Weigh In Day!

So I left the Doctor's office the other day a little sad. Every time I go to the Doctor's I have the same routine, I try and eat the same thing in the morning wear the same outfit.. just so when I get onto the scale, I can hear the nurse say, good job you have only gained one pound. This had been a good routine for me and working great I almost expect the same good job every time I go in, but this week instead of one pound the nurse said... looks like 4 pounds! Seriously I thought 4 lbs. only one week.. wow what happened! So then as I waited for the Doctor to come in I had some time to reflect on my week and here is how it went...
Good friend Reeces Peanut Butter Cups somehow magically slipped into my cart at the grocery store, in which I ate the whole bag.
Followed then by some magical oreo twisted frostys from Wendys that I decided to try out, and then continued to try them out all week long! They really are delicous by the way! I guess I deserved to have the scale weigh me in at a 4 lbs. gain in one week.
I decided to be good so my next weigh in went better.. and now here I am the night before and not only have I been eating Halloween candy and making yummy cake, but I found myself tonight eating 4 slices of this lovely Papa Johns pizza... yes Four slices of the large pizza! I'm not sure exaclty how my stomach even had the room to fit four slices of pizza in, but it did and I can't say I didn't enjoy it! Clearly my eating habits have gone downhill these past few weeks, so I will have to let you know how weigh in day goes tommorrow and let's just hope this baby comes quick or who knows what I'll look like!

Happy Halloween

Halloween was a great one this year, Jon and I carved pumpkins, went to Halloween parties and ate way too much candy. Here we are all decked out in our costumes as Thing 1, Thing 2, and Thing 3! And pictured below the lovely Jon deciding the best way to gut a pumpkin! Hope your Halloween was spooky good.

Update Update Update

So finally after much searching we found the camera and then after some more searching we found the camera charger.. yeah so now some posting finally!
It has been about two months since we moved from California and we are loving our new home here in Colorado.We are just about settled and Jon's work is going well so far so we are grateful and feel blessed! So what have we been up to, we took another trip to the Flaming Gorge cabin with friends and rafted and played however no camera at the time means no documenting pictures. We have also spent several nights over at the baseball fields watching our nephews play in their ball games. They had a great fall season and it was fun to hoot and holler at them!Recently we headed to Utah to stay at the Nelson's cabin.. thank you thank you Nelson's we love that place. We were able to go to the BYU vs. Colorado game which was fun, I love football season and the smell of concession stands! Here are the boys with Cosmo. Jon also went on a deep sea fishing trip in Washington with Drew our brother in law. He caught some monster salmon and had a great time. He did however get sea sick for the first two days.. sick enough he said he can't even look at saltines for a while, the third day was the charm with no sickness. We had a fish bake when he got back and for the first time I actually started to like fish and wanted seconds.. which never has happened before!Let's see what else... we also just had another ultra sound officially showing that this babe is a girl and she is not breach. Everything is looking well, and we are just waiting for her debut, only a little less then 5 weeks to go! Here is the most recent bump picture, just taken on Sat. This is a hike called the lunch loop, I am definetely looking forward to running this instead of walking/hiking in the near future!As for pictures of our place I haven't taken any pictures but I will soon!

Camera gone missing!

Sad but true my camera is currently missing!!! I have looked everywhere but at last nothing has turned up yet. Jon and I are settling into our new place and loving it. I will post pictures when I either find my camera or get a new one!!

Let's Just call this post July!!

It's been a while since I have posted so I will just lump all of July into one for you all to enjoy! July is absolutely my favorite month of the year it consists of the forth of July, my Birthday and most importantly sun sun sun! This July however with being pregnant I wish the sun would take it down a few notches but still I can't complain. It's been a crazy busy month so here goes it...

1. We started the month off taking our vacation over to Colorado and flaming gorge to visit my sister and family. It was fantastic we went on hikes and trail runs and played with her sweet boys. I'm a loser however and had too much fun I barely broke out the camera so here is a pic of Jon and I on one of our hikes.

2. For my Birthday celebration we headed down to Huntington beach, which is my favorite of all the beaches out here. We packed a picnic with friends, played in the water.. all the good stuff, and then headed out to dinner with my sister in law where you cook your food over your own grill it was great.

3. The latest Harry Potter movie came out.. need I say more. We headed with our friends Mandy and Aaron to the 1 A.M. showing.. thats right it took nearly a whole day to catch back up on that sleep. This is us just before it starts!4. Jon Hiked Mt Whitney all 22 miles of it in one day, he came home tired but accomplished, I was super proud. Here is all the brothers together!
5. We found out that we are probably having a girl.. yep that's right after two ultrasounds and the legs crossed both times we have not got a solid answer just a probable girl! Well take it though our little Brooklyn will be here shortly, only 14 weeks left!This picture was taken 5 weeks ago it's the most recent I have of the bump.. I look back only wish I was that size again.. I have grown much in the past few weeks.

6. And just to see if you were all still reading this lovely post.. Jon and I are moving this weekend to Colorado.. yes that's right moving this very weekend to Colorado. It has all happened super quick, Jon has been flying back and forth for the last few weeks to start work there and finish things here, but were doing it. He has been offered a great job and we feel like it will be a good place for another new adventure. So currently my life looks like this.. good times I know. I will miss many of the fun things about California but will also be happy to be done packing and situated in our next place. I am tired!! I am grateful for the little journeys that life takes us on.

St. George / Kanarraville

For Memorial Day Weekend Jon and I took a trip to St. George to visit! We had a great time with all the family, we went on a sweet hike in Kanarraville mostly through cold water but it was totally worth it. Here are some of the pics!
