33 weeks!

Another 4 lbs. How sad. It has only been 2 weeks this time not 4! I am so doomed! Things looked good. Not much to say. Next time I will be getting the group B strep test. It was neg. last time, so I assume it will be again. Still husbandless, so another self portrait. I don't like posing for pictures alone. So there ya have it, my belly! Enjoy! I can't wait to have the little guy in my arms for a photo!

31 Weeks! husband-less...

Everything was looking good at the Dr. today. The best part about it... I DIDN'T gain ANOTHER 5 lbs.! Yay! I think it was 3. Which they say at this point 1 lb a week and my last appt was 3 weeks ago. So hopefully the next one will only be 2 lbs. WOW! I am down to 2 week appts.! How exciting, but I still feel like this pregnancy is going slow!

Hunter felt the need to get in front of the camera, so thought I would share!

I had to take this one myself again, so that's why I am looking down, the camera is on the table.
So I had to do the timer again since Tyson is gone, again. He had to go to Texas for a class for his job. So I am a single mother for 3 weeks. I hate it. The worst part, is I think it has actually had the biggest effect on Hunter than it ever has. Which makes it harder for me. We have a routine most nights that we get on jammies, have some milk while we watch TV for a bit to relax, have family prayer, then loves and kisses and "Night Night!" Well last night we had our little 2 of us family prayer then we were on our way to her bedroom and she was like "daddy?!" He is usually walking with us to the room. So of course, me being the sucker I am, got choked up. We stopped in the hall to look at pictures of daddy so she could say night night to him. The first day always sucks for me. I am so weak. I am so freakin in love its kinda pathetic. 5 years!, (next wed) and I still cry when he leaves! (yes, ANOTHER anniversary apart! We have only had 2 together of 5, how sad!) Then, when I was leaving for the Dr. today, she cried. So sad. I think she thought daddy was gone, and mommy was leaving and she was going to be abandoned! Then when I walked in the door back, she was all excited and kinda cried, gave me a big hug! I sure love her! I am so glad I have her. She makes me so happy! I am so greatful for my little family and the love we share for one another. Each time Tyson leaves I am reminded more and more how blessed we are to be a family and for the husband and father that he is for us. I am the luckiest girl in the world! I am so greatful that we are a FOREVER family! and that I have that knowledge to comfort me! I wish I could express myself in words my feelings. But I can't think of any words to share my love and appreciation for my family! They mean the world to me! and even more than that!

The last couple months... 18 Months!

Now that summer is over I guess it's time to add some pictures of the last 2 Utah trips. I am terrible at this blogging thing, and so this one has TONS of pictures. Hopefully it wont be too boring. Even though it is backwards. Sorry.
Also, Hunter turned 18 Months Aug. 22. She had her Dr. appt. Sept. 1 since we were in Utah. She weighed 22.8 Lbs. 28% and 32" 66%., and got 2 shots. So for all those who kept commenting on how tall she is, you were right. Just above average.

This was actually in May. We had 2 friends graduate high school in our ward and they had a pool party to celebrate. I thought this little family snap shot turned out super cute!
We went to Las Vegas on our way to Utah the second time. The following are pics from that fun vaca!
Hunter loves sea life. This was during the feeding at the Silverton.
What a special way to spend your honeymoon!
This is nasty, but I just had to show her sick back fat hanging out! DISGUSTING!
Bellagio fountains
Bellagio fountains. My mom flew to Vegas and met us there to spend time. It was a great get-a-way for all of us. Thanks MOM!!

The harness! Vegas LIFESAVER!!
The shark exhibit at Mandalay Bay. Awesome! Highly recommend. Hunter LOVED it, we couldn't keep her by us she was running everywhere. She couldn't get enough of it, hence the harness!

Between trips. Hunter took the nail polish to daddy and asked "please?!" So adorable. She sat the entire time while he did her toes AND fingers. Then helped him blow on them to dry!
Poking his eyes while he napped!
The morning we left from our first Utah trip.
We spent 5 days in Island Park and this was how she got her bath! They all called it White Trash but I disagree. I just think its smart(Tysons idea, he is always behind the bright ideas) and cute!
I'm not sure why, but James and Brielle hung Tyson over the bridge for something??!!
Trying to feed the Seagulls
Tyson tried to hand feed the Seagulls. He actually came really close!
Grandpa and Hunter going to feel the Seagulls in the river.

Lagoon. Her very first every theme park ride. Not sure she was crazy about it, but she didn't cry either.
On the way to Lagoon. I think...?
My brother and Kristina had Damian blessed while we were there. So I made them all pose for pics!
Mom and kids with grandkids
4 generations of girls


They are 10 months apart exactly. Can you imagine it?


Our first Utah trip was originally because we took the Young Women. I don't have a picture of the group. How sad. I didn't take any of my girls. But I got a disc from the YW pres.! But this is our little family!
a random picture of her in the tupperware drawer.
