I'm gonna be a Mommy in May!

I'm Pregnant!!!!!!!

I just found out on September 11th that we will be expecting in May! I am still in shock, and I don't think reality has fully set in for me or Scott, but we are so excited. It was perfect timing, since I found out right before our 2 year Anniversary trip to Vegas. Here is what happened. I found out that morning at about 5:50 am, because I honestly couldn't hold it anymore, since I didn't pee all night. I found out all by myself in the bathroom, since everyone was still asleep. When I was waiting for the results to come up, I kept thinking I was setting myself up for disapointment, and I was so nervous. Then I thought that maybe it could happen, and then at the last second I pretty much decided it was impossible, when the Clear Blue test came up saying "PREGNANT"! I just stood there stunned, and then a huge smile crossed my face, and I started jumping up and down screaming silently to myself since everyone was still asleep, and I didn't want Scott to find out yet, since I planned to surprise him later in St. George. So I went back to bed and acted like nothing happened. It was SO HARD. Of course I didn't sleep a wink. As soon as Scott woke up and left to go to a quick work meeting before we left, I ran upstairs and woke up my mom. She was so surprised! All the way to St. George, my stomach was turning as I tried to keep it from Scott! I texted a couple friends, and told them I couldn't hold it in much longer! I am so bad at surprises! I give everything away with my face, but somehow Scott didn't see it! What I did was I bought 2 onesies, 1 fro a boy and 1 for a girl, and put my pregnancy test in between them in a bag for him to open. It was so cute. When I gave it to him on Dixie Rock, he picked the clothes up and didn't realize what they were at first, and then his eyes got big and he said, "Honey?" "Honey!" And when I pulled out the pregnancy test and showed him, he was so thrilled! He hugged and kissed me over and over and said that was the best present he couls have gotten. It was such a wonderful experience. Definitely the second happiest day of my life. (First would be my wedding day) Scott was so dotting for the whole rest of the weekend. It's like he saw me in a different light, a pregnant light :) It was so cute. We called our family and friends and drove the rest of the way to Vegas. More to come on the Vegas trip in another post, since this is big enough!

One change to previous posting...

In regards to the post below, aparently that video is not the same one that will be shown to students. That one will be available to view tomorrow. Hopefully there is no political agenda attached with it, like this other one. I still feel that video below was directed at our children, by the celebrities, and is not right. It still makes my skin crawl.

I am shocked and appauled!

We are NOT a servant to the President! He is a servant to the people, for the people, by the people!! We are NOT in a dictatorship! This video will be shown to our kids in school on Tuesday! It is surrounded by all these good thoughts, but watch till the end. And I quote, " I Pledge to be a servant to Barack Obama". Do we want our kids to see this? It makes me sick.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqcPA1ysSbw

More about this when I can control my language.

3 Birthdays in 1 weekend! FUN!

We had quite the busy weekend! On the 22nd it was my brother Jorden and my brother in law Thomas's birthday. So we had 2 birthday parties planned for Sunday evening. Not only that, but my good friend Jenna's daughter Riley had a birthday on Sunday, and so we had 3 parties to hop around to. It was quite fun. Watching Riley open her gift was so cute. I just love her to pieces! Scott had a lot of fun with her tinker toys! Hanging out with our families was great too. We love them all! Also, I curled my hair for like the first time this year, and so I had to take pictures to document it. I have been told by many that it looked beautiful, so here are a couple of those. We gave Sydney a bath, and she looked so cute and silly I just had to take some pictures of her too. So I hope you enjoy these pics!

Seductive?

Reflexology or Cranial Sacral anyone?

I need people to come and get Reflexology and/or Cranial Sacral from me tomorrow at UCMT!! They are both very relaxing and beneficial. I have times at 7 am, 8 am, or 9 am in the morning, or 5 pm, 6 pm, 7 pm, 8 pm or 9 pm. It's only $25 for 50 min. I hurt my ankle and can't do Swedish massage, so I need your help! Anyone interested? If so, text or call me at 801-616-9925

Alright, I'VE HAD IT!

Due to the fact that I have been trying to not post negative thoughts or feelings, I have not blogged about the recent events that have happened to me. But after tonight, I have HAD IT!!! Ok, it started about 2 1/2 weeks ago. I got very sick with a bad cold, one of the worst I have ever had. Lasted a good week. Missed clinic and work and class. UGH. But it went away, or so I thought. Last week, about Tuesday, I developed ANOTHER cold, but this time it was just in my sinuses. I hoped it would go away, but it stuck around all through my only weekend off this summer, which we planned to have a nice relaxing weekend staying at the Zermatt Hotel in Midway with my family. Along with that, I hurt my wrist last week which felt like I developed Carpal Tunnel Syndrome in one day, by using it wrong at clinic, and after seeing the chiropractor and icing it, it still swelled up like a ballon last weekend, which made me think somehow I broke a little bone, and ended up in the Instacare on the 4th of July. The Doc was baffled. It wasn't broken, but with all the swelling it should have been. I had to wear a brace for a couple of days and heavy anti-inflammatories. Also through the weekend, I had a stomach flu. Sunday, I woke up to my eyes sealed shut with goop. I went to the mirror, and guess what I saw? PINK EYE. OH MY HELL. At this point, my 4th of July weekend was officially ruined. Sinus infection, Wrist pain, Stomach flu, and Pink eye all in one weekend!! I went to the Doc on Monday this week, and sure enough, I had a sinus infection and pink eye. Nobody at work wanted me there. I don't blame them. On top of being contagious, I looked like hell with red eyes gooping all over and no makeup and glasses. HORRIBLE. Well, I thought it was over. I have been feeling better yesterday and today, with the antibiotics flowing through me, and my wrist feeling almost 100% better, I thought the worst was over. BUT OH NO!! Tonight, as I walked down the stairs, in my HORENDOUS heels (i'm an idiot) I FELL! Like half way down the stairs. And owie. I sprained my damn ankle. Scott came running down. I tried to walk it off, and as I was walking out the doors to my car, holding the door frame to walk down the stairs in the garage, Scott slammed the door on my FINGERS!!!! Keep in mind, this happend within a few minutes time of me falling down the stairs. WHAT NEXT? SERIOUSLY!??? I was waiting for me to cross the street and get hit by a car at this point! I think I will take my friend Amanda's advice, to stay indoors, wrap myself in bubble wrap, and don't move! Seriously, has anything like this ever happend to anyone else, or do I just attract bad luck? ARRRGHHHH!!!
