Latest Baby Update

Well it is time for another baby update. I am currently about 32 weeks along right now. It is crazy to me to think that it is getting so close for this little girl of ours to get here. However, I couldn't be more excited and more ready for her to get here. Although I have enjoyed being pregnant and being able to feel every move this child makes, I am more than ready to meet her, see her little face, hold her, and kiss her big chubby cheeks. (Yes she does have some chubby cheeks. On our last 4-D ultrasound Trevor just laughed and laughed at how big they were. I was born with really chubby cheeks, so I think she gets that from her mommy!)

Although pregnancy has been wonderful I am starting to become more and more uncomfortable as time goes on. And it is also really really hot all of the time! Haha I think its a blessing that I work inside, so I don't have to suffer through alot of the heat. A few things that are becoming more uncomfortable is my feet and my left hip. My feet start to hurt and get alot more tired than I remember ever getting before. Trevor tells me that I can't complain about my feet hurting all the time until I stop wearing heels to work and when we are out around the town together. I just tell him though that I have no other shoes to wear to work and such and so I have to. Haha Also, my hip has been starting to hurt alot! This is not something I am used to at all, however my doctor told me that it is something he is not concerned about because it can happen as I get closer and closer to her getting here.

Brinley is growing very big and is developing perfectly the doctor says. I am now going to the doctor every 2 weeks, and know that my weekly appointments will be here before I know it. I went to the doctor on Tuesday and we were able to see her again! I love it when I go to the doctor and get to see her cute little face and hear how much she has grown. At our last appointment she weighed 4 pounds. She gained 1 whole pound is just 2 short weeks. However, this explained why my stomach seems to be growing so big so quickly!

In this picture I am around 29 weeks

These are the most recent pictures of me. These were taken on Sunday.
I am around 32 weeks

This is my cute Hubby! He wanted his picture taken too!

Her room is also coming along very nicely as well. There are still a few things that I am needing to get done to have it completely ready for when she comes. It has been so fun getting her room ready and put together for her. I still need to take some more recent pictures of her room. The ones I currently have are about a month old and do not have alot of the finished things in them.

Like I said these pictures are pretty old, and do not resemble what her room looks like at the moment. So I will have to get some more updated pictures posted but this shows a little bit of a preview of how it looks. Well we have just under 2 months until she will be here and it cannot come fast enough. Trevor and I are both really ready for her to be here and to meet her. We know that our lives are going to change drastically once she gets here, but we couldn't be more excited for the new adventures that lay ahead of us! We already love this little girl so much and Aug 28 cannot come fast enough!

Family Event

At the beginning of June, Trevor and I were able to go with my family through the Bountiful Temple. My brother TJ was going through for his first time and it really was a great experience to be able to be with him, for this exciting time in his life. I have been waiting for many many months for my brother to make this decision and I was so happy it was happening and that both Trevor and I were able to be there with him for this moment in his life.

TJ and my Mom

Sadly this was the only picture of the night I was able to get. After the temple everyone was starving and so we were all able to go to dinner and enjoy some more time together. Needless to say, I get hungry alot quicker than I used to and so after the temple I was completely starving and convinceed everyone this was the only picture that was needed that night. Haha I am just happy were were able to get at least one picture to document this wonderful night we were able to spend with our family. It was also really nice to be able to see all of my aunts and uncles, because I feel I do not get to see alot of them very often anymore. All in all it was a great night with family!

Mothers Day

So I know I am about a month behind, but I am trying to get all caught up on my blogging!

Mothers Day was a great day for us! It was so exciting realizing that I will be a mother soon, and will have a child of my own to raise. I cannot wait for this little girl of our to arrive, but I am trying to be as patient as I can!

On Mothers Day we were able to Skype with my little brother who is currently serving a mission. Me and my little brother are very close and so I was super excited to be able to see him and talk with him. I was also very happy that we were going to actually get to see each other instead of just talking on the phone because it allowed him to be able to see my big pregnant belly! I love that decision that my brother has made to serve the Lord, and the people of Scotland and Ireland. However, with me being pregnant and us being so close to each other it has been a little difficult. There have been many times I have wished he was here at home with the family to be able to experience this with all of us. But its nice to be able to give him updates every week and I know that he is where he needs to be right now.

My family gathered around talking to Elder Jones

Elder Jones! He hasn't changed one single bit. (Sorry he was in the middle of a thought when I took this picture).

We were able to talk to my brother early in the morning and so the rest of the day was spent with family. It was nice to be able to see everyone and enjoy being with everyone! Holidays always seem to be really busy for me and Trevor trying to make it to see everyone. However, we were able to spend time with both my mom and Trevors mom. Which we loved being able to do and was exactly what we wanted! All in all it was a great Mothers Day!

Baby Update

Well its been awhile since I have given an update on the pregnancy. As of yesterday I am officially 24 weeks along. This puts me at right about 6 months along. Ever since I got out of my first trimester I have Loved every single second of being pregnant! I love seeing my tummy grow knowing our little girl is in there growing bigger and stronger every single day. I also love feeling her move around! I always thought I would think it would be weird to feel something moving around inside of me. However, it is the best feeling ever knowing she is in there moving around. Trevor finally was able to feel her move just the other night. It was the best thing to see his face light up and get all excited knowing he had finally felt her move. Trevor has been so cute through this entire process of being pregnant. I can't wait to until she is here to see Trevor with her. He already loves to spoil her and she has him wrapped around her little finger.

This was taken in St. George so I am about 22 weeks in this picture.

The day after we got back from St. George Trevor and I were able to go to our targeted ultrasound where they checked her out to make sure she was growing and developing properly. We were both very nervous for this appointment and were just hoping that everything would be ok with her. We were very happy to find out that she is growing and devloping exactly the way she should be. The technician said that everything looked perfect and she is growing right on track. She weight 1 lb. 3oz. Its amazing to us how fast she grows from one appointment to the next. My doctor told me that we are on track to have about a 7lb 6oz. baby. It was really fun to see her in the ultrasound and be able to see all her little features. It was also fun to see that she already growing some hair on her little head.

To say that I am obsessed with buying things for this little girl, mostly clothes would be an under-statement. I try to convince Trevor that we need more clothes for her but she is not buying it. I just love buying things for her and getting things ready for her little arrival. However, Trevor has finally convinced me that I need to stop buying clothes for her for at least a little bit, or at least until fall clothes come out since she won't be wearing summer clothes for only about a month (if that). We have had fun getting her room all put together. I haven't started decorating it or anything and don't have any bedding for her crib yet because I am still in the process of looking. But here is a sneek peak of her room so far. Its pretty boring right now... but its slowly coming along.

Trevor or I cannot wait for her to get here and we are constantly talking about her. Everyone keeps telling me that the time will go by fast, however August still seems so far away! We both can't wait to meet her but know August is eventually going to get here!!

St. George Weekend

During the Spring semester of school I was getting a little down with the both of us always being in school, working tons, and spending hardly any time together. I also knew that we only had a two week break together before Trevor started up the Summer semester and then our sweet little baby will be here. Because of this I knew we needed to get away together before the Summer semester started. It didn't take much convincing on my part either, and we set up a weekend away together to St. George.

About a week ago it was finally here and time for us to get away, down to some nice weather and relaxing together. It was a great weekend to be able to spend together relaxing, eating tons of food, mini golfing and shopping. My sweet, amazing husband spoiled me and the little baby tons while we were there. About a week before going to St. George I was finally starting to not fit into any of my clothes and knew it was finally time I start wearing maternity clothes. I did not take this realization very well either, not fitting into any of my old clothes. But I am too excited and anxious to meet this little girl of ours to even care. Anyways, Trevor spoiled the both of us so much. And the cutest part about it is he enjoyed every single second of it. He sure does love his two girls!

The two of us relaxing in our hotel room after the long drive down

We both had a great time together in St. George. We enjoyed spending every single second together without any stresses of work and school. The weekend went by way too fast though and we were sad to have to come home. It was a nice final get away together before our baby makes her arrival!

It's A...

Trevor and I are so very very happy and anxious for the upcoming events in our lives. On Christmas day we were so happy to find out that we will be adding a little one to our family! We had both been hoping and praying for this moment for a long time, and were so happy to find out that it was all happening.

The first 3 months of the pregnancy were very hard. I was very sick every single day. I didn't suffer from morning sickness though, I usually would get sick at night. So I guess you could say I had night sickness. With me and Trevor being at work and school during the day our nights were to say very uneventful these past 3 months. However, my amazing husband was so nice to take care of me and put up with all of my complaining and sicknesses. Not only did he take care of me, go to school full time, and work full time he also took care of the house chores and made himself dinner for 3 months. It was a long 3 months for the both of us, and we are so happy the first trimester is over!

I am due August 28 and am about 16 weeks along right now! I have just barely started to show. I have just a tiny belly, which most people don't even notice right now. Although I sure have been noticing for awhile now.

Well last Thursday we found out what we will be welcoming into our little family. We will be having...

We are both very excited and anxious for this little girl to get here!! Knowing what we are having is starting to make this pregnancy seem even more real. We are both excited we get to start preparing and getting things for our little girl! I tease Trevor all the time because of how excited he already is. He has already started spoiling this little girl, and she is not even here yet. I tell him all the time that the moment the doctor said it was a girl, she had her daddy wrapped around her little finger (and that is more true than anything)! Although I like to tease Trevor its so cute to see him talk about her, prepare for her, and think about her being here. I wouldn't want it any other way! I am so happy about how excited he is for our little girl!! I can already tell that he is going to be a great father to her!

Elder Cade Jones

About 2 weeks ago my little brother Cade left on his mission. He will be serving in the Scotland/Ireland mission. I am so proud and happy of his decision to go and serve the Lord for 2 years. However, I love my little brother so much and will miss him terribly! I already do miss him tons. Haha

We drove Cade down to the airport and he was off on his flight to the England MTC. He was so excited to be leaving and couldn't wait until it was time for him to go through the security gate and get on his plane. He kept asking all of us if it was time for him to go yet. It was sad to see him leave, but it helped to see how excited he was to going.

He looked like such a stud

I know that Cade will do a great job serving the people of Scotland and Ireland. He is already growing so much, and I can't wait to keep seeing how he does over the next 2 years. But I also hope these next 2 years go by very quickly! Haha
