4th Fireworks

Well 4th of July weekend was much needed around our house. Jon had a 3 day weekend and we just got to take it kind of easy and have fun.

Saturday morning we went to a neighborhood breakfast with my grandparents--they made dutch oven breakfast stuff and it was good! We BBQ'd later that day with some friends & then we went to my grandparents to watch the fireworks.

Also, thank goodness Jillian from The Bachelorette finally got rid of Wes.

Happenings

Check it---my belly sticks straight out...


It looks so weird to me. I hate when I'm walking around and catch the reflection of my profile...it totally catches me off guard. I had a dream a little girl asked if I had a ball under my shirt then later during that same dream I dreamt that my doctor called Jon and told him he thought I was a hypochondriac and that he wanted Jon to get me help. Hahahahaha. Oh man..pregnancy...

So I decided to go ahead and buy a bedding set for da baby. I'm so glad I decided this...I got it in the mail the other day and it's even cuter in person than the picture online...plus it required no work on my part. BUT I did get a sewing machine & I am so excited about it. I'm going to make some curtains for his room & a pillow for the glider...I can't wait to post pictures when I'm all done.

Also, I have been working a lot more lately--which is a good thing! We got the approval at work to work more hours and it has been so nice!

Jon has been extra good about running and mountain biking lately. He is going to do a duathlon later this summer which will consist of a 40K mountain bike & 10K run...he's really excited...I am too!

Well I think that about sums it all up...

I am THE WORST grocery shopper EVER

Just thought you should know.

Does anyone have any REALLY easy recipes they want to share with me?

30 Weeks

Okay I'm really starting to get big now...

Sorry I really stink at updating lately. I blame it on pregnancy...lately I feel like I can't do anything...haha. I have never gotten into mountain biking before, but now that I'm pregnant and I can't--I'm dying to go ride with Jon. Go figure.

I got to go see my Mom and sister in SLC last Saturday...unfortunately we didn't get to do anything fun because my kidney stones picked that exact day to start acting up again.

I have been trying to decide on baby stuff lately--colors, furniture, etc... I really can not find much of anything I'm crazy about as far as crib bedding goes so I am debating making something..? I found some fabric I like, but it's a little spendy and the longer I sit around here and think about it the more I think it'd just be easier to settle on something already made. Haha. We'll see though. I think i'm gonna ask for a sewing machine for my birthday...maybe then I'll want to make something.

I'm sooooooooooooo excited!

27 Weeks

So here is another updated picture of my tummy...it is getting pretty big.

I'm not sure how I feel about all this...up until this point I have been squeezing into some of my not-maternity clothes and it really is not working anymore...dang.

I just looked at that picture again. I look so weird. Just know that I took it myself with the timer and the tripod so I didn't have someone to tell me-Mal try something else, you look ridiculous.

Also, I do think that my belly is rather pointy looking...haha. Do you see it?

Yesterday I got to go do my glucose test...they told me if I don't hear anything back it's a good thing...and I haven't heard anything so hopefully that is the end of that.

Anywho...what's new?

Dog Pictures

I love this picture of Thor...every time I see it I laugh. Haha. I had the hardest time even getting the picture I was laughing so hard.

Trig...

Scary picture of Thor...don't worry he's not going to attack or anything...there is actually a ball somewhere and he and Trig are playing with it.

He is so foamy/slobbery...
