Brianhead Family Fun

Having fun with the little girls.

Learning the Hula from Mckenna.

Eric was letting sami sit on the ceiling...she loved it :)

Playing games with the family.

For the 4th of july week we had the opportunity to go up to Brianhead and stay at a very nice cabin with all of erics family. We had such a good time playing games, relaxing and spending time with the family. The boys had a lot of fun playing with their airsoft guns outside and we had a good time riding around on the Razor. Thanks mom and dad for such a fun week!!! We were also able to go to St. George for a few days before brianhead...Eric was able to shadow some optometrists and we were able to see some friends and have some fun! Robin (my cousin) threw me a little baby shower and that was a blast, Thanks Robin your the best! Overall I would say we had a very good vacation and it definetely did not feel long enough!!

6 Months Prego

I am now 6 months pregnant, looking at the picture you can tell i'm carrying her pretty high... I can finally feel her kicking me :) it went from not feeling anything to not being able to get her to stop...It's probably been my favorite part of being pregnant so far, I love feeling her move around! Eric got to feel her about the same time I did and he loves getting to feel her and watch her kick too! I'm starting to get a little uncomfortable at night, but I still sleep pretty good. All the bad things about the first part of pregnancy are gone (smells arent' as bad anymore, I can eat whatever now, headaches aren't as often, I don't throw up at all, etc.) I have another ultrasound on Friday to see if my placenta has gone up, so we are crossing our fingers!

5 Months!

My belly is starting to GROW...I feel so big ha! I had my 5month doctor appointment the other day and she informed me that I do have Placenta Previa and that my placenta was completely covering my cervix. So we are hoping that it will raise up in the next 2 months, otherwise I have to have a c-section :(.... The only good thing about this is that I get a couple more ultrasounds to see my baby girl!! My morning sickness is pretty much completely gone, so that is nice! Its seems like all I do is Eat, Sleep, Work, and Pee....I've started to get the 2nd trimester headaches now, and I have a few spots on my skin that have darkened (apparently from estrogen), i'm just glad it isn't on my face where people can see it! Anyway that pretty much sums up where I am at right now!!

Its a GIRL! :)

We are having a baby girl....we are so excited for this little girl to come!! The ultrasound went very well..She was a very active little girl so it took the lady awhile to get all the measurements she needed! They told me that I might need to come back for another ultrasound in about a month because my placenta was a little to low and they are hoping that it will be higher next time I come in...if not I might have to have a c-section...Anyway she looked good and healthy so we are very excited!! Its so nice to finally be able to call "it" a "her" now :)...Sorry baby tate for not being able to give you a boy cousin!

BOY OR GIRL??

Ok everyone tomorrow is the big day....so put in your votes, do you think it is a boy or a girl??? I want to hear your input!!!

17 Weeks!

Ok here is my 17 week photo....you can kinda see my little baby bump but it isn't to prominant yet! I am finally over the morning sickness, I will throw up maybe once a week... I found that I have to keep myself busy or I will get sick, so I can't lay around on the weekends like I would like too :(.... I really like apples and yogurt right now, I eat those everyday! Other than that I really don't crave anything, I just have a lot of foods that don't ever sound good to eat. I don't seem to get tired like a lot of people warned I would, maybe it just hasn't hit yet! Smells really get to me though, I had to stop making roast on sundays because I couldn't handle the smell when I got home from church. It's starting to get a little better now, it seemed much worse at the beginning! Lastly we get to find out what we are having in exactly 2 weeks and we can't wait, wahoo! :)

Cinco De Mayo!!

It's been 3 years since we've tied the knot and it's only gotten better as each day goes on. I'm the luckiest man in the world to have such a fun best friend as my amazing wife! I love you honey!
