GO BSU!!

Since Brent went to school at BSU we are totally BSU fans! We found this cute little outfit for Dane since we are always wearing our clothing on game day! Its a little big on him but he don't mind!
Dane and Daddy!
Isn't he just so stinkin' cute?!

A few AWWS...

Well as everyone has requested, here are some more pictures. We have been adjusting well. He seems to be sleeping and eating well. Here are a few pictures that I have taken right when I get up out of bed to check on him! I consider myself pretty lucky to have such a handsome son to look at!

He likes to fall to sleep with his Binky in his mouth but doesn't last long in his mouth and ends up being squished up against his face!

Last week he got jaundice. Not bad, but we had to go to Norco and get a bililight and he slept with that for a few days. He slept so good and he was just so dang cute!! His jaundice has cleared up and seems to be gaining weight. He weights 6 lbs 14 oz. So that's good that he is already above his birth weight!!

Go to work with your hubby day...

Brent has been workin some crazy hours. I'm so thankful for him and all of hard work that he does so I decided that I would have a "Go To Work With Your Hubby" day! He suggested that I go on a Friday since they only work tell noon. So this last Friday, I got up at 4:30 in the morning and we were out the door by 5:20. I really had a great time, it was just nice being able to spend a lot of time with him! He took me around the job site in April and man have things changed since then! Here are a few pictures that highlighted the day!

Here is our cool ride! Here we are looking out over the bridge.
Aww...hes so handsome!! I couldn't get out of the pickup except for here because I needed to wear a hard hat and have steel toed shoes...I wore flip flops!!
Here is the Bridge. You don't realize how big and amazing it is until you are there on site. At the very bottom of the bridge you can see little orange specs, that's the workers that are working down there. (If that gives you a comparison to how big the bridge is.) Oh and we went over on the other side too, we went down that rode and from the picture it doesn't look very steep...boy I tell you what, I had to close my eyes I was so scared. You have to have 4 wheel drive to go down and get back out. Here is what it looks like when your down in the bottom of the bridge! Crazy how tall it is!

**As for a baby update, I went to the doc on Monday and was dilated to a 2. My blood pressure has been a bit high so my doc is keepin close tabs on me. We gotta keep him cookin for a few more weeks. But other than that, baby is kickin like crazy and I've discovered that he gets the hiccups a lot! I washed all of his clothes and blankets yesterday and his bag is packed for when he is ready to come!!

What have you been up to?

I always have people ask me what I do to stay busy. Well with moving, unpacking, family, etc I've taken on an extra project that I thought would be a fun adventure. My mom had this old rocking chair down stairs in one of the spare bedrooms. She told me I could have it if I want. The only thing is that my brother took a screw driver to the seat when he was 3 years old so it was a bit distressed! I thought this would be perfect if I sanded it down and painted it white to go in the baby's room! I've never done something like this so I was up for adventure. Sanding took a few days...I've painted it white and I just love how its turned out! I wouldn't say that this is my new hobby but I did enjoy doing it and it has more meaning to me too. I tried not to sand out the marks my brother made so that I can show the baby and tell him about his Uncle Clinto and how silly he was!!
I'm waiting to show you what the chair will look like in the baby's bedroom so that you can get the full affect! I still have a few touch ups that I need to do too!

32 Weeks

Well, I finally captured a picture of my belly. Its not very good one but I'm 32 weeks pregnant here. Every time I think about getting a picture I'm by myself. Here within the next few weeks I'll try to get more. I'm still feeling good...just get a little uncomfortable when we travel to Utah. But I can't complain. I've loved pregnancy. Just as long as I stay in doors and don't get hot! The lill' monkey is wild too!
