30 weeks!

30 Weeks!

Baby Update!

Here I am at 29 weeks 3 days!

Last Friday I had a Dr's appointment and I had to drink that nasty glucose drink so they could test me for gestational diabetes! I managed to choke down the whole bottle an hour before my appointment like they said only to have it all come back up 10mins later. I was soooo afraid they were gonna make me re-drink it and I knew I wouldn't be able too! Luckily everyone felt sorry for me and my Dr isn't making me re-drink it! YAY!!! She'll just check my blood sugar levels with me fasting when I go back in in 2 weeks.

Also we found out that Little Boy #2 is Breech! So if anyone was to peek in my windows during they day they'd probably find me upside down on my head hahaha I'm supposed to get on my hands and knees with my head down and butt in the air 2-3times a day for 10mins a piece to try and help this little boy flip to heads down position. Hopefully all my headstands (as I call them) aren't all for nothing and we can get him turned before he has no room to turn! I don't want a c-section and I'm afraid of any other alternatives that might be presented in getting him to turn. I'll ask about those at my next appointment and be sure to post an update!
Let's all cross our fingers and hope that he flips on his own!

well off to do more headstands wish me luck! haha

Landon!!!

Just had to show off what a little smarty pants Landon is turning out to be! He is such a quick learner it's crazy! :)

Our Garage Remodel!!!

Lee started this remodel project in November and had a personal goal of getting it done in time for Christmas since we were hosting a Christmas weekend party with his family.

Before...You can see the door going into the garage...
AFTER...no more door! wall completely torn out and opened up into the new living room/bathroom! straight ahead is the bathroom which isn't finished yet but will be soon...we have all the tile and accesories for the bathroom and the plumbing is all done.

The NEW Living room!!!!!! where the two tall skinny windows are, that is where the garage doors used to be. We couldn't use our garage anways cuz the doors weren't automatic and such a pain in the put to force open it wasn't worth the fight and one of the doors was completely unusable cuz it had plumbing from the upstairs coming down from the ceiling in it's way...such a retarded garage! Lee built this spot especially for the new bigger and better tv that he wants haha our tv just looks silly sitting there right now haha
We finally have a back door!!! yay!!! haha so much more convenient! can't wait for this summer when i get to use it a lot! No more going out the front and walking around the whole house to get to the back yard lol We will be having a combination of tile and carpet in front of the door once lee gets the bathroom all situated

Here is a view of the entry way...the floor will be tiled...the stairs will be coming out so we can close off the upstairs and rent it out this spring! Hence the new living room and bathroom garage remodel. Lee wanted to give us more space to live downstairs before we closed off the upstairs to rent it out. :)
Just another view of the new coat closet and stairs you can see how when you walk in the front door it will lead into the new living room once the stairs are out it will be great! no more tiny entry way! We'll be putting stairs outside going to the upstairs and putting in a door.

can't wait to post more of Lee's progress! oh and in case you were wondering in our other living room we're adding a bedroom and pantry and giving us more space for an actual dining room kitchen area! :)

Christmas in Spokane!

After Christmas in Ashton was over we headed up to Spokane on the 27th for some much needed vacation time and our 2nd christmas with my family! We had such a great time and hated having to leave.

All of Lee's christmas dreams came true this christmas! haha He got an air compressor and brad nailer from my parents AND a sawzall! I can't even tell you how long he's been begging me for these two things! My parents did a great job of spoiling him, and me too cuz I got......

NEW STAINLESS STEEL COPPER BOTTOMED POTS AND PANS!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't even tell you how much I LOVE these pans! they're the greatest EVER! I needed new pots and pans soooo bad our cheapo ones from walmart that lee had before we got married were just not cutting anymore! They were rusting for crying out loud but I didn't want to spend money on just any pots and pans to replace them and have to do it again a few years later! I'm soooo grateful for my parents willingness to spoil us! :) I text my mom a picture every time I cook something in them which is basically all the time cuz they're just so great! haha

One of landon's favorite toys that he got from GG and poppa! if you push the button on the front of the tractor it goes and all the animals you can push down on them and they make noise and the farmer sings when you press him down. Landon just loves it! He tries riding it all the time but obviously he's just too big lol



This was taken in Missoula on the way up to spokane when we stopped to let landon out to run and get some food! haha he was biting the straw just right so it was going up and down it was pretty funny!

While we were in spokane we got to go to the movies and my parents took us all out to see...

TANGLED!!! Such a good movie!!! SOOOOO cute! you all have to go out and see it! Rapunzel is my new favorite princess for sure :) haha we all loved it! Even Landon like it cuz there was a horse in it haha

Lee and I got to sneak away on a date and we used our movie theatre gift cards that we got in our stockings to go and see Tron in 3D! It was a good movie your eyes were definitely tired after watching it in 3D but it was worth it haha

New Years Eve was spent at my friends party I brought the cream puffs which were a big hit haha thank you costco! Lee and I and our cream puffs! hahaha Lee looks like he's been eating too many lol haha

All in all we had a blast...wish I would've taken more time to take pictures but oh well we were just too busy having too much fun.

Christmas!

This year for Christmas we stayed in Ashton and hosted a Christmas Slumber party! haha We had Lee's brothers over and they spent the night Christmas Eve which was full of video game playing, eating and my favorite card game Nerts! We had tons of fun! Christmas Day was present opening more video games and lots of food! Kandice helped me put together dinner and we had a great time!


The New living room where the slumber party took place haha

playin' games with Lyman! Robert and Kandice


Christmas Day! Landon checkin' out the cardboard fort that we made him hahaha he loves it!

Star Wars and snowshoes could it get any better? lol oh yes it can and it did in Spokane!
Landon enjoying the mess of Christmas he had more fun in his cardboard fort and rolling around in the christmas paper then he did opening and playing with his presents lol so glad we anticipated that happening and didn't spend a lot on him haha

Round!

Just thought I'd do a quick belly post while landon's napping and I'm taking a break from unpacking and cleaning from the great christmas vacation we had in Spokane! I'll definitely be posting pictures of it...not that I have a ton, ok really I don't have any maybe a couple random pics of Landon cuz we were just having too much fun to take pictures haha But I'll blog about it in a later post as well as a few other things!

So yeah here's my very round belly at 28weeks 5days! :) It's definitely getting crowded in there and I feel sooo huge! haha But I love being pregnant It's just great atleast for me anyways :) Can't wait to see what this little guy looks like but I'm glad we still have time! We think we've officially settled on a name, so that's exciting! Don't want to spoil the surprise you all will find out what his name will be when he arrives :) haha Gotta have some kind of suspense! well gotta go I'll try and blog a bunch tomorrow :) Hope you all had a great New Years!
