When I'm Not Pregnant. . .

There are a few things that you cannot do while you are pregnant. You never notice how much you do these things until you cannot do them any more. Here is my list of things that I cannot wait to do once Lizzy is here.

1. Sleep on my stomach
2. Crack my back
3. Bend over and touch my toes
4. Wear my wedding rings on my fingers again
5. Walking normal
6. Being able to snuggle with Alan without a huge stomach in the way
7. Drinking a big glass of Cherry Coke and not feeling guilty
8. Exercising, running, biking, hiking, working out my abs, and lifting weights
9. Not have to pee every 5 minutes
10. Run up the stairs

Those are just a few things. I know that one Lizzy is here I hopefully will be able to do them all, I just never really knew the importance of these things until now and I am sure many other pregnant women or mothers know just what I am talking about.

So Much Has Happened

Alright I totally suck at blogging but it gets really hard when I am so busy with school work and being pregnant. Yes I am pregnant. We found out on our anniversary of our first date, it was really special. I am now 35 weeks along and we are having a little girl. We are going to name her Elizabeth or Lizzy for short. We are so excited for her to be here. We have her room all ready we got her cute little purple Nike high tops, we have her car seat and stroller. We just want to know what she is going to look like and be like. She already has quite the personality. She kicks and moves around a ton but when I get Alan to feel her move she stops, so we have to be sneaky for Alan to feel her. I am due June 17th but I have a feeling she is going to come a little early, or at least I am hoping.
During the past few months so much has happened. These are just a few pictures of all the stuff we have done. We went up to Temple Square to see the lights during Christmas time, but it was way cold, rainy, and windy so we only stayed about 10 minutes.

We tried to get a good picture but it was hard with the wind blowing
Alan and I attended our first Salt Lake Real game. It was way fun! Anywhere you sit in the stadium you have awesome seats. Real won, of course because they freakin rock. It was a way fun date night and we got my favorite, churros!

Alan wanted to bring along his American football, and not futbol.
One Sunday we went up to Sundance because we realized Alan and I have never been there together. It was really nice and beautiful, no one else was there and we just walked around and enjoyed the cool crisp air.


We just celebrated our 2 year anniversary of being married. Wow I cannot believe it has been 2 years! We went to our usual location of Stein Eriksens in Deer Valley, Utah. Each year we try to get a bigger room and this year it most definitely was the biggest. Within the first 10 minutes of arriving Alan being the super sleuth he is tried to open a locked door to find out what was in it.
Sorry pictures are out of order, this year Easter was a blast, actually Easter every year is a blast. This is Alan with his Eagles egg, Nick drew the picture.
Alan's number #51
Back to Stein Eriksen's, He tried to open it for the next 30 minutes and unfortunately failed, we figured it was just the heat and air conditioning units.
This is our living room area
Kitchen
Living room with Dining room
King size bed
Bed room with amazing view of the mountain
Another view of the bedroom
Our closet and vanity area
The tub, just getting ready to give birth to Lizzy.
Alan relaxing after trying so hard to open that door
Each year we get a free breakfast and dinner. This years breakfast was by far the best. They first brought out a mango pineapple yogurt that was to die for.
We read the New York Times as we ate to make ourselves look more sophisticated.
Alan thought the little tiny jar of Heinz ketchup was so cute.
My breakfast was french toast with caramelized bananas. This was by far the best french toast I have ever had!!!
Alan got the Restaurant Breakfast with eggs, ham, potatoes, and english muffins.
Every year we take a huge bubble bath and this year we made the 'Tower of Bubble'. We had so many bubbles we built our own tower. We over flowed the bathtub with bubbles it was a lot of fun.
Alan is somewhere in there.
Right before we checked out we did our traditional tossing of the water balloons from our balcony.
Me with my cute pregnant belly getting ready to throw my balloon.
As you can see a lot has happened. We both still work at Convergys for the Directv project I also started up again at the doctors office where I used to work just to try to get a few more hours here and there and I might need to work there after I have Lizzy. I will be quitting Convergys soon though because of Lizzy and hopefully get to be a stay at home mommy. Alan might be looking for a new job, it all depends on a lot. and Alan has only 2 semesters left till he graduates with his Bachelors degree in Marketing, I only have about 3 semesters left and I changed my major to Family Life, Family studies. We still live in our town house which we love and we have many more adventures to come especially with our little Lizzy on the way very soon.
