Huckleberry!

The last day we were in Bear Lake I finally got Bryan convinced to go Huckleberry picking with me. He didn't think I could handle it, but I did just fine....specially having a bed out there that Chris took so I could rest when I got tired! It was the first time I did it, and let's say I think I did pretty good. But Bryan was definetly the best! He was super fast and filled up a pretty big bucket before everybody else even got close! But he had his incentive...I told him he could only go shoot squirrels after he filled up his container twice! The only problem with taking him up in the mountains is that it got him really anxious to go hunting this season, but Tiffany is due right in the middle of hunting season! I feel bad for him, but hopefully he will still get the chance to go for a little bit!



Me an Jamie resting after long hours of hard work! hehehe...

Now we're back in Rexburg making sure we have everything ready for Tiffany! I started going on weekly doctor appointments which means we're getting really close! Yesterday I think I started to feel some contractions (I think!) but it didn't last long and they never came back, but I can definetly tell that she's dropping, so some positions are very uncomfortable and sometimes her head hurts me a lot when she starts moving. For the most part I'm doing pretty good, I really thought that by now I would be a lot worse, which is good, but some days are just harder than others! Today my mom finally arrives, so I'm really excited to see her after two years! She will be a great help!

Bear Lake

So we're still hanging out in Bear Lake, visiting friends, enjoying the Lake, and I'm just trying to rest as much as I can since I know I'm gonna need it!

Last Sunday I got to see Britt and her little family! It's been over a year and half since I had seen her and it was great catching up! Her little girl is adorable, and really strong with everything she's been going through! I miss hanging out with these girls...we were together all the time during high school, but now everybody is going their own ways...
The LAKE! I love it! just being able to tan and cool off a little has been sooo good! And my belly keeps growing and growing...how much bigger can it get?? I can't wait for next year around this time, she will be old enough to enjoy the lake as well and she already has her swimming suit!
We have to enjoy this belly while I still have it. Even though I can't wait to have our little girl with us, I only have about 5 more weeks so we might as well enjoy it!
Here is me and Paty hanging out at the Parade with the twins! After this we went to the County Fair with our husbands but we didn't get any pictures with them, huh? We should've because we were all matching!
This was just the other day. Bryan's uncle invited us to go with them to the Lake and hang out in their boat! It was really windy and I ended up with allergies (which i'm still recuperating) but it was sure fun!

Baby Shower

Today I had my baby shower in Bear Lake (this is actually my second baby shower, but the pictures from the one in Rexburg are in my useless computer that won't start, so hopefully I'll get them some day!).
Here is me with my belly of 34 weeks! It was so hot in there I thought I was going to melt!
This is the only picture I got with you Paty, thanks SO MUCH for everything you did! It turned out really good thanks to you! You're amazing with your two little girls, and I hope I can handle my one as good as you handle your two!Here is the end result! Lots of adorable outfits, tons of burp cloths, blankes, socks, a full medicine box for any possible thing that Tiffany gets (hopefully she won't be sick much but in case she does, she will be set!), diapers, wipes, oh yeah, and an adorable headband and a tiny bracelet that I can't wait to put on her. There are some toys, a humidifier, and right now I can't think of what else! But I loved everything and it all just makes me more excited to have her finally here!

Tiffany's room

So slowly we're getting ready for her arrival! Yesterday we got the bedding set and I love it even more in person! It has the exact colors I wanted and I love the flowers and bugs (being a horticulturalist and a Flower Designer did have an influence on the choice!!). Now that I know exactly the color scheme I can start to decorate her room...already got some things to work on and I can't wait to get everything ready! My room back home is all purple, and purple has always been my favorite color but since I got married I couldn't decorate things with it so I kinda switched to red (it's more sophisticated!), but now that her room has purple in it and I can start looking at girly things again!!

I also went shopping yesterday in IF and found some WAY cute outfits... now it's sinking in more that I'm going to have a little girl pretty soon and I'm just getting so excited... Everyday I go into her room and look at all of her things over and over again...this also helps me not worry so much about labor and all that, since I'm not a fan of pain at all... but I'll survive...right?! Everybody does!

So I wanted to ask you girls that already have babies....what were some of the "must have" items you think you needed when your babies arrived? I'm just trying to figure out what I should get for sure before she gets here and what things I can wait a little bit since I feel I'm almost running out of time! Almost 7 weeks to go and that is if she doesn't decide to show up ealier (which I wouldn't mind much!) But yeah, tell me what you think!!
