Coming and Going

Going...
Last night we had dinner with Chad's parents, Brandi and Jordyn. It's starting to settle in that they are really moving away. I think it's taken a bit to get use to since we didn't really see them a whole lot. But it's really hitting home now. Especially with both of us being pregnant! She is due around the end of November. She said she is going to try to make it down when we have the baby if she can. That would be really cool. Then sometime we will have to make it out there. Not sure when that will happen though. It's about an 8 hour drive or there is an airport we can fly into not too far away and there are usually some pretty good deals on flights so we'll work something out. I can't wait to see their baby too when he or she gets here.

Coming...
Mom and Dad have picked out a place here in town and everything is on track. They will only be about a mile away. Their place is actually less than a block away from Chad's parents. They should be down July 2nd to sign the lease and move in. I'm so excited to have them around. I miss them a lot and it will be so great to have them around when the baby gets here. I keep looking at the calendar wanting it to hurry up and be June since there will be lots going on then after June is over mom and dad will be here. I really think this summer is going to go by really fast! Which would be nice considering it's going to start getting hot soon. They said we should hit 100 degrees sometime next week. For now we're enjoying these days in the 80's! Very nice.

A little of both...
Chad got his car out of the shop...well for a couple days. Then something went POP and its now leaking a lot of something so they are going to come look at it/pick it up today. I think that car might have some sort of a curse on it. lol... or it just hates us. I don't know which! Very pretty car though... Chad decided that this car is now his son's birth right (when he gets old enough and can be responsible for such a beast).



Speaking of our son... I am now 24 weeks along. Crazy to think he's been in there 6 months already! We're getting closer and closer to meeting our son! Only about 15 1/2 week left! Here is the newest pic of us hehe... This pic was taken in the morning and I tend to not be sticking out as much in the mornings that's why I look bigger in the picture from Simi's party a couple weeks ago. So excited to see him next Friday! I've been craving sweets a lot... Probably not the best thing in the world but I try not to give in every time. :o)



I think that's it for now!

Busy times!

Wow it seems like we're busy... Maybe that's because I'm always tired lol. Simi's graduation is tomorrow - I really can't believe she is out of HS. She will be attending Dixie to become a radiology tech. Misty and Keith had a graduation party for her. They invited the whole graduating class (she goes to a small school so that's about 40 kids, about 30 showed up) Juan was the DJ and Chad helped him. Here is a pic of Chad and I from the party.





Yesterday we went for a checkup. Baby is doing well. He is measuring about a week ahead which is fine. His heart rate was 155, the Dr said that's a good strong heart rate. Since the last ultrasound he was being stubborn and wouldn't roll over so they couldn't get a good view of his heart we have another ultrasound scheduled for June 4th. I'm excited, it means we get to see our son again yay! We also got informed that we do not have to go the specialist so that was great news!! So it was a good trip to the Dr.

I got my invite to the baby shower that Ivy and Becky are throwing next month on the 12th!! I'm sooo excited! It'll be so great to see family and friends that I haven't seen in a while. I feel very special that I have great friends and family that love me and are looking forward to the addition to our family!

Mother's Day

I've finally decided that the feelings in my body are defiantly the baby. I had thought they were for a while but it feels like tummy rumblings to me lol... But now there is no denying it's him. Last night I laid on my back for a minute and he was rolling all around. Chad even got to feel him move for the 1st time. That was pretty cool espically since it was Mother's Day.

We celebrated Mother's Day by sending my Mom some pretty flowers. They made a surprise visit last week so it was really nice to get to see them. I had been sad that I wasn't going to be able to see my mom near Mother's day. Yesterday we also took Chad's mom out for dinner. We got her a new watch since she had been needing one. It was a nice day.

We spent some time putting up nursery furniture as well. We got the crib together on Saturday and the dresser together yesterday. Both are really sturdy and turned out very nice. His nursery is coming along quite nicely I think. I'm happy I have taken the advice to do this sort of thing in the 2nd trimester while I still have energy and I'm not too huge yet.


We'll that's all for now. This weekend is Simi's graduation party. She graduates next week. I also have a Dr. appt next Monday!

Love
