Had my first weekly with the Doc today.
I am dilated to a 3 and 70% effaced.
When I was that point with Levi I had him 8 days later.
So...we'll see what happens.

Spoiled

I was with some friends the other day when some husband bashing started over how messy they could be. They looked to me to join in but instead of putting jord down I said "Actually Jordan is really clean, he even did the dishes this morning before he left for school." My friends were shocked. I went on that he makes breakfast for me and Levi in the mornings so I can get ready by myself. They were amazed. And they should be right? He is pretty cool. After I left my friends house that day I thought of all the other things Jordan does that I don't think a lot of other men do. So here is my ode to Jordan. If you don't want to hear me brag about him then here is your que to tune out. But there are some out there, namely his mother, that will thoroughly enjoy this.

Besides making me and Levi breakfast in the mornings and cleaning up after himself, he also does the dishes after I cook dinner. AND cleans Levi up while I get his bath started. I also have never cleaned the toilet or taken out the trash. Those are tasks that he started religiously as soon as we were married. Seriously how awesome is that?! I'm telling you, I'm spoiled. Most days I try to nap while Levi is napping. If Levi gets up early from his nap and Jordan is around he doesn't wake me up, he lets me take an exta long nap while he plays quietly with Levi. If im not feeling up to it he'll cook dinner, and he is really good at it. Quite a chef. When i start cleaning he is quick to join right in and help. He ALWAYS opens the car door for me. (he actually gets mad if i forget and open it myself.) He does so much for me and levi all while he is a full time law student. I seriously could go on and on and on about how awesome Jordan is and how lucky I am to have him as my husband. I know a lot of you are probably gagging about this post and my bragging (I myself hate it when people display their PDA electronically) but this feels important. I guess it's ok to brag every once in a while, right?

Baby Update & Jade Layne Crafts

Ok friends, if you haven't already seen on facebook, I started a blog to sell crochet hats.
Come to find out, crocheting isn't just for grandmas.
Aren't these hats soooo cute?!
I first decided to try my hand at crocheting about a month ago when my sister had her baby.
I always thought those newborn pics with cute crochet hats were just adorable so I thought I'd try to make a couple.
Well from there it just kinda escalated. Im trying to make a ton of different hats and other items.
Check it out at jadelayne.blogspot.com.

This little guy is such a mover! 
Levi barely kicked me at all but this guy almost does not stop moving.

 My sister Carly and her Husb Andy had their baby on the 8th.

Lazy

I know, I know.... It's been a while. I bet most of you have stopped checking up on us because I haven't updated in forever. Sorry. (especially to carly because I have no pictures for you.) I feel like I can't do a new post until I get some pictures up, and I can't do that on my iPad. Or I just dont know how to. Blah blah Excuses I know, but here is an update on us.

Jordan is on his second week of finals at unlv law. This means that me and Levi have been kicked out of the apartment and are in stgeorge so he can study all day and night without interruption. He has finished 2 and has 3 more to go this next week.

I am now 13 weeks pregnant. Yay for the first trimester being over. (and if you didn't know I was pregnant then, surprise!) I am getting over being really nauseous and now just don't really like food in general. I'm feeling chunky and bigger now than this stage with Levi. Sometimes I can look really pregnant and others not so much. This is why I hate this stage. I want people to know I'm pregnant and not just gaining weight. I love when I finally got the baby bump, which happened between month 6 and 7 with Levi.

Well I hope you all have a great holiday season and hopefully I'll get some pictures up in a couple weeks...
