I'm not sure why we are waiting until TODAY to start this project...
But here is Jeremiah starting to do the tile in our bathroom.

Don't get me wrong, I am glad that it is getting done, I'm just wondering what has taken so long to get started :)

AND.. why does he look so irritated??? ;)

ahhhh... she's sooo cute!! I will miss her!

Sadly, we are selling her. I just posted an ad for her on craigslist and will probably put an ad in the paper next week sometime :(

She really is the best dog ever... if only....

Week 35

Week 35.....

Getting bigger!

Childbirth Classes

Last night was our first childbirth class. We are going to EIRMC to take the classes and they are on Wednesday nights from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. (yes, right when Lost is on so we have to miss that... so sad!). It was very funny.

The instructor had a "strap on belly" that all of the husbands put on and then tried to do things like tie their shoes or lie down and try to get back up. Just sitting down was hard for a lot of them! Then they took pictures (which I will have to scan and post later!) It was great fun! We also did some touching techniques and talked about why we are so uncomfortable all the time (ummmm.. duh?)!

Anyway, I just wanted to remember the hilarity of Jeremiah in a pregnant belly! :)

Baby's Room

So here is the finished product of the baby's room painted. Three walls are the brown color and the fourth is the stripees! :)

I LOVE IT!! THANK YOU JEREMIAH! :)

Doctor's Appointment

I went to the dr. this morning and I was freaking out about how much I could possibly have gained over the last 2 weeks.... I know, I have a baby growing inside of me.. whatever! So I jump up on the scale and woohoo!! ONLY ONE POUND! So excited!

Everything else is looking good also and I now have weekly appointments with the dr. to make sure that everything continues to look good and see how far I am progressing!

I am so excited to see this baby but I have to tell you that I will actually miss being pregnant. No, not the weight gain, the backaches and hip aches or the constant need to pee.. but I will really miss feeling junior moving around inside of me and knowing that she is safe and sound, right where she is! Not having to worry about feeding or changing her. I will miss it lots. I think that Jeremiah will miss it to although I think that he is even more excited to see her than me because he doesn't get to join in all of the fun stuff like I do. Most of the time when I tell him that she is moving and he comes over and puts his hand on my tummy she stops!! :) I think that is cute also but he probably doesn't! I do think, actually I know, that Jeremiah thinks that the "baby bulge" is very cute also. He is always touching my tummy and when I waddle he thinks that is just the funniest thing ever! I yelled at him at first, but he says that he has been waiting years and years for me to get pregnant and he will enjoy every aspect of this pregnancy that he can to the absolute fullest! So I try not to let his laughing get on my nerves TO MUCH anymore! ;)

Sunday Morning Drama

So Sunday morning Jeremiah had a Stake Priesthood Leadership meeting to go to at 7:00 a.m. He actually went (I was so proud of him!) and then came home and crawled back in bed for a 30 minute nap before 9:00 a.m. church. Of course, he forgot to set his alarm and since I figured he was going to be up and going before me, I did not set my alarm at all. He woke up at 10:00 (luckily we have reverse schedule for church so Sacrament is last) and started freaking out for me to get up and get going for the day so I got up and put breakfast in the oven then started to dawdle about trying to wake up for the day and get in the shower... All of the sudden I smell smoke in the house and you will never guess......

I STARTED THE OVEN ON FIRE!!!!! No, I am not kidding! I am retarded! I was baking a dish called caramel ring and the caramel spilled over into the bottom of the stove and it caught fire! Nearly gave me a heartattack!! I couldn't think of what I was supposed to douse the fire with so I was yelling at Jeremiah... "The house is on fire the house is on fire... What do I do???" Luckily he was a little more cool headed than I was and calmly told me to throw baking soda on it so I did and everything turned out alright.

Of course, that woke me up for the day but by that time, it just wasn't worth it to go to church. Happily, the caramel ring was still yummy to eat and didn't taste smoked or fire-grilled! :)

We then just chilled the rest of the day and watched City of Ember, Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist and Pride & Glory. None of them were good enough for me to ever want to watch again. Then we went over to mom and dad's and hung out with the kids and talked with everyone for a couple of hours.

The weekend...

This weekend was great... not long enough by far but really great!

Jeremiah has almost finished painting the baby's room and I LOVE it!!!! seriously, I went in after he had finished with the stripes on the wall and just sat in the chair and cried because I love it so much... I know I know... I blame it on the pregnancy hormones though! :)

Junior has been kicking like crazy. There are times that she wakes me up from kicking, or hitting, or butting me sooo hard!

I went and bought a new vaccuum and I LOVE IT!!! I used to have to go over the same piece of rug in my house about 10 times to get half of the dog hair up off of the carpet but now one time and I'm good to go! It is a Riccar and it is a canister. I didn't think that I would ever buy a canister vaccuum but it is awesome! I have mostly hardwood floors and so it is really nice to use on those and on the tile. I literally have 2 rugs in my house to vaccuum (So I won't tell you how much I spent on the vaccuum for those 2 rungs! hee hee).

I cleaned out my fruit room which is what I call my food storage room and it looks GREAT! That is a project that I have been wanting to do forever.

Elvis

So yesterday I woke up at about 9:15 a.m. and went about getting ready for the day. When I went out to the kitchen to get something to eat, there sat Elvis among the remnants of her dog bed. I was so mad at her!!!! She has had this bed for months and even though it is RANCID I have let her keep it because she loves it so much! She has never chewed on it although I have seen her licking it. It was completely destroyed. All of the foamy stuff that was inside of it was all over the floor. I didn't yell at her or beat her or anything (totally against my nature!). I just took a picture of her with my phone and texted it to Jeremiah and Kathryn. I was pretty sure that she had done it during the night and that Jerm just didn't want to clean up the mess so he ignored it but he swears that it was not like that when he fed and walked her that morning. I guess I have to believe him :) Kathryn called to make sure that Elvis was still alive and said that she could tell that I had yelled or beaten the crap out of her just by the look on her face but it's just that she knew that she had been naughty! Such a little brat!
