Eventful week

So on Sunday May 8th it was mothers day. it was just a relaxing Sunday. We didn't do much but that is OK because i just got to spend time with the person i love.
Anyway-mothers day is special because i have the most wonderful mother in the world. I know she has had some difficult times, and i know Ive given her my fair share of gray hairs; but she is still the most wonderful mother ever.
I'm so excited to become a mother because that means i get to be like my mom. Exciting.

My birthday was yesterday, Tuesday, May 10th.
i switched my work schedule around trying to get my friends together to go out to dinner. Well the plans changed and we ended up going to Cane beds to spend the evening before my birthday with Rhian and Nicole. They made the most Delicious dessert for me, it has graham cracker pecan crust, with chocolate and then vanilla pudding. and they made very thing by hand (even the pudding). Wish i could have gotten to bring some home cause it was Delicious. We had hamburgers, and then watched the boys play around on the computer playing star craft 2, which was OK because by that point it was almost midnight and i was tired.
so i get woken up at 6:30 AM (the boys didn't go to bed til then because of a star craft 2 tournament going on in Korea) and took the dogs out, got settled to go back to sleep, when i got sick and spent the next hour throwing up. Yes i haven't been sick my entire pregnancy and i get sick on my birthday, ironic i know. Anyway i was finally able to fall back sleep, only to be woken up at 11 AM by Kazzoe whining to go out. So we got up and ready for the day.
We dropped the dogs off at my mother in laws to play in the backyard, and headed into St George. Since we hardly ever go into St George there was a lot of running errand to do.
(ill skip the errands). We had lunch at Red Robins and it was Delicious. I got the free birthday Sunday-yummy, and got embarrassed while they sang their birthday song.
We then headed back to Hurricane to pick up the dogs and head home. We actually stayed for a couple hours at Lydia's and visited for a little til we left because Jake was going to pass out from being so tired. i had to drive, and it was so rainy, good thing he slept the whole drive home. :).
Anyway this week so far has been fun.

Shayla's birthday was on May 6th-she turned 18. I know I'm getting old!

My moms birthday is on May 18th.

And Shay graduates June 1st. Busy month.

So with the baby coming I have been thinking a lot about my childhood.
The song by Mark Wills called 19' something, has been making me think what did i do as a kid, what did we have that was new, or crazy, or really different from now.
Here is the lyrics :

I saw Star Wars at least 8 times Had the pac-man pattern memorized And I've seen the stuff they put inside Stretch Armstrong I was Roger Stauback back in my back yard Had a shoebox full of baseball cards And a couple of Evil Kinevil scars On my right arm Well, I was a kid when Elvis died And my mama cried Chorus: It was 1970- something In the world that I grew up in Farrah Faucett hair-do days Bell bottoms and 8-track tapes Lookin' back now I can see me And oh, man did I look cheesy But I wouldn't trade those days for nothin' It was 1970-something It was the dawning of a new decade When we got our first microwave And Dad broke down and finally shaved Those sideburns off I took the stickers off of my Rubix cube Watched MTV all afternoon My first love was Daisy Duke In them cut off jeans A Space Shuttle fell out of the sky And the whole world cried Chorus: It was 1980-something In the world that I grew up in Skating rinks and Black Trans Ams Big hair and parachute pants Lookin' back now I can see me And oh, man did I look cheesy But I wouldn't trade those days for nothin' It was 1980-something Now I got a mortgage and an SUV But all this responsibility Makes me wish sometimes Sometimes.... chorus: It was 1980-something In the world that I grew up in Skating rinks and Black Trans Ams Big hair and parachute pants Lookin' back now I can see me And oh, man did I look cheesy But I wouldn't trade those days for nothin' It was 1980-something

What did we have or do in:

In 1990 ...

2000...

2010...

What is my baby girl gonna grow up with?

wishing it was already summer

I really want to go camping.
Make a fire-sit around it, come home spelling like campfire.
It reminds of girls camp and current creek and I really want to go.
Its to bad school is still going, i work every weekend, and its STILL not warm outside.
But were gonna go because Jake wants to take his new telescope out and sit and watch the sky all night, which is ok by me because i can go to bed while he stays up.
And I can take the dogs, and Kazzoe can dig a big whole where i don't really care about. :)
I'm gonna go to bed and dream about it now.

Side note: i had the coolest dream, where Jake and i were driving through vegas, so we stopped for the night and on our way out of the hotel, we put a couple dollars in the slot machines and won 10 Million dollars. and then I proceeded to take all my family to Hawaii for a week. It was the coolest dream. to bad that will never happen.

26 Weeks

We are able to feel her move. in fact Jake loves to lay on the bed, watching a movie, with his hand on my tummy so he can feel her move around.
Here are some updated photos:


this is one of my new maternity shirts, but unfortunately its been to cold outside to really where it without a sweater of some sort. By the way Grandma H these are your capris I'm wearing, they were really comfy.

Dear Jacob

Thanks for cleaning and vacuuming and dusting today. I know we only do this when we have company coming over but i still appreciate. Now I'm doing laundry, and waiting to finish up so we can fold everything and put it away all at the same time. Only thing left to do is dishes.

Anyway, here is an update photo for the pregnancy. 24 Weeks-April 2, 2011.
