Looking Back

Today I learned that you can do minor edits on YouTube. That’s why that last video of Eva has that corny music, overused filter, and cuts off instead of just fading out. But it’s better than the boring videos and it’s kind of fun to use. So, I did two more from our wedding and it’s inspired me to finally edit all of our footage from the wedding (on Final Cut, not YouTube). Looks like I’ll be taking some trips to campus soon.

Our Little Mover

The other day one of my friends with two little girls told me to make sure I take videos of Eva now when she’s in this stage because, although they don’t do much and it may seem boring, I’ll want to look back and see her when she was this little. So, although it is kind of a lame video… just admire Eva’s adorableness.

I don’t like what you say!

Ring Out Wild Bells

I hadn’t really taken time to think about my new year’s resolutions, but after watching The Office episode today where Pam makes everyone write down one goal for the year, I decided I should write mine down too.

  2. Go to the temple once a month
  3. Hold an FHE every Monday
  4. Do my Visiting Teaching every month
  5. Remember to do family prayer every night
Health Goals
  1. Get down to my wedding weight
  2. Make 3-4 dinners a week
  3. Be able to run a mile without stopping… I know that sounds really easy, but I have never been a runner!
  4. Work out 4 times a week
  5. Eat more fruits and vegetables
Personal Goals
  1. Stick to our budget
  2. Read at least one book a month
  3. Always show my husband that I love him

The best things about not being pregnant:

  1. I can sleep on my back and my stomach again.
  2. Being able to cut my toenails and shave without getting out of breath.
  3. Losing weight like crazy because of breast feeding. Best self-esteem booster ever!
  4. My wardrobe doubled… It was like a pre-Christmas gift when I got my old clothes out of their boxes.
  5. Eva!

We’re number one!

Guess what! I am the most pregnant woman at my doctor’s practice! By a long shot, too… Everyone due last week have had their babies and everyone due THIS week have already had their babies too. Except for me. It turns out my baby just is really competitive and is already the best at something even though she’s still in the womb! How many babies (well, their moms) get to say that?

The doctor says that there still is no progress at all down in the ol’ baby region, but all the tests went well today, so I get to spend another couple days at home with a full night’s sleep. I thought they were going to induce me on Thursday, but turns out they start the process on Wednesday afternoon… 3 PM to be exact. More deets to come. Stay tuned!

Until then, you better believe I’m going to try to sleep a lot and “treat myself.”

Tradition… Tradition!

Every year in the Swainhart household for Thanksgiving, my mom would break out the ol’ flannelboard and read this Thanksgiving poem. We all made hated it and would make fun of my mom (in the nicest way) when she couldn’t get through the thing without crying. As we got older though, it just became a fun tradition. This year, my parents spent Thanksgiving at my brother’s home in Texas and, of course, my mom brought it all with her and my dad had to record it. I think my favorite part of the video is my Uncle Tim laughing through the whole thing,my mom’s Kentucky accent that comes out every once in a while, or all the background sounds my dad added.

‘Tis the Season

Since I majored in Advertising, I can’t help but to notice all the great campaigns that come out during the Christmas season. So, I’m sure I’ll continue to keep posting more of my favorite YouTube videos. Enjoy these two… they’re quite different, but I love both of them!

Is it just me?

I hate how everyone laughs during Kevin’s solo because of stupid Buzz’s prank in Home Alone 2. How rude!

(Sorry this is in Spanish, but it still works…)
