32 Weeks and First Day of School

I will hopefully be blogging a lot more consistently because Simone put me in charge of keeping her blog up to date every week, so since I'm already on doing that I may as well blog, which will probably be a bunch of nothing cause our life is just pretty chill and boring!

 Dal and his mom.  Liz, Jenny, Marci, Jill and Mike all came up and ran in the Top of Utah Half Marathon last weekend, it was so fun to have some visitors! They all did so good.  Also, Dal does have other clothes, I feel like he wears this shirt EVERY time we take a pic.

 This is from the demolition derby in Preston.  We went up to watch our friend Nick derby and it was so fun! We went to the Juab one this year too which was good because there were so many cars, but this one honestly was ran way better, it kept me entertained the whole time for once.  Dal is obsessed with derbys so we actually go to quite  a few!

 First day of his senior year...needless to say he was not pleased about going to school or having to take a pic. He'll be glad when he's an old many that I made him take all these pics though.

And here is me at 32 weeks.  I am starting to feel quite freaking massive.  I still feel great for the most part though which is good.  Bending over takes my breath away, I either sleep like a dead person or sleep TERRIBLE, depending on the night, I'm still able to go running, and I pretty much just hate getting dressed for work ha. Working in a salon you pretty much have to get decked every day and thats not the absolute funnest thing when you just feel massive so good thing leggings are still in because I live in them.  The style right now works perfect for a pregnant person haha. 

I start going every 2 weeks now, and then it will wind down to every week til he gets here! It feels so far away but so close at the same time, its crazy. His room is almost done, I'll post pics when it's finished.  

So far Dal has been busy but not hating his life, so that's good.  He usually is at school from about 8-3 then comes home until he works at 5, so honestly his schedule is pretty good this semester so far.  This should be the last hard semester and then his spring semester will be pretty easy is what we've heard.  

Work is good, I didn't realize how much I missed doing hair until I started doing it again full time.  It's such a chill job and my clients are seriously the best.  I've been working almost every single day for the past 2 weeks, so way more than full-time, but this next week it should chill out a little which will be nice.

End of Summer Picture Overload

So since I sucked at blogging again, I just threw a bunch of random pics up here

 At the lake with my parents' new boat. I'm pretty sure this was after the day that we had such a fun day and then when we went to leave the boat wouldn't start...I thought we'd die because there was lightning and finally we got "rescued" by the Park Service and they made us sit on the floor of their boat like we were Mexicans being deported.  So freakin embarrassing, I think I peed my pants laughting about the situation at least twice ha.

 She WOULD NOT smile for a pic, so this is the best we got

 This is from FOREVER ago at the 20 week ultra sound.  He kept sucking his thumb and when the tech would move him around to get another view he would move his arm and then start sucking his thumb again, it was seriously so cute.

 This is Shayne's tattoo that Dal drew with permanent marker while we were camping.

 And this is when Dal caught me in the camper downing the confetti cake right out of the pan.  We actually were hiding this from everyone so that we wouldn't have to share ha. It's like our favorite treat!

 My first day working with my friend Kelli up in Logan, she's the funniest, cutest girl, I just love her

 This is after Dal chased Shayne down one day because she decided she wanted to go to school, so she ran across Center Street and went to school ha

 Dal and Bry girl with their Icies (?) from Canyon Country.  She wanted a "No Cone" so bad but they were closed so she settled for a "Boo"one of these.

 I just love this pic of her and her moneys

 Me and Sim at her going away dinner. She's at the MTC now, her blog is simoneshumway@blogspot.com

 One of our last days at the Rez in Delta.  We spent so much time out there this summer and had so much fun, we were sad to leave.

 Dropping Sim off at the MTC.  Pretty sad day!

 At the derby in Nephi. Dal looked forward to this thing all year, and it was pretty good I'm not gonna lie.

Dal and Logan, we watched her for a full day and it was actually so fun, she is such a good little girl!




Well we are back up in Logan again, it is kinda bittersweet.  We had such a fun summer just playing and not really having much of a schedule, but I was a little ready to get back to a schedule and have to get up and get ready for the day.  We got all moved into our new apartment and we LOVE it, it's such a cute little place and we can't wait to get the baby's room all finished and get him here!

I'm a little over 30 weeks now, so we're on the countdown finally.  I still feel really good, still running and for the most part feeling normal. The only time I get super uncomfortable is when I've been sitting for a long time and his room gets restricted and he starts kicking my ribs, or when I've been running or walking for a long time and he relaxes and slumps WAY down.  I already carry really low but he gets even lower when I'm active for a long time.

I will update again soon, I hope!

Phone Pics

So these are a bunch of pics I've taken on my phone so far this summer.  For not having much to do this summer we have actually kept way busy, which has been nice since its busy fun stuff instead of school and work and all that. 

 Dal and Aspen out at the driving range.  She did not want to leave after she started hitting balls, so cute.

 We promised her an ice cream after and she couldn't have been happier!

 This kind of sums up the summer so far.  Every night Dal is usually loading up a 4-wheeler or the boat or something to go out and play, he is in heaven.

 Me and little Shayner girl

 Dal got to be in on the annual branding of the cows this  year, since he's never gotten to before.  I thought he would hate his life and never want to go back to Blanding after but he actually really liked it! Other than being sore for like a week after ha.

 Sagan and Nate came up for the boys to play in the all-night softball tournament in Delta and it was so fun having them here! We ate good food and just chilled, they need to come up again!

 Me and Aspen out on the boat one evening

 Brandon and Dallan that same night.  Look how happy these two boys are, they love everything about being outside.  Good thing they're basically the same person so that they always have someone to go do things with.

 Little Bry girl on the Silver Bullet at my parents house.  My mom blew this up and Bry jumped right on and we took turns pulling her around the yard, she thought it was the funnest thing ever! We found out she'll hang on even if she is hanging off the side, so it proves she'll be a good tuber, if only Gar will just let her now.

 Dal is obviously pretty excited to go to church...

 Here's my 21 week pic.  Starting to show a little more and it hasn't slowed down since then.  I feel like every day I get bigger and bigger, its so weird! We just started being able to see when he kicks on the outside of my stomach, it's the craziest thing, I love it! I will miss feeling him kick when he's out but I feel like I've been pregnant for a million years! I'll do a pregnancy post soon so I can write down everything that's been going on with all that soon.

We went to the movie "The Internship" a few nights ago, and at this point we were the only ones in the theater, and only 2 more couples came on a Friday night, so we pretty much had the theater to ourselves.  It was such a funny movie.  Dal always wants an action movie and I always want a chick flick, but we can always agree on a funny movie so this was right up our alley.



Dal is really liking working at the Plant this summer.  He's learning a lot and has such good hours, things really couldn't get any better this summer, we're pretty much just living a fake life I feel like.  My day consists of waking up whenever I want, going running, slowly getting ready for the day, watching my shows, going to the Rez or the park with my nieces and nephew, making dinner, then going to the Rez or 4-wheeling or to our softball games at night.  It's been SO nice, it will be hard to go back up to Logan for one more year!

Lake Powell

So we just got back from Lake Powell with Dal's family and we were so not ready to leave.  We spent 4 days there on their houseboat and just played and relaxed.  I have more pictures that I will need to put on once I get them from Jenny but this will do for now.

Dal wakeboarding, his favorite thing ever I think

 After the shaving cream war. There are way more pics of this that Jenny has that I'll put on when I get them. Thanks to Jill for bringing all the shaving cream, probably one of the funniest things ever!

 Ignore my looking like crap. I was not about to look in a mirror all week, and obviously I didnt.

This is just  a few of the fish Dal got, he lives for Lake Powell fishing, so its a good thing we get to go back with my parents a lot this summer!

Vegas 2013

For some reason most of my Vegas pics won't upload, but oh well.  Right after we left Logan, we moved everything in and left right to Vegas for a little getaway before Dal started work for the summer.  We needed a break after being so busy and Dal always chooses Vegas with I'm fine with, we always have plenty to do there. 

 Dinner at Hard Rock Cafe.  I don't know if we were starving to death or what but it was one of the best meals I have ever had in my life, I'm not even kidding.

 Every night when we got done doin whatever out on the strip we were never quite ready for bed, so both nights we went down to the arcade and played  a few games.  I have never in my life played arcade games but it was actually fun!

 Waiting for the Bellagio water show to start.  We have seen this a million times and I never get sick of it, I think it's my favorite part of Vegas.

Eating lunch at Johnny Rockets, one of my favorite places

 

It was so nice to get away and eat good food, lay out by the pool and just chill before summer got goin.  I'm sure we'll go back before summer is over just because it's so close and we always find fun stuff to do!

Summer Update

So a lot has happened since I updated last, we are officially moved to Delta! The last few weeks in Logan were crazy busy, I was working a ton, Dal was finishing up projects and finals, and we were trying to move everything we owned into a storage unit and get the house cleaned and get all moved.  We were busy but we got it done and it's SO NICE to have life chilled out a little bit.

 Outside of our ghetto townhome in Logan, not moving back here ha thank goodness.  It wasn't bad but our neighbors were winners, let me tell ya. Constantly outside smoking and laying out (they were in their 50's, didn't have jobs, and weren't super fit, so the laying out thing was not the cutest sight we've ever seen), and asking us to come over and drink with them cause, "they have the best beer" ha. We actually really liked this apartment overall but we will find something else when we move back up this fall.

 This is before we have everything in our storage unit but this is actually most of it! We fit everything pretty easy in a 10x15 storage unit, so we really don't have that much stuff which is nice.  Guess it pays to marry someone that is a clean/organization freak like Dal:)

 In other news, I haven't even put on here that we are expecting! Life has just been a little crazy to be blogging lately, but I should have plenty more time this summer.  We found out when I was only 3 1/2 weeks along, so let me tell ya, keeping that secret was not easy, especially when I was working and having to go throw up and pretend like I was just fine everyday ha.  I actually felt really good (other than being exhausted) up until 7 weeks and then it hit me like a ton of bricks.  I would throw up througout the day and then wake up in the middle of the night sick too, but it's completely worth it!
Once I hit second trimester I have felt so much better.  I don't get nauseous unless I get hungry, so I try to eat every couple hours, which I love ha, and I haven't been nearly as tired.  I actually feel like a normal person again!
When we moved to Delta my sis in law that works at the hospital said that the ultra-sound tech that she works with would do an early gender check for us, so we got to go in at just under 16 weeks and find out that we were having a boy! We knew the entire time it would be a boy, everyone has always said they thought I would only have boys, and my family just knew it was a boy too, so when I told them no one was surprised ha, and they have taken the liberty of naming him Delbert, sick I know. It was fun cause we got to go in the same time as Cory and Jamie (who are due on the same day, how crazy is that?) and find out that we were both having boys! It will be so fun to have two boy cousins so close in age, we're way excited. 

I have been beyond sucky at taking belly pics, so this is my first one and it is at 17 weeks.  I feel like I just woke up one day and I had a belly, but it still kinda just looks like I've been hanging out eating Krispy Kremes all day, so it's not the cutest thing in the world right now. 

3 Year Anniversary

So today is our 3 year anniversary and Dal is doing some intense homework and I'm bored so I decided to throw up a few engagements and wedding pics since I never do crap like this, but it was fun to look back and see how young we look even 3 years ago! I'm kinda missing my dark hair now...

 

In these 3 years we have:
Lived in 2 towns
Lived in 5 apartments
Had 3 fish (all dead now)
Paid billions of dollars in tuition it seems like
Played lots of softball and Mario Kart
Ate way too much crap that we both love
and countless other things

It's been a good 3 years!!!!
