Hectic Life

Either I am really bad at blogging or my life is hectic. I like to think that my problem is the latter one. A lot of stuff has happened since I last blogged. Here are some of the things that we have done. I actually have pictures this time also.


Painting

We have started to paint the baby's room. We have a coat of primer on it and I am really hoping that we have it done before he comes!



Kyle could not help himself he had to paint my face.



Anniversary Presents

Our anniversary is not for another week, but we got our presents early this year.


I got a new ring because my wedding ring no longer fits. It is very pretty and will fit great on my right hand once my ring fits again.



We found a really good deal on a TV and Kyle has been wanting a new one for over a year now. It was such a good deal that we could not pass it up. He was really excited and could not wait to get home to set it up.



I know we are both very spoiled!!!



Baby Shower

My mom and my aunts threw me a wonderful baby shower last saturday. It was a lot of fun and we got a lot of stuff that we really need. Thank you everyone for coming and for putting so much work into it. It was a great shower with cute decorations and great food! I have such a wonderful family!



These are two of my best friends from high school, Brooke and Ali



Here I am sitting in front of the presents (it was a test shot for my mom, so that is why I look so cheesy, but the test shot was the only picture that she took)


Teresa and Landon had a lot of fun with my camera and I think the pictures are so cute!






Rusty

I had to show this cute picture of Rusty. I woke up from my Sunday nap to see his Sunday nap. He loves to be in the blinds and have the sun hit him! I call him my sun bathing puppy.




36 Weeks

It is crazy that there is only four weeks left before Jackson's due date. It is going to be here before we know it. We finally got a car seat yesterday which helped my stress level a ton. I did not want to worry about going in to labor and not having a car seat. The bad news of the week is that Jackson is breech, so we are praying that he will turn so that we do not have to have him flipped. If he doesn't then hopefully the doctor can get him flipped! I cannot wait until he comes though. I am ready to start the next stage in my life.

Baby Curtains

I was really spoiled this year and my mom got me a rotary cutter, mat and ruler so that I could start sewing and Kyle got me a sewing machine. I have had them since the beginning of May and did not open up the sewing maching until last week. Yesterday I decided that I needed to use them, so I decided to make the baby curtains for his room. It was a lot of fun and I think that they turned out pretty cute. I want to make other things for his room now. It is a lot of fun!


Here is a picuture of one side...


We are in the middle of painting the nursery so I cannot hang them up yet, but it is nice to have something to decorate it with once it is ready!

Catch Up

I was noticing that it has been a long time since we posted anything. Life has been a little crazy this past month. Kyle finished his spring semester of school last week and decided that he did not want to take summer classes with the baby coming. I am grateful that he decided that. This way we have more time to spend together. I only have about ten more week until the baby comes! I cannot wait until he is here and I can see and hold him. He is growing big and moving a lot. Every time we go to the doctor she says that everything looks good, so hopefully it stays that way. I am getting a little tired and my body does not like it very much, but we are almost done. Last weekend Katie went through the temple and I was excited because I was able to make it through with her. I was a little worried about the baby kicking me and making me have to go to the bathroom, but he was good. Kyle was not able to go which was sad. I have never been without him, but sometimes work just gets in the way. This weekend is her wedding and it will be nice when it is over. Last night we had her reception in Salt Lake and it was beautiful. My mom did such a good job. She really is amazing. Other than that our life is finally slowing down a little bit, but just for a couple more months.

What for Dessert?

Last night after dinner Kyle was in the mood for some dessert. First he wanted homemade oreos, but I did not have a cake mix. Then he decided that he wanted Rice Krispie Treats. I had marshmallows, but no Rice Krispies. He decided that we should make them with Frosted Flakes since we did not have Rice Krispies. They turned out to be really good. They are very sugary, but anyone who knows Kyle knows that with him the more sugar the better. I think that they would be really good with regular Corn Flakes also and would not be quite as overwhelming the sweet department. For any of you who, like us, like a simple dessert every now and then try making Rice Krispie Treats with Frosted Flakes.
