Good Friends = Good Times

I really had a great time this weekend. Thanks to my good friends here in Lansing I had a wonderful baby shower. Saturdays and kids can make ones schedule very busy so I do appreciate all that came out and want to say I missed those who couldn't make it. It was so fun, with good food and games and really cute decorations. Thanks Amberly for putting that all together for me, it really means a lot. I just can't wait to actually use the cute clothes and toys I received.


Late Saturday night Kyle took a break from the Library, where he now resides, and we went to see the movie 21. It was pretty cool and enjoyable to hang out with him, but my feet and legs got so swollen from sitting through the movie, not sure how much longer I can do that. I am just really wanting these next 6 to 7 weeks to go by fast. Well for those who want to see my belly here is an updated picture at the end of 32 weeks.

7 Interesting Facts

Well my friend Melanie tagged me to write 7 interesting facts about myself, so here it goes.

1. I have only broken one bone in my body, which was my middle finger when I was in 1st or 2nd grade from falling off our stair banister.

2. Last 4th of July I came in 2nd place for my age group in the 5k race.

3. I was able to have a one of a kind tour of the White House that no other public "everyday" person is able to get and go through secret passages that the President takes underground to go from building to building, it was like I got the regular tour plus the behind the scenes show.

4. I love to snow ski and have been doing it since I was 5 years old, so nobody better get in my way when I come flying down the mountain.

5. I have traveled to 10 different countries

6. I want to have 5 kids

7. When I first met Kyle I told my brother Dylan to become friends with him so I could get the hook-up and flirt with my brothers friend, since I thought he was so good looking.

Back to gray skies and pot holed roads

Oh how lovely it is to be back in the state of Michigan after spending time in California. Well it is nice to see my husband again, sleep in my own bed and see my good friends, but that warm sunshine really made me hesitant on coming back. It was so fun to spend time with my family, everyone was in town so we had the chance to catch up and eat lots of food. I think I went to Del Taco 3 times in the 5 days I was there, I really just can't get enough. I am not really looking forward to my flight back again to L.A. in a month since that 5 hour flight time really was not fun and was very uncomfortable. I didn't realize how much my legs and feet could swell. I am disappointed with Delta, cause they have done away with their snack pack, so all I had to eat during my 6 hour trip was cheese crackers, if I wanted anything else it would cost me. It seems a little ridiculous to me. Well tomorrow is my 2 months left mark and I am so excited and can't wait for these months to go by, even though I know they will probably go slow since I am anticipating it so much.

One Week till Vacation!!!


Yeah, in exactly one week I will be flying to sunny California to spend the weekend with my family. I am really looking forward to a little get-a-way and to take time out of the cold. All my cousins will be in town since we will be celebrating my grandma's 90th birthday, so it will be fun to see all of them. I have planned to take a full suitcase of stuff to leave at my parents house so then I can bring more stuff when I go back again in April. I really don't know how I will get everything back to Michigan at the end of the summer. I have realized I only have a few more Sundays with my primary kids and I am really going to miss them. They definitely keep Kyle and I entertained during church, and I will really miss all their crazy, not sure if they're true, stories. I am looking forward to this semester coming to a close cause this research and writing class Kyle has been taking is one big headache. It has been fun though with all these girls expecting and having baby showers cause I love shopping for baby clothes. They are just too cute and I love watching the girls open their gifts and get so excited. Like I've said before I just have to try and contain myself when I walk into Babies r Us and not go totally crazy.
