I realize I do a lot of these bulleted blog posts. Hopefully they’re not annoying but sometimes I have a lot of random things to say and this seems like the best way to do it. I did my nails last night for the first time in forever. Including my toe nails. Guys, do you […]
Last night I went through my parents’ genealogy to look for possible middle names. Here are the best. Maybe you can help me decide which one to use: Vida Luella Honor Bessie Olive Gay Well well well.

I always play the, “What was going on one year ago,” game. One year ago, a little seventh grader was changing my life. As you might remember, I did a mentoring program while I was at BYU where we got paired up with sixth graders and hung out with them on campus for an hour […]
Our crib arrived today! Thanks to my in-laws for the amazing gift and for setting it up! I will show pics once the nursery is complete. I’m in a very crafty mood. Now if I just felt good enough to do something… Stupid cold! Julie and Julia was just on. Do you love that movie […]

36 Weeks Friday night, T.J. promised he’d take me out to eat so we chose Red Robin. I love that place because of their fries (obvs.) and you can substitute a turkey burger for the regular burger AND they have this awesome pretzel bun right now that you can also substitute for a regular bun. […]
You remember in that YouTube video David After the Dentist where he asks his dad if this is real life? Last night when I was laying in bed with those cramps, I worried myself to the point of where I thought, “Could I really be going into labor? Is this really happening? Is this real […]
This evening I started getting pretty bad pains in my lower abdomen and lower back, they feel like cramps. At certain points through the night they’ve reallllly hurt and have moved all around the stomach, right now it’s really hurting underneath my belly button. I want it to be 8:00 am so I can call […]
