Halloween

This is what we did for Halloween.........

1. I went to the zoo with my friends and their kids while Sky was at school and we went through the creepy stuff where they always have the lights off aka the bat cave and the swamp then later we went to look at these monkeys that yell really loud and this one monkey ran at us, jumped on the fence/cage wall and shook it, and yelled right in our face it was terrifying but pretty cool
2. Sky came home early =D which is funny since early means 6:30 pm, as you can see he doesn't like me taking his picture........................

3. We made caramel apples

4. Sky's family makes root beer every year and hands it out to trick or treaters, however due to the way our apartments are laid out we didn't get any and making root beer seemed like too much for me, so instead we tried all these different root beers from this cool vintage shop in Old Market, my fav was the birch beer

5. We watched Disney's Ichabod Crane, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow since I had never seen it and it's a childhood favorite of Sky's

XOXO

People keep asking me how I'm feeling and if I've liked being pregnant. So to sum it up..........

Weeks 6-10 I felt fine & great/normal as long as I ate something everything 2 hours and drank a lot of water

Weeks 10-15 were the worst 35 days of my life, I wanted to die everyday, I assume how I felt is the closest I'll ever come to feeling what Chris has felt like going through chemo, when I wasn't massaging people on my usual 5 shifts a week I was lying in bed watching netflix and throwing up

Weeks 15-30 were absolutely fabulous, sometimes I'd forget I was pregnant, the days flew by and I was really enjoying having amazing hair and no more acne and it was fun to find out we were having a boy and to feel Quinton kick for the first time and just getting the nursery ready

Weeks 30-present (aka 34) have been okay, about 4 days out of the week I feel okay and then the other 3 days my back hurts and my top ab muscles kill, I can literally feel them tearing as my belly grows, and my ribs feel like they are going to break and I'm super tired 

Also as a side note pregnancy is so weird in the fact that complete strangers feel the need to say the rudest and nicest things to you all at the same time! I can't complain about getting the special treatment on two different occasions though. The first time Sky and I were at a Creighton soccer game and we had to sit on these brick/stone seats and this stranger behind us let me sit in his camping/fold up chair! Then the second time we were waiting at pretty much the end of the line at the Gladys Knight concert out in the cold and this guy let us budge, wait inside, and sit in the 2nd row (which had the padded seating)! Oh also as far as cravings go the first trimester I just wanted peanut butter, popcorn, hot dogs, bacon, cheese, eggs, and salads with ranch, croutons, and olives. The second trimester I still just wanted hot dogs, these vanilla oreo cookie things from WalMart, and cheese. Then now the third trimester I just want mayo, chocolate, and milk!

Plus so far no stretch marks! I'm not sure if its genetics or what but I bought this stuff at Whole Foods for $9 and I rub it all over me everyday. Since it is 100% real cocoa butter it is solid so everyday I have to chip away at it with a spoon and then I heat the chips up in the microwave to melt it down and then rub it on!

Valentine's Day

I know a lot of people like to say they don't like Vday or don't celebrate it or whatever. But COME ON!!! Who wouldn't love waking up to find a love letter, flowers, ear rings, and chocolate covered strawberries on your kitchen table? I can not lie my husband is perfect! =D

January

I would have to say that January 2012 was by far my most favorite month of my marriage. Sky accepted his new job offer Jan 17th but his training didn't start until Feb 6th which meant we had the whole month to spend together. Having him home all day everyday was the best! I still worked my 3 shifts a week but by the time I got home he would have made me dinner, cleaned the whole house, and done all the dishes! When I wasn't working we would just hang out and go shopping and go out to lunch and just enjoy each others company and watch movies! One super fun thing we did was take a trip to Manti which is literally in the middle of no where in Utah! There is a beautiful temple there that I have always wanted to go to and Sky's grandparents live there! So we drove the 3 hours to get there and stayed with his grandparents in their HUGE log cabin, went to the temple, hung out, and ate good food. Sky's grandpa collects and fixes up old cars so I have included the cool pics we took of them since I promised Dad I would! I must say now that Sky has been back to work for a week and a half I am not a happy camper, I have no idea how I'm going to handle him going through law school and being a lawyer because I know I'll never get to see him then either.





This is the Pierce Arrow, not sure if that's really how you spell it, but his grandpa owns the only one that exists in THE WHOLE WORLD!! It doesn't look perfect in the pic since he is still fixing some stuff on it so its hood is off.


This is an old milk truck and he hasn't even started to fix it up yet but I thought it was cool so I took a pic.

Here are the cars that are done.
