30 WEEKS

Today I am starting week 30. I really can't believe that. It makes me excited. I had Cameron take a picture of me. I thought I'd post a picture at 30 weeks. Well, after looking at them it was pretty depressing. SO, needless to say I am pregnant and can see where all of this weight gain is going. And it's not just to the belly. I don't know why looking in the mirror and seeing a picture are so different! Oh, well. I will just chalk it up to a healthy baby!!

This month has gone a lot slower probably because the kids are out of school and the days seem a little longer. But that is all going to change with all of the upcoming holidays. I am getting so excited to see this little girl that has been very active in my belly. I feel very ready for her. Yes, I still need to get a few things like a car seat, but mentally I am ready. I have loved having a little break with this one and I think I will enjoy the baby stage a little more this time around.

I have decided that having a baby in December is not a good time when I have SO MANY things I want to make for her. I would love to make a soft snugly blanket, little shoes that I have seen, finish quilting the quilts I'm making all 3 girls, sew the blessing dress I fell in love with and make cute little girls hair bows and flowers to go on these cute heads I have running around here. But Christmas is in the back of my mind and I am MAKING myself be patient! So maybe some of those will have to wait. But I am just so in the crafting mood lately.

So here is to the last 10 weeks! Hooray!!

I bet you look way better than you think:) I can't believe you are already 30 weeks, it goes by so much faster when you never see the person.

Our New Family Pictures

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 change up, little specks to take off, small touch ups before th

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,

TRIALS

We have been preparing for over 4 years for this trial. But nothing, no matter how much you knew it could and most likely would happen, can prepare you when your son's doctor tells you now is the time. "Your son needs open heart surgery." August 24th, 2005, Jason was born in Las Vegas, NV. He was perfect and healthy looking in every way. At his 2 week check up the doctor heard a heart murmur and recommended I take him to the cardiologist. I mentioned that I was flying out to WA in a few days and so I'd probably go when I got back, 3 weeks later. The cardiologist doctor called me the next day after visiting with the pediatrician, asking me to go in to have Jason checked out. It was late and he was willing to stay after hours for us to get there. After an ultra sound of his heart (echo) the cardiologist diagnosed Jason with a very small hole in his heart. Nothing that needed to be fixed right away, unless it started causing problems. So Jason started going every 3 month
