This week hasn't been much but the same 'ol, same 'ol. Tyler works everyday, comes home and does home work and then we just hang. We have really gotten in to Grey's Anatomy, but Tyler won't have the guts to tell you he's stuck on the drama! Anyways, Tyler went to Logan on Saturday and took Tommy with him. I wasn't feeling well and was SUPER bummed I couldn't go. My husband came home with a few things.
He got a new TV stand and put it together:

 He did a WONDERFUL job! It looks much better! It also makes the TV look bigger which is FINE with Tyler!
I was bummed I couldn't go so Tyler surprised me with:
A new PURPLE orchid! Isn't it pretty? 

 A new body pillow. Pregnancy ruins sleep and hopefully this will help!
 And this delicious little friend from Arctic Circle. It's vanilla ice cream, with caramel, caramel filled candies and whipped cream. Um.. best thing I've eaten all week! I'm finishing it right now as I type. My husband just asked if I really was sharing a shake on our blog. I said yes, because CHANGED MY LIFE!! :)
Not much baby news this week. I'm starting to feel more livable (I think, knock on wood) and can function better by myself. We are getting our second room cleaned out so I can begin to craigslist some things for the baby room. I'm excited for the summer because yard-sale-ing for baby stuff is GONNA BE BOMB! I'm stocked! Our next appointment is Feb. 6. I'll be close to 16 weeks so the doctor will do a gender check! Hopefully it's not too early, but it probably is! So maybe maybe!
Until next time.....

Let's Play Catch-Up!

It's been a while. A month almost. Not so good for that weekly blog post dream I had, but I have my reasons. I've been working on this.....

And well that nasty little sickness caught up with me. This is what it looked like: 
Not pretty I know..... It's called my morning sickness corner. Note the garbage can I need to more fully utilize. Yes, that's Wendy's; love my frosty and fries! Kleenex's for my ever stuffy nose. Who knew?!? and the Ipad and Percy Jackson to pass the time! When I'm not watching Netflix! And some days the floor is more comfortable than the chair! Who'd a thunk? 
I am almost 13 weeks. Due July 31! Might change a bit, but we are excited! We've had two appointments and all is going great! Next appt. in Feb we might get to know the sex!! Love, support and prayers have been needed and a blessing!  
Tyler started a diet for a family competition and I can eat a little more so our latest shopping trip looked like this:
You can see all of Tyler's healthy food. What you don't see are the Hershey bars, snickers ice cream, gluten free Oreos and pudding I "needed". Needless to say I am NOT in the competition.
A few weeks ago, Tyler learned a hard lesson in asking your sick pregnant wife to do something she can't really do without the need to puke. This is what happened:
I was in a hurry(for need to puke) and he failed to give me the razor guard(which I failed to notice!). This wasn't on purpose! Totally an accident!! Needless to say, this happened. Whoops! So we had to cut it ALL of. He was almost bald and a few weeks later he's fine.
No blood no foul right?! 
We are SEVERELY blessed by the Lord and couldn't be more thankful! I am definitely looking to speed through the next few weeks and start to feel livable again! Tyler started school again and really ready to be done! We are doing all online right now so he can get an associates from BYUI and get a bachelors from Utah State. Needless to say the classes are difficult, but he is trudging through! We are giving talks in church tomorrow and look forward to becoming a useful part of the ward! 
Until next time....
