Baby cribs and hiccups

Well crib hunting has been quite a headache for us. I found the one that I wanted at Babies-R-Us and of course it was on back order. A few weeks had gone by and no call from the store and I was getting so frustrated! I finally started to give up and not worry since for the first couple of months she'd be in the bassinett that we got from my mom and sisters, which is PERFECT by the way! But I still want to get the nursery set up and looking cute! Especially because we got SO many cute things from showers! (which is a post in the making) Anyway, I don't know how we got so lucky, but Zac's Aunt Erin and Uncle Skip mentioned that they still had their crib and all of the pieces. So...we went to look at it and we loved it! It is exactly what we want in a crib and we even like it better than the one we were looking at. They let us take it and we were so excited to put it all together! There were a few of the nicknacks missing so we made our way to Home Depot and of course they had what we needed! So we went home and got started.
My hubby is the greatest! He was more excited than I was!



Me! I tried to help but didn't do so much after I tried to screw something in and stripped it...oopsy :)



Our adorable bedding I can't wait to set up! Thanks mom!






Finishing pieces...



TaDa!



Now all we need is the mattress and we are set! As for the hiccups part. Our sweet baby girl has been getting the hiccups very frequently lately! A few days ago I kept feeling her move, more like a flinch, every 5-10 seconds or so. It felt like a pulse and it was making me nervous because I had no idea what it could be! Then my smart friend Kelli suggested the hiccups! I think it's SO cute!! She gets them twice a day. Once in the morning and once at night. Who knew babies still in the belly could get the hiccups? I love it! I also had my doctors appointment today and I had to do the Strep B, whatever it's called, test today. Now begins the once a week appointments until the big day! They also checked to see if I was dialated at all. The results....a big fat ZERO! No dialtaioin. Maybe next time!

Salt Lake County Champs!

Zac's basketball team took first place in the Salt Lake County basketball league this year! They all played really well and it was a lot of fun to watch them play over the past couple of weeks. They had only lost one game, so for the finals they played the team that was currently in first place. They beat them pretty bad...by 16 points




Congrats guys on a great win!

2 posts in one day, I'm on a roll!

Last Friday we had our tour of the hospital and let me just say I LOVE where we are going to deliver!! It is such a nice place! My favorite part of the whole thing is a couch in the rooms that pull out into a bed for Zac, the babie's first bath is done in the room right in front of you! (I don't know if they do that everywhere else but I'm excited), you don't have to share a room, AND their staff/security is amazing. They know everyone who is coming and going. I knew the hospital would be great, but going on that 20 minute tour really reassured me that everything will go smoothly (cross your fingers) and that we will be helped throughout our whole experience. I'm still really nervous about the huge needle used for the epidural but I'll probably be welcoming it when the time comes! I'm 33 weeks and 3 days today. With a month and a half left some people tell me it goes by slow, but I know it will be here in no time! Here are some pictures of our baby kicking my belly. I think she's ready to come out already!

Her poking a little bit

Is that an arm or a foot???

And that is why the inside of my stomach is so tender on that spot!

Scofield

A few weekends ago we were able to get our trailor ready and take it to Scofield for the season! Yay! With our spot finally leveled out the way we need it, the trailor sits perfectly! I absolutely love it! It is so nice to be able to get away from everything for a day or two. It's been quite different this year with Jake being home and always having a bunch of friends down there! Usually it's the married couples who just bum around in peace. I feel old when I see the non-stop energy they have...but I'll blame it on the pregnancy! Here are some pictures of us getting the Prowler into position.

TaDa!!


We also went down Memorial Day weekend where Zac and I forgot the keys to the trailor...oopsy. Luckily we were able to break into a window that hadn't been locked and they hoisted Brant up and through the window! So the whole weekend we were very careful to make sure and keep the door open while eveyone was out of the trailor. On Sunday a handful of the boys had the opportunity to speak in sacrament at the Scofield branch. They all did such a good job! Gordy opened and introduced everyone. Then Zac, Jake, Chase, and Trevor all spoke on the first discussion. It was a lot of fun to hear them speak! I even shed a few tears they did so well. Then during church we had discovered that someone (Linds) shut the door behind them locking us all out again! We were all hoping that the window wasn't shut all the way and luckily it wasn't! So Brant once more climbed through the window and we were able to get in! There's never a dull moment down in Scofield!
