Getting There...

Well I'm 36 weeks now, so it's coming to an end, but I still think I'll go into November.  My doctor said he thinks I'll go full term for sure, which I think he's basically saying I'll probably go over without actually saying it ha but me and Dal both called that I'll have this little boy on Halloween...mark my words.

So this one day Sagan asked me to send a pic to see how big I was getting so I sent her one, so next thing I know shes sending me a pic pushing out her stomach wearing the same thing, basically showing how much more massive I am than her right now ha, I didn't even get it at first, I just thought we were wearing the same shirt that day.  She had just colored her hair with color and instructions I left for her, and I liked hers way more than I liked mine after seeing it in this pic so I colored mine a few days later, so now we really do look exactly alike other than the fact that I'm "honkin huge" (as Bryir would say) and she's not.

 Don't mind my messy bathroom, or onery look in this pic ha
 This was after my baby shower in Salt Lake at Olive Garden.  We had SO much fun talking and all the girls giving me advice and we sat there and laughed for hours.  I look MASSIVE in this pic, probably not the best outfit choice on my part, it definitely makes me look bigger than I am ( I hope?). Thanks to all you girls for coming and all the cute gifts, I can't wait til he comes so he can wear/use everything!

The other night I was FREEZING and wanted hot chocolate so bad, so I went to make some and it had been expired for 2 years, apparently I don't drink hot chocolate fast enough, so we made a little stop at Mooch's (best gas station ever) and I got a steamy hot chocolate and Dal gets a freakin Frazil even though it was like 40 degrees outside.  I'm pretty sure it's a drink that only 4 year olds get ha but he loves them.



We are still just working away and waiting for this baby boy to get here, but definitely not holding our breath.  His room is done, we got his newborn sleeper in the mail today, and I think I honestly have everything that I have to have when he gets here, so I'm feeling pretty stress free.  Other than the fact that I actually have to push a baby out, that thought keeps me up most nights freaking out about that.  Mainly I'm stressed about the epidural, even though I'm set on the fact that I WILL get one.  If you guys know me and my sisters you know how scary a needle is, it's one of the scariest things in the world to me, so I feel bad for the poor guy that has to give me the dang thing.

I'm still working full time and I love that I have something to do while I'm waiting these last 4 weeks.  It keeps me busy and its actually a lot better to stand all day than to sit.  Sitting upright seriously cuts my breathing capabilities like in half and is pretty uncomfortable...does not make for a fun 3 hours at church when I can't sprawl out the way that I want to.

Dal is still working and going to school, he's so barely I don't see him very much but luckily this is the last semester that it will be this way, and one month down already so I think we'll live.

Midway and Jake and Alyssa's Wedding

This last weekend we got to go down to Lindon and go to one of Dal's best friend's reception.  We had to miss their sealing because Dal had class but we made it for the reception and it was SO pretty. It was at the coolest farm and was just perfect.  Afterwards we picked up my mom and went up to Midway to stay for the weekend and my dad met us late that night.  I had never been up there and I am in LOVE.  We stayed at the Zermatt Resort and I'm already trying to talk Cheyna into going and staying there, she loves hotels more than any person I know.

 The front of the Zermatt

 We don't really know how to play chess so this game didn't really happen haha
 Such a cute place!
 LOVE all the flowers everywhere, makes me want to go to Europe so bad.
 This is the way my dad and Dallan like to spend their vacations....sleeping.  Dal has taken up the Shumway way of napping.
 View from our room, so green!



 The boys at the reception
 This is how they do receptions, watching some random college football game on a phone, obsessed I'd say.
They sent this pic to Marcus, so mean! This is Marcus and Maria's little boy Braxtyn, cutest little guy.  These boys haven't seen him for quite awhile, and they tried to make Marcus a little jealous I think;)




It was a quick weekend but it was so fun to get away and go do something new like stay in Midway.  We probably won't really go anywhere now until after the baby comes so it was a nice little "last" getaway before our life completely changes ha but we are so excited and he can't come soon enough! (Even though I do want him to grow quite a bit more, I don't want him to be too flimsy!)
