The Final Countdown!

I was hoping to have a baby by now!  I guess he is going to stay in there until he is evicted on Sunday. This pregnancy has been so weird, I wasn't as sick with this one as I was with the others. However, I am in so much pain this time around. I'm pretty sure that didn't happen with the others.  I have felt like my pelvis is broken for about 4 months now.  It hurts to sit, stand, lay, or do anything! According to my doctor it is pretty common, and there is nothing they can do to help. She told me to take Tylenol, that was not something I wanted to do long term, so I have been trying to deal with the pain.  Poor Mike has to deal with my whining...I do a lot of whining!  This last month has been the worst! I'm tired, but I can't get comfortable enough to sleep. I feel like my stomach is a thousand pounds.
It's not all bad. It is pretty awesome to feel him move around, and he moves around a lot! Mike thinks it is funny that it still surprises me. It is pretty crazy to see your stomach moving all over the place.
I feel truly blessed to be pregnant, we tried to add to our family for about three years, it's what we prayed for. I don't mean to complain.  I just wanted to document how weird this pregnancy has been.

On another note, on the 5th (actually the 4th, because the 5th was a Sunday) me and Mike celebrated 8 years of marriage. Mike is the BEST present giver ever! This year I got a ruby ring, necklace, and earrings! He is pretty amazing. Don't worry, I didn't get him anything, because I suck.  I am planning on making it up to him when my brain is functioning properly. :) We went to a movie, Saving Mr. Banks, and out to eat at Red Robin.  We haven't been to Red Robin in such a long time.  We hardly ever make it to Layton. It was so good! I've been thinking about their Freckled Fruit Salad ever since.
I really am so lucky to have Mike, he really is amazing and never ceases to amaze me. I love him.

I had to take Jaycee to the dentist yesterday.  She had an abscess.  They ended up pulling her tooth out. She did so good, I was nervous, she was crying before we even got to his office.  Once they got her set in the chair she let them put the gas on her, last time we tried that she kept tearing it off. Anyway, they were able to get her numbed up without her knowing what was going on, and she had no idea they pulled out her tooth until they showed it to her! She actually told me last night that she hopes they pull out another tooth next time we go in. Silly girl.

The house is moving along.  They have the basement mostly framed and the floor put on. They haven't done framing for a couple of days, but yesterday more wood arrived, so hopefully it will start to look more like a house.  I was trying to show Wesley where his room would be, he was confused because there was nowhere for his light. It is pretty exciting watching it all come together.  I am a little scared about picking out all the colors, I hope they all look good together. 

Happy Birthday to Me!

Well, 30 isn't that bad. This is me turning 30.

We had to take Wes into the Dr. on my birthday then we went and saw "The Lorax" which was pretty cute. Then we went to Zupa's for lunch. Mike made me a Butterfingers cake. He had planned to take me out to dinner and a movie but with the kids being sick we decided to stay home. The Sunday after my birthday my family had a little party for us.  My mom made meatloaf just because she knows I love it. We also had a really good salad and fresh fruit. Mmmm. And cheese cake. Delicious! I love getting together with my family.

After Jaycee threw up we all took our turn. Wesley was next then Mike then me. Jaycee and Mike were bad they were throwing up all night. When me and Wes had it we both only threw up once, still felt crappy all day. I count myself lucky. Now it's spring break and both the kids have a nasty cold. I tell you what, I am done with winter and sick kids!

Jaycee went to the dentist on March 21st. We had to have them knock her out. The last couple of times we tried to take her in she went ballistic! She ended up with 6 silver caps, 4 fillings and 1 root canal! I promise she brushes her teeth everyday and I brush them every night! Yikes. It made me sick to pay so much money for her little baby teeth that are just going to fall out in a couple of years.

Mike's church basketball team were the region champs. He missed the championship game to take me to "The Hunger Games". He is such a good husband.

On April 3 we took the kids to the Washington Terrace Playhouse for FHE to see "Joseph". We were a little worried to take Wesley with us, but he did so good. Sat still and actually liked it. Jaycee has been begging me to get "Joseph" from the library for weeks. So when I saw that it was at the playhouse, in its last week, we decided to go. It was a fun family outing. We will definitely be going to more plays in the future. We are already planning on go to the Toucan to see "Hairspray".  We went last year to Little Mermaid and she loved it.  Wesley was too young so he had to go to their daycare. Hopefully this year he can go with us.

We also all got our haircut that day. We cut quite a bit off of Jaycee's hair. It was over halfway down her back and now it's up to her shoulder.  She told me she wants to cut it as short as her daddy's so she would never have to comb it. I was a little sad to see her cut it.  I always threaten her that if she won't let me comb it I was going to have Jaime cut it. I never thought she would want to cut it. So I guess that back fired on me.  Mike is always telling me not to threaten if I'm not willing to follow through...lesson learned.  

It is really cute though and super easy to comb.

Conference was so good and being with Mike's side of the family is always fun. We are excited and ready for Easter.

We dyed some eggs today with some of the cousins. It's so fun to see the kids play together. Wesley and Kayla (Amber's little girl) are so funny. They are both a little crazy, when they get together they are a lot of crazy! Wesley thinks she is so funny, heck, I think she is funny and she is only two. Watching them together is fun.
