one last hurrah

This last weekend Seth let me take a road trip down to So Cal with my old roomies to visit a roomie that now lives in Long Beach. I loved it, all of it. Except for riding in a car being 8 months pregnant, But it was my choice, so I'm not REALLY complaining;) We got there Friday morning and got a tour of Miranda's school; went to the beach, frolicked in the water, laid out; went out to eat; met Santa Clause.

Saturday we drove to San Diego; ate at BJ's (awesome pizza & of course ended with a pizookie); went to the BYU - San Diego game; went to the San Diego Temple at night.

Drove home on Sunday.

It was a much needed vacation with my roommates. It was just like old times:) Even though I missed my hunny!

FRIDAY



I thought this was pretty funny.

Meeting "Kris Kringle" He has a contract with Warner Brothers, and where else would we meet him, but at Denny's!

SATURDAY:


Beautiful San Diego Temple


Lil man stretches the Y out perfectly:)


At the BYU game.

WHERE DO YOU POSITION PILLOWS TO GET THE MOST COMFORT?!?!?

My back kills. Most all the time. Especially when I sleep on my left side, which is what you're supposed to do. Seth tried to position a pillow under me to hold up what needed support and tried to explain to me that that's where my spine wasn't straight. I'm sure he's right, but it just didn't do the trick at the moment and it's probably because I wanted instant relief. I'll take any suggestions of what you guys do to help with the back pain. I've tried the pillow between the legs, (it get's too hot & drives me crazy) I've tried putting it just right under my belly, but it never seems to stay put. So sometimes I end up sleeping on my back for a short period to try to relieve. I'm willing to try all suggestions, even if you've never been pregnant ;).....

the latest & greatest

This will be a mutli-post.

1. THANK YOU, thank you for all your ideas. It actually did help me come up with one and I will post pictures of what it is, when I'm done!!

2. My hubby hub.He's quite comical actually. Monday night I wanted to go to Fro Yo. (a frozen yogurt place) I had a hoodie on and as we're about to leave Seth asks me if it's cold enough for a jacket and I told him he might want to grab one just in case. Then he walks out of our bedroom in this. A church suit coat... laughing, he says, what about this?? Actually doesnt look too bad, but it was too nice of a suit coat to go with the rest of his outfit. I'm grateful for his funny ways and his putting up with my pregnant hormones. He's a good helper and very patient with me and my easy-to-get-irritated-by-the-stupidest-things hormone, and still tells me he loves me after those episodes;) He rubs my feet and back when they hurt, and boy have they been hurting a TON lately. I love this man.

3. Baby's first General Conference Center experience. He seemed to enjoy it and was pretty calm the whole time besides a few jungle gym moves here and there and forcing his rear as hard as he could against my belly button and his daily 5-10 minute hiccup session. Other than that I think he enjoyed it:) As did Seth and I. We got some tickets from my old roomie and her hub and enjoyed the 1st Saturday session in the Conference Center. Just a few things that really came to my attention and that I took with me was teaching and learning,(I need to continually strive to learn) loving unconditionally,(everyone I come in contact with, especially loving and SHOWING my love to husband and family) and knowing we're all children of our Heavenly Father and he will always love us and be there for us NO MATTER WHAT.

come on you slackers..

i have this magic little thing that tells me how many times my blog has been looked at each day, and NO ONE left ANY ideas! I'm serious about this, I need some ideas! Or is it because you don't want me to steal your idea?? haha. Really though ANYTHING will help. I'm leaning more toward sport themed or just decorated "boy" cute. So please comment on the blog post below with your ideas ;)
