a new "blog"inning

you may have given up on me... but i'm back... and pregnant. if you didn't know this, you are way out of the loop. this has been an exciting couple of weeks for two reasons - number one, we finally found out we are having a boy and i must say he is going to be a handsome little guy. number two - the halfway point has come and gone as of last week! yay! now i get to watch my little ipregnancy app on my phone show the days getting less and less. this is very exciting.

i also must tell you that i have many a good reason for giving up on the blog for a few months. not only did a bun slip into my oven, but i do in fact work everyday and i still teach classes during the week and i am the newly acclaimed YW president in my ward. so i feel ok saying i've been a bit busy. and let's not forget i already have a baby-- louie the min pin-- and a husband. see how busy i am.

if you're wondering about my pregnancy it's really been great so far. the first trimester kinda sucked for about three weeks when no food sounded good. all my favorite things to eat didn't appeal to me. i also really don't like feeling fat. i am finally to a point where i actually look pregnant to other people. noticing my pants feeling tighter and tighter and the zipper being harder and harder to close was depressing to say the least... but i'm on to stretchy pant phase and i haven't looked back since. i also might be a little emotional... or alot -- just don't ask jake which it is. oh and i don't function socially after 10pm. good times with me.

so -- here it is. me at 20 weeks (even though now i'm 21 weeks - woot woot!) sorry about the matching purple wall and purple shirt... not on purpose.
