Last Weeks of Pregnancy

Here I am at 37 weeks:

Jenna and I have been enjoying a few outings alone before this new little guy arrives.  One morning she broke bread up and put it in a bag and said she wanted to feed the ducks.  So on our way to run other errands we stopped by a hobby farm at someone’s house in Springville.  A worker let her feed the baby kangaroo too which was awesome!

Here I am, 40 weeks tomorrow!  We had to get to Jaker’s Pumpkin Patch before it was to late!  She loved picking out a pumpkin and playing on the fun things there before Preschool.  I am really, really going to miss just her and I.  She is quite the talker in the car and can talk non-stop the whole time.  Soaking up these last few days with her!  She is going to be the BEST big sister.  She talks about her new brother all the time and can’t wait to see what he looks like.  4 days ago at my dr. appt. I was dilated to a 3.5 but baby was still high.  I got a few things I would still like to get done before baby comes but for the most part I am ready for him!

Wait what? 40 weeks already? You don't look that far along at all. Infact you hardly look prego in that picture with Jenna. I swell and spread all over the place. haha! What should I expect from you....perfect and gorgeous as always. It's such a weird feeling to make that transition but so fun. Hope all goes well. I can't wait to see him. Good luck!

How close have you been to a Prophet?

David, and two other guys he works with, were invited to the Jazz game last Friday night. I have come to find out as a construction wife, to get business, you gotta play A LOT ! Here is a short list, not limited to, of what I mean by "play": Golfing (about 3 times a week-depending on the week and in warm weather of course) Snow skiing (about 2 times a week, again this depends on the week and when there's snow) Fancy dinners (this can also be counted as lunch, which happens more than I know I'm sure!) Executive Retreats (this will be happening in February for about 5 days in AZ, which will have all 5 days full of golfing, guaranteed!!) Jazz games (again, when in season) I don't know about you, but I think I'm in the wrong career!! This house wife things just does not include ANY of those benefits!! Anyway, on with the story at the Jazz game... These weren't just ordinary tickets. Where do executives and people in high places sit? Oh yeah, ...

Our New Family Pictures

Image
I have been on the hunt for a really good photographer for a long time here and there.  And I think I found one that did everything I wanted.  First, she comes and looks at the feel of your home.  For us I just sent pictures of our living room where I wanted the pictures placed.  Then she suggests colors to wear and sent pictures back with our room and picture placements she puts on the walls.  And with 5 kids, especially Jenna, you really have to photo shop A LOT!!  Almost every photo with Jenna she had to photo shop.  She did amazing!!  I was so nervous when we went over and viewed our pictures at her house.  As David put it after our photo shoot “She has to be a magician to get anything good out of that!  That was a disaster!”  After looking at our proofs I said, “well, you are a magician!”  And David said after leaving and climbing in our car to go home “That was worth every penny.”  Success! I do have a few faces to...

Melanie’s Calling in Life

Image
Two Days ago Melanie was getting ready to go out the door.  She had her coat and was looking for her other jacket.  I asked her why she needed it when she already had her coat on.  She said she was going to take it to her friend at school, Humana, because she wears 3 jackets and doesn’t have a coat.  5 minutes later Melanie asked me “Mom, can we buy Humana a coat?”  I had already been thinking about that but told Melanie I would look while I was out to see if I could find one.  I went to 3 different stores to look!  Winter coats in that size are hard to find these days!  But I finally found something at Walmart and got gloves and a hat.  My friend, Angela, who drove carpool that morning called me while I was out looking.  She called worried because Melanie had said on the way to school that her friend didn’t have a coat and was sleeping on the floor.  I told her I knew about the coat and was getting one but Melanie hadn’t mentioned ...
