32 Weeks



Wow! My counter says 52 days today. Boy are we getting excited. Bryce said the sweetest thing the other day about being excited. I know he's been pretty nervous about the whole thing. I mean, what 23 year old man isn't nervous about his first baby. Oh, what MAN isn't nervous about providing for his family let alone at 23. Bryce is going to be a great day and I'm so excited for the fun times he'll get to have with Robert. My pregnancy hormones are definately kicking in. I cried for no reason last night, well, I think I'm just getting more and more tired all the time and my reflexes are off and so I was frustrated that I almost got in a car accident AGAIN! It doesn't help that I leave for the house at 7 to catch the 7:30 train to then get home around 7 because I'm picking Bryce up from work. Thank heavens we only have 2 more weeks of having a cast!!! Maybe he can drive with his walking boot! I'm hoping because I need to not be driving. I leave for St. George in about an hour to go to the Tuachann plays with Shelley (Bryce's mom). We went last year and had so much fun and I'm super excited to get away. Brionne (Bryce's sister) sent out baby shower invitations today for our Utah Baby shower. Really excited about that. The Vegas shower won't be until AFTER Robert arrives. There was only one weekend we could do it (because we didn't do it this month) and my mom will be in San Diego for a work thing with my Dad. SOOOOOOOO we're putting it off until Novemeber which will be fine, I'm sure EVERYONE will be sad about seeing the baby at the shower instead of PREGO mommy. Ok, no one is going to care :)

Check out my savings blog. The link is on the sidebar. Getting 4 newspapers delivered is really starting to pay off!! I LOVE COUPONS!!!

My Crazy Dad



Thought I'd share this picture that someone posted on facebook. My DAD is the one in the front with the guitar. One of the ladies they went to high school commented and asked if my dad got his wig from the caveman section! LOL! So fun!

31 weeks!!!




I cannot believe that I only have 9 weeks left until I get to hold my little man! I am so excited. SOOOOOOOO scared, but so excited :). It seroiusly was so weird to see 61 days left as I was posting this. I have 2 months from tomorrow (cuz my 31 week mark was actually yesterday). He's getting so BIG. He's constantly on my bladder and in my ribs. I can't eat as much in one sitting and it's getting ever so hard to breathe, but he's gonna be so worth it all!!! Robert we can't wait to meet you!!!

30 weeks & Glucose Test Results

I guess I should post a picture. Maybe later today. I got my glucose test results back yesterday and they said everything was NORMAL. But today at my appointment I saw the actual numbers. In order to PASS the initial 1 hr test you have to be below 140, I was 148! She told me I was really high--stupid nurse gets me all concerns. In order to PASS the 3 hr test your blood draws have to be below 95, 180, 155, 140 respectively and I was 88, 158, 113, 123 so I passed with flying colors!!! WAHOOO!!!!

I am officially 30 weeks today. The countdown on the sidebar says 69 or 70 days (not sure why the # of days are different). We're getting pretty excited for Robert to get here. I cut out my fabric the other day for some receiving blankets and burp rags and I've been putting together the address list for my baby shower! How exciting?? I can't believe we're getting that close! I sewed 8 burp rags last night. I have a couple different patterns and so 6 are one pattern and the other two are a different one. I'll post pictures when I'm done :)

We need to get the baby's room all finished BUT Bryce isn't going to be doing much of anything for a little while. He broke his ankle of Saturday while he was riding his dirt bike. Silly boy. He just has a splint on it right now but should have it casted tomorrow. The ER doctor wouldn't say for sure if it was broken, but I'm pretty darn sure it is. He's still pretty uncomfortable from it and is still taking pain meds at night (since he can't work on them). I'll keep you posted on that and will take pictures for you!

Card Club Night




My next door neighbor sells Stampin' Up. She's amazing and she holds a card/scrap club once a month. The new year just started and we had our first club night last night. I'm doing both cards & scrapbook pages. She's super creative and I can't wait to find pictures to put on my scrapbook pages :) I also have a hard time giving away my cards so I decided that I'll post pictures and then when I do give them away I'll have an example if I ever decide to remake them :)

3 Hour Glucose Test

Thanks for all the compliments on my hair :) My sister did it while we were camping! It's growing so fast so I made her cut it really short! It's also growing out REALLY funky too...it's pretty funny.

I got my test results back today from my 1 hr glucose test and my blood sugar levels were high so I go in on Thursday for the 3 hour test! UGH! Not nice! They said they'd call in 2-3 days if the results weren't ok and if I didn't hear then it was good news. Well, I went a week ago, so I thought I was in the clear! I guess not. I also have to take IRON supplements to help raise my red blood cell counts. That I can understand (I guess my mom had that issue too). I'm hoping the high sugar level is because I can't handle them making me drink SUPER amounts of sugar all at once. It made me so sick last time....not looking forward to Thursday morning!

29 weeks



I don't have a picture from 28 weeks. We went camping last week and I didn't take one. I will post some camping pictures as soon as my mom emails them. They didn't get home until last night....well this morning...they blew a tire on the Excursion outside of St. George and then one on the trailer outside of Vegas!!! Poor parents.

Robert is growing well! When I sit at work he's up in my ribs and it's pretty uncomfortable BUT so exciting at the same time. Last night, I had to push his little tush cuz it was stretching my skin too much but it was so fun to actually feel it. I can't believe I'm to the point where I can feel him like that. 11 weeks left! WOW! Are we ready??? HAHA, yeah right! But I'm super anxious to see what he looks like and to cuddle and kiss him. Until then.....there is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOo much to do!!

27 weeks/6 months



Now you can tell I'm prego! WOW!
