Oh gosh...

I'm awful at this! About a million things have happened since I last posted but now that I've actually sat down to write about all of it, I can only think of a few.

*We decided to move into Student Housing instead of the apartment we were fixing up. Things just weren't working according to plan, but that's ok because this arrangement will probably be better for us in the long run

*We had another baby check-up, he's doing great!

*We had our one year wedding anniversary. It wasn't what we'd planned originally, but it was wonderful nonetheless. Details and pictures to (hopefully) follow.

*I started up a blog to try to document this last bit of my pregnancy. I basically suck at writing things down/keeping a journal and all that. I'm working on it I promise!

*It's starting to feel like this baby is close. Really close.

I needed that...

Two of my cousins stopped by today. Shellie is in town (in state?) from Georgia and Austin and his lovely family live right here in UT and I haven't seen either of them in forever. I think it's been two years. Sad, but true. They came by because Austin found out that we have no air conditioning and he brought us a fan. Love it. This thing is intense. Seriously- it's basically more like a portable swamp cooler than a fan. I hope it works like I'm dreaming it will. Anyhow, according to Austin that was "just an excuse to come see you" said with a big signature smile. Thanks! You have no idea what that means... it's been a lonely time for me. Fave moment- both of them telling me I look good for how far along I am. Lovely! I've been feeling as huge as a house, but apparently I don't look like it. I believe the term skinny-mini was even thrown out there. :D There was talk of a get-together so they can both finally meet my husband and I can see there adorable spouses again. Yes please!

Ps. Shellie- Your hair looks fab. I forgot to tell you when you were here.

I love when my girls are happy. Especially when they're wonderfully, blissfully, out-of-their-minds-with-joy happy. Thanks for letting me be a creeper and enjoy all this smiley goodness.

Today I am awesome. No, seriously. This morning I was up at 3:00 (yes... the dark one) to pack Kimbal's lunch for the day, get his stuff all good to go, refill his water bottles, and get him breakfast. Bomb. Then he left and I felt lonely and sad for myself for about 2o minutes. Got over it, checked and published another photography feature for my other blog, and checked all my emails. Next I straightened the living room and started a load of laundry. Read from my book for a bit (gotta have my me time) and did battle with some seriously wicked heartburn. Ew. Fixed myself a turkey sandwich for lunch (and kinda wished I'd saved some of the DELICIOUS bbq chicken Kimbal got for myself) and took a little nap. Got up, called my Dr. office (they didn't answer even though there were still 40 minutes until their office hours were over. rude.), took out laundry load #1 and put in #2. Got load #3 all good to go, started folding #1 and began to feel ridiculously proud of myself for all I've done today and had to tell all of you. Go ahead... Tell me how great I am.

Meet our little man!

It's a boy!

The little guy's profile

Is it just me, or are baby feet adorable even in utero?

I think it's hilarious that they label it... as if any of us couldn't tell what that is there between the little guy's legs.

A look at baby from the front. He keeps his hands by his face all the time!
