30 Weeks!

          I am now 30 weeks.  I can't believe it.  Up till now everything has come so fast but now i am feeling like December is never going to get here.  Although we still have a lot to do.  I still need to get a crib and a few more things.  I am getting excited to meet our little guy.  I keep picturing what he might look like but i guess we won't know till we see him!  He moves a lot at night and sometimes he has the hiccups.  Its kinda cute but i don't think he like them that much.  He starts moving like crazy.  I feel like i am doing really good.  I am tired a lot of the time but other then that i am good.  I feel pretty lucky that I have had such a smooth pregnancy.  I here about other people and their experience and i am just like seriously i feel so bad for you.  I feel like my stomach is huge though.  It is starting to get in the  way of doing things.  Laundry is the hardest. It is getting so hard to reach down in the washer to get the clothes out.  but bending over is getting hard to. My stomach is just so big i feel like.  Anyways here is a picture.

Weeks: 30

25 Weeks!!

         I am now 25 weeks along. We had our 24 week appointment and everything is going good.  I just love hearing the baby's heart beat.  I am just so glad he is healthy.  I have been sewing a lot.  I actually made our crib bumper.  I was a little nervous when i started out but I did it, and I was so glad I did.  It turned out so cute.  Now I just need to buy the crib sheet. I think we have a name but I don't really want to post it just in case we change our mind, but we pretty much can only come up with one name that we like so I think that will end up being it.  I have not really had any cravings till just lately.  My mother in law made some brownies and normally i will eat one but I would never just make brownies, their just not my thing.  but ever since then I have made brownies twice.  I think i am over it now but Matt thought I had lost my mind because I don't even like chocolate so it made no since.  So I know I look huge, that's because i am.  I asked the doctor if i was gaining to much weight but he said I am right on track.

Weeks: 25
Weight Gain: 15 :(
Sleep: It is getting harder to get comfortable.  I am so big but our little guy turns into a wiggle monster!!!!
Belly Button: Its still an inny but its becoming more flattened out.
Maternity Clothes:  Oh yes!! They are so much more comfortable

Sadie

     

        So about a year ago we bought a dog, she is a chihuahua.  So we wanted a small dog so that's why we picked her.  As a puppy she was so small and so cute!  Well she did not stay small. She is probably 25+ pounds and she is as tall as a terrier.  I seriously don't know what happened.  She has the face of a Chihuahua but that's about it. The rest of her is anything but.  Most of the time she drives me crazy, she eats EVERYTHING, and i mean everything.  The other day she swallowed a whole sock.  If we leave her in side we are sure to come home to a mess. It really gets old. She even chewed a corner of our new couch so i had to order a new cushion. ugh i was so mad. She also sheds like crazy.  But we love her.
     I am mostly writing this post to remind my self how much i really do love her.  One morning when Matt and I got up we opened the door and she ran down stairs.  Matt was a little bit behind her and she started to freak out.  She was barking so loud, and she was growling.  I had never seen her do this so I knew something was wrong.  Matt runs down stairs and there was someone in our back yard.  Once he saw Matt he walked out.  So we thought maybe it was one of our neighbors that just opened the wrong gate.  (all our houses look the same from the back so it would not be that hard to do.)  Anyways so we just didn't think much of it.  Then i went over to one of my neighbors and we got talking and she tells me that people have been walking around at night in people's back yards.  No one knows who they are or what they are doing.  So the cops have been riding bikes in our parking lot and have been patrolling a lot over here since.  So now i was kinda freaked out.  Our door is always locked and at night i look out the window to make sure there is no one in our back yard.

      Then one night Brinlee (my little sister) was staying with us.  She was sleeping down stairs in our living room and Sadie stayed down here with her.  So we were all asleep and around 1 in the morning Matt and I both wake up about the same time and Sadie is going nuts.  We were up stairs with our door shut with a fan going (our house is hot!) and we were woken up by her so it was loud.  I ran down stairs because my first thought was oh no Brinlee.  I was so panicked that something was happening to her.  I get down stairs and Sadie is by the door barking, growling, and her hair is standing up on her back.  I was just like oh my gosh.  So I look out side and someone runs off and then a car speeds away.  It was so weird.  It could have been nothing but Sadie does not do that for no reason. Then I notice our dead Bolt is pushed out, and unscrewed.  I don't know how that works but It freaked me out.
    I am so glad we got a dog even though she is a little crazy.  I never thought she would be a good guard dog because she loves people.  but i was really proud of her.  So if i had to do it all again i would still get Sadie.

Half Way There!

           I am now over half way through my pregnancy!!! I really am starting to get anxious.  I feel a little overwhelmed because I keep thinking about all the stuff i have to do. At 18 Weeks we did find out that it was a boy!!! I was a little surprised because i thought for sure it was a girl, but I am very excited to have a boy.  I have bought a few little out fits and it just makes me more and more excited! We did have a little bit of a scare or problem the day after my ultra sound.  I was at work and all of a sudden i felt this horrible pain on my left side.  I could barley even stand up.  The I started bleeding (sorry if to much info). So my mother-in-law took me to the emergency room.  I just kept thinking what if there is something wrong with our little guy.  I was so so worried.  Thankfully they got there and the baby was fine! I was so relieved that it was something to do with me and not the baby.  After a series of the the worst test possible they found out that something had burst in my digestive track, and it would just heal on its own.  I was still in a lot of pain but after sitting on an IV for a few hours I was able to go home.  When we got to the hospital i just kept thinking "i wish Matt was here"  he was at work and hour a way.  so i told him to just stay because there was nothing he could do. I thought he stayed but an hour and half later he walked in my room.  I was so excited to see him. I just felt so much less stressed.  My doctor gave me some medicine to help stop that from happening again and I have felt so much better.  Right now I am 21 Weeks and serously i look huge.  My friend is having a baby a few weeks before me and she is not even half as big as me. I don't get it. I try to eat healthy i snack on apples and yogurt and things like that.  I never eat any icecream or anything like that.  Maybe i eat to much snacks, i am not sure but I don't mind for our little guy. (sorry i really didn't get ready for this picutures i just took them)

Weeks: 21

Weight Gain: 12

Gender: Boy!!!!!

Anthony's Wedding

     So last weekend Matt's brother Anthony got married in the Draper Temple.  I was so excited for him to get married because he is the oldest brother.  Matt and I were the first to get married on his side of the family.  I knew his brother Anthony would not mind getting married to, i think he was ready he just had not found the right one yet.  Also Matt's brother Nathan got married last year in El Salvador, So i think Anthony was feeling a little let down.  but anyways, Their wedding was gorgeous.  Nicole (the bride) was stunning, i just loved her dress.  They make such a cute couple too!! I took some pictures, I am a little nervous about them because i look huge. I have gained 10 pounds so far in my pregnancy, i am now 21 weeks. I feel like its a lot, which it is, but i guess that's something you have to sacrifice for a baby!

Plus 1

This December Matt and I will be welcoming a new addition to our family!! We are having a baby! Seriously I am so excited!! I was more nervous then excited till our second appointment but I can't wait.  I feel like its all coming so fast. I feel kind of guilty because so far i have had an easy pregnancy compared to other people.  I have had zero morning sickness or anything like that.  I was afraid of that because i am not a very good sick person.  Thankfully i have not been sick. I have mostly been tired, but that's getting better.  The only thing that I have had a hard time with is my back. but that's OK i am not complaining. Our due date is December 25th.  Its kinda funny it fell right on Christmas but its not very likely our baby will actually be due that day.  I took a picture of my stomach and it makes me look huge.  I don't think i am as big as it makes me look but it is cute!  

Weeks: 14

Weight Gain: +5

Heart Beat: 150 (maybe its a girl, we will see in 4 weeks!!)

Cravings: Nope not really, but some food just does not taste as good

SUU Graduation 2012

I finally graduated from SUU. I graduated with Bachelors in Criminal Justice with a Minor in Psychology.  I am so glad I am done with school!! I was not really excited for graduation because i saw it as no big deal.  My whole family came down to graduation and we had Costa Vida catered at my house so it ended up being a really fun day!  Matt was able to get Saturday off so he could watch me graduate!
