Springy

Look what I found today....

Sprouts! All 4 of them! Haha. And you know what the best part is? I only planted the seeds last friday afternoon...so it hasn't even been a week yet! All I did was buy one of those handy dandy box/planter things and a pack or two of seeds. Then in the planter thing was these little things of compacted soil and when you add water to them they expand like so...
Then you add seeds, water them and cover them up.
Today Thor somehow got into it and pulled out one of the little soil pack thing-ma-jigs, luckily...he was careful with it and didn't break it open or anything so I was able to put it back in place unharmed, but I think I will move it somewhere safer.

Once the flowers get a little bigger I'll move them outside and hopefully they will grow up to look like this:

There are also a few poppy seeds mixed in there...but anyways, I can't wait until Spring actually get's here!

Also...Iam hoping that by the end of this week we will have finished getting our house put back together & I will have some before and after pictures...I'm so excited!

Trigs Face & Thorfy

I love how Trigger curls up like this...he kind of looks like a deer to us.

20 weeks

Here is a picture of what my stomach looks like at 20 weeks...I know there were a few who wanted to see.



I'm half way...I almost feel like I should be further along by now, but oh well...my doctor said the second half goes slower than the first so at least we'll have lots of time to get ready?

Needing a break...

So lately things have just been so busy around here...well not the last couple days--unless you count eating lots of Sour Patch Kids & watching Twilight over and over again...but up until that point we have been doing lots of house working... We are SO close to being done (with our current project). It basically only consists of painting our bedroom and then we can move EVERYTHING back to where it belongs and be somewhat back to normal, but we are SOO extremely sick of painting we are putting it off. But I will have lots of pictures to show you when we're done of our new carpet, walls, etc... until then here is a picture of me, Jon (& my shoes) from my cousins wedding last weekend.

It's a...

Well we had the ultrasound today and it definitely looks like it's a boy. They gave us a little bracelet that says, "It's A Boy" and Jon has been wearing it all day. I think he's just a little excited.


I finally had to give in and get a pair of maternity pants, thanks to my mom who bought my first outfit. I tried putting it off as long as possible...but I just couldn't stand walking around with my pants all the way unzipped. I have to say...I LOVE maternity pants...they feel soooooo good!


Here is a picture for your viewing pleasure (I look very big...bigger than I am because of the way my arm is):
