TAGGED! (Thanks Coya!)

I was tagged by the beautiful Coya Reid to answer these 8 interesting questions and tag 8 more friends to do the same!

  • 1- What show do you secretly love to watch but wouldn't want anyone to know?
  • Hannah Montana... I don't know why but I watch it everytime I flip past it! (...I'm slightly embarrassed now...)
  • 2- Which of the five senses would you get rid of if you had to choose one?
  • Smell. I work in the dental field and between bad breath and vomit I could really pass on having to smell it everyday!
  • 3- Get into the third folder and go to the tenth picture and post it and tell us the story behind it. If you don't have ten pictures in that folder go to the next and count to the number you had left from counting the last one... does that make sense?
  • I went on an AWESOME Halloween date with Mitch Seamons and some other friends a few years ago. We went to a haunted house and then carved pumpkins! It was so much fun and I love looking through these pictures now and remembering what a fun guy Mitch was. RIP Mitch!

4-Who is your favorite family member in law style!!! :)
  • For the sake of my happy life... I am going to be lame and not pick a favorite. I value my head too much!
5-What are you most excited for this christmas?
  • I am most excited for my baby to be here and to get to experience our first Christmas together as a family!

6-If you had to choose between having 12+ kids or only being able to have one which would you choose?
  • 12 kids... I would rather have a house full of crazy kids than just one.

7- To get ready for halloween, name one of your biggest fears?
  • Natural disasters scare the living crap out of me!

8- If you only had a few words to describe me what would they be? :) hehe had to throw one in about me of course! (Coya)
  • One AWESOME vocalist! Thanks for the tag Coya, and keep up the posting! I love reading about your wonderful family!

Now its my turn to make up 8 questions and tag 8 people! Here I go...

Growing!

My belly has been doing A LOT of growing in the last few weeks! It has been so fun and crazy watching the changes that happen every day. I can feel tiny feet and little fists punching and kicking all over the place, and his bum and head push out the sides of my belly making it look slightly unnatural. Here are a few things I have experienced in my first few weeks of the third trimester.
1. HEARTBURN... oh mama! Tums have become my best friend!
2. Swelling... by the end of the night my toes look like puffy little marshmallows.
3. I can't eat very much and it feels like every meal I eat sits in my ribcage for hours before it moves south!
4. I can barely tie my own shoes.
5. I HATE dropping things! Everytime I drop something I seriously consider leaving it there and waiting until Logan gets home to pick it up for me... I promise I'm not lazy, I just hate the feeling of not being able to breathe when I bend over! All of you ladies out there who have been pregnant know what I'm talking about!
6. I love love love feeling my little man move inside of me!!!
7. I have to pee constantly... sorry if thats gross but it's true.
8. Finding a comfortable sleeping position = IMPOSSIBLE!
9. Logan loves my growing belly and it makes me feel better about getting so huge.
10. I'm getting really impatient! I can't wait for the baby to get here!!!

Here are a couple pictures of my belly at 30 weeks. I made Logan take a picture of my belly in 2 different outfits this weeks because I couldn't believe it was that big already!! The first picture was right after church and the other is later that afternoon... Is it just me or did it grow in just a couple hours!???

Separation anxiety



On wednesday my husband left me for a 3 day camping trip.

This camping trip was required for school which is fine

except...

I am home alone.

..and..

I am having some serious separation anxiety issues without Logan here.

I can't wait until he gets home tomorrow!

oh HAPPY DAY!

Bedding and Bellies

Good news!! Our spare bedroom is finally starting to look like a nursury! After months of searching we finally found a bedding set that we both agreed on and could afford. I am in L.O.V.E. with it! We have decided to do a jungle theme for our little man's nursury and if it weren't for Logan keeping me sane, I would be blowing our bank account on giraffes and monkeys and anything that looks jungle-ish to decorate! I'm so excited to see how cute he is going to look sleeping in his new bedtime-digs!
Ain't it cute?

And for the sake of keeping friends and family updated... here is a picture of my enlarging belly a week and a half ago at 26 weeks! I have been doing a lot of expanding since the last picture I posted of my belly at 22 weeks!

I have been feeling great and really enjoying this whole pregnancy thing! I don't get sick very often at all, but I get full REALLY fast. Logan has had to help me finish a lot of my meals lately, which is okay because it seems like his stomach is a bottomless pit! This baby has also started doing more than just gymanstics in my stomach.. he is now playing full on soccer games in my stomach at all hours of the day! It's a wonderful (but crazy) feeling and I cherish every little (and big) kick. This pregnancy has been such a blessing to us and we are so excited to be parents!!

2 years down... Eternity to go!

On Sunday Logan and I celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary! I can't believe I have already been married to this handsome man for 2 YEARS!!!

Logan and I celebrated by driving to Utah and spending a couple days together. It was WONDERFUL! We did a ton of shopping for ourselves and the baby, and spent some much needed time together. I love Logan so much and I am so excited to spend eternity with him!

Baby Business

Lots has been happening in the baby department since I last posted. As you all know we are having a baby BOY and we couldn't be happier! We have been doing a lot of shopping and preparing but we are still no where close to being ready for this little man to come out. Good thing we still have 3 1/2 months until he gets here!


Logan's dad surprised us with this beautiful crib and dresser set for an early baby gift... I am in love with how beautful they are!




We still haven't purchased a bedding set yet so we are using Logan's baby quilt his mom made for him until we find a set that we love (and can afford!).


My belly is GROWING and I need to do some serious shopping for a few new shirts that will fit my enlarging stomach and little better! At our 20 week ultrasound the baby was measuring about a week bigger than what my due date says so hopefully that means he will be surprising us a little earlier than we hope! My favorite thing that has happened lately is feeling my little boy doing gymnastics inside of me! Feeling him kick is the most wonderful feeling I have ever experienced. It makes all the other not so fun parts of pregnancy all worth it! Here is my belly at 22 weeks... I always feel like it looks a lot bigger than what the picture shows!

Thats all I have for now... I have to go pack because it is my 2 year wedding anniversary with my handsome husband this Sunday! We are off to Salt Lake City for a little vacation together! Adios!
