34 WEEKS!!



So.....almost done.....and officially miserable! I don't really think about it until I try to do something I can't. Like lately I have had such a hard time tying my running shoes, walking up the steps at the gym, carrying Kacey around, scrubbing the bath, getting up off our couch, but worst of all, I can barely fit in my desk at school. I am going to have to start sitting sideways.....it is not very comfortable to say the least. I am starting to go a little crazy not knowing what it is.....I haven't cared until just lately because Harmony keeps getting me to go to these great baby garage sales and I could be getting a ton of stuff for real cheap if I knew! I am sure waiting will be fun though...I am pretty anxious. Although I would have to say I am almost convinced it is a girl because Mark and I just can't agree or even come up with any boy names......it's a sign!

Oh and it is getting hard to stand for long periods of time which is so hard for Kacey's new love! The swing.....she loved it at 5 months then hated it until now and will not get out of it without a fit. The worst part is that it is in the front yard so it's hard to go a day without standing out there for at least 30 min but more like an hour swinging her. I wouldn't mind if my leg didn't go numb after about 5 min.


This toy below is also new to Kacey and she just has to be such a daredevil on it. She does no hands, stands on the back, fake falls, and flips it over herself.....she is one crazy girl.

New Toy!!

Kacey's favorite candy is a sucker! Definitely gets that from daddy otherwise it would be chocolate!! She gets them all the time from the gas station and Dr. office and a ton on Halloween! She was doing this cheesy smile so I had to get a picture.




She found a baby broom in Oma's closet and now sweeps our carpet....what a big helper!

Thank you Kathy Barrett for this awesome slide!!!! Kacey loves it so much. She was a little shy in front of the camera. She usually squeals and screams when going down. We are going to stop by this week to help with your blog! (I'll call ya)

SO SPECIAL!!!

I've been tagged for the first time.....I am not sure if that is good or bad! It does require thinking and typing! Thank you Brianne!!!!????


The rules:
A. The rules of the game are posted at the beginning.
B. Each player lists 6 facts/habits about themselves.
C. At the end of the post, the player then tags 6 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog.

1. I have to workout every day. It is awful! I have committed to not workout until after my six week visit after this baby and am afraid I will not be able to stick to it. I want the break so bad but I just can't do it. I took 2 days off after Kacey and I think it did more harm than good...to my recovering body! I am obsessed and hate that I am. Being a personal trainer surely didn't help this nasty habit....in fact since that job I think the obsession is worse. This is the worst habit when pregnant!!!! It just doesn't go!

2. I am crazy about saving money. This has just become a new habit. I listen to Dave Ramsey everyday and cry when people tell their stories of being debt free and screaming it on the phone. I just recently downgraded our cell phones, cable, canceled netflix and Mark's 24 hour membership(he's been 2 times in the last 4 years) just to save more for our house. I would love to be debt free of a house 15 years after we purchase it. Speaking of 24 hour fitness if anyone is reading this that wants coupons they are yours! I have 2 and they are for my rates I pay now $25.95 a month...that's with kids club included. No other fees involved...they expire at the end of November. Let me know.

3. I chew Sonic ice constantly especially when pregnant. I love it and need it. In fact, Mark and I got in an argument tonight because I ran out and was upset it wasn't replenished immediately. Kacey has also picked up on this habit and tries to chew it like me....pretty funny...since she doesn't have many teeth but she still manages to crunch!

4. Doing laundry and leaving it in the basket all week! I hate this habit.... by the end of the week they are all wrinkled and then I have to iron or just wash again.

5. I love to be a mom but I also miss going to work. I wouldn't trade raising my kids for anything but I miss the adult interaction and friendships made, so I am going to try and pull off both when they are in school.

6. I am super paranoid about locking the doors and making sure the garage is shut! I check about 3 or more times just to make sure. I am always scared someone is in the house or trying to open the doors. I watch crime shows too much and when pregnant this paranoia increases tremendously.....I drive everyone in the house crazy!

I don't think I know 6 bloggers that haven't been tagged so we'll try these.....Becki J, Ashley C, Aleshia G, Kuulei, Kathy B and Emily L. If you've already done one of these you're off the hook!
