Baby Shower

Yesterday I had my baby shower. It was so much fun to get together with my family and friends, some friends I hadn't seen in a while. I was very spoiled and recieved many gifts that will help Scott and I raise this baby girl. Thanks to everyone who came and for the awesome gifts. It was so much fun! I am now 35 weeks and only 5 more to go. I am ready for this baby girl to make her entrance into this world!

Happy Birthday Scott

Well its Scott 25th birthday on Friday the 20th. I know he is getting old. I know that his birthday isn't for a day but yesterday one of his presents I got him came in the mail and I had to let him open it. I was more excited for it than him.

Yes, thats right I got him a little girl North Carolina cheer outfit. I think he was a little shocked to find that for his birthday he got a baby present. HA-HA. It just so happens that he was also wearing his sweatshirt yesterday so I made him take a picture with it. I love it, and now she can watch the games with him! (Great way to get him to babysit) :)

Also Scott had to have a mole removed on the side of his head and the whole time I heard that he was going to die of cancer, well the results came back and yes you guessed it definitely not cancerous so that was very relieving. These are his stitches. He had 5 stiches and had them taken out today except for one and I am supposed to take out that final stitch in a couple of days. Not sure how I feel about that.

And finally the dreaded pregnant picture. Now keep in mind that the last picture I took was at about 25 weeks. I am now 30 weeks and I have tripled in size that is no lie. I have no idea where this baby is going to go for the next 10 weeks because I already feel like there is not enough room. Also I think I will stick to taking pictures in black shirts because they really are so much more slimming!

This is for you Megan

My friend Megan from Georgia has been asking me for a long time to put a pregnant picture up and I have been constantly telling her no, but today I decided I would do it just for her. So Megan you should feel very very special! We miss you guys a lot! This is me at 25 Weeks! And we still have a lot more to go!

Today we went and got our 20 week ultra sound done and it is a girl! I knew it the whole time and so did everyone else except Scott. I think at first he was a little disappointed because of course every guy wants a baby boy, but I think he will get used to the idea when she comes. Actually I am pretty sure that she will have him wrapped around her little finger. The other great thing was that everything was looking healthy. The doctor checked the heart, brain, and everything else and said everything looked good so that was a great! I of course am very excited for a little girl and can't wait to start buying things for her. She weighed 11 ounces which the doctor compared to the size of a can of pop.....so still not very big but growing at a rapid rate and so is my stomach for sure!

We Got In!!!!!!

Well Nat is making me write something in our blog so here goes. Saturday (Nov. 30th) I got a phone call from a wierd number. I thought it was someone from the ward asking us to speak in sacrament. Well to make a long story short it was the head of admissions at the Arizona school of Dentistry and Oral Health and he told me that I was accepted. I was pretty shocked and I think Nat already knew what had happened before I had even got off of the phone. So not a bad day. Also in a couple of days we get to find out what the sex of our baby is so December is officially the one of the best months of my life.

Its Official!

Well we went to the Doctor today and got our first ultra sound and it is official there is actually something in there with a heart beat and moving around doing flips!! It was so neat to see the ultra sound and amazing to see that there is actually a baby growing inside of me. I am officialy 12 weeks and 2 days (not as far a long as they thought I first was) so that puts the due date at May 3. Just in time to graduate from college and then have a baby. It is an overwhelming but amazing feeling to know that we are going to have the opportunity to be parents. We are quite nervous but know that everything will be just fine.

So while we were in the Doctor's office the doctor looked at Scott and asked him if he wanted to play Doctor or Dad in the delivery room....Scott just looked at him with a confused look and the Doctor said...well if you want to help catch the baby I would love to have your help. He was pretty excited about that, but says that he is still not sure if he will have the stomach for that...ha-ha

Also while in the Office and looking at the Ultra Sound we saw something a little funny and the doctor goes ...."Uh-OH" both Scott and I said..."WHAT?" and he said hold on a minute....meanwhile we are waiting wondering what the heck is going on.....he points to something and he goes see that....I think that could be another pair of feet...."WHAT"????we both said.....Hold on he said and he starts rubbing the thing on my belly all over the place....Keep in mind that I have had these dreams about twins and have been really nervous that there was two in there, ....but after searching for a while he said.....that must have just been the umbilical cord.....oh boy....I thought both Scott and I were going to pass out...but he said it was not another baby so.......I guess thats good...that would have been a tough little while with two babies instead of one!!

But we are very excited and feel very blessed and are very nervous and anxious for the new adventures that lie ahead of us!

Halloween

We love Halloween. Last year we had such a good time dressing up as a chicken and a chef. Except this year we are having a hard time coming up with costumes that are going to top last years. So if anyone has any ideas it would be very helpful
