Baby Shower

Last Saturday, March 28th, Morgan threw me a baby shower. It was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed spending time with everyone that came out here to our house even though it is out of the way and the weather was not the best. She also made this absolutely wonderful cake for me, and Baby. She made two different kinds. She made one of them a Dulce De Leche with a Carmel sauce and Carmel frosting. The other upon my request Strawberry, with strawberry jam, frosting and real strawberry's. It was so good! Thank you so much Morgan.


Totally by accident Morgan was able to assemble the cakes together so it says BOY!

I am not the best photogenic person out there so I am going to post the best looking pictures I can.

The first picture is a picture of these really cute Coverall's that John's friend Alise got us. The next is what we call a "Wubbie". It is just two squares of soft fleece fabric sown together with little ribbon's sown around the edges that are looped so you can hook things on it for the baby to play with on the floor. That was hand made by one of the ladies in my ward and a good friend to us. Then we have a picture of the cutest little Pj's. It has little Monkey's on it which just happens to be Mommy's (me) favorite animal. Morgan gave us that along with the next picture of her half finished baby blanket she is making for us. It has MY favorite colors in it and I can't wait to see the finished project. I will be sure to post pictures of it once she has finished it. The last picture is a picture of a Moby Wrap. I had no idea what it was until it was given to me. It basically is a sling to carry the baby in, but is bigger and has more use than the small ones that you see most women using. If you want to see what I mean go to this site: www.mobywrap.com. I received lots of great gifts, from diapers and blankets to clothes that I definitely need. THANK YOU to all that came and enjoyed this wonderful day with me.

Updated Prego Pics. etc.

Here are the last few weeks of me and my "Baby Belly". I did miss a week though.


And here is week 35. I missed my week 34 sorry everyone.


Here is week 36.


This is this weeks, week 37.
I feel a lot bigger than I look in these pictures. LOL


John and I are taking this Lamaze class for free through our hospital out here, and I don't know if it has helped or made me more scared to have this baby. They go through and explain all the pain and show videos of some women in labor and giving birth. Yesterday when we went they went over the Epidural and showed a video of a girl receiving one. I couldn't even watch the video. I almost walked out till it was over because just listening to the video and the other students in the class reactions made it almost unbearable for me.

They also covered c-sections and showed a 3D demonstration of what they do and that really freaked me out because I watched that one. I don't know if I could do that??

The teacher also covered being induced and some of the problems that occur when you are induced, which didn't make me want to have to be induced. They told us that it can be more painful to get induced than it would be if you went into labor naturally. I sure hope I can get into labor naturally, even though if I do get induced I will still take the epidural which hopefully will take of the pain, even though I really don't want that HUGE needle stuck into me. :/


Sorry if I have freaked anyone out with this...

John is bored!

John took my camera one night and took a few random pictures of himself. I thought they were funny and I told him I would post them on the blog to let people see how bored he was. He didn't seem to care and told me to go for it so here they are...

I LOVE HIM!!!!

A New Update...

Okay where do I start...? It has been a month since I updated last and sadly enough I can't remember most of anything that has happened.

I guess I will start with posting some more pictures of my 'Baby Bump'. I am now starting to see a difference in the size of my belly. It is sad that it has taken me this long to notice such a drastic change, but I guess it is just like when you haven't seen someone in a long time and you tell them how much they have changed, but they don't see it and neither do those who are around them all the time.

Now that He is getting big and there is not as much room in my belly for him to move around I am starting to miss Him kicking. He does still move around, but just not as much as He use too.

:(

Me at week 30. 10 more to go!

Me at week 31.

Me again (haha). 32 weeks.

Here is week 33. I thought I might try a different picture this time.

In a few weeks I am going to have Morgan take some that will look a lot better than this. Plus I will be a bit bigger.

Here is some pictures that most of you will think are quit interesting and wont really understand unless I put an explanation here with them. So here goes an attempt to explain my purpose in posting these. Mostly I am proud of myself for such an accomplishment.

These pictures are to show that you can break bad habits. :) Ever since I can remember I have always bite off my finger nails. I couldn't stand them and they drove me crazy. It Drove my Dad crazy that I would bite them. Now I am to the point where I don't bite them anymore! Yay me!!

I know they aren't that long and you can't really see them all to well, but they are longer than they have ever been.

Sorry my blog is not all that entertaining and exciting. I just never know what to talk about.

I AM A TOTAL BLONDE....

Okay I just realized something today and it makes me feel really stupid. I am turning 23 this year and not 22. For some odd reason this whole past year I have been telling people that I am only 21. I don't know how I didn't realize this before. I just aged a whole year in one day it seems like. Totally crazy! The really sad part about it all is that my cousin Chris had to have his birthday before it hit me. I was trying to figure out how he was older than me when I KNEW for a fact that he wasn't. Then all the sudden it HIT me... I am 22, and I have been since August of 2008. Thank you Chris for having a birthday, haha.
