Bye bye Disneyland..

Well after 3 days of Disney I won't lie I am ready to move on to the next adventure! We had so much fun, but for a girl that is 6 months prego walking as much as I did you wouldn't blame me. We started driving to Cali at 8pm and arrived here at about 5am, slept for a bit and the went straight to Disney ALL day long!!! Along with the next two days. Rylee had so much fun!! I'm glad we were able to bring her here to experience this. We had the chance to go on a ton of rides, shows and she got a lot of signatures from her favorite characters:) plus Aaron spoiled us with a great dinner at Midieval times. Both of us have always wanted to do this, but I think Rylee had just as much fun as we did there. It was worth every penny!! And when it's $60 dollars a plate it better be! This isn't the end of our vacation though, we head to laguna beach tomorrow and then San Diego for more fun:)

24 weeks..

So close yet still so far away! There are some days that I feel huge and some days that I feel like my belly hasn't had much change at all. I know I know I still look tiny, but that doesn't mean I don't feel big. You kind of forget that feeling of a soccer ball in front of you after not having it for 3 years. Not to mention going from 109 to 130 (yes I have already gained 21 pounds) is a HUGE change for someone that was so tiny. Putting shoes on and shaving my legs are getting a little hard, but I have Aaron that will help and Rylee is very eager to help with putting my shoes on. The little one is about 12 inches long give or take and weighs 1 pound give or take. She moves around like crazy especially when I am eating yummy food:) Its so much fun to watch her kick from the outside! Sometimes I feel like she is going to kick right through my ribs or right through my skin. I love that she likes to hang out very low only cause I have had enough issues with my ribs from my enormous boobs so I will enjoy that while I can. I have been having "braxton hicks" like crazy since about 20 weeks. I hate to even call them braxton hicks only because they aren't just the tightening feeling, its full blown contractions! If you would have asked me 5 weeks ago if I remembered what a contraction was like I wouldn't have been able to tell you. All I remember with Rylee was they HURT, but I completely forgot the feeling till one day at the store with Aaron when I was 20 weeks. I literally had to sit down in the middle of the store and told Aaron we had to leave now! By the time we got to the door I was much better. Since then I have had them on and off ever since! Some are lighter than others but then there are some that I have to excuse myself from whatever we are doing. My doctor pretty much said welcome to baby #2 pregnancy. I am happy to know that they are 100% normal and its nothing to worry about. Other than that everything is great!!

I have officially been on my first Spring Break now for almost a week and it has been really nice! My classes aren't so hard yet so even Spring Break doesn't really feel like a Spring Break to me. It pretty much feels like any other day just without my easy homework.
Its been a pretty busy week doing different things here and there and very enjoyable! I had a girls dinner with 2 or my good friends. We literally just sat at the table from 6 to 9 talking about life in general. It was really good to go out with great girlfriends without alcohol (seeing as none of us drink anymore) and just talk about our lives, No lame drama just fun adult conversations.
Then today my Brother-in-law had is graduation from Neumont receiving his Bachelors degree in computer science and all of us couldn't be more proud of him. He has worked his butt of to get where he is and has accomplished something amazing. 
I am so excited for Saturday! We are going to the festival of colors with a big group of people and then we usually hike up to the hot springs in Spanish fork. Of course only my feet will be able to enjoy that, but I'm sure they will need it after the long hike. Then a great relaxing day on Sunday followed by the start of our trip to DISNEYLAND! Rylee is so excited, she wakes up every morning with a count down till we can go and anyone she sees she has to tell them she is going there and will see lots of princesses and ride in the tea cups. I love that girl more than she will ever know!!

Oh March you have been good to us!!

The last 3 weeks or so have been simply amazing!! Aaron hasn't worked for 3 weeks and we have done nothing be spend time together as a family. I love it so much and really don't want it to end, but I guess all good things come to an end sooner or later. With how amazing the weather has been ( Minus the last couple days) we have spent most of our time outside doing anything and everything we could from cleaning cars and yard work to parks, walks and zoo. There was one day that it was so nice we actually got sunburned on our faces. As bad as that is for your skin all I know is I have missed that sunburn feeling! Then of course on the 26th we leave for DISNEYLAND!! This month has pretty much been fantastic!!

Should I stay or should I go....

I can not make up my mind about staying on FB or not. I love being able to keep in touch with people through there and knowing that FB is the easiest place for family that lives out of the country to keep in touch. Honestly though I have an addiction! I love FB so much I am constantly looking at it and there are days it consumes my whole day! You know it is getting bad when your 3 year old child knows about FB and will ask you if you are playing on FB. Not only that but with being back in school I feel that It would help me focus more on school. So pretty much my pros to deleting it would be to become more and better involved with my family and school. Sounds like some good reasons to me!? I definitely would keep my blog though, but I am thinking of a private blog due to creepy stalkers. I will make a post later if and when I decide to make my blog private that way people can send me emails to keep following me.
So I guess I will continue thinking and debating on this subject!!!

Perks of pregnancy...

So I'm going on day 6 of this cold and last night was by far the worst! I slept maybe 3 hours due to now a horrible ear ache. I finally was so fed up with it I told Aaron I was going to the doctor as soon as it opened! It takes a lot for me to actually go to the doctor so that has to tell you something!
Morning arrives and Aaron gets on the phone with my doctor and works his magic, comes back in the room and says, "We can pick up your antibiotics in a couple hours." I was so happy that my doctor just sent in a prescription for me. Oh the joys of being pregnant and getting what you ask for. My plan is to be in bed all day today! Oh wait that's all I have done for 6 days now. I'm so glad Aaron has had the opportunity to stay home from work and take care of his girls. He is a great daddy and husband:)
