Monkey Bars?

This is what I think my little girl is doing in my tummy right now. She somehow must be mistaking my ribs for monkey bars! haha. It's kinda uncomfortable. Anyways, we had another doctors appointment today and baby is measuring a little bigger than average (great...) and her heartbeat was 156 bpm. She is looking very healthy and we are happy for that. We now start visiting the doctor every 2 weeks. 7 more weeks (give or take) until we get to meet our little girl!

Preggo Pic

Alright so I know I haven't been one to take many pictures of my belly but tons of friends and family that don't live close have been asking. Lucky for you guys, my friend Crystal got a picture of us at her shower last week. Here I am at 32ish weeks and I think she is abut 34 weeks:
Thanks for the picture Crystal!

Baby Blanket #1 and Apron

So many people have been asking for me to post what I have been working on lately. However, besides the projects I have already posted about, all of the others are gifts! That's why I haven't posted pictures of them yet. Well, last week I was able to go to my friend Crystal's baby shower and she is having a baby boy so I made her this:


Then, my friend Christina had a bridal shower and I didn't know what I was gonna get her. I had a Joannes coupon that was expiring so I went and looked around to see if I could find anything for my baby blankets. Well, I didn't find anything for my baby blankets but I found this super cute material that reminded me of Christina so I decided on the spot that I was going to make her an apron. I used an apron that I had at home to trace the basic shape and this is how it turned out:


I was very please by how it turned out and I will hopefully make more! That's all I have for now. I will update again once I give out some more blankets :)

P.S. Please don't mind the quality of my picture taking. I'm still not good at this blogging thing.

Wow, I'm a lucky girl!

Today was the last day before the real world starts. Kahili goes in to the Marriott to start his training tomorrow. Today, he spoiled me.

After sleeping in, I was woken up by a delicious breakfast in bed.

I read for a little bit. Sewed a little (BTW, i will be posting my projects and pictures soon!).

Kahili and I rode our bike/skateboard over to Helaman Halls where we played some sand volleyball.

When we got home, I finished my little project while Kahili make us parmesan chicken, rice, and broccoli for dinner.

And lastly, since my back was killing me, he gave me a back massage.

I am so lucky.

So Thankful!

Yesterday when we were going to bed, I told Kahili he better wake me up if the Marriott calls him in the morning. He said, "Whatever, they're not gonna call in the morning...". Needless to say, at 8:30 this morning Kahili came in and when I opened my eyes I saw a huge smile on his face. He said, "I got the job." Plain and simple.

We are so thankful that he got this job that will help him in his career path. He went in today for a drug test and background check. They will let him know when they get the results and then he will start! YAY! We are employed again. :)

i LOVE summer!

WHY? Two small reasons...
This:

and This:
Kahili and I went to Costco on Monday and got some great deals on strawberries and watermelon. It is now Wednesday and we have eaten almost an entire watermelon and half of the 4 pounds of strawberries.... whoops! I love fresh fruit in the summer!

Slack.er

Yep, I've been quite the slacker lately...
Mainly because I feel like I have nothing to blog about but that's just an excuse. We have been doing lots of fun things lately.

*My best friend Katlyn got married a couple weeks ago so we were able to attend the beautiful sealing and reception that were held here in Utah.
*We purchased the Utah Pass of All Passes and have already been to 7 Peaks twice and went mini golfing at Trafalga on Monday for FHE.
*Kahili and I have been cooking like crazy to save money and be healthier and I love it! I should take pictures of some of the amazing dinners we have...
*I have finished sewing 4 baby blankets and I'm almost done with #5. I will post pictures of them later though because they are all gifts and I don't want the recipients to see them quite yet... :)
*We have been looking for a new place to live and it's been hard work. I am on KSL and Craigslist every day trying to find a house/duplex/small apartment complex that will fit all our needs :/ no luck yet.

And lastly, Kahili finds out today if he got the front desk job at the Marriott that we have been hoping for. Fingers crossed and positive vibes our way would be much appreciated! Thanks!

Oh, and today is also the 8 month (32 week) mark for me and baby. Only 2 more months to go!
