Busy Weekend

Every year my bother JR comes up for a conference at BYU and it gives us a great excuse to all get together as a family. This year my sister Kelli threw me a mini baby shower with all the sisters. We went to Gardner Village and had lunch and chatted and I got lots of cute stuff for my Sophia. The guys were nice enough to watch all the kids while we had our fun. After the shower we headed back to Jared and Melissa house to save the guys and hung out. Dave and I had tickets to the BYU/TCU game so we bundled up and headed down to the game that night. BYU didn't play so well and got destroyed by TCU but I still love going to the games.
So the next day we headed down to Jared and Melissa's house for some more food and fun. We played DDR, that is one game that I just can't play even will all my dance skills my brain just can't do it! It was fun to watch the little kids try and play to would concentrate so hard on the TV to just get one arrow. They were so excited when they finally did. It was a good weekend, it was nice to see the family.
So I am now 26 weeks along. My belly button is sticking out bad now. I already had an outtie belly button and now it is really and outtie. I passed my glucose test and officially don't have gestational diabetes. I was anemic though and have started taking iron pills which has made a huge difference in how I feel. I have so much more energy now. I wish I would have know a couple of months ago! I feel like I am finally getting prepared for this baby I have clothes, a stroller/car seat, crib, swing and dresser. If she came now I wouldn't freak out to much. I am getting really excited now as I only have 3 months left!


(so these pictures a in a random order, I can't move them so have fun looking threw them)

Baby Bump Watch.....23 Weeks



So I am now 23 weeks down. My camera has been having issues focusing and my curtains make my hair look red so it is not the greatest pick but I need to document how my stomach is growing. She has started kicking a lot and I love it, it is nice to have a reminder every day that she is still ok and alive, I am sure every pregnant mother has felt this way but I get paranoid that something is going to happen to her. Dave has been able to feel here kick a couple of times and it is so precious for him to be able to feel her. Anyway Dave told me I need to write down how I feel about being pregnant, I would have to say that I don't really love it. It is just uncomfortable and I don't feel pretty at all and I hate being hungry all the time, I get sick of having to eat so often. But I do love when she kicks and I know it is worth the outcome, but I don't love the whole process. I will try to document more pictures of my growing belly, it grows so fast these days.
