Wow! I can't believe summer is almost over already!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This summer went by pretty fast. We mostly stayed home, but did end up doing a few things. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The biggest thing we did this summer was a trip to Neah Bay to go fishing. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Danny couldn't take a lot of time off so we were only able to actually be there for 2 days of fishing. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
However, the fish just weren't being caught. While we were there they only caught a few fish to keep the first day and zero the next!<br />

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On the way there Danny, Brooklyn and I went to the Woodland Park Zoo! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was so much fun. The highlight of the zoo was the bear! He decided to cool off and have a little swim. Luckily for us we were right on the other side of the pool! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He swam right up to Brooklyn :) It was so cool.<br />

<br /></div>
The other animals were really fun and awesome too of course. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Brookie loved the monkeys and hanging from the vines by their cages.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She also loved the carousel.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At first she wasn't so sure about it, but when it started going up and down she smiled tons. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you haven't been to a Claim Jumper, you need to go. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was so delicious and the restaurant itself was way nice. We loved it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We also spent the night in Seattle so we would only have to drive four hours a day. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Brooklyn did pretty great on drive. We cheated and let her watch Baby Einstein the whole way though.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It worked out for everyone. She normally cries and cries in the car so it was nice to have a happy baby for the 8 hour car trip.<br />
The rest of the summer consisted of trips to Walla Walla, fairs, boating, swimming and parks.<br />
Brooklyn is growing growing growing! Well, she is still pretty small but is hitting milestones like crazy.<br />
She is crawling everywhere and she is fast. I will turn my back for a second and she will be clear across the room. She has also been pulling herself up on everything in site. She is so naughty getting into everything. She loves wires of any kind! I never thought I would have to be baby proofing our house this soon.<br />
She is so much fun now. The newborn stage is precious but this stage is so fun.<br />
Although chasing her around the house pretty tiring its so fun to watch her. She is always learning. She takes everything around her in. I can see her little brain soaking up everything whenever we go anywhere new.<br />

I have just been busy taking care of Brooklyn but she is a handful.<br />
I have been able to read a lot of really great books during her naps and the house actually stays clean.<br />
I love being a stay at home mom. So much better than teaching. I can do things that I never had time for.<br />
I have been trying lots of new recipes and working out every day. Danny and I have also started to watch less TV and it's so nice to just have time together to play games and exercise together.<br />
Danny has been busy working both of his jobs. I don't like his night job. I love the people he works for but I hate that he works nights. I don't like to be alone at night so I have been staying with family the nights that he works. He is trying to get into the HVAC career but it's harder to get in than he thought. We are really hoping for something though so he can get started on it. Even with his busy schedule he still has time to do sweet things for me! He always gives me massages when I ask him. He told me that even though it annoys him sometimes he still does it because he likes to make me happy. This morning he woke up early and I thought he was taking a shower but right before he left he told me he had a surprise for me and handed me a clue for a treasure hunt around the house. I then fell back asleep. I woke up and remembered about the clue so I went on a little treasure hunt around the house! It was so much fun. In the end my prize was two tickets to Beauty and the Beast for a date night next month! The broadway show is coming to Kennewick and we are going! Ladies, I got a keeper :)<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">We have recently discovered the joys of Baby Einstein.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Brooklyn loves it. She can be super fussy and we will turn it on and she calms down. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I especially love putting it on during the day for a little while so she can be entertained while I am cleaning or getting other stuff done.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I also have been able to do a few crafts lately.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I used Brooklyn's feet and some ideas from pinterest to make this one :)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">We also celebrated mothers day for my first time.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It was really nice. Danny cooked all day for me. Breakfast,lunch, dinner and even dessert! Okay I helped a little bit but he did most of it. We had steak and pasta for dinner! It was delicious. He also made Andes mint cookies which turned out great! I got a cute hand painted mug with Brooklyn's foot print on it, a necklace with her birthstone, some perfume and a massage! It was an awesome day :) </span></div>

Baby was awake for 4 hours today without a nap!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That's the most she has ever gone so far...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Needless to say someone, or someONES were cranky.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally, she slept.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I decided to make dinner so I went to get the rice cooker.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I keep it on the highest shelf and therefore, couldn't reach it .</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Luckily Danny was home to rescue me in my shortness.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As I called for him to help me I looked down and saw this...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">Alright people keep asking me to write about Brooklyn's birth so that all may know what all went down.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">If you are not into long drawn out stories then feel free to exit your window and just know that in the end the baby came out healthy and everything is great :) </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We wake up and anxiously wait for the hospital to call us in for our scheduled induction. It's 10 am and still no call so we decide to call in and make sure that we are even on the list. I made Danny call because if we didn't get to go I was going to be super sad. I watch his face for any signs of good or bad news...he looks crestfallen and starts asking where we are at on the list and if she knows when we might be able to go in after all. I start to cry...meanwhile he hangs up the phone and comes to give me a hug and says that we are #4 on the list. #4!!!! This is horrible news to me to have to wait even longer than I have already waited for my little one to come. The nurse told him that by Sunday afternoon we should get to go in. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Sunday, March 16th:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We wake up anxiously waiting for the call to come yet again...and wait and wait and wait and wait and wait. Then, Danny decides to call again. He talks to the lady and she says we are now #1! Yay!!! She says that we will most likely be called in that evening to be induced :) We are super excited. They tell us to come in and do an NST to make sure that baby is ok. We go and get the test done but they send us home with the promise that early Monday morning we will for sure get called. More crying ensues... so Danny needs to take off work. Danny tells his boss he isn't coming into work. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Monday, March 17th (Morning):</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We wake up at 9am...(not early) and still no call. Danny calls the hospital to find out what is going on and she says that the earliest they can get us in is maybe maybe that evening but most likely Tuesday. He hangs up the phone angrily and I cry yet again...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">He calls work to try to get his shift back but they have already given away the first half of the day. We decide to eat, shower and get on with our day even though we are both unhappy (I was devastated at this point). When I got out the shower Danny came running up the stairs yelling "Yatta" (from Heroes meaning I did it). He tells me that we both have a missed call and voicemail from the hospital! We get to go in :) :) :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Monday, March 17th (afternoon):</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We get to the hospital at 12:30 pm and get checked in and are told that they will be RIGHT with us...yeah, right. We are in there for 3 hours waiting. Finally the nurse comes back in and gets all our information. Then the doctor comes in and says that they are going to try to soften my cervix by using this pill that is not taking orally...no fun. The pill takes 4 hours to work. The doctor says she'll be back at 8pm to check. It's 4 pm. So Danny and I decide to play games and watch movies to pass the time quickly. At about 6pm I start to really feel the contraction hit every 2 mins. The doctor comes back at 8pm and checks. I am now dilated to a 3. She says that the next step they want to try is this weird string thing that also is not taken orally. But, she says that my contractions are too strong and too close together to try it yet. It's 8pm...they want me to eat dinner and let my contractions lessen. What the heck? Why do they need to lessen? I thought that they were a good thing. Apparently the contractions weren't moving the baby down and if they tried the next thing right then the baby would most likely be in distress from too much going on. So I was to eat dinner and wait an hour...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Monday Night 11Pm:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Doctor comes in and puts in the string thing and says that it take 12 hours to work. 12 HOURS!!! So I have to have this weird thing that she described as a string but really it's more like a half and inch ribbon that is like 6 inches long...up in my business for 12 HOURS! O and by the way, this whole 12 hours is late at night when I should be sleeping but instead am in active labor with 2 mins apart contractions that are hurting...like crazy. I could've gotten an epidural at any time but I didn't want one because the labor process was already slow enough as it was. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Tuesday, March 18th (Morning):</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I get out of bed to use the restroom at 7am...the ribbon thing falls out...it's not supposed to come out til 11am. I call the nurse and she says its fine and it happens all the time anyways. 8am the doctor comes in and says that I am now contracting on my own and she wants to wait and see if I progress any further before trying the last thing: pitocin. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So here I am laying in bed with really fun contractions...(not really) and just waiting to see if it does anything. 8am-12pm....more contractions more waiting. Still nothing. 12pm the nurse comes in and offers me some pain medication but not the epidural...just fentanyl. But it kicks in and feels a lot better than I did before. 1pm: The doctor comes in and says they are going to start me on pitocin now to see if that will kick me into gear because apparently I am having these contractions for no reason...as in they aren't even helping the process just making me hurt. They offer me an epidural before the pitocin and I decide to take it. At this point we have already been in the hospital for over 24 hours so if I get slowed down by the drugs who cares. The anesthesiologist comes in to give me the epidural and has to poke me in 4 different spots before he finally finds the right one. The pain instantly goes away and I am floating in bliss :) except still no baby. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">3pm. The doctor comes back in and breaks my water. He tells me that the "water" in my baby's amniotic sack is actually non existent because the baby had apparently pooped in there awhile ago and is swimming around in it. They decide to pump a liter of saline in there to try and thin out the poop so there is less chance of the baby inhaling the poop and getting pneumonia when she comes out. He then tells me that if she does have pneumonia she will be taken directly to the NICU and I won't even get to see or hold her until I can walk myself over there. He then leaves the room promising to return soon. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The nurse that is monitoring everything tells us that the baby's heart rate is remaining the same throughout this stage of active labor and it should be changing going up and down with contractions. She says that if it remains the same we will have to do a c section. She also checks the baby and says that it is "molding" which I guess means that it's head is starting to take on the form of the opening of my pelvis from pushing against it so much. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">4pm: the nurse comes back in the room and says that it's not looking good. She goes to get the doctor. Meanwhile, I cry...surprise surprise. 4:30pm the doctor comes into the room and tells us our options. Option 1-Stop pitocin and wait 20 mins and then start the WHOLE process over again and see if it works the second time. And if not then they will end up doing a c section. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Option 2- C section ASAP. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">He tells us that he will give us a few minutes to decide. I start to cry...again. We decide that a c section is probably the best thing for the baby at this point. We don't want her to go into distress and have to be an emergency c section with all that stress. I was really scared. Mostly I was scared that something was wrong with the baby and that's why she wasn't coming out. I was a little bit scared for me as well. I mean, a c section is a big deal that's major surgery. Danny and I said a prayer and then he gave me a blessing. I felt a lot better after the blessing. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">4:45 pm: The doctor comes back into the room and asks us what we wanted to do. The nurse already has scrubs waiting for Danny to change into. We tell him the plan and he leaves to go get everything ready. Then I get the REAL drugs. They come in and numb me basically from my chest down. I loved that feeling. It helped me relax and made me super sleepy. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Next, I get wheeled into the OR and get transferred to the operation table. The doctors and nurses go over all of my information and then they bring Danny in to sit by me. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">5:15 Pm: the first cut happens. The doctor asks if I felt anything...I was feeling nothing at the moment. It was great. Then they start telling me that I will feel tons of pressure and they started to push the baby down from the top of my uterus out the incision. They weren't lying about all the pressure. It was crazy how hard they were pushing. I was sure that they were going to squish the baby. I was told later that the female doctor was up off the floor pushing with all her might. I heard the doctor say "Hair, I see hair" and then "This isn't a newborn, it's a toddler!" I was getting a little panicked thinking my baby was going to come out weighing 15 pounds. They kept saying how big she was. Then I heard it...the tiniest of sounds. The baby was crying, at first it was just a little squeak and quickly turned into louder cries. I instantly started crying. I looked at Danny and he was a little teary eyed as well. I saw them take the baby to the corner and signal for Danny to come over. I was sad that I didn't get to see her closer or hold her on my chest like most women get to. The NICU people were there and checked her out and said that she was healthy and that she had no problems. Then they cleaned her a little and handed her to her daddy. He was so happy. The look on his face was priceless and even though I was/am jealous that he got to hold her first it was the cutest thing to see her in his arms. He asked if he could bring her over to me and they said absolutely! So he brought her to me and placed her little face next to mine and I gave her a kiss on the cheek and tried to snuggle her with my face a little bit. Then, they had to take her away to weigh her and stuff while I got all sewn and stapled up. The doctor told me that there was no way that her head or shoulders would've fit through my pelvis without causing harm to her or me or both. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">About a half hour later I got wheeled into the room and saw my mommy in the hallway. It was really comforting to see her there and I'm glad that she knew I was ok. Then I got to hold my precious daughter and I cried some more. It was the best feeling in the world. It was a super long wait and a complicated journey but Brooklyn is worth anything and everything I had to go through and will ever go through. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">She is my baby and nothing can replace the feeling I have when I hold her or look at her. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Ok Baby B....it's time to come out now.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">As in...NOW! Anytime would be good for me. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Tonight...in an hour...a minute...a second....Come out!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">OK you can stay in there as long as you need to but really I would love it if you came soon :) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We are at week 37 and everything is ready for baby to come. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We have all our essentials ready to go. Now it's just a waiting game. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">To anyone reading this, pregnancy is not as bad as I thought. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> But at the same time, I would LOVE for it to be over. Every day I tell the baby that she can come :) Sometimes I even order her to come out. haha...Weird, I know. I am getting impatient and uncomfortable. Also, tired of working...unless she comes early I have exactly 9 more days to work! WAHOO!!! I am so excited to be done. But most importantly, I am excited for my new job. Being a mom. I have waited for this day my whole life and it's finally getting close. Sometimes I am so happy! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Also, I am terrified. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">What if I'm not the mom that I want to be? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I guess everyone gets scared at some point and especially at the beginning. I am so happy and blessed to have Danny to support and help me through this new stage in our lives :) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It will also be nice to have family close by in case I need my own mommy to help me through this :) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Brooklyn, we can't wait for you to be here! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">I can't believe how far along I am now!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It's crazy to think that in about a month and a half we'll have our own little person :) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I feel like the pregnancy has gone by pretty quickly but sometimes I feel like the end will never come. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Thank goodness we are on the downhill side of things. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">As far as pregnancy symptoms go I am doing pretty well. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Since little Baby B is getting bigger my tummy ends up being uncomfortable all the time. Especially sitting up in a chair cuz it squishes her even deeper into my rib cage ( or so it seems). The past month or so she has found a favorite spot to be but unfortunately it is not my favorite spot for her to be. She likes to be in my ribs on my right side. This is very uncomfortable and a lot of times leads to her laying on my vena cava and putting the right side of my body to sleep or just making it super hard to breathe at times. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">One of the most annoying things is that I have one option for sleep. My left side. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I have also recently been waking up about 4 times a night having to stumble into the bathroom. And let me tell you, getting out of bed is not very fun as it is but especially at 33 weeks pregnant, in the middle of the night, and when the left half of my body doesn't function because it has fallen asleep from being laid on constantly. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Enough about pregnancy....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So the holidays were really fun this year. We got to spend time with both families but it was kinda crazy and felt rushed with both. But at least we got to see them :) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We also went on a date to a hockey game for New Years Eve. It was a lot of fun. We got to sit in the front row right against the glass. The action was right by us the whole game almost! Danny had been whining about wanting to go to a game forever but he always had to work when they played or I had to work the next day so I was sneaky and got some tickets for his Christmas present. It was a lot of fun. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I have been super busy the past couple of weeks after the break. I had a 2 week sub job in a 6th grade classroom( my least favorite grade to teach). I hate middle school! It is not fun. The kids are so misbehaved all the time and don't have any respect for anyone. It is ridiculous. On top of the bad behavior I had to plan the lessons myself based on an outline of what needed to be covered. By the end of those 2 weeks I was so exhausted! Luckily I get a 4 day weekend to rest before it's back to more subbing. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Danny decided to take the quarter from school off because for some reason he got dropped from financial aid and we don't have $2000 just laying around especially with the baby on the way soon. So he is currently in the process of looking for a second job to be able to get some extra money when I stop working and have the baby. So keep your fingers crossed and keep him in your prayers so he can find something that will work for him right now and help out our little family that is about to get a tad bit more expensive. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">So I'm now 27 Weeks along and my belly feels huge and looks huge. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I have started sleeping less and less due to being uncomfortable. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I have also started having really bad back pain. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Baby seems to always be stretched out diagonally across my stomach. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">To sum it up...I am UNCOMFORTABLE!!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It just barely hit this week. Before that I was feeling fine all the time and didn't know why people kept asking me if I was feeling uncomfortable yet. Now I know and I also know that it is just going to keep on getting worse and worse. But, in the end we will have a sweet little baby girl, which will make this all worth it. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Only 13 weeks left! It's crazy how slow time seems sometimes and then how fast it seems at others. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I can't wait for baby to be here with us, but at the same time we have a ton to get ready for still! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">On a completely different note we put up all our Christmas decorations this week and got our tree! It's a little smaller than I am used to but it was like half the price of the bigger ones so we decided we'd better save some money where we can :) We like it though. It's a pretty fat little tree but it's nice because it is bushy and full. We are busy busy right now. Danny is finishing up his classes and getting ready for finals next week! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I am still subbing every day and running to different schools all the time. It is totally wearing me out. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">All in all, life is great and we are having a lot of fun even with being busy. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We got to see both families for Thanksgiving so that was nice. It's nice that they are both pretty close to each other so that even when we move a little ways away we will still be able to see everyone for holidays :) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Well, that's about it for now!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Baby B is addicted to sugar...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I like me some sweets but baby seems to love them.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The only thing I ever really crave are sweet things. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I made Danny buy me some See's Chocolates the other day because they looked way too good and I didn't even care that they were so expensive or that my mom will be making almost that exact candy in about a month. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Baby is super hyper and moving all the time now. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We can see her little kicks and karate chops through my clothes now!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It's so crazy to think that there is a little person inside of me punching me and prodding me all day. Sometimes she just keeps on kicking over and over and over again without stopping for like 20 seconds. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It's so exciting to me. I love it when she moves at work because it makes me feel like a have a secret only between me and her. The kids have no idea what is going on inside of my tummy. </span><span style="font-size: large;">It's probably the thing that I'll miss most about being pregnant. </span><span style="font-size: large;">No one can tell when it is happening unless I mention something.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> At least for now, but when she starts getting bigger and bigger it'll probably become easier to see what is happening and maybe people will even be able to see her little feet and know that I am receiving a huge kick! I wouldn't put it past her. She is soooooo squirmy. I love it :) </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Wow time is flying!!!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This is just a quick update on things. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I am subbing every day now and it is exhausting but has its moments that make it worthwhile. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Yesterday I subbed in a kindergarten class and they were so sweet and cute with lots of hugs and stories.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Today I subbed in 2nd grade and a girl gave me 2 roses and another one drew me a heart and it said for Mrs. Mears on it. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">They are so much fun and so precious. It makes me miss my little ones at Spectrum. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Okay now onto baby talk. So baby has lately decided that her favorite place to kick/punch/jump on...is my bladder. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This is not the best thing being a teacher. There is just no time to go to the bathroom! Luckily today I had a para in my class for a little bit and was able to run out of the room before I had an accident. I'm serious...some days I feel like I am near death by embarrassment from wetting my pants. Luckily I haven't done so yet. There is always the chance though so don't be surprised if my next post is about having an accident at school. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So here is the baby bump at 24 weeks! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">23 Weeks!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So this morning I woke up and it was just another day...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I went to school and was subbing at a school that I sub at every other week. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">But today was different everyone was asking me if I was having a baby. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">You think they would've noticed before since I just subbed there 2 weeks ago. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">All day I kept on getting asked about it and I was wondering if I must look more pregnant now or something. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So Then I really looked in the mirror with a critical eye. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">And THIS is what I saw! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6qyOJeSjGygyil2c_T_6R1-hECqfT2CGBbHUMCPOX2EaUcdgULDZ7SgOlLjiLgNB6qUZG_kDG4puhYa4PYxScoV8dh2bN-ARuFO4pi-pacxOng5dkz0BCP9HVlSc_Ho9JAbgUxrMLPDQ/s1600/Fall+2013+086.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6qyOJeSjGygyil2c_T_6R1-hECqfT2CGBbHUMCPOX2EaUcdgULDZ7SgOlLjiLgNB6qUZG_kDG4puhYa4PYxScoV8dh2bN-ARuFO4pi-pacxOng5dkz0BCP9HVlSc_Ho9JAbgUxrMLPDQ/s320/Fall+2013+086.JPG" width="240" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So I decided that today was NOT just another day. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Today was the day that my pregnant belly popped out to the beginning of its hugeness.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I am only like 5 months pregnant! I still have 4 months to go until Baby B is here. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I can only imagine how gigantic my belly will be by then! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">On the bright side, I look pregnant now and not just super...you know.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I found this on pinterest.... but it was a super expensive etsy item</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So I decided I could free hand it </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I'm pretty happy with how it turned out</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I'm really excited to start making some baby crafts as well!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Baby is a girl :) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We are so excited!!!!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The ultrasound appointment went really well. There was only one thing that they weren't able to see.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The doctor said that they were supposed to see this part of the heart and they couldn't get a pic of it. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">But then he said they did get a good picture of the 4 chambers and that eliminates 90% of any heart defects. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So if they had seen the other part it only eliminates another 5% of problems. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">He said 3 times that it was nothing to worry about or stress over. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So for now we are trusting that she is healthy and has a strong little heart <3</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Having the ultrasound was a lot of fun and excitement. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It was so comforting to see her and know that everything they could see was healthy and strong. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Our ultrasound tech was really nice and super friendly. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">As she was doing the ultrasound she was telling us what everything was and that our baby was doing great and was super active! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Which is good because it shows she is healthy. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Baby B was being super wiggly! She was moving all over the place like a naughty!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The ultrasound tech kept trying to get pictures of things for the doctor to look at and for us on our print out and DVD but baby kept squiggling. We loved seeing her cute little body! She was so tiny but it was fun because she had arms and legs and a cute little face that we could see. It was funny because there would just be this big dark spot on the screen and then all the sudden her little face would peek through for a second and then it was gone. She looked kinda like she was playing peek a boo with us already! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It was so fun when she said that the baby was a girl. I got a little teary eyed and looked over at Danny and he just had a big ol' grin on his face. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It's nice to have tangible and visual proof to know that the baby is actually in there. Sometimes I get scared that something is wrong because she isn't moving all the time but then I poke my belly and prod at her until I feel a kick in protest. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I know I'm being an annoying mom already! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It's so fun to feel the little kicks and punches and just squirmy baby movements. </span><span style="font-size: large;">I love when Danny is able to feel some of the kicks too! His face lights up every time with complete joy. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We love our little one and can't wait to get to cuddle her and see her!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Over half way done :) </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">So I figured that pregnancy would not get the best of me emotions wise...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Boy was I WRONG!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">One minute I will be super happy, like out of control almost. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Before I know it I am super mad about any teeny little thing that isn't going right for me. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">And don't even get me started on crying just out of the blue, seriously. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Today I started crying for no reason.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Baby, it's a good thing you are so exciting and will be super cute!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">What I predict you'll look like if a sweet princess:</span></div>

In that two weeks we have tried to unpack everything we own and find space for it. This task has proved to be harder than it first seemed. We decided that we would focus on the upstairs first. We successfully unpacked everything that needed to go in the kitchen and proceeded to decorate. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I had been looking forward to having a whole house to decorate however I wanted! However, the only real additions that we were aloud to make as per our lease were small nail holes. So the light pink shiny old lady wallpaper that I despise had to stay...and sadly the old lady type furniture in the front room. I have grown used to this however and learned to live with it. I have been trying to find cute and cheap ways to decorate and one place that I have found to help me with ideas is PINTREST! I love it :) I have already done 3 crafts from pintrest for our new house and have a few more planned for the near future. I am so excited! It is finally coming together the way that I wanted! I would take some pictures but sadly....we lost our camera somewhere in the moving process and have to wait to buy a new one. But when we get one I will definitely post some :) </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">So...about the title of this blog post...I'm sure some of you are wondering what that's all about. Well, yesterday morning we awoke to the wonderful reality of a flooded basement. Danny and I ran around panicking that we had done something to cause it. There were 3 inches of water on the entire basement floor and in the storage room the ceiling had collapsed in the corner and boxes and such were soaked. Did I mention that we are renting this house from an older couple while they are on their mission and she is like the queen of food storage? I mean seriously, this lady is ready for the end of the world. As soon as we figured out the water was coming from the master bedroom bathroom Danny realized he had to break into the window (don't worry he had permission to do so) to get into the room since the couple had locked the door on us in case we thieved...I guess. Anyways...we got it all figured out and the lady called people to come in and fix the sink and now there is a crew working on our house for the next 18 days. Yesterday was spent ripping up all the carpet and starting to move things out of the storage room. Today is tearing out damaged walls and moving the rest of the stuff out. Lucky for me I have an excuse to not help :) Not that I need to help with all these guys doing things. But yeah, pretty much it sucks. The End</span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07879408564115324125noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3909621750439310791.post-68327143923991038912013-06-09T08:33:00.002-07:002013-06-09T08:33:42.229-07:00Field Day Fun <br />
The last week of school was full of fun! Danny got to have most of it though. For some reason everyone at the school thinks that Danny is the run around guy. He was always jumping in and helping everyone out. They had him in several different classes throughout the day so he was always running here or there. If he didn't have anything to do he would come help out in my classroom. The office lady kept him pretty busy though. At the end of the awards ceremony they decided to have a game called egg roulette. The object of this game was to be the last one left without egg on you...I bet people can already assume that Danny was not the winner and here's a video to prove just how awesome he was at this game.<br />

For field day Danny was assigned to the dunk tank. He got dunked a ton but also had a lot of breaks because the teachers at my school are amazing and let their classes dunk them. I am included in that list of awesome teachers :) For the record...I dunked Danny 4 times. He only got me 2!<br />

So I asked my aunt Kelli if I could stay with her on the weekends. Being the awesome aunt that she is, she said of course :) So I began to go Prosser on the weekends. I decided that I wanted to pick my ward since the whole reason I was going there was to meet people. I tried all the different wards out and each was ok but I finally just decided to go to the last one I went to because they were all about the same. When I was visiting the pasco ward however, they announced a weekly volleyball activity on Thursday nights. I figured why not, I mean I did play in high school, and I liked it when I actually got to play (the coach hated me for some reason...long story). So I decided to be outgoing and adventurous and went to volleyball. The first time I went I was a little disappointed because there weren't really any cute guys (I mean, that's the main reason I was going right?) but it was a lot of fun and I decided to try it again. The next time I went I saw this one guy there. My first thought was he's cute, shortly followed by my second thought of he probably has a girlfriend or something. So I decided to be brave and act like I was super friendly and awesome. I asked him his name and what he was up to with his life, going to school, working etc...His answer quite possibly changed the way I saw him. He said that he JUST got back from his mission 3 WEEKS AGO! My immediate reaction was "O no :( he's a baby, dangit." I then made the called for small talk. Later, when I got back to Kelli's house she asked me how it was and if there were any cute guys. I said there was one but he's a baby. She said o well sometimes those are the best kind. I decided that I would keep going back to volleyball. The next few weeks went like this: me trying to get to know him more and more, but also at the same time knowing that nothing would happen because I'm an old lady and he's a baby. I acted friendly and even added him on facebook. He seemed to be interested but was super shy so I just waited to see if anything would happen. I noticed him looking over at me whenever he did something good to make sure I saw and he sorta bragged about it to me...but I always tried to do better than him so I could rub it in. Sometimes I did, sometimes he beat me. It was kinda fun and flirty. I kept on waiting for him to ask me out or for my number or something and he never did. Finally, my last time at volleyball I told him that it was my last time at the the end of the night and he was like o...where are you going? I told him I was teaching in Utah. He then said "O one of my buddies is coming home from his mission soon and I'll be coming down there" (an obvious hint that maybe we could do something...so I said "Hey we should do something when you come down, here's my number." As we were exchanging numbers, a girl from volleyball told us they were all going to sonic to get ice cream and told us we should come. Danny looked at me and asked if I was going, I said I didn't know because I had to go to Prosser still. He then said you should come. I decided I might as well. So I drove behind him to sonic. On the way there I got a phone call from another guy so when I got there I talked on the phone for about 20 minutes (rude, I know). Meanwhile, Danny is sitting on his own bench with all these girls around him. I get off the phone and awkwardly approach the group. The only open spot is next to him. ask if I can sit down. He says yes. We spend the whole time listening to other people talking around us. Then one by one they all leave, just Danny and I are left at the table. I get up and say I should probably head home and he says the same. We walk back to our cars making small talk on the way. 20 minutes later we are lost in conversation when Kelli calls to see where I am (an hour later than I should be to her house). I tell her about sonic and tell her I'll head home after picking up a movie. I look behind us and there is a Walmart, so I decide to be brave and ask Danny if he wants to walk over with me to get a redbox. He says sure, we walk over and back still talking. Then we get back to the car and I tell him it was nice talking or something to that effect. He then asks "Hey, I know you are leaving on Saturday, and you probably have a lot of packing to do, but what are you doing tomorrow?" I told him I was packing and I had to see a few friends and I was supposed to have a movie night with my sister and sister in law but I might have some time. He then said "Good, because I want to see you." I told him that would be fun and to let me know what time and I'd see if it would work. We then said goodbye and each drove our separate ways. On my way to Kelli's house I was so excited and happy because I hadn't been asked out on a real date in like 3 years. I blasted Neil Diamond and sang at the top of my lungs. I was soooooooo excited. So....that's how we met :) Other stories soon to come.</span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07879408564115324125noreply@blogger.com1
