Powell, Football, Birthday and Corndogs.

Yes I am alive-- No need to worry. I am sorry I don't have a good excuse either.
Well we just got back from Powell last week. It was a blast! If you wanna see any of the pictures go to Chelsies blog-- She's the one with the sweet camera!! This week we have been busy with Scotty going back to work ...and football has started up. Can you hear the excitement in my voice?!! He is coaching at North Ogden Jr. and for North Ogden City. Yep you heard me right-- 2 teams, 2 practices a day and games all weekend. I do love to go to the games and see what he has flappin his jaw about all week long. So now I am a widow. But hey ,I get more done around the house!
Well all summer long we have been working on our back yard. I will post pictures when it is all done. Which will be--(drum roll please) MONDAY!! Yes that is the beloved day we will be getting sod. We are so excited. It took us a lot longer and a lot more money-- but It will be so nice when it is all done.
When I get my stupid computer to accept pictures from my camera I will post lots o pics of what's been going on.
On that note-- I painted the baby's room. No I don't know what it is yet but we chose the colors already. We painted the wall Turquoise and we got this sweet funky orange and white rug. So orange and turquoise is what we got going on. If anyone has seen any cute fabric that are those colors please let me know. They are not the easiest to find.
And finally it was my birthday on Sunday!! I love my birthday- I think it should be a national holiday!! I have always grown up with thinking that it's not just your birthDAY it's your birthday WEEK!! So thanks to Chel we made that happen! She took me out twice and we went shopping and had a ball! Today, me mom and Taush went shopping. That's just what we do. Now lately I have hated shopping. I do not fit into any of my clothes anymore and Maternity still seems a little big-- So it sucks!! But today I found a lot of way cute stuff. All maternity- But I love it all. So thanks Mom and Taush for taking me and laughing with me when I tried things on!! I also took a picture of all my fabulous finds- but once again I can't show you-- sorry.
And last but not least- I am feeling huge and fat- not pregnant- but fat. I am sure their are others that have felt the same way as me- tell me what I need to do to make myself feel better.( I am looking for answers like- just eat ice cream or a corn dog) But other than that I feel great, not sick, not too tired. So I really can't complain. I go in next Thursday to the doc, maybe they will be able to tell what it is this time- So hopefully it's not being modest!! If you are still reading this I am sorry it was so long. Thanks for bearin with me!

It's about time we get an update! Happy Birthday! I totally agree it should be a whole week - I'm glad you have peeps that will go along with that also. Congrats on your yard and sod, at least you live in a place that allows you to have some grass!
I am loving the baby room colors - seriously! I want to see pics! Sorry though, can't help you out on the fabric - maybe if you come to Vegas, you can venture out...
Glad you are feeling better!

Happy birthday week love! I'm glad you loved my post dedicated to you! We have been friends forever love :) That's good that your feeling better- Sorry that your feeling so fat- I'm sure you look beautiful with your pregnancy glow. Hurry up and fix your computer so I can see your pics- I lov pics!! If you get too bored while Scotty is away we should plan some thing for us to do together. What do you think??

I think 2.5 corn dogs and 1 oatmeal cream pie is the ticket to making you feel better! Seriously, it works!

Hey there! Happy birthday =)
How old did u turn?
Love the choice of colors for baby room and let me tell you I saw the cutest nursery set that would look AWESOME with those colors. I have been on the hunt for new nursery decor also. Go to Burlington coat factory!! They have sooooo many cute nursery sets and really beautiful high quality baby furniture. The set that would match your room is this bright alphabet/animal set. I am considering it for myself =)
It is totallu unisex also. I bet you could go online and maybe look through what they have. Good luck and I cant wait to hear what your having!

Chelsie told me the baby's room is super cute so I want to see some pictures. Happy Birthweek and happy new lawn time! So exciting. Yeah the in between stage is no fun, where you don't look quite pregnant, but you can't fit into your normal clothes. It's better now though than after you have the baby and you aren't pregnant, but you still can't fit into normal clothes. Boo!

Hope you find out what you are having soon...and let us know! None of this long time between posts crap. Oh and tell Skank good luck with school and coaching this year!
