You have to watch the cute videos! I always delete my mom's forwards, she is the worst forwarder ever!! haha! She told me that this wasn't just junk and that I need to watch it. So I hope you guys all enjoy :) Thanks mom!

Fun new item!

While Tony and I were up in SL for V day we went shopping at restoration hardware and found this fun item. They are called vacuum bb's, they are little scented bb's. You put a handful into your vacuum bag and every time you vacuum the sent is released! I used them for the first time today and loved them. I got the citrus grapefruit scent and it smelled so good, I kept finding things to vacuum so I could continue to smell the yummy scent! :) You gotta try them, they definetley make cleaning more pleasurable.

Best Cupid Day EVER!!

So I have to gush a little, I'm just so impressed with my great husband! We have decided to switch off each year who plans Valentines Day, this year was Tony's turn. Now I'm not trying to be mean, but Tony has not always been the best gift giver. Example: right after we got engaged it was my birthday, he got me a wedding barbie :( I really didn't mind, it was more funny then anything, but I have given him a "hard time" about it ever since :) Well, he has totally redeemed himself!! This was the best gift/Valentines I have ever received.
The day started with him making me breakfast, he told me he had the whole day planned for us and that I just needed to sit back and relax. We then headed to a matinee showing of He's just not that into you, which I loved! So cute. Following the movie he said he had lunch plans for us at Thanksgiving Point. We got yummy chicken wraps and then went to the ice cream parlor and split a sundae ummm! It was now around 4 o' clock and he said he had a couple more surprises for me, but would not tell me what they were. We got on the freeway heading north, so I figured we were going to SL, I had no idea for what though? We had already seen a movie and had just eaten?? I kept asking, but he would just laugh and say you will see. I was in total shock when we pulled up to the Grand America Hotel and proceeded to park. I still didn't know what we were doing there. I kept saying "why are we here? what are we doing?" he just laughed and was like come on...you know what we are doing...we are staying the night here! I was totally blown away!! We stayed there are first honeymoon night so it has some sentimental value. I couldn't believe that he had planned all this without me knowing. I had packed nothing, not knowing the plans for the evening, but to my surprise Tony had it all covered and had packed a overnight bag for the both of us! So sweet. We checked in and dropped our stuff off in the room and went shopping for a little while in SL, before we retired to our beautiful room. I was on cloud nine, I told him how much I loved everything, he just said there is more! He gave me a whole hour long back massage....ohhhh...it was so wonderful, especially since my back has been hurting so much since I have been preggo. Last, but not least, he pulled out a charm that I had asked for, for my pandora bracelet!! What a wonderful husband!! It will be a Valentines to remember, I feel so lucky!! Thanks for the perfect day Tony, I love you!! XOXOX
I feel bad, all I got for him were v day Krispy Kreme's. I will make it up to him next year though ;) I hope you all had a wonderful V day too!

Look how big I'm getting!!

So here is another pic of my preggo belly! I feel like it has gotten a lot bigger lately! I feel like it can't get much bigger, but I know that it will. I'm kind of starting to wonder just how big am I going to get?! I guess we will just have to wait and see :) My weight has been very consistent lately, I am actually just staying the same, but I feel like my belly is getting bigger. So I'm not quite sure why I have not been gaining weight with the growth? Weird?! I feel him all the time now and sometimes when I'm at work he will move so quick that my stomach moves and I ask my coworkers if the just saw it move! Most of my coworkers are guys, so I think they have been a little freaked out by this question, they just quickly respond "I don't just stare at your belly!" haha! Poor guys, I should probably stop asking them. I think their responses are pretty funny though so I might just keep it up :)

Thanks!


So I was just going through some of my older posts and realized how many great comments you guys have left for me!! I just wanted to thank all of you for your wonderful advise and encouragement. (What better time to tell you then around V-day!) I feel really lucky to be surrounded by such wonderful friends and family!! I also wanted u all to know how much I love being updated by what is going on in your lives. I will try to be better at keeping my blog better updated :) Thanks again for everything! I love all of you!!
So here is a question about Valentines Day....who plans it in your relationship? Tony and I have decided on switching each year who plans the events. What do you guys do? And, what are your plans (if they aren't a surprise) this year for V-day? Love to hear from you :)

Stroller!


So here it is! This is the stroller system my parents got for Tony and I. It is very easy to use, everything is as easy as , push and click. It is a Chicco, which I am hoping is good. I am a little worried at how big it is even when folded, but I noticed most strollers in the same price range were the same size. The colors are pretty neutral for a boy or girl. Overall I really like it! I guess I will really be able to tell when the baby gets here. I am getting quite the little collection of baby items, thanks to my mom! I have some really cute clothes, towels for bath time, a bath, a swing, stroller/carseat (thanks mom and dad), crib (thanks George & Judi), diapers, wipes, chaging station, etc. The best part is almost everything I have so far has been on sale! That is really why I have so much, there have been great sales and I didn't want to pass them up. My mom is the best thrift shopper you have ever seen so she comes home with bags of clothes for like 10 dollars! I'm really not kidding either! I for some reason still feel like I'm missing some things but can't figure out what? Im starting to feel a little nervous for delivery, it will be here before I know it and I think thats what scares me the most! Im almost 30 wks! Ah!

Wow! It's been awhile!

Sorry it has been so long!
Holiday Update
The holidays and everything else kept me away. Christmas was very fun! We spent Christmas with my family and had a great time. I didn't get much of a break though, work is so busy during that time of year. My brother Tate came in town from Kansas and we spent a lot of time playing games with him and family. Tony and I tried to limit the gifts to each other this year, just to save some money. We said no gifts, but I can't do that. So I bought him a cool cardigan at Banana Republic (It was on sale :) I hid it so he wouldn't know I broke our deal. I pulled it out on Christmas and he was all surprised! He really liked it so I was happy. He really surprised me though when he pulled something out he wanted to surprise me with! I really didn't want or thought he would get me anything. He got me a Nintendo DS! I randomly wanted one haha! I know I know I'm a little 13 year old asking for a DS. They are pretty fun though and I have this game called brain age that helps keep your brain on it's toes :) I also got mariokart, which Tony has played WAY more then me lol. The holidays were great.

Preggo Update
I posted a pregnant pic just because I always want to see how people look when they are pregnant and it seems that none of them ever wanted to get their pic taken. Well now I know why! I feel like a fat cow! The last thing I want is a pic to remember how fat I am haha! I am almost 27 weeks along and I already think pregnancy last to long. I know what you are thinking good luck in the next three months! I can already tell they are going to drag by way to slow :( I still have not purchased any maternity clothes and I think I'm going to be forced to very soon. At my last Dr. appt my Dr. looked at my pants (which are held together with a hair elastic!) and said " I don't think you will be able to pull that off for much longer!" I know, but I don't want to buy maternity pants!! My belly button is still a inny!! Yay!! It keeps getting more and more shallow though :( I have a crib already! I found a really cute one that was on sale and I had a coupon on top of the sale, so I went ahead and got it. (Thanks to my in laws who bought it for us!!) It is all set up in our second bedroom, it's kind of weird to see it. I still can not picture myself with a baby! I feel like I'm just playing house or something. I think I'm going to have a HUGE reality check when I can actually hold him!!! SO WEIRD!! Hopefully I don't freak out. I do have a question? How does bath time work? Do I bathe him in the sink? Do I buy a bath bed thingy? Our tub is pretty deep so I think that could be kind of hard to bath him in at first. What did you do? We still have not setteled on a name. We used to battle on names, now we just don't really talk about it cause we get to mad! lol! We are crack heads :) We will figure it out eventually I guess. Well sorry it has been awhile, but please leave comments with any advise you wish you had before you had kids! I'm sure I will need it! Especially breastfeeding, I'm very curious how that all works :) Thanks for being so helpful! Love you all!
