Preggo brain!

Okay, so I was always very skeptical about the whole "lowered IQ" "forgetfulness" thing while you're pregnant...until this week it really hit me. Remember how people always say, "I'm so out of it that I found my keys in the refrigerator" just as a way to express how out of it they are? Well, I really did find my keys in the refrigerator. Ya. I know. Pathetic. That's not all though! This Sunday we were in a huge hurry to get out the door and to church, so we basically scarfed down a bowl of cereal and ran out the door. Later during Sacrament meeting, I started to freak out because "I knew" I forgot to turn the straightner off and we were going to come home to a burned down apartment!!! We hurried home and I ran up the stairs (big feat at this moment in time)just to go into the bathroom and find that the straightner was turned off. I really am losing it! Luckily there are only 13 weeks and 3 days til my due date!!! (Again, not counting)

Blogging annoyance!

So if you couldn't already tell, my blog page is somewhat messed up! All my friends and blog lists are all the way at the bottom of this page! I can't even see them because they basically blend into my background...Anyone know how to fix it? Desperate is a little intense to say, but I would LOVE anyone to help!

Our 2:30am plumber...

This week has been very eventful to say the least! Lots of homework/stress, work/stress, lack of sleep/stress, and a water heater that rusted through the bottom/stress! Love it! Long story short, we came home Monday to find a sign on our door that read "The apartment below has a leak coming from your apartment. Please call maintenance." As the toilet overflowed a little bit ago, I figured it had something to do with that. Apparently not. When the maintenance guys came, they said that our water heater was leaking and that they would have to have a plumber come and either fix it or get a new water heater all together.

Well, last night after Michael's last two tournament softball games (so fun!), we came home to a plumber walking up the stairs with a new water heater! Great stuff. It was about 10:30pm at this time and so we figured he wouldn't be there much longer. Wrong. At 12:30am we asked if everything was going okay. He said ya it's going great! So of course, we thought that meant probably another 20 min or so. About an hour went by and he was still working on it. Another 20 min went by and the fire alarm went off because of the smoke that was coming from our new water heater. Finally, I went downstairs and asked if he was almost done. He really was this time. By the time he had gathered up all his belongings and everything was working pretty well, it was 2:30am. I don't do 2:30am. 10:30 pm is pushing it. But really? Oh well! Everything is wonderful and fixed now! Thanks to Amy and John and John's cousins!!!


Here is me at my 24 week mark! Everything is going well with our little boy! And I just quit my job so that I wouldn't be so stressed anymore. I heard it's not a very good thing to be so stressed when you're pregnant...therefore, only school for me for the rest of the summer! Yay!!! (Ignore the bad hair day....I was up too late to want to do it this morning!)

For REAL!

Yes, I realize that my title for this post is cliche, but I don't care:) So last Saturday after we went to a family graduation party for Janelle (which was so fun!), Michael and I headed up to the REAL Salt Lake soccer game! We had a blast! My dad was able to score us awesome tickets because Tom and his team were playing at half time! How fun is that? They were great and they all looked so cute out on that HUGE field!



Rachel and Carrie! Too adorable :)



Matt and Catie! Love them!



Here is us! Cute huh? (I especially like my burn line, not tan line, burn line)



Tom and Mike are both out on the field! So lucky!



Here they are playing:)

It was such a great game! REAL won and they had to go overtime because a player on the other team was complaining about a call for so long! Little would he know that those three minutes cost his team another goal! Go REAL!

May Adventures :)

So I know I promised to be better at blogging, but hey, at least my last post wasn't 8 months ago this time! This month has definitely been a crazy one. It was full of a ton of birthdays, our anniversary, finding out we are having a boy, school, work, softball, and tons of other crazy stuff! SO! Here is the rundown:)

Here is my hot hubby playing softball:) His intramural games are so so fun to watch! It's hard sometimes cause I would just love to be out there on the field as well, but it's okay, because I have Katie and Kenzie (wives of other players on the team) to keep me company and to keep my mind thinking about other things than how much I want to be playing:) Michael's team is in the tournament this week! Cheer him on!





This is me at the classic 19 week bump stage. I'm a little bigger now, but I think I was sticking out my tummy in this one to make it look bigger than it was:) I'm just too excited!!!! I'm at 22 weeks now, and more pictures will follow...just not really sure when:)



OUR ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY!!!!! Can you believe it has already been an entire year?!! I honestly can't. Michael and I have been so so happy together and love every minute that we have to spend by each other's side. He really is so amazing to me and treats me like a queen. I don't think I deserve everything he does for me. He really is my everything and I'm so blessed to be able to be with him for eternity:)

For our anniversary, I got Michael the Wii Sports Resort! Every spare minute he has, he is on that thing:) Man I'm good! haha But...I'm nothing compared to my hubby. Look at the amazing wedding band he got me!!!!!! Ah! Yes, I cried. I would attribute that to the pregnancy, but I'm pretty sure that would be a lie. Yup. It would. I love him so so so much!!!!!!




Finally, (but not really cause this was at the beginning of the month) Michael's birthday!!!!! Michael basically had a birthweek, not a birthday. Starting on the Saturday before his birthday and ending on the Friday after, we celebrated him:) On Saturday, we had our "us" party where we went to Ihop for breakfast and he was able to open his presents:) As you can see in the slideshow, he was pretty excited:) Then on Wednesday (his real b-day) all of his side of the family came over! It was so fun to finally have everyone in our apartment:) We did dinner, cake and ice cream, and presents! It was so fun to have them here:) On Friday, my side of the family all came down to celebrate Michael as well! My dad took us all to Fuddrucker's and ate until we were too full to breathe! Then, everyone came back to the apartment and we did presents and watched "The Blind Side". How fun is that?! I love family! Thank you to everyone who made Michael's birthday a great one!!!

It's a.....



Meet our little baby BOY!!!!!! How exciting is that?! I couldn't be more excited :) I'm just starting to realize how blessed I am. So many things have happened in the last year and I really can't believe that Michael and I are going to be parents. We really are so blessed and love our baby boy already! Michael is so excited that the day after we found out we were having a boy, he went on eBay and was looking for little Mariner's onesies :) How adorable is that?! We are just going to make sure he gets a Yankees onesie as well to even things up! We are still looking for a name but we will keep everyone posted!!!
