One of those days.

Today is one of those days where I have to try extra hard to be patient with my little love. And it also happens to be one of those days where she decided that a nap is an option, not a requirement. So she is currently playing in her crib while I have a little break. I'm not sure if that makes me sound like a terrible mom or not but it is needed today. I thought I would blog and share some pictures while I have a moment to myself... kind of...
Also, is anyone else extra irritable while they are pregnant? Because I sure am. Normally I am a fairly easy going person. Pregnant version of me is a little bit hyper irritable and has to try extra hard to be nice. That is also why I am on a Facebook hiatus for a while. I need it. :)

Anyway, here are a few more pictures of what we have been up to lately! 

Haddie and I have been doing a swim class together. She loves it! Although she picks and chooses the activities she actually wants to do and when she wants to just splash.... at least she is getting used to the water. These pictures were one day as we were getting ready... I came out of the bathroom to find her in my dresser drawer... cabbage patch doll pacifier in her mouth, swim diaper around her legs, remote in hand.

Some of you may have seen these pictures on Instagram. I watch my niece Hope a few days a week. This was us getting outside to kill the cabin fever!

And these pictures are from Haddie's cousin's (Ruby) 1st birthday! All the kids got to decorate their own personal cake. So fun!

Hope you all are having a wonderful day! 

*And I just realized that the birthday pictures are also in my last post... so enjoy them again! 

..Life..

Oh hey there. 

It's been a while! I have a ridiculous number of pictures and they are all from my phone. My phone started rebelling when I was approaching 900 pictures on it so I thought I should maybe go ahead and upload them onto my computer. (Don't worry, all 900 pictures are NOT in this post.)

These first pictures are mostly because I am really starting to get some cabin fever and summer just sounds delightful about now. And the rest are what has been happening lately. Maybe someday I will start blogging on a regular basis again...

My little fruit bat chowing on some strawberries...

Hope and Haddie at the fair...  No, Haddie did not look that concerned/constipated the entire time. She did actually enjoy the ride.

 Ahh... summmer...

Haddie's cousin had a bouncy castle at her birthday party and it was a hit!

Just a future Picasso with the finger paints...

We actually went to a pumpkin patch this year instead of the grocery store to get our pumpkins and it was fun for Haddie to pick her own!

With her pumpkin... it was a tad on the heavy side for a one year old...

Her hand-me-down horse from her aunt and uncle that she LOVES!

 Hiking up City Creek... it was SO beautiful and perfect that day!!

Haddie and I tagged along with Dave to Las Vegas for a conference for his work. We drove and made a stop in St. George on the way. It was the first time we had been back to the St. George temple with Haddie... 5 and half years after we were married there.

 Clearly she loved it...

We wore these shirts on Halloween on to announce our new little one to our family. :)

 First big snow storm of the winter...

 First doctor's appointment for the little bean...

Daddy-daughter dance party!

Haddie's loot from Santa!

So I ran out of desire to tell you what was going on in every picture but I'm sure you can figure it out.

Pregnancy-wise I am feeling good... just tired! Like I want to take a nap every afternoon and go to bed at 8 pm every night. I was sick until probably 15-ish weeks and I had heartburn a lot until then too. It was different sick than when I was pregnant with Haddie though. I don't really know how to explain it other than with Haddie I thought I might vomit 24/7 and with this one I was queasy and had a sensitive stomach but wasn't necessarily nauseous all the time. I don't know if that makes sense. I also would get heartburn all the time and would feel sick after I ate. Weirdness. Oh and my sense of smell was out of control at first! I had to stop making meals in the crock pot because the smell of them filling my house made me sick! I never had that issue with Haddie.  Also, I'm pretty sure this baby is a ninja or a soccer player because she kicks like mad! I am going to have my hands full if she comes out as active as she is in my belly! I am so so excited!!
