the wait is over...

This is for all of you that have requested pics of my big belly....This is what 35 weeks looks like!

child birth education

So we have been taking a child birth class and every week they make one of the guys wear the "sympathy belly" so that they can get a taste of what its like to be pregnant. (like they will ever be able to know what its like!) Chris may kill me if he sees this, but its so hilarious i just had to let you all see....enjoy

baby shower

I had my first of three baby showers yesterday.  Im also having one in a couple of weeks that my sister in law is throwing for that side of the family.  Also its pretty funny because Chris' work peeps are throwing us a shower, and im pretty sure my work isn't planning on doing one.  Anyway it was really fun, and my baby is already a spoiled little girl!  Here is a look at the mound of presents that i got!  woo hoo! Showers are the best!

Our place finally coming together

So we were finally able to move into the in laws basement!  For a couple of months we were living in a room upstairs with the family while most of our stuff was in storage.  Lets just say it was a dark and dreary part of my life that really tested my patience.  Im thinking God is trying to teach me a lesson on patience since im going to be a mamma soon.  Im sure Im going to need a lot of it!  Well here are some pictures of the new place.....All we need now is our kitchen sink and our washer and dryer....Im getting pretty anxious since baby is almost here!  I didn't take a picture of our room cuz to be honest its a mess right now.  Its hard working full time and being 8 mos pregnant, my cleaning has been slipping a bit.....

Christmas.....summed up

Geez i haven't blogged since thanksgiving! I have some catching up here to do......so i know Christmas was a long time ago but here is what went down:

Chris and I went down to my mom& step dads in St. George.  We were hoping to escape to warmer weather but it was almost just as cold as Salt Lake and it actually snowed there one day.  We had a good time hanging out with my family....we of course played some mean games of rummikub.  To make things even better Chris suprised me with the best christmas gift ever!  He made it sound like he didn't know what to get me, and we told each other that we weren't going to spend very much money.....so i was very surprised when i opened up my new iphone!!!! I was so shocked!  Also i got a sewing machine from my mom, and a bunch of other cool stuff i wasn't expecting.  I really got spoiled....I did pretty good with surprising Chris too.  I got him rock band 2 ( he was suprised because im not a huge fan of video games).  Anyway, i posted the first picture that i took with my beloved iphone on christmas day....I was really striking a pose!
