28 Weeks

We are still pretty busy here in Arizona, and I guess all the time i have for blogging is to post more belly shots. I am not just taking belly shots for all of you, they are for me mostly. I didn't take that many belly shots with Kellen, and I wish I totally had. For being as small as I look, I sure to feel a lot bigger. Yoga is an absolute must every day, other wise my back and hip hurt, then I'm Miss Grumpy, and my family doesn't need that.

We still have not started to get anything for baby girl, but I'm not worried. We have a car seat, and some clothes. We'll get her a bed soon. We are basically starting from scratch, Kellen broke all his baby stuff, even his crib. We still have the crib mattress though. And were still very undecided about which things to get. Most of the baby stuff out there Kellen will want to climb into it and that will brake it. Like swings and chairs and cribs. I'm sure we will figure it all out after she comes. I also don't want to buy to many things knowing that we are moving next Fall, and we are not sure where it is. If Preston get his way, it will be over seas. More to come on that topic latter. It's sad to say but all she gets for right now is a corner in our room. I figure as she gets older she'll get more space in the house.

25 Weeks

I couldn't decided which photo was better, so I did both. So here I am at 25 weeks, look at how teeny tiny I am. I don't mean that in a bragging way, I am just shocked. I have always told people how big I get when I'm pregnant, and now I look like a total lier. In all fairness I was HUGE with Kellen. This little girl is just sitting in a different spot. We are still looking for a new Midwife, and deciding on which hospital to deliver in.

The Big Move

So for those of you that don't know, we moved down to Arizona so that Preston could do his student teaching. We have been supper busy since we got here, but are totally love it!!! We have had the chance to see family a few times which is really nice. And yes, we are loving the heat. We head to the swimming pool every afternoon. So naturally Preston and & Kellen are getting brown, and I am getting red.
In the future I will probably not move right after a big event, it was hard and exhausting, and crazy. Having family there to help pack was wonderful though. Thank you, to everyone that help out, I could not have done it on my own. The new apartment is still not quite put together, so I will have to take pictures another time. It is way nice, and way bigger then I thought it was. Love Love Love it.
To move we hired a moving company. ABF trucking. So worth it. They drop off the truck, we pack it, they come and pick it up, and drive it to your destination. We un pack it then they come back and get it. It worked out soooo good, especially with us both having to drive our own cars down here.
And this picture just about sums everything up... Totally Faded.

Graduation

College Grad!!!
So excited for Preston. It was a lot of hard work, but we made it.
We spent a total of 3 years in Rexburg, not bad! It has been an amazing journey, and we have had the opportunity to meet some of the most wonderful people, that we will truly miss. Preston's Bachelor is only the tip of the ice burg. I only have the next 12 months to recoup, while we wait for Grad School to start. Oh boy another 3 years.
We all went out to Da Pineapple Grill for some totally yummy Sushi. Don't worry I got there California Roll, which in my opinion is ok because it is all cooked.
This is literally the only photo we got that even some what turned out. None of us had our cameras set for the right kind of light.
