Memorial Day

Loving this three day weekend so far. I have been extremely exhausted and tired though. We went to the Bees baseball game on Friday night and I couldnt make it to the end and Matt and I had to leave early.. I felt bad because we went with my mom, dad and Kyrie. They stayed and we left and jumped on the trax train and headed home. It was still alot of fun. Yesterday we went up the canyon and had a bbq with alot of the family! It was so nice. I could have stayed up there all night!

In honor of Memorial Day,

We come, not to mourn our dead soldiers, but to praise them. — Francis A. Walker

Thank you to all those who sacrificed their lives for my/our freedom..

Belly Pic!

I am the worst blogger known to man, Im pretty sure! Sorry for slackin.. Making a baby is hard work haha. I became anemic during my second trimester and that about killed me, energy-wise. I am on iron and it is helping for the most part, but still really tired. Im getting the whole swollen fingers, ankles, and feet. Its not all that bad. I am 31 weeks along! I am getting so close! :) I finally got that Big Ol' Belly I wished for. I cant say I regret wishing for it, because now I am not so scared of losing her.. Its more real now! She moves all day long, sometimes little flutters, other times I am pretty sure shes practicing kung-fu! I love it, every single tiny movement! I smile randomly when I feel her. She is my baby girl.. I love her so much already. And I KNOW its going to be a million times more once I meet her. Matt is so excited to be a dad! he is going to be the best dad too.. To watch him with Kyrie, Mason and Abby is neat! He is a natural. He worries about them alot and sometimes I have to tell him to not worry so much :) I cant wait to see him with his daughter. She is going to look up to him, I already know that. He has great values, character, so much love, kindness, giving, caring, I could go on all night. I couldnt ask for anyone better to be my babys father. I am so lucky..

Here is my 31 week belly pic! Its GROWING :)

This weekend is Memorial Day! I Can NOT wait for a three day weekend. I don't want to do much, just relax. Imagine that! We are going to a Bee's baseball game Friday night with my mom, dad and Kyrie. They are having fireworks that night too! I am really looking forward to it. Sunday we are going to the Mountains for Memorial Day celebrations with my family. I cant wait to pack a picnic and spend the day in the canyon. Sounds soooo nice. Monday, who knows.. All I know is I get the day off work!!

I am looking forward to all of my baby showers! It is so nice that my work is throwing me one. I would have never expected or thought they would do that. I am very grateful of it! That one is June 5, My moms is June 12 and then My mother in laws in June 19th! All in a row! Ought to be fun! :) :)

I have started planning a huge party for the far future. This year, Notre Dame plays Utah Utes (In South Bend sadly, otherwise I'd be There at the game!!) so therefore I am going to throw a huge, kick-ass party at my house and root for the Fighting Irish!!! I have already picked out what Im going to buy for it, have all my websites lined up to buy all Notre Dame themed plates, cups, cozies, coolers, streamers, etc. I have found Josie her first Notre Dame cheerleader outfit as well and I will buy Matt and I the shirt made for that specific game (says ND vs Ut, first time ever meeting!)! I am inviting everyone interested! Only rule: Must be rooting for Notre Dame haha. Just kidding, a little competition is always fun!

Well time for bed for this tired, pregnant, working fool! Have a good night everyone :) XOXO
