Preparations

We aren't at all ready for our baby girl but we are slowly getting there. My mom gave us an awesome quilt for her crib. She made it all including the lamb on the front which she drew up from a picture online.

We had these pictures taken in my parent's front yard because I don't have that many of me pregnant, but after looking at them I've decided that's not so bad. The diet plans will begin sometime in the second half of May. ;) It's totally worth it though.

7 months.

As of yesterday we are 2 months away from the due date. We bought a crib and dresser/changing table and we have registered at Babies 'R Us. My mom and I picked out some material yesterday for the quilt and dust ruffle. It's going to be light pink, chocolate brown, and a darker pink with fuzzy lambs embroidered onto the quilt. I'm pretty excited.

Brian got to ref some state playoff games this year and right now he is in Las Vegas with JJ Bowman and Matt Basham for the MWC Basketball Tournament.

Updates

We're almost six months along now. Everything is going very well. We are taking a little Valentines get away to St. George this weekend. Brian is so busy with reffing that it will be nice to have him to myself for a little bit.

Big News

I'm pregnant! 16 weeks and due in May. Sorry for not blogging very much lately. I'll get back to it. Thanksgiving was great. We went to both the Arrington dinner at 2 PM and the Brand dinner at 6 PM. We are still full. Last week Brian and I spent the whole week in New England. We went from DC to New York and then to Boston. We saw Spencer Wixom and Ryan Thompson who are Brian's friends from high school. It was a lot of fun.


Walden Pond near Lexington and Concord.


Time Square.

The top of the Empire State Building. (Very cold!)

At the South DC mission home with Spence. (His dad is the Mission Pres.)

The White House.

Oops.

Well I can't really say oops. But it has been a really long time since I posted anything. I don't know if anyone is even looking at this anymore. Let me know if you are. Football season is in full swing so Brian is gone all the time. I just got a new job at the new IMC hospital in Murray. There is a lot of other stuff going on, but I will try to make time to continue blogging, that is, if anyone is still reading. See ya.

GO UTES!

The football season was never something I looked forward to until I met Brian. I love watching him ref and the atmosphere at the high school games. I also really like watching the Utes. We have season tickets. The Brands are huge Ute fans. Brian and his dad and brother went to Michigan this last weekend to watch them win. They had a great time. I can't wait to go to the first home game this Saturday.
