25-28 Weeks

25 Weeks-Tired and tired. Oh, and tired and hungry.

26 Weeks- My belly feels huge. My back is achy. I feel my skin tighten like they are in sausage cases. I can still wear my rings and that is what I am using as my judge. I want fruit. Cantaloupe, grapes and strawberries. Went to IHOP and had pancakes that made me want to cry they were so good. Weird craving for Iced Tea. I don't drink Iced Tea, but I saw it on TV and I wanted it. Maybe just the ice...I must be low on iron.

27 Weeks-Water. All I want is water. I am SO thirsty. Water still gives me the worst heart burn of my life. Catch 22. My back hurts...period.

28 Weeks- Moving this week and things are kinda crazy so I will have to post about my Dr. appt on friday later. All I do is complain I know, but this is when things start getting really uncomfortable.

Jenners Jam

 She sits and waits....until a good song comes on....quickly changes shoes and then...

"Yo, this is my jam!"

 "Can you handle this..."

"No, I didn't think so!"

-Classic no pants and shoes. It's the only way she like to roll.

ATTACK!

It all starts out fine and dandy. Happy little siblings.

Then Jents finds the light saber.

Chases down Jamison

And I have to take it away....ending all fun that ever existed in the world.

We are moving!

So, some of you may know, but some may have no clue. We just bought a house in Lindon! It is right up the street from were we are now. We are super excited to finally be in our own place again. We have been going back and forth about buying for the last 6 months and decided that our reasons for buying were out weighing our reasons for not buying. When we came up with 5 solid reasons we needed to buy now...we just did it.
This was by no means an impulse buy. Randy and I have looked and walked through about 15 homes...maybe more. We even put in another offer on another home we really wanted and didn't get. It was kinda hard because putting our ideas together of what we want made it hard. I think this house is a good split. Randy sacrificed a little of what he wanted and so did I. Over all, we are VERY happy. The best part I think is that Jay gets to go to the same school. We are, however in a different ward. We could be moving in the next few days...which is scary. I HATE moving. But, at least this time it will be before the baby is born.

* If anyone has boxes..... or hands please let us know. :)

Ten Facts of Life

1. If I lived near a Dairy Queen I would be 500 pounds. I LOVE blizzards.
2. Jamison told me that he wants a girlfriend. I then explained what that meant. It kinda went like this:
Me: Blah, blah, blah...So, the boy and the girl kinda like each other.
J: And...
Me: And sometimes they hold hands.
J: And...
Me: And maybe even kiss.
J: I knew it! (Followed by a giddy laughter)
Then I told him he couldn't have a girlfriend until he was 16. He was worried that he had to wait 10 years. What he doesn't know is that he will never have a girlfriend. I will never let any girl ever touch my innocent boy.
3. The baby kicked me so hard this morning that it woke me up from my glorious sleep.
4. Randy rubbed my feet this week. I didn't even ask him to. He just started doing it. I didn't want to say anything in fear he would stop.
5. A man name Jimmy keeps calling me about our truck we are selling. He has called 5 times now and wants me to bring my truck down to Salt Lake so he can give me half of my asking price. I was polite at first then found myself cursing in my head and finally telling him to stop calling me and hanging up on him. ( I put his number in my caller ID as "DO NOT ANSWER, " he calls me from all different numbers.)
6.Jensen sat on my lap saying over and over, "bowl, spoon, eat." Every time I asked her what she wanted to eat, she just kept saying the same thing. That lasted about 20 min until I gave her a bowl and a spoon. I am still figuring out what she wanted to eat.
7. Our bath tub facet drips. At night. Right by the wall in which I sleep. It is Chinese torture. NOTHING will fix it. (Except moving...)
8. I have been addicted to DIY network as of late. I now know that I could remodel or Demo or design anything....isn't that what they want you to believe? Yes, I am just like every other idiot out there who thinks they can master it all.
9. I will be 30 in exactly one month. It seems crazy and old. But, I am really thinking my 30's are going to be my best years. Truly. Embracing every moment of it...even my adult acne and bad back.
10. No matter how hard I try, I will never be as good as Randy at making cookies. I watch him do it...nothing special yet, so much better. What makes his better? That is a question I will ask in Heaven.

FUNNY!

This video is hilarious! It is a little long, but funny. The thing I love most about it , is that it is filmed like 10 feet from my house. The school is the Junior high behind us. Watch it HERE!!!

Happy Birthday Ally

Aunt Dana and Ally

My late cousin Jamie's daughter Ally celebrated her 2 year birthday. We had the party over at Kelly's house and had a big spread of food. Shalese made Sloppy Joes and the amazing Barbie/princess cake. We also had tons of fruit, salsa and salad. All the fam that could come was there, which was a house full. I think we figured we had 10 kids under the age of 8, yikes! It was a mad house, but nice to all be together!

I could NOT get her to smile.

Fire

This is what Randy did last night. It is taken from some girls u tube video. I called him worrying that his brother Kevin might be there, and it turns out that his crew was called in from Orem. (Kevin was off shift.)

His crew was doing search and rescue and found one of the victims who didn't make it. Two people died in the fire that their neighbor (who was crazy) started. So sad.

   

The kids

Jamison has been cracking me up lately. I think because he is too smart for his own good. Recently I have had to explain to him all sorts of weather patterns. He has become obsessed with tornadoes, hurricanes, and storms. He only checks out weather books from the library. Twice this week he has broken down and cried because he thought it was too windy. Randy I have done MUCH reassuring that our house isn't going to blow away, and that Utah is pretty safe when it comes to that. (Let's face it, if it's going to be a natural disaster I am calling an earth quake.)  We have told him that he is not going to be able to read anymore books about weather if he keeps getting scared. So, to take his mind off of it we went on over to the school near us and played soccer in the....wind. It totally distracted him so I think we are good to go for now. I think he is too much like me, a little worrier. 

Oh Jensen. Little stink pot. Her new favorite thing to do is hide behind the couch and take her pants off. She loves being nudy. I think she is going to love summer time. She has started talking so much. Really I am the only one that can understand her, but it is so cute. The words: Fish, chips and cheese all sound the same, "shesh." She also now says: Please, thank you, bowl, spoon, banana, show and several others. She loves wearing her cowboy boots with any outfit including jammies. She gives kisses more often and will even snuggle sometimes. I think the screaming is way down due to the fact that she can communicate a lot better. I love it when she wakes up from her nap how she knows that it is time to get Jay from school. She will stand by the door with her shoes on and say "Jay bye bye" 100 times. She helps remind me. She loves him so much.

I LOVE my kids!

Mama

Here is proof that despite all Jensen does to drive me crazy, I can't get enough love and kisses from her!
-Timbra took this snap shot

Just so you know I am REALLY getting bigger...

21-24 Weeks

*Jay took this pic and I am laughing so hard because as he was taking it he was like, "Oh, good job Mom, you look great!"

21 Weeks- I am so hungry all the time. It is so hard not to think about food all day. My lower ligaments have been giving me some pain. I think I am really starting to grow. I am also filling out all over my body. I feel pretty good. I'm a little more tired than normal, but that could be do to the up 3 times at night pregnancy insomnia. Randy has found me a couple times just passed out right were I am sitting. I promised that I wasn't even asleep, but he said that I was snoring.:)
22 Weeks- I have heart burn and lots of gas...TMI. Still tired so I am going to try and cut out the sugar so I don't have too many lows and eat more protein.
23 Weeks- I feel my mind turning to mush. I am forgetting everything. It is very troubling to feel like a space cadet. I have to write down EVERYTHING. Sometimes I get heart burn from drinking water. Water! It's not fun.
24 Weeks- Had my Dr. appt. today and I had gained 7 pounds. Yikes. I stopped eating ice cream and treats...kinda, but I think it was a little too late. Wait, does a dozen donuts count? Everything looks good and baby's heart is healthy and strong.  Still getting heart burn from water, which I think is weird.
