I am so excited to finally meet you little one. Remember that special chat we had a few months ago in the temple? That was such a special night for me. I am so ready to start living up to the promises I made to you that night. I am so grateful that your Heavenly Father has trusted me to help prepare you for all the important roles you are to fill. You are coming to a family that loves you. You will have a Father to teach you, a mother to care for you, a brother to play with and a sister to cuddle you. I can't stop thinking about you. I will see you on Tuesday!

No Parking Zone!

2 Reason's I should stop taking bubble bath's with Kate Bug....

#1. Tonight as I was laying sideways in the tub...trying to relax and floating my huge prego belly, Kate was behind me playing with Dylan's Hot Wheels cars. I wasn't paying attention to her really, although I do know she was driving the cars up and down my legs. In the back of my mind I heard her say time to park and then...wham! Yep, you guessed it...Hot Wheel's enema.

#2. A few weeks ago Kate decided to crawl into the bath with me and the first thing she said to me while staring intently at my nipple's was..."yours are big and mine are tiny." Thanks for that Kate. Then a few minutes later still staring at my chest she said to me "I like your big freckles".

(I am aware that I used the word nipple on my blog and I don't feel that great about it.)

Watch and Learn!

I don't know why, but Scott loves to waste money on these games...

There is one at our nearby Wal-Mart that has mini basketballs in it. So I was not very surprised on our date last night when Scott suggested that we go and try to win a ball. So after dinner we went to Wal-Mart to waste our money. Scott's first attempt was for a UofU basketball but no luck. He then went for the High School Musical ball but no luck. I think he was surprised when I asked for a turn. For some reason I said to him in an extremely overconfident, competitive tone...

"Watch and Learn" ...this kind of behavior usually ends in embarrassment for myself, so imagine my delight when on my first try the claw pulled that UofU ball right out of the pile and into my hands. Why does it feel so good to win?

End in Sight!

Well, I'm scheduled to have a C-Section on January 27th. I am of course anticipating the arrival of my new little baby boy! Are babies so much fun. I am not, however, really looking forward to recovering from my insides being cut and stitched back, but hey, I've done it twice before...right?

The past few weeks have been filled with projects, slacking as a parent, downing 7 lbs of ice a week, talking on the phone, sleeping, soaking in 2-3 baths a day, laying down or standing up (never sitting!), Getting out our employee's W-2's, spending lots of lazy time with Scott and the kids, being impatient, being grateful, getting ticked off when they sent home 1/2 of the new biggest loser contestants, 2 inches of regrowth (I'm getting my hair colored tomorrow! Yippee!!!), staring at my ever expanding belly in amazement and shock, singing the Momma Mia soundtrack, checking blogs, and neglecting my house.

I want to thank all of my friends that have been checking in on me! I love you all. I don't know why it feels like time is standing still and I just can't seem to respond back to all your emails and phone calls, but I love you and am thinking about you...,while watching boring daytime TV sipping water and munching ice. I truly feel blessed and think that my friends and family are the greatest!

I'll post the last 9 months of photos and blog catch-up's as soon as I can sit for more than 5 minutes in a chair again!

And to you sweet baby...I can't wait to squeeze you in my arms!
