Thankful

Just wanted to take some time out of our busy lives to list some things I'm thankful for this week and every week:

FINALS OVER-I finished mine this morning and Alan finishes his tonight. We are so excited for our break (even if its only two weeks!) Now to wait for grades to be posted....

DECORATING-Now that finals are over, I plan on focusing my break on getting Chad's room set up since I know once Block 3 starts I will be swamped again!

FAMILY-Our niece Brianna got baptized this last Saturday and we were so glad to be a part of it. Hearing everyone's testimony and being there to support each other is what families are all about.

BABY CHAD-There is nothing in this world better than feeling our son in my tummy and sharing those kicks with Alan. I'm worried I will miss him moving around in there once he's here! (But I will also be glad he is here safe and heathly too!)

HUSBAND-It is SO encouraging to have a husband that supports me in every decision I make and uplifts me even when I think I've failed at something. He always makes me focus on the brighter side of things.

and that's it!

Uncle and Jessi

This is what happens when Dan and Sarah are out of town and Uncle and Jessi are playing all day waiting for Aunt Alice to finish work at the office to go home!

Both of them are passed out!

Update

Just an update, Abby FINALLY did birth, 7 pups at my parents house in Cali. Our original plan was she would have the puppies here and Leah would take care of them, but Abby decided it wasn't time so she got to come along to Cali, which meant driving her and 7 pups back to AZ after the weekend. We came home Friday night from the mall with my parents and she had already had 2 pups so Alan and I stayed up till 3am helping her with the rest! Saturday we had a wedding. Our friends Danita and Joe got married and it was a beautiful wedding. They got married in Redondo Beach overlooking the ocean. Danita looked gorgeous. It was nice to see all our friends from home and high school. Sunday we drove home from a nice relaxing weekend with my parents (minus Abby's excitement) to wake up to my last test Monday morning. Just the final to go and Block 2 is over! Cant wait!

Picture Tag!

It's a "PICTURE TAG" and this is how it goes. Go to your pictures and go to the 5th folder. Then open up the 5th picture and post it. Then tag 5 people when you are done. Have fun!

I was tagged by Lindsay! Here is my picture: Its Brianna and Cole...WOW! They have grown!

Waiting Game

So I don't know if I've mentioned that Abby (Our Lab) is pregnant again. I know your thinking "Seriously?" but this time was PURE accident, we were so careful at not letting them together and one morning Alan left for a church activity and had them separated and I woke up to them together, so apparently that's all it took, go figure. :) So I've now managed to talk Alan into fixing Abby after this litter so we don't have this "accident" again. She is now 58 days, last litter came on day 59 so we are waiting for her to pop anytime. Not only that, but this weekend we are headed to Cali for a good friends wedding and put my poor sister Leah (who is not really a huge fan of animals) in charge. Thanks Leah :) We love you! I'll post pictures when she finally has them, I bet we have over 8 this time! She is HUGE! Anyone want a puppy?

Baby Pictures!

Here are more pictures of Chad, sorry they are blurry, they are pictures of pictures!

(The arrows are pointing to his little hot dog, the blob to the left is his foot)FeetFace (looking straight on, not profile)

he is side ways, you have to tilt your head to the right and the left side of the picture is his chin and the right side is his forehead, kinda hard to see

Update

Sorry, I officially stink at updating my blog. These last few weeks have been pretty busy. We managed to have two more birthdays since Cade's, Carson turned one on the 26th , and Leah turned older :) on the 27th. The family got together for Carson's bday at James and Megan's to celebrate. Carson loved getting a cupcake and shoving it into his mouth! It was too cute!

The next weekend Alan and I left on Thursday morning for some time at Mom and Dad's to clear our minds from school, work and all the activities here and have some fun! We had a great time, it's always nice to go home for the weekend! We went to my mom's school for library night, to the mall, and miniature golfing, not to mention ate tons of food, and had a blast! Thanks Dad and Mom!

This last week was jam packed with school all week for both Alan and I and we had some friends visiting from out of town, so this weekend we enjoyed sleeping in and doing nothing. We did manage to go to dinner with David and Lindsay and the Aloha Fest with the Alisa's which was alot of fun too!

This week is Spring Break for both Alan and I, although, being that I have a huge test on Monday I wouldn't call it a "break" but at least I don't have to get up early and go to school or the hospital for a 12 hour shift! It would be nice to have nothing to do but I guess cant complain about studying everyday :( with no school. Tomorrow we have our 2nd Ultrasound which will be fun to go see Chad again. Last ultrasound they called and said I had a low lying placenta so they just are checking to be sure its moved up as my tummy has grown. I'm sure we'll have more pictures to post tomorrow! :)

Hope everyone has a great week!
