Warm weather a blessing or a curse?

oh my goodness we finally got a bit of warm weather this week. the green grass is growning and its starting to feel like spring and summer. I'm so excited i love the smell of fresh cut grass and being able to walk around outside barefoot in it. But as the pregnancy has shown me some of my favorite things aren't so easy any more. it is really just barely warm i think sunday it was in the high 60's we have church at 1:00 PM so it makes for a lazy morning. you all know me and how i like things to be about 80 all the time. well i'm definatly getting that pregancy heat now. Our apt was probably about 60 and kurtis was cold and turned on the heater and i was dying. Then we went to church which for once had the ac on. We have a ward filled with quite a few older couples so they make it generally unbarebly hot in there even for me normally. Kurtis told me it acutally wasn't bad in there this sunday but i still ended up going into the bathroom and running my pudgy puffed up hands under the cold water for about 5 min. before returning to sacrament with two paper towels that had also been run under the hot water. I shared time with those between my hobbit feet and my pudgy hands trying to cool down. Alas i ended up leaving and having kurtis take me home to our once again cool apartment with about 15 min left of sundayschool. i've been finding that my feet even just sitting for about 15 to 20 min end up getting puffy it is the least bit warm wherever i am at.

So for now i'm day dreaming of my inlaws 3 foot deep pool and nice days so i can enjoy the sunshine and stay cool. :-) so close now girls almost down to 5 weeks!!!!! I promise i'll get some picks up this week the baby has dropped so i can breath again but its making sleeping a little harder. But it makes me feel like i kinda look cute in clothes again which has made me feel a little better.

Anyway hope all is well with everyone we'll keep you updated.

almost 34 weeks!!

Ok so now that we're not sick anymore and things are relativly back to normal i figure i can put up a small update blog. I went to the dr. this morning i have one more 2 week checkup and they will be doing a strep test then. I'm hoping that soon we will get to have another ultra sound so they can somewhat figure how big he is. All they told me this time was that in two more days when i hit 34 weeks if i go into labor they won't stop it. Yay. That means its getting close.

In other news my parents came down this last weekend and got to see my pregnant belly. My dad most likely won't be coming down after i have the baby so it was nice to see him. No one really said anything except the following. Jay said "sam you look alot different when your pregnant." and dad said hugging me was like hugging a basketball. Mom brought down lots of presents for baby. My favorite are two stuffed animal puppets. One is a duck and the other is a frog and they ribbit and quack different songs when you push their mouths together. I love them. I'm not sure if they will have any battery left by the time our little boy gets here but i figure thats ok. Other than that she brought a big shopping bag full of clothes. Some really cute ones, and 3 tubs of blankets. I made her go home with one. As we are still in the process of getting the babies room ready and i still haven't figured out a theme for it hopefully these blankets will help. Along with each blanket is either a matching 2 or 3 burp clothes, a toy or a few hats one for baby and one for toddler. I'll see if i can't some more pics up on here sometime soon i'm just absolutly horrible at taking pics so...

Other than that i'm by myself today and most of tomorrow kurtis has to go do a job for work in st. george and won't be back for a bit so i'll have the house to my self. don't know what i'm going to do with the time. we'll see i guess. anyway hope all is well

Can baby say Walking Pneumonia?

First off laura you have to let me know when you get to utah for sure!!!

Now well so i may not get preeclampsia or bleed during my pregnancy like my mother did.... but i get everything else i think. So last week on about wednesday i started not feeling to great. Since Kurtis got what we thought was a cold the saturday before we figured i had just caught his cold. However thursday night after talking with his parents we found out that his brother Kevin has walking Pneumonia. And since kurtis's cough sounded a lot like kevins his mom and i were both thinking that we should go into the dr. However i am glad she said it to him before i did. So we were ok thurdsay and then friday we had a game night where we were both hacking up a lung. That night i couldn't sleep and at about 5 AM i decided to take a bath to try and get the pain out of my chest. When i got back to bed at about 7AM apparently i was pushing kurtis away anytime he got near me. Now thats not all that uncommon but ususally i remember such a thing and don't do it hurtfully. So he got out of bed and i slept until about 9:30. NOT NORMAL for me anyway. so when i got up we went to the dr. the best part of this trip for me was when the nurse who was going over our symptoms etc asked me when my last period was. kurtis an i both kinda looked at each other and smirked and i proceded to say ahh august...31st. all the while she was looking down at her paper and her face was priceless. when she did look up i told her i was pregnant. Then proceded to ask kurtis if i really just looked fat. But he explained that since i was wearing sweats and a hoody that it did just kinda look like i was a little plump.

Anyway so they basically told me that they couldn't do anything for me tested me for strep which was negative. Which i could have told them and then said well even if you do have anything we can't give you and x-ray and even if we could we can't give you any meds. soo.. on to kurtis. They did give him an x-ray and said there was a little fluid in his lungs but not much, however since his brother has walking pneumonia that wanted to treat him as if he had it full blown. so they perscribed him some meds and we picked them up that afternoon.

We stayed home from church on sunday so bad but hey at least we didn't infect anyone. and i slept in till 11 AM i think that might be a record. went to family night at his parents where we just kinda laid there the whole night i didn't ever really wake up that day.

on to monday...

Monday i went into work was there for about 5 min and my supervisor told me to go home and not to come back unless i was feeling better. so i've been out of the office for two days. But on monday i also called my dr. and after basically the whole day they got me on some meds. actually the same exact stuff that kurtis is on. so here we are day three of walking pneumonia... and going strong.

For the record i envy those that love being pregnant because i wish i did and i feel bad that i don't. but i am tired of being sick. But i am so thankful for the baby that is on the way and i know he will be worth all of it. i just wish he would get here sooner....

update!

Ok for laura and anyone else wondering my Due Date is June 7th, but i'm shooting for him arriving on May 31.

So preganancy has done a number of weird things to me and my body but among the newest development has been my eye sight. I have been having some blurry vision lately and trouble getting things to focus like letters on a computer. Since i have been under watch for getting preeclampsia i have been monitoring things like this lately. aka swelling fat feet, fingers, face(check) headaches (check) blurry vision (check) Stomache Pains (Check) Protien in Urine (Check) High blood pressure NOPE. So at my dr appointment the dr and i talked about all the symptoms i've had. We figured that the swelling feet was from traveling and not getting enough water, that the headaches adn blurry vision went together, and the stomache pains were either gas or something to do with my gull bladder that we can't do anything about until after the baby is here anyway. I think the protien in my urine happend to be because i had a big steak the night before for dinner. And since i have really low bp 116/71 i do not have preeclampsia. which is great.

So now it was time to figure out what was wrong with my vision after talking with some people at my office and becky and reading different things on the net about vision and pregnancy and the weird things it can do to you i decided to get my eyes checked. So after the exam the dr told me its very common that after the baby is born that your eyes go back to normal. Meaning in short that my yes got worse in fact one eye was as much as .75 worse. The good thing is that i can go back after the baby is born and he will check my eyes for free since its only in a few months.

I've decided that your body is just stupid the first time you have a baby it doesn't know what to do or what is going on. Or that at least that is what my body has done. However i am very happy that my baby is healthy and i for the most part am healthy and have had no real complications. one more day and i am 32 weeks. wahoo!!!

little scare

So tuesday night i had a bit of a scare. I was getting these sharp pains in my stomach and the little turd (i've so affectionatly started calling my son who is obviously taking after his father already) was moving so much that it hurt more. they've been monitoring me pretty cautiously for preeclampsia (toxemia) for the duration of my pregnancy and with the swelling i had around easter we've been trying to be really careful. They had told me before that if i started to get cramping or stomach pains to first try some tums or some sort of ant acid so did. Unfortunatly it didn't do a thing. so i decided it might be just gas and decided to take a warm bath and kinda stick it out. we ended up going to bed early and at about 4:30AM it started to feel better. By morning i still had a bit of pain right at the bottom of my rib cage. now first of all that night i'm sitting there going through one of my pregnancy books trying to figure out whats going on. Let me tell you something how are you supposed to know what any of these things feel like unless you've experienced them!!! anyway... so i wake up in the morning still in a little pain and decide i need to call my dr to make sure everything is ok. Of course being a girl and a country girl at that i think the first thing we all do is call our mothers. Not to mention that my mom did have toxemia with me so if that is whats going on she would kinda be able to explain what everything feels like. to make a long story short mom thinks it could be the baby just pushing on a nerve or gas something like that but tells me if it countinues to hurt to call the dr. So after i get off the phone i called the dr. They told me it could have been braxton hicks contractions, could be a sign of preeclampsia but since i haven't had any of the other symptoms of it for the last little bit and i have a dr appointment next wednesday that just to monitor if i get any swelling or blurry vision to come in immediately. or that it could just be gas, and to take some more pepto. They basically told me that with any of these the best thing to do is to relax lay down with your feet up and drink lost of water. most of these things can be brought on my dehydration and stress so i needed to take the day off and not do anything.

So yesterday i layed on my back at our apartment all by myself all day being annoyed at daytime television. i don't know how much of a de stresser that was but no pain yet today....

Fresh of the press Belly Pics

Here you go Guys these were taken this morning. Sorry if i look a little onery i was really tired.

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.

Belly Button

Ok so most of you know that i used to have my belly button pierced. I alway thought i have had a pretty deep belly button as you generally have to stick about the whole first phalanx (bendy part of your finger) in my belly button to reach the bottom. However now as you can see both of the holes from my piercing arou now on top of my belly and the top hole used to be just at the very top of my belly button. on the up side now if i were to draw two eyes in above it it would look like someone was singing. Lol. enjoy!!!

Cleaning

Just Cleaning out my phone and thought i might as well post some pics of us. This just proves that though i am weird i married someone just as weird as me....
I think this one was a while ago, just cuz kurtis has increadibly short hair in this pic.

Bugg eyed pouty faces my favorite.

Kacie took this picture on sunday we've decided that i look like some sort of weird human puppy!

And my favorite kurtis pretending to pick his nose. This is what comes up when he calls me.

Just Keep Swimming, Swimming, Swimming

I figured that i'd write to tell you all how we're doing and what we've been up to.

Kurtis is just starting to get back into the swing of things at work. In asphalt the winter is down time pretty much. They've been working down at the flat getting things ready for this year and helping out at his bosses dads house with some chores. This next week he will be gone all week to moab where they have a job doing to paving i think. I will be moving in with the in laws for the week because apparently since i've gotton married i've become a scaredy pants. I'm still working at Bonneville we're rather slow right now so they are giving me more jobs to do, maybe that will mean i will get a raise soon!

Outside of work Kurtis is on a rec volleyball league in Murray. He plays ever thursday night and has been having fun with it. Volleyball is probably his favorite sport to play so getting to play it every week seems to be lifting his spirits. He also has been playing church ball every Saturday when they have enough guys. I am coaching our YW basketball team its been fun, my girls are undefeted and we have 2 games left so they're pretty excited. Especially since they are so young and really i only have 3 that know anything about basktball out of the 8. I've been having a hard time with the coaches on the other teams. they seem to think that this is the major leagues, and take it a little to seriously. Imagine that coming from me lol.

At my last Dr. appointment at the end of January my dr. told me that i needed to exercise more. The baby was measureing a little big and i had a big weight gain ( which i attested to not having a belly and then bam having one.) she was worried that if the baby keeps grown that fast that i wouldn't be able to deliver him naturally and would need a c-section. This was also about a week after i tore my round ligaments and had been having trouble just walking. So since i couldn't do anything that i was used to doing for exercise and i couldn't really walk i decided to try something new. So Kurtis and i now swim about 3 days a week at our rec center pool. It has been wonderful. i admit its very tiering but well worth it. I feel so light in the water and have noticed that once i get to a certin point i just bob right up. Kurtis has been teaching me form and breathing. He used to be on the swim team in highschool, so i'm lucky to get tips from him. Plus a nice thing is that during leisure swim i get to play bball in the water and i don't get hurt. :-)

Other than that we really haven't been doing much. We are really waiting for the good weather to get here the last few days we have had blue skies and 40-50 degree weather, but today we have a winter weather warning in effect until 10 pm and are supposed to get between 4-10 inches. So hopefully they are wrong.

anyway thats us. TTFN

Euphoria of Spring

Its been awhile since I’ve wrote like this but the sun is out the skies are blue and the feel of spring is upon me. And those of you who were in Marchant’s English class in high school understand what that seems to do to me. A gentle euphoria consumes me and nothing but whimsical bliss fills my body. Its days like these that I wish I could capture in a bottle and put them on a shelf so I could take them out to enjoy on a cold winter day. The flicker of green grass through the glistening snow, a drop of hope that the beauty of the world is under there waiting for its time to shine. I think the only thing that could make this more perfect would be if the ocean we’re at my feet. I’ve always said that there is a soothing, healing power possessed in the ocean. Its unexplainable, like a wonderful magic healing. The sounds the smells the beauty and wonder of the ocean. I count myself truly blessed to be have been able to experience the ocean in its entirety for two summers. It did heal me in so many ways. Alas the spring fever has hit me, the one thing I love about living in a desert is that spring seems to last a bit longer. Spring rain, spring grass, spring flower and spring skies. I look out the window and am taken back to my childhood running through fields with that wonderful big sky above and the smells of mud, dirt and fun. My favorite place as a kid was exploring nature, the animals the water, the trees, the mud. It whisked me away to my many daydreams, I was a paleontologist, a marine biologist, I was huck fin. Sometimes now that I know I’ve become an adult I wish I could go back to those days, where my dreams where the limit and all it took to keep me occupied for hours was my imagination and a field, creek, and trees. I have a feeling that if I were back there I would still enjoy it but not to the magnitude that I did then. What is that change that happens when our imaginations seem to become dull, that our fantasies become out of our reach and we stop dreaming altogether. I believe that the euphoria of spring takes me back, it brings by my childhood, the excitement of shorts and warm weather. The chance to go outside and explore, trips and friends it brings my dreams back to my grasp with the brightness of the sun and sends light throughout my body. I can’t help but smile.

Belly Pics

Alright girls here they are.... I had Janet (kurtis's Mom take these Saturday night. And so you all know this belly didn't really appear until last week and it has grown quickly. Callie i don't know how you even function with your belly mine is driving me crazy. Especially since our little boy is so low, he is really not even above my hips and so i've just decided that he has pushed everything else up and thats why my belly is getting so big. Anyway Enjoy!!! By the way i hate the middle picture so i hope you all like it.

OK OK I'm writing agian but you'll still have to wait for pics sorry!!!

Ok so it has been FOREVER since i last updated the blog i keep telling myself that when the baby is born i will get better. But we'll have to wait and see. Anyway Sorry no belly pictures i was really trying to get them done this weekend but alas i am a big picture slacker. So the big news as most of you know is....

ITS A BOY!!!! we found out last Thursday January 17th. (funny enough this is the day that kurtis proposed last year.) so maybe something good will happen next year at that time too. We had an ultrasound and the nurse was having trouble seeing what exactly he was because he likes to have his legs crossed. Anyway the nurse measured the body and we have some pics from the ultrasound of feet arms etc. our favorite seems to be what i call the terminator picture. its a picture of the babies eye and it looks like a machine its crazy!!! Anyway since she was unable to figure out what the baby was she assured us that the dr. would be in soon, (aka we waited for about and hour for him to come in) and that he would be able to tell us. So the dr. came in said everything looked normal and that even though the measurements put me about 3 days ahead of schedule to stay with our original due date. Then he asked if we had any other questions. To which we were both like "uhhh can we find out what it is" he seemed surprised and was like they didn't tell you and we told him that they were having a hard time so he got out the ultrasound machine again and started to probe. Also worth mentioning He seems to like to hang out right on my Bladder as if its he own personal body pillow. The nurse and the Dr. commented about how low he is. When he finally found him again he was like well i can see why they've been having so much trouble, as his legs were still crossed. so after i told kurtis to stop poking the baby the dr. used the ultrasound tool and banged it onto my stomach to get him to uncross his legs. Then came a question: "so what do you think that is" i have to admit i felt a little like Rachel from friends as i couldn't see anything. But kurtis answered quickly "its a penis" and the dr. said " its a girl.. with a penis" lol and said "no i'm just joking its about see here is the scrotum and the head of the penis, i'm 100% sure if i'm wrong you can call me" so we're pretty darn sure that is a boy!

now the news of the week. So you all know that i'm very competitive when it comes to sports. Well i've been very good not even been around sports so i'm not tempted to play. We'll i happen to be the Young Women's b-ball coach. so Tuesday was our first game. Which we won 25 to 1. however before hand i was playing around nothing hard or anything and picked up a ball and did a layup. well apparently i pulled or strained my round ligaments. So i can hardly walk now its getting a little better but i've been told by my dr. the only thing i can do is take Tylenol and hot/cold it and they gave me a number to a physical therapist. so i took yesterday off and am back at work today. hobbeling around, i was told that it doesn't get better until after the pregancy is over which could make for a miserable 4 1/2 months but we'll see.

anyway sorry no pics i'll get them soon. Love you all!!!

BABY ON THE WAY!!!

So i thought i would let everyone who doesn't already know. That Kurtis and I are expecting an addition to are family around the beggining of June. My first doctor's appointment is holy cow November 26. at that time i'll be 12 weeks along. Which yes puts me at 10 weeks acutally today. We're quite excited and if i felt a little better i would be super excited. But i have been assured that the sickness is well worth it. Everyone else seems to be rather excited as well. We told our parents and siblings about a week after we found out back in september. And since this will be the first grandchild on both sides there is ton's of excitement. I'll try and keep you all updated with belly pictures when i get a belly none as of yet. (which makes me feel like i am just sick for a month instead of being pregnant) I keep saying that when i get a belly i might acutally become more real. I'll also see if i can't somehow get an ultra sound on here or something.

pictures from the honeymoon

so i thought you all might like to see some pitures from the honeymoon so here they are, plus just some random pics. I had to throw in the one of dylan because i knew becky would get a kick out of it. he and . it wkurtis go a long great and at this moment dylan was trying very hard to eat mashed potatoes with a tooth pick. This pic is from the wax place in vegasas pretty fun however i don't think it was worth the money. This picture is from the 4th game of the 2nd round of the nba playoffs in utah against The Golden State Warriors. The game that went into overtime and also he same game that Derek Fisher came in late in the 2nd half after flying in from new york where his daughter was having surgery. I was very proud to say that we stayed for the entire game. There were many who left before the overtime thinking we had no chance on winning. It was a great game.

This kinda wraps up my recap. so now here's whats new. about a month ago we fell in love with this puppy. she is so stinking cute and we vist her almost every weekend to see if she has sold yet. even though we cannot have her. She is a puggle a mix between a pug and a beagle and we think she is adorable
