hello All

hello all. We had a fun easter. We dicided to go on a mini vacation with our friends Katie and Brandon to Mequite over easter. Their family goes down every year to have easter with her dad's parents. We shot guns, played some bingo and a few slots and had some good food at the buffets. plus we played in an arcade and just enjoyed the sun and the time away. My feet got to a record puffyness i was telling everyone they were very hobbitesk. Since we got back they have gone back down to normal. Didn't really feel like easter but was still a very very nice break from the last really busy month, plus our anniversary was on monday so we were celebrating it while driving home. We didn't really do anything but it was still a nice day. we were going to get out the rest of our wedding cake as it is tradition to eat it on your one year anniversary but as of yet we still haven't maybe this weekend.

In news this week, it has finally slowed down a bit. i got my hair cut yesterday becuase i couldn't stand not having it look good anymore plus it was so thik it was driving me crazy. The girl who cut it thinned it out twice because it was so thick. I love it its the shortest its been in about 2 years but so nice and light and easy.

anyway hope everyones holidays were great!!

hopefully the end of a stress filled week...

Ok so we didn't get the house... but we're still looking. They counter offered us but only went down on their original price 5, 000. so we said forget it if they really want to sell it they might come back to us later. And yay last night we finished our yw/ym wednesday night combined activity that was a mystery dinner. I have been planning this with a 17 yr old, and our young womens president and we have both been a little stressed in the last few weeks about it. It went really well but at the end of the night my ankles had swelled up to about the size of softballs. Oh tuesday i had a glucose test and yesterday morning i had a dr. appointment. Lucky me no problems as of yet. This weekend we are going to mequite NV to relax with some friends. We figure this might be the last time we will be able to get a way before the baby gets here so we're taking it plus we've decided it is our anniversary getaway since its monday.

crazy to think i've been married a year and even crazier to think i'm gonna have a baby in 2 more months.

House shoppping is my least favorite but...

So we are putting a bid in on a house tomorrow. Its a nice 2100 sq. ft. house with 4 bedrooms 2 bath, and a beautiful deck. Its in a nice quite area in North Salt Lake acutally about 2 blocks away from our current apartment. We are putting our bid in at about 30,000 below what they want so its kinda a long shot to get it but with the market the way it is i guess we never know. So i thought i'd share some pics of what could become our home. We'll know on Wednesday whether we get it or not.

haaaa.... one more day till 24!

So i'm safe. My Dr. appointment went great. She said your weight is good your blood pressure is great, no protien in your urine (if you wanted to know). So Happy Happy Joy Joy. Smiles all around!!!! all that stressing out about it all was for naught. Lets just hope it stays that way. I do have another appointment on the 19th wehre i do my glucose test. so... but i was told by a friend here that it isn't as bad as everyone says.

So my B-day is tomorrow and i'm taking the day off i think Kurtis has something planned for us, it will be nice to just have a day together since we've been so busy and on pretty much different parts of the state the last two weeks. I'm excited. Anyway nice short and sweet thats the blog of the day... Maybe one of these days i'll have kurtis take some pics of me at the pool and put up on here. then again maybe not. lol.

March hey I'm almost a quarter centry old!!

March is here yay. I've feel like I've been so busy the last few weeks. Kurtis has been out of town in Moab for work, I was house sitting for his parents this last week which was great(but gave me a sample of what its like to have 3 teenagers busy busy busy), my friend Angie is getting married this Saturday and for the past three weeks i have had a bridal shower to go to every Saturday. Though its all been fun i feel like it has gone so fast. My Birthday is Wednesday and i've vowed to take the day off so Kurtis and i can spend some time together but i kinda feel bad because i have a Dr. Appointment tomorrow morning and will be late getting to work, and an endowment to go to on Friday. Whew....

I'm a little nervous about my dr. appointment tomorrow. I've been watching what i eat and trying to get exercise by swimming, but the last two weeks i have been unmotivated since kurtis isn't here and lap swimming is at 9pm and by then with the busy schedual i've been exhausted. Plus two weeks ago i got a flu bug for about 3 or 4 days and then this last week i generously got a cold where i think my entire brain filled up with snot that permenantly plugged my nose for the week. i think i went through 3 boxes of tissues. Now that i'm feeling better i have one day to go swimming before the appointment and i already know i've gained more than they wanted me to. I cannot beleive it. my belly is getting really big as the last blog kinda showed and since my torso is so short it really has no where to go but out. No stretch marks yet but i'm beggining to think that might be a wishful thought that i won't get any especially after seeing how much bigger callie's belly has gotten in the last few months.

I keep judging my puffyness by how well i can get on and off my wedding ring. some days i think the water gain is so much that its hard to get it of and then the next day it comes off fine. i don't know. But it all seems to be scaring me a bit. I'm afraid i'm not going to be able to loose the weight after but even more afraid that because the dr. told me that if the weight gain was to much that that probably mean the baby is growing fast and she's worried about him getting to big for me to deliver. One part of me keeps say hip hips has she seen your hips. I did inherit my mothers birthing hips, but the other part of me keeps thinking kurtis's last sibling were all over 10 lbs.

Anyway enough on my mental breakdown.... on the plus side this friday makes it offically 3 months till due date. then little baby anderson will be here and i can stop worrying about all of that and focus on the bundle of joy he is.

He has been very active lately. Just last night kurtis felt him as he was Rolling as i call it in my belly. he seems to do that lately right before we go to bed. i think he's just finding himself a nice comfy spot to sleep. i've also learned that he either hates or loves it when i sing to music. he tends to kick me on my way home from work when i'm singing in the car i think that its just our little jam session and that he is starting to fall in love with music already but i'm a little bias. Still no name for him as i am convinced not to give him one until i see him.


Anyway i better get back to work love you all. i'll let you know how everything goes.
