Big Baby Kicks!

I have to take a second to write this down. . . I was watching Dancing with the Stars on Monday night, (LOVE that show!) and half way through one of them did a dance to Hometown Honey by Darius Rucker and this little guy inside started dancing like he never has before!! I had my arm on my belly and I could feel it all the way on the outside!  This is a big deal cuz Justin still hasn't felt the baby yet, so I have been waiting for his little butterfly kicks to become manly ninja kicks. But poor Justin wasn't home! I was so sad! Especially since he kept kicking hard like that for a solid 30 minutes. haha. I was super awesome. Justin was sad but I assured him it will not be the last time he goes dancing in the womb, so he'll get a chance to feel him.  Anyway, not much else to report, just that baby reminds me he's there all the time and I couldn't be happier. I'm sure it will get to the point where I'm ready for him to stop kicking and let mommy sleep, but ...

Half Way There!!!!

I can't believe I'm already 22 weeks prego!! I've passed the half way point! And I haven't blogged about it since the gender reveal. Sorry!! I always wanted to keep a really good journal of everything baby, but I haven't been doing super well. I think this blog has definitely helped me be better than it would have been had I not started, but I still want to be better. So here's to that! Anyway, what's been happening? Lots!! All baby wants is fresh fruits and veggies. I have eaten a million pears. And the ones from Costco are WAY better. Also oranges and strawberries and cucumbers. I can't get enough of them! Zina Brought me a whole bag of fresh oranges from her mother's tree in AZ and they are delicious!!! I've also eaten probably a million Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches. They are divine! We had our 20 week ultrasound a couple weeks ago too! It was so awesome!!! Seriously the coolest thing ever to see every little part of him and he pas...

Update on my super interesting life :)

It's been quite some time since I last posted a blog. I think since I found out the gender of my baby! I am sorry! Sorry to you, but mostly to myself. I know my life is SO interesting and you're dying to read about it... ;) But I mostly need to do this for myself. Journal style. :) So this post is a bunch of pics from my phone that I haven't blogged about lately. I think part of it is that I haven't taken a ton of pictures lately and I didn't feel any of them were particularly worthy of just one post, but together, they are!  Anyway, here comes a bunch of pics (that may or may not already be on fb) and they story behind them. :) Justin and I went to a benefit concert last night for the Elizabeth Smart Foundation and Operation Underground Railroad. It was awesome! We got to get all dressed up, (NO! I didn't take a picture of the two of us and how cute we looked! dang it... ) And I LOVE getting dressed up, so it was fun. anyway, we had dinner provided and...

It's a BOY!!

It's a BOY!!!!! I am seriously in shock. Good shock, but shock none the less. It's a little ridiculous. But lets start from the beginning of this crazy little party cuz it's kinda a fun story to tell.... I don't think it's a super shocker to anyone that I'm kinda a dork.. and I like to throw parties.. and I prolly do way more than I should. haha. I'm also a super cheeser, so I've been wanting to do a gender reveal party since gender reveal parties existed. However, Justin is a little more private than I am so it took quite a bit of convincing. But because he loves me so much, he caved. So I started planning!! haha. I got every single idea off pinterest, so don't give me too much credit. ;) We had our ultrasound scheduled for tuesday but the party wasn't till thursday, so we had the envelope with our destiny in it sitting in the drawer for a full two days. It took EVERYTHING we had to not open it!!! In fact, we almost did one da...
