Holy Cow!

Holy Cow! We have totally been neglecting this blog! Being pregnant has completely turned our lives around. 180 degrees! Things that I used to have time (and energy) for, I just don't now! Same goes for Chris. I think we both have been way more changed than we could have ever imagined. Sometimes I look in the mirror, and physically I'm not all that different. How do these few extra inches around my middle manage to dump my life on it's head?! Luckily, I feel better and better every day. I'm starting to get very uncomfortable, especially when I want to be sleeping, but I would take pain over sickness any day! Bring it on!



I'm finally feeling this little girl move. It took long enough. She was busy making me sick before I guess. Chris has only felt her twice. She loves to freeze as soon as his hand gets close. Really, that's the only new pregnancy development. Well that and Swollen ancles, feet, and hands, and lots of heartburn. But who wants to hear about that! Ha! I still can't believe some people like to be pregnant. Blows my mind. I love my baby bump and the movements, and I am crazy about my girl, but other than that.... nothing I like about it! Music Camp is in full swing, and for unknown crazy reasons I agreed to do the choreography. What was I thinking?! Dancing in the heat definitely doesn't help the swollen feet issue, but I guess it's great exercise. Keeps those extra inches strictly to my middle! Today I am 25 and 1/2 weeks. And counting! Definitely counting!

Chris is staying busy with VanLadyLove and Lady and Gent/ Strange Family. I'm pretty sure they are close to some big things. I'm really excited for them. VanLadyLove is growing a huge following, and doing so many fun things. Chris also just started a new job at Ingram Medical, while going to school full time. Yup, in the summer! Poor guy. He's actually REALLY busy, and he still massages my feet daily and helps me cook dinner every night. What a stud! He is seriously the perfect man.

The 4th was amazing! I hope yours was too. It's one of my absolute favorite holidays, and it lived up to my expectations this year for sure. Loved every second. Chris went along with all of my silly traditions without complaining for 1 second. He even wore the crazy Flag shirt I bought for him. He loves me =) Sadly, my flag shirt didn't fit this year. I wonder why...

We're going to start putting together the nursery any day now. We have lots of DIY projects to get done in there. Lots of spray painting to be had! We'll try to remember to take before and after pictures. I always forget that! We have already started buying furniture on KSL, and we bought a crib!!! So excited about that. It's starting to get real.

Sorry for the boring update! Had to be done =)
