Baby Shower!

I am so lucky to have such a wonderful mom and sister who put on the most amazing baby shower for me!

Anyone who came could attest to how much work was put into this special day!

There was plenty of food, games, friends, and fun!

The day was fantastic!

As you can see from the pictures, every detail was perfectly thought-out and planned to-the-t!

Also, I am so grateful to have such wonderful friends who came and supported me!

My family is always there for me!

I am so lucky to have them.

And thank you to everyone who came to spend the day celebrating our cute baby-to-be!

Our Day Today

As some of you may know, I am currently taking an online class to finish my last prerequisite for 

Dental Hygiene.

So, this is the fun that I get to experience at home each week.

Oh yes, it can get messy at times...

And I might break a test tube or two...

But it is always worth it in the end when I get to play with these pretty colors.

In other news...

My husband is having surgery today at 1:30 pm.

It is an Endovenous Laser Ablation and Ambulatory Stab Phlebectomy to be exact.

[Try to figure that one out :)]

Please wish him luck!

Going on 35...

...and ready to POP.

I may not look like I am about to pop, but I sure do feel like I am going to!

I believe that my tummy is stretched to its max.

Oh it is wonderful!

Our little Ryker is doing so well.

He continues to keep me up all night long with his strong gymnastic skills!

He gets the hiccups every night right before I go to bed.

He absolutely loves to constantly push against a nerve on the right side of my stomach!

He loves when I eat sweets... :]

He enjoys pushing down hard on my bladder; sending me shooting messages that I need to empty it.

He gets so excited when his daddy talks to him and gives him kisses!

He loves when mommy sings to him.

And he may come sooner than expected.

I would not trade any of these sweet experiences for anything.

Every little thing that our boy does makes me so so so happy because I know that he is just getting himself ready to come into this beautiful world!

How do You Spend a Rainy Day?

Dancing and playing in it of course!

I wish every day could be like today!

The girls and I had a blast.

Conference Weekend

We absolutely love Conference Weekend!

It is always wonderful hearing from the Prophet and Leaders of our Church.

Also, it is such a blessing to be able to spend it with family.

In between sessions on Saturday, the girls in my family made quiche!

It was delicious.

I say 'was' because the two I made are already gone!

Then, during the Priesthood Session, the girls went out and had some fun!

We went to Ladies' Night at Deseret Book.

The first 100 customers were each given a free plaque.

Of course we got there early so we could have a chance of getting one!

And it was a good thing we did...

There were so many ladies there, but we were fortunate enough to receive the cute gift!

Afterwards, we went to My Big Fat Greek Restaurant!

This place is always a favorite!

Overall, it was an amazing weekend!

I loved cuddling up to my hubby and listening to the wonderful talks given by the General Authorities.

It could not have been any better.

And a big thank you goes out to my mom and dad for making the weekend so fun and enjoyable!!!
