The baby is now the size of a sweet potatoe, kinda confusing because I know some oranges that are bigger that sweet potatoes! But only 2 weeks until we find out the sex. I started to feel the baby last week, now I feel it everynight!
So for the past three nights I have found this bottle of conditioner on the Sink in the bathroom. I bought it and didn't like it but I saved it underneath the sink in case I ever run out and need it. So for three days I put it back under the sink only to find it out again the next day...finally last night it dawned on me. So I asked James if he thought it was lotion. He looked at it and said "it isn't" for the past three days he has been rubbing conditioner on his arms and face! Too Funny!
OUr little one is now the size of an orange. lol But it is starting to play nice now, I am not sick everyday now just on occassion. I haven't gained any weight yet but I feel like I have.
Continuing the march towards normal proportions, baby's legs now outmeasure the arms. And, finally, all four limbs have functional joints. Your fetus is squirming and wiggling like crazy down in the womb, though you probably still can't feel the movements
Jan- We were able to spend a long weekend in Mackay when Lindsey brought Braxten into the world. I enjoyed staying and holding him and also playing lots of linkin logs. James went ice fishing for the first time and took Jaten with him for an afternoon. They tied a "previously caught fish" to Jaten's spiderman pole and he loved catching the same fish over and over. Just 14 days later Ryan and Mckinzie brought Kambree into the world. I love being an aunt!
Feb-Brought more snow, It was a challenge everyday just to get to work. James took his annual guys trip to Vegas for NASCAR. While they were gone the girls got together for a girls night and then I spent the weekend in Mackay for Braxten's Blessing.
March-We went to Challis for a Fishing trip for "our" birthdays. We met up with our Friends Dave and Shila and went to Salmon for Dinner and dancing at a retirement party...little did we know that I would lose James' hand and fall and break my wrist during the first song! So we spent the rest of the night in the ER and then we headed home so that I could get a cast in Boise.
April-I spent most of the month trying to do everything with my left hand (never again) Even simple tasks like washing my hair became a problem, luckily James was a good sport about it all. For easter all of the Pearson family came to boise for Kambree's blessing.
May-After it got a little bit warmer we got the Boat out and did most of our skiing for the summer, it seems like as June and July get here we get busy and dont have as much time to go.
June- We spent a long weekend at Wolfe Creek in Utah with my family. It was fun to play in the pool, ride on the scooters and just hang out with the family.
July-Our friends Dave and Shila moved to Fruitland when Dave got a job with Fruitland PD. It has been so nice having them here. James and I won a trip to Lake Las Vegas with a bunch of our friends. We had a great time and enjoyed staying in the Ritz, Shopping, playing in the pool, and even a little gambling. We also went to Red Fish for a long weekend (my favorite place on earth)
August- I quit my full time job to work from home. Its always a challenge to not have the security of a regular pay check but we have been very blessed that things have worked out so good for us.
Sept- We spent Labor Day weekend at Redfish lake. It was so cold! Our friends Tommy and Sarah came with us and brought the motor home, which was good for us when we woke up monday morning to 6" of snow! The boys had no problem putting on their wetsuits and actually getting in the water to ski! We also celebrated our first Anniversary. James got me Sex in the city and even sat down and watched it with me (now thats true love!)
Oct-We found out we were Pregnant with our first child. Both us were both scared and excited. I went to Lindseys state volleyball tournament to help out and was able to surprise my mom with the good news. James' mom started jumping on the couch when we told them! James spent several weekends in Mackay hunting.
Nov-James spent a couple weekends steelhead fishing (his favorite)Ron and Wendy came up and we had an early Thanksgiving with them. All of my family was together for thanksgiving in Boise, as always it is great to have everyone together.
Dec-Greated me with lots of morning sickness (something I was sure I would never have!) After a month and a half of it I was finally given an RX that saved my life! We had a wonderful Christmas and we were able to spend it with both of our families.
We have been so blessed this year. I am so greatful for the wonderful family and friends that we have!
