Update

Well to update this past month well I decided Louie my dog needed a hair cut. He has needed one since the day we got him so we took him into the groomer and when he went in he weighed 12 pounds and when he came out he weighed 10 pounds....... I love it he is more cuddly now and so cute. Everyone says he will be mean to the baby and I will have to get rid of him but I have faith that he will be nice and love the baby just as much as we will.














For our spring break we decided to make a California trip.. I was kind of worried at first before I went cause I know your not suppose to travel long distances when your 8 months pregnant but I said what the heck if I go into labor my sister can deliver me which would be awesome but that didn't happen. She has been more my doctor than my real doctor in St George cause I constantly call her on any problem or question I have. We had fun we left on Friday and came back on Sunday not to long of a trip but it was fun we went to Huntington beach which is right by Ally sons house and Joe and his brother and their friend went surfing and boggy boarding. Allyson and Louie and I just watched and hung out. Allyson actually fell in love Louie she was like if you ever feel sad and need attention just take a dog for a walk everyone stops and talks to you. We wondered if you get more attention walking a dog than having cute children I guess one day we will know.. After that we went shopping which I so needed I dont really know how to dress my self when being pregnant so we went to maternity gap and found a cute pair of jeans that I can wear later and a couple of shirts. Saturday night we went to hollywood and visited Joes aunt Tyger she lives part time in Hollywood and part time in Houston. She is the 3rd family member I have met from his family I am sure I will meet more as time goes by ha.... The trip was fun and a success I didn't go into labor but I did swell up more than I had been. Sometimes I feel like I am swelling and swelling and swelling and maybe one day I can just blow up and than blow way....I wish!!!!! We said that may be the last trip we can take before having to worry about a baby so it was fun while we can.

Last update about this month I am having braxton hicks contractions I was worried I was going into labor but It is just signs of pre labor and my doctor said I will be having him in the next couple of weeks so just watch to see if the contractions come and is steady and not sporadic like they have been.. I am so excited I cant wait I am 36 weeks today and they say he is running about a week bigger so he should be fine in case I do have him a little earlier. The only thing is I have a baby shower scheduled for April 10 and if I can just wait till April 11 than it would be perfect. I guess we will just see and play the waiting game. Maybe just maybe I will upload a baby bump pic I know it is just me but I do not think my stomach is cute at all I am sure the little guy inside is cute just not my belly....

Count your blessings

Last sunday or lesson was on count your blessing and positive thinking. Well I absolutely loved this lesson this hit home so much it was crazy. All my life I have been the one to always be happy and love life and everything in it. When joe first saw me the first thing he had noticed that I always had a smile on my face. When I heard that I loved that compliment more than any other thing he could of said. Well any way lately I have complained about being pregnant and playing pore pitty me but I realized it doesnt get me any where. Sure it sucks gaining weight and not having a clear face but in reality that is not everything. I should be thinking that I raising a baby and I get to have a gift of being able to have a baby and raise him to be the best he can be in every way possible. Pregancy is a gift so it is one of my blessing I should be counting the negative that comes with it I can worry about it later.I will just have to hop right back into the gym and doing zumba. Besides being pregnant I am so excited to be a mom and I have already have such a love for him and I prob wont be able to comprehend what I will feel when I first hold him. I only have 6 weeks left and I am so excited. I have really grown up and so has Joe and our life is really coming together. We have been paying tithing and wow thats a blessing in its self. Even though it is hard to write out a check every month that I am sure we all can think of something we could buy with it but I has really gave us a million more blessings and oppertunities. We bought a car and was able to find a great deal and finance it for a way good interest rate. Joe got a raise and he gets insurance which is so great so now I dont have to worry about working while I have a little baby. I have a great family that is very supportive and I have the best husband ever that helps me out with everything. He is my best friend and I am so happy I found him or he found me. Today he brought me home a recliner that matches out furniture he found a great deal which is another blessing I have been talking about how I need a rocker before the baby and we would always go and look at them at target but they were still $200 so today before he got off work he went to a funiture store that was foreclosing and he found a huge rocker/recliner for $200 so it was a steal and I love it. So lesson learned there is so much to be thankful for and you will learn something and grow from every experience.
