Prego Pics

I swore I wasn't going to post until Robert did and that I wasn't going to take any pregnant pictures, but both have now happened. My missionary brother kept bugging me for some pictures as well as many others. I was having no problem saying no to everyone else, but when he kept making me feel bad for being left out of all of this while he is on the Lord's errand it made me feel bad enough to finally take some to send to him so I guess I'll just break down and put them on here. We just took these last weekend so that puts me at 36 weeks! It is getting kind of crazy to think that he is really almost here. We went to the doctor and got checked and I have started to dilate and efface a little. We are headed to Leamington at the end of the week to help with cows, so hopefully between work and cows we will get him here soon! :) Robert is hoping that I can at least keep him in until finals are over so I'll try to be good for 2 weeks and then we are going to be very proactive in getting him out! For anything else going on in our lives there is really nothing. Robert is just finishing up the semester as I mentioned and we will both be very glad when there is one more semester down and I'm not sure which on will be more excited really! We are both still just working and doing up the crazy projects that I dream up at the moment in my lovely nesting phase of this pregnancy. We have had fun trying to get a nursery set up and get all of our junk that was in the baby's room oraganized in other places. I think that Robert thinks I am crazy will all I have made him do and done myself, but it does look better I think. I guess when it is all really done we will have to put up pictures of that. We are still working on a name too...if I was smart enough I would put up a poll, but that would be stretching my abilities too much so I'll have to make Robert do that! We have talked about a few but right now I think that they are all ugly so I guess I'll just wait until I see his face and hope that one of them fits and doesn't sound as ugly the day he is born!

Well, this is quite long enough so I'll just put the pictures on and at the rate we go with this blog our next post will be of our new addition! :) That is kind of exciting! We will try to keep you posted. The pictures are of my sister too. She is due 5 days before me-we are racing! :) We hope you are all well and happy!

I hope this doesn't give anyone a heart attack!

Okay, Okay so we finally got the message!! Honestly since I've gotten on the blog we have had about 15 comments to blog something, ANTHING and that we have been tagged how many times? I really am not sure and if I went back through the last almost 5 months and found the tags I would be doing this for 3 weeks straight. So forgive us please and we hope that a new post about our life will count for something! :)

Let's see where to begin! There really hasn't been anything big since we posted last...just Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, oh maybe that we are pregnant and having a boy in almost 10 weeks! Like I said nothing big! That is our disclaimer, well my disclaimer. I give no excuses for Robert not posting, but i have spent the better part of the last several months either laying on my bed/couch and with my head in a toilet. See why I didn't post? No one really wants to hear about our lives when that is what it entails. I have become quite a fan of the game show network and extreme home make over and I finally broke down and started the Twighlight series! I am such a nerd I know, but there isn't much else to do when you have to be horizontal!

Life for us is going well though...we can't complain. We have been very blessed. Robert is still going to school full time and loving every second of math and chemistry! He also works every second he is not in school and has been so good to help his lame wife with everything she can't do which seems to be most things lately! I have been working and getting fatter and fatter! I even had one really nice lady just this last week at work tell me that I am carrying my baby in my hips and and growing out to the side and not in front! The honesty of children and old people huh?! Robert is trying to keep up with me on the weight gain thing too...I think he is trying to make me feel better! Isn't he nice?! It really is my fault because I try to eat something and it doesn't taste good so I give it to him and he eats both or our plates! :) What can we say we are just fat and happy here in St. George! Robert is still playing softball, but not near as often as he wishes I am sure. He has been so busy that it really has been significanly less. It makes me enjoy it so much more when we do have games to go to!! :) We have been to a few tourneys and he has also started to play basketball a little bit too. He volunteered to coach an 8th grade boys team for a few months at the first of the year. He had a really fun time with that actually. He loves to coach and the boys enjoyed him so it was good. He also started playing church ball and I went and witnessed it for the first time last night. All I have to say is YIKES!! I forgot how intense and dirty church ball is. It was kind of sad and pathetic! But it is fun and excercise! I need to start playing again apparently.

All of the rest of our time has been trying to pretend that we are getting ready to have a baby join us soon. We are getting excited, I am terrified really, and Robert is just cool with it like everything. I worry enough for both of us apparently! We still can't decide on a name for sure. If I was smarter at this blogging thing I would maybe set up a poll so you could all vote, but I'm not so if I can get Robert on here ever I'll make him do that. I have all sorts of projects up my sleeve for Robert to help me with, boy is he excited! My little sister Kellie also expecting a baby and due 5 days before me. She is having a little girl and we are pretty excited. It will be fun to have them so close and we hope that they will be great friends. It has been fun to do the whole be pregnant thing with her.

Now I feel that I am just rambling, so that is enough of an update I suppose. I will try to figure out how to get a few ultrasound pics attached. And we will not be held responsible for any medical expenses that are acquired from being so shocked that we actually put something on our blog! In fact, I think that most of you have given up on us enough that it will take weeks before anyone realizes that this post exists! Maybe that will give us another month or two before another one is expected!! :)

September

We haven't been very good at updating our blog lately, so after some encouragement from Joe here I am. In my defense however, I was planning on doing it today anyways. But since school started I really haven't taken the time to post much because i'd rather feel quilty about watching SportsCenter as opposed to this instead of doing my homework. Especially with the way that the MLB races are coming down to the wire, if the White Sox hadn't have won today and if they don't win tomorrow and Tuesday I don't know what I am going to do after a collapse like that.

But anyways we haven't had a whole lot going on at our house. Kari's mom and sisters came over for a little while last week and helped her decorate the house a little more, we are slowly but surely getting stuff into place. The problem is that neither of us really know or care where certain pictures should go so neither of us have an opinion, therefore it doesn't get done. But the house is looking good, we have a few more things to get done with it, then I think we can relax for a little while. We did buy a new dishwasher yesterday since ours went to crap about two weeks after we moved in. But the latest news around here is that last weekend my parents and grandma and Jonathan came down for the One Pitch Softball Tournament. We had a good time with it of course and we (Muzzha Fuzzha) won the tournament pretty handily with really only one tough game. But Jonathan's team (Off Constantly) took fifth which was a great showing for them. Mom, dad and grandma were all able to be proud as both me and Wrenny played good and were both on successful teams. But that's all that has been going on around here for the past month, work, school and softball.
