HAPPY BIRTHDAY DILLON!

Happy Birthday to my FAVORITE missionary! We love and miss you so much, but are extremely proud of the work and sacrifice you are doing! Mom and I celebrated by "enjoying" a hostess cupcake and can't wait to hear all about your day in Lithuania!


31 Weeks!!

Wow! This baby is getting bigger and bigger by the day! I am still measuring smaller than expected, but after a fun ultrasound, we discovered she is just hiding in my back and hanging out really really low. We had to really dig to find her head she was so low! It totally explains all the back aches and extra urges to pee every 5 seconds! BUT she is as active as ever and loves to kick her moms ribs and make herself known (unless grandma is trying to feel her!!) What a little stink! 

Anywho. Here is me at 31 weeks! We are starting to get anxious!!


My Aunt and Uncle live in Egypt, but were visiting their cabin in Cedar this past week, so my mom flew out and all three of us went up and spent the day with them. It was so fun because their whole family was there as well (minus Destiny) and they had never met Drew! Lane (my uncle) told us about this really neat waterfall that is the start of the Virgin River, so we went for a little hike to see this waterfall! 

Here is a picture of Drew and I about half way up... :]


My momma and I at the waterfall! 

Drew and I at the waterfall!


Me and mom again.. You can kind of see the waterfall spewing out behind us! (It came out of the mountain from sink holes in the lake above the rocks!)

Me and my momma again! 

I always love it sooo much when my mom comes to town!! It is always so fun to spend a few days with her and play! This trip was the perfect mix of playing and relaxing! She even got to go to my doctors appointment with me and was able to hear Lily's heartbeat!! It is so fun sharing these experiences with her! I love her and can't wait for her next visit!! 

28 1/2 weeks! :]

At this weeks doctors appointment I measured 3 cm smaller than I should be, so the doctor decided to err on the safe side and schedule an ultrasound. They weren't too worried because her heartbeat was still so strong and she was pretty active, but it was fun for me because I still get to see my little girl! I couldn't wait at ALL so I scheduled the ultrasound for the next day :] 

Of course, everything came back just fine! She is measuring right on track and has plenty of amniotic fluid and room for growth! We were so excited because we got to take home some pictures of our little one and at least this time... our 4d picture didn't look like a monkey! She actually looked like a baby! here are some fun pictures of us! 

This is a picture of our angel's head full of HAIR!! This was the first thing the ultrasound tech saw during the ultrasound and she literally started busting up laughing! As a parent, I was so confused, after all, this ultrasound was to make sure everything was ok. She finally said she very rarely sees hair on the ultrasound and never sees it at 28 weeks! And Lily has a full head of hair!! That explains the ridiculous heartburn she gives her mommy!



The profile view of Lily, she is getting SOO big!


The 3d view of Lily. She is always snuggled up to the placenta with her little hand up by her face! I'm thinking she will come out like this! haha


 Here is me at 28 1/2 weeks! My brother's reaction to this picture was "YOU ARE HUGE!" haha


So excited to be pregnant!


Other random happening around here...

Daisy has become ridiculously attached to me. She won't leave my side EVER! She always has to be sitting on me as well. It has become super annoying, but I think she is sensing that Lily will be here shortly. Here is a picture of her completely engaged in me playing on the computer! 

Funny story about this picture.. I was on pinterest, and passed a picture of a dog and she started growing at the computer. She has quick eyes and it still amazes me she can see the TV and computer!


I flew into Vegas last time I visited CO and Drew surprised me at the airport! He was suppose to be working, but they had scheduled too many servers so lucky for him, he got the night off! We decided to have a fun date night while we were in Vegas, so we hit up some Chipotle and then walked the strip, ending the night at the watershow! 


 We are sooo excited for Lily to arrive and I am so in love with my little family! I am so blessed and couldn't ask for anything more!
