weather! I used to think winter was my least favorite season because of the cold and ice and bad weather. Now I know it is because winter has a whole new meaning when you and your one year old are sick for months! So, I am beyond ready for cold (burrrrr and sickness!) season to be over! I have been joking with Frank that I want to go to law school where it is warm year round.....not a joke anymore!!!!!! I am really excited for the rest of the month and on though. I have finally found what it takes to be organized as a mother, wife and business woman so I am once again ready to run with my Mary Kay business! Frank is really excited he won't have to take the LSAT again until June assuming he didn't ace it Saturday! :D With the kind of stress that test brings I hope there won't be another time he needs to take the LSAT!
