Labor

I mean hard work labor, not birth labor. Daniel and I have put together two things for the baby's room. One is a wardrobe thing we got from IKEA and the other my parents got us a toy chest, but we're going to use it for a hope chest. I enjoy putting things together, it's like Legos for big people =) though Legos are a lot of fun and I enjoy those too, they are just so EXPENSIVE, I can't believe the prices of Legos. Have they always been that expensive? I'm talking well over $200. Anyways, things are good, we had an appointment with our midwife yesterday and the baby is still head down, it's little butt is what pokes out on my left side so now I know I can spank it =) Daniel and I are getting really excited, we're trying to spend as much one on one time and enjoying it while it lasts. It's scary to think about the future, us having a child, but we're taking it one day at a time and knowing that this is a gift from God and He will provide and take care of us. I've also been getting my Halloween costume ready. I love October, the weather is great and I love dressing up for Halloween.

28 WEEKS

Alrighty. SO I'm 28 weeks, moving right along. I'm just now starting to get uncomfortable, so I can't complain, it's been great. Daniel and I have discovered the show LOST. We kept hearing about it how great it is, and now that it's almost the 5th season, we're a little behind, but we just finished the first season and we're addicted. I do enjoy watching the DVD though, no commercials and we don't have to wait a week to find out what happens next. Other than that, nothing too exciting

2 year anniversary

Daniel and I when we were dating.... Daniel and I have been married two years today!! It just gets easier as the days go by. God really has been working in the both of us and we're very grateful for His hand in everything. Without the Lord, I'd be a wreck =) We were going to go to dinner, but since I can't eat as much as I use to, we'll save our money and do something together, maybe get a massage. That sounds great right about now. Daniel and I are slowly getting ready for the baby, and getting really excited. School is going well so far, it's hard to imagine I'll be done with this semester and be having a baby in 3 months. I'll be posting a new belly pic soon.

This is a little video of our cat Jasper lounging on our couch, he's very sweet and so is Suva, she's our white cat, which she has a little cameo in this video

Birthday Week

Here I'm trying to take a bite of my Baklava, but it's a little stale unfortunately Mom, cousin Amy, myself, and sister Julie me, Julie and Nick My birthday was the 8th. Didn't do too much. My cousin came out for a visit from Portland, OR. My family went to one of my favorite places to eat, Pita Jungle to celebrate. I got hooked up with presents, I love presents. The weather has been a little odd, 100.F outside then all of a sudden it starts to pour down rain and there is still the sun shinning and blue skies out. It reminds me of the midwest.

24 Weeks today!

I seem so uninterested in all of these pictures, really I am getting excited the bigger I get, Daniel just snaps the shot when I'm spacing out waiting for him to get the camera ready. Anywho, I'm 24 weeks today. The baby is moving a lot more now, usually at night when I'm getting ready for bed. Between the hours of 11pm-1am. It keeps me up for the most part, but I don't mind, I enjoy feeling the kick. I swear last night it's little heel was sticking out and I pushed on it and it moved it's foot really fast. Things are going well, my cousin Amy is coming to visit from OR this weekend, I'll get more pictures up with some activity going on and with normal pictures of me without my shirt lifted. I started school last week, which I'm so excited to be doing something other than work. Work has become harder on my bones. I can't waitress as quick as I use to, and I try really hard, but I get exhausted pretty quick. Oh well, what are you gonna do?
