It's a BOY!!!!!!

Surprise, Surprise!! It is in deed a Boy! We are so excited! As much as I would have loved to have a little girl first I am THRILLED to death about our little boy. The Ultrasound was today and it was one of the best experiences of my LIFE! It was so amazing and made both of us so much more excited about his arrival. My favorite thing about the ultrasound was seeing his little heart beat. WHAT A MIRACLE! We saw everything from his Brain to his tiny toes. The most important thing about the visit was to find out that he is completely healthy!! He is even a little ahead in his development which is great! They said it isn't enough at this point to change my due date, but we were relived to hear he is healthy and growing perfectly! We are so blessed!

We did it between classes so Jeff could be there and it truly was so special! One of Jeff's favorite parts of the ultrasound (and mine too) was seeing his little feet kicking. It was so awesome! He has been a lot more active lately, I can feel him move all the time; but it was so neat to actually see it. Everything is so real now! We are so excited!! As soon as I get the pictures digital I shall post them as well. But until then we shall rejoice in the news. We are having a healthy baby boy!!

Congratulations - WARNING - Little boys that move alot in the womb also move a lot OUTSIDE the womb. Be prepared for an active little fellow.

I just asked Bishop on monday what you were having, he said it would be a suprise if you had your way. Then he said Jason was speaking for Rick as well when he said "We NEED to know what it is so we can love it when it gets here" to funny. I am so excited. Boys love their mommy's like none else!

What to pack . . .

So now that he really could come ANY DAY I figured it was probably time for me to pack my bag. I of course have one of those "What to bring" checklist, but I was wondering what your thoughts where. Is there anything you wish you had brought but didn't? Is there anything you would have died without if you hadn't brought it? I'm just so clueless! A few tips from you experienced mothers would be greatly appreciated!! I cant believe it is so close!!

I need a haircut ASAP! This is me saying, "I'll smile if you ignore my hair." Don't get me wrong, I am really excited I have long hair, I love having long hair , but it needs a little TLC. It has been a few months since I have even got a trim and I am still re-couping from a not so good hair cut. The last few times I have really CUT my hair, not just a trim, I was not pleased with the results. Now it would probably help if I was willing to pay more than $10 for a hair cut . . . but I'm Mrs. High Pockets as my father calls me and it is really hard for me to spend money on my hair. So I need your help! What do you think I should do? Before you make any suggestions you should know: It MUST be able to go back into a ponytail!!!!!!! My hair is STICK STRAIGHT My hair will not curl to save my life (via over night curls, hot curls, even curling irons, they just don't work) I want and need something EASY! I do not like to spend time on my hair and I don...

No Use Crying Over Spilled Milk . . .

So being an emotional pregnant woman is definitely taking its tole on both me and Jeff (what a wonderful, patient, and understanding man he is). Saturday morning I was so excited because for the first time in weeks we actually had a morning together. I had planned to make us a delicious breakfast just like my dad always did for me. We had Eggs, Hashbrowns, and even Bacon; we were so excited. So I started cooking the bacon first, knowing it would take the longest. Then when I thought they were close to being done, Jeff started cooking the eggs and I threw on the hashbrowns. Well, needless to say, the eggs finished super fast and the others were not even close. And then to add more to my frustration the pan I was using for the hashbrowns was awful! Despite my many tablespoons of butter the entire thing was completely stuck! I switched pans in the middle to try to save them. In the meantime Jeff ate his eggs so they wouldn't get cold. I insisted on waiting so I could eat th...
