32 weeks

I am currently 32 weeks along.....crazy how the time flew by!

I have to say..........I am starting to feel nervous about Aidan arriving. I want him here so bad and yet I feel like I am FAR from ready for the big day to come!

I am grateful for all those that have been and will support me through this though. :)

We finally finished our nursery! Here are the pics!

I am glad to be done with it! Very much thanks to my wonderful husband for doing all the work!

wedding

My younger brother Jon got married on Saturday. He is married now to Lucie. Lucie is from the Czech Republic and doesn't speak English yet. It will be interesting as she learns more English, but kind of fun to see happen. This is a picture of them coming out of the temple.

My friend Katie kept telling me I should buy a new dress for the reception. I was very hesitant because I wasn't sure that I wanted to spend a lot of money for a dress that may not fit me for very long. The morning of the wedding though we had to go shopping for a present. (It was a very busy last part of the month for my husband so this is the only time we had to get a present) So I made Josh take me to Target and I just decided that I would try and buy a nice white blouse to go with one of my black skirts. I found this really cute dress though and I'm happy that I bought it.....I liked how I looked in it!

HOLY COW!

Why did they have to change the way we change our background? They say it's much easier to use, but it just screwed everything up and I had to take more than an hour trying to get it back to normal......thanks blogger. I hate you!
(needed to vent...so frustrating)

What A Weekend!!

This has been an insane weekend to say the least. Not that it was bad, it was just filled with a LOT of stuff. First of all, Friday night we had a "sleepover" up in Midway where Josh's parents are staying during their trip back to Utah from England. We BBQ'ed Italian sausages and ate breadsticks and soup along with them. Then Saturday, after breakfast and hanging around til lunch, we went to eat at Ruby Tuesdays in Park City. Then we went shopping at Tanger's outlet stores.
Sunday- Josh, Matt (brother-in-law) and Linda (mother-in-law)played a music number for Grandma Woolfenden's ward. Then we went to Grandma's and had a mini baby shower for me since this is the only time for Linda to have been here for it. I posted most pictures on Facebook of the gifts but this is a bassinet we are borrowing from Josh's cousin Emily.

We also had a Hawaiian Luau for Linda's birthday with the whole family.

Monday (for Linda's actual birth date) we first went to the zoo. I love the zoo and the animals, but wish they had more big cats. :( They no longer have any jaguars and those were my favorite as a kid.

Then we had a small lunch at Wendy's. Then headed over to the Gateway for more time with Josh's family. (got to make the most of seeing them while we can) We spent, I believe, 7 hours there! LOL We just browsed the shops and bought some things. Josh FINALLY got me a Build-A-Bear (the last time I wanted to get one we were in California, but then I figured it would cost more there) I decided to get a Build-A-Bear Monkey for our little one when he arrives. Here's a picture. We named him AJAY for Aidan Joshua. I love his little outfit. Aidan can play with him as an infant without the clothing (monkey is really soft) and then we can put the outfit back on when he's too old to play for it and just display monkey in Aidan's room.

Wow, full weekend with lots of eating (holy cow!) but most importantly spending time with Josh's side of the family. Linda won't be able to come back for the birth of Aidan (really, how can she judge when to come back from England and if she did--would Aidan really want to come at the time she is here...it's sad, but that's how it's going to have to be)

We will SKYPE a lot though so they can see Aidan on the computer until they can come back and hold him in their arms!

not much going on

Well, this won't be an exciting post, but here's what's been going on.
Josh and I had a Cableas credit card (that we have stopped using) but we had about $82 in points to spend over there. So we decided to buy a 4 burner BBQ. Because of using the points, we only had to spend $139 of our own money. It's fabulous! The box it came in was just SLIGHTLY too large to fit in our car, so I had to run to AF and see if my dad would be willing to bring his truck so we could get our grill home. He did it on the spot, thanks so much Dad! Josh put it together yesterday and we had our first grill yesterday too. (Just wish we could have eaten outside but it was cold by the time it was ready to use)
Josh's parents are flying in late tonight from England for a 2 week visit. Too bad this is a busy time for Josh's work so we couldn't take any time off. Good thing it's Memorial Day next week so we don't have to work that. Josh's mom wants to go to the zoo because that day is also her birthday. Josh wanted to get our front flower area all prepared and planted before they came, but with the crazy weather we have been having lately that never happened. It will sometime this summer though!

It's a baby.........

.....BOY! Found out today! He's quite the mover! So cute! I very much enjoyed the whole ultrasound experience!
