Full House..

If you are anything like me you have seen every episode of full house multiple times. I would be lying if I said I don't watch it. Cause I do. Well when its on tv anyways. I searched for the picture that I wanted but couldn't find it on the web.

Some of you may remember the episode where Rebecca is expecting twins, about ready to pop, miserable, and wanting her hubby to get a little taste of packing extra weight around. So she gets him a big 'ol strap on belly. I always laughed so hard at this and thought it would be hilarious to do that to my husband. So here at the Hardy home Cody has been getting teased about it for the last eight months. The episode actually came on tv once so I called him into the room to see what I was talking about.. I got a "h*ll no" response. But if I didnt tease him about it, who would?!

Last night:

We were watching t.v and I got up to go to the bathroom. I walked back into the living room and walked over to the computer to look something up..

Cody: "What are you doing?"

Me: I have to look something up.. I gotta get the belly ordered for you."

Cody: Silence.

Me: "If i'm going to spend money on this then you better wear it around.. For just one little day."

Cody: With sad eyes and a serious voice, "Don't spend money on something like that, we don't have money for that....... Just put some rocks in a bag and i'll carry that around."

Hahahahahahaha. He makes me LAUGH.

If you see my hubby walking around with a bag of rocks around his waist.. Don't laugh. I will be laughing enough for all of us.

Have a great weekend!!

P.s- Don't worry, I would never make him do that. I love him too much!

Another trip to the Dr..

I went to the Dr. today and things are looking perfect. My Dr. said that the baby might still be breech because she had a hard time finding the heartbeat. She said that as long as she is head down by 37 weeks then we will be good to go. I gained two pounds and I am measuring right where I should be.

We go back in two week and will be getting checked to see if I am dilating at all.

Temple Time..

Ever since I could remember I have always wanted to be able to enter those beautiful temple doors. I remember always driving by or walking around the temple seeing the lights on inside and wonder what goes on in there. I have stressed about attending and the unknown-ness of the temple. I have stressed and stressed over going. I always dreamed of getting married in the white building and taking pictures with my whole family around me cheering while me and my eternal companion kissed. Life threw me curve balls and things didn't go as I had planned. When Cody and I got married I KNEW that we would attend the temple and be sealed one year later.

Well that one year is almost here!!

I went through the temple for myself on May 13, 2011. I was as nervous as could be and was really worried. I was excited too. If it wasn't for my mom I would of been there by myself, cause I only told like two people I was going. I have waited for this time for so long, and its finally come. I enjoyed my time at the temple and plan to go back as much as I can.

We will be sealed for time and all eternity on June 18th, 2011. Unless, our baby that's due June 23rd decides that she needs to be there. I'm hoping that she comes on time and not early so she can be born into our eternal family. We are excited for this day to be surrounded by both our families and be at the temple. And hey, maybe I can still get a cute picture on those stairs.

Update..

I feel like all I do is post about my Dr. appointments. I promise we do have other things going on, but I can't find the camera cord to upload any pictures. So until I go buy a new cord i'll do a baby update. I went to the Dr. last week and everything is going good. I was at the Dr.'s office for like ten minutes. I gained five pounds in the past month and we now go for visits every two weeks so we are getting closer. I am starting to feel really tired and lazy. I don't wanna do anything. I pee a lot and have a hard time tieing my shoes or putting on underwear/pants. I have been pretty lucky and have had only one bad sleepless night (knock on wood). My back is hurting a lot and have had some bad stomach cramps, my Dr. thought that they were braxton hicks. I haven't had any crazy cravings. I still love icecream and subway sandwiches. Pregnancy is staring to be not so much fun, but i'm sure our little girl will be worth it all.:)

3D ultrasound..

We went to an ultrasound clinic today in Las Vegas. I have been nervous to see our little girl. She is still a girl.:) It was crazy to see her and kinda get a feel of what she is gunna look like. By the looks of the pictures we got I think that she will look more like me. But maybe i'm totally wrong. It seemed she has my nose, my eyes, and my rolls. lol. She looks like she has some chubby cheeks. She was asleep during the ultrasound and wouldn't move for nothing. She also had the umbilical cord right in front of her face. The next time we see her will be in two months when she will finally be here. Happy nesting!!:)

Baby Nursery & Another Dr. Appt!

No this is not my nursery.. I can't figure out how to get pictures to go to the bottom.. Read the post below..:)

We have been working on decorating the baby's room and trying to start getting stuff together. We have the crib, changing table, and rocking chair/glider put together. I keep trying to think of stuff to make the room better and cuter for a little girl. Today at the Dr. we got the mattress for the crib and went and got some blinds for the windows. I keep teasing Cody that I want Franck, from my all time favorite movie Father of the Bride Part 2, to come do the nursery. I mean come on.. Who wouldn't want a nursery like this one (See pictures above)?! Its beautiful! Oh well, I guess I will have to work with what I have..:)

We went to the Dr again today. Everything went well. I had to do the glucose test today to test for diabetes. The drink that I had to drink fourty five minutes prior to my appt was not too bad. It was fruit punch flavored, it was just like fruit punch but watered down. I felt kind of sick waiting. I think it was because I had not eaten since like eight am and my appt was at one thirty! I was so hungry I felt like I was going to pass out and throw up all at the same time. Dont worry, I inhaled a bag a peanut butter m&m's when I was done. I also had to get my finger poked. (I hate that!) The test came out negative. I have also had the most itchy tummy ever so I asked my Dr. if there was anything stronger than just lotion that I can use. It seriously itches so bad! I wake myself up itching my stomach in the middle of the night. She took a look at my stomach and said that she thinks I have PUPPS. (I believe thats what its called). I have little red dots on my stomach. She said it wouldn't hurt the baby, it would just drive me crazy! I bought some different cream to put on it. Hopefully it will help, because I hate being itchy! I gained six pounds this last month. We go back to the Dr. in a month and then we start our every two week visits.

Cravings lately: Cookie dough blizzards & Jerky.

I'm starting to get bigger. Haven't ran into sleepless nights yet. I get up 2-3 times to go pee in the middle of the night. I'm starting to feel more tired and want to sleep lots. I love foot rub and back scrathes. Thank goodness my husband is so supportive and rubs my feet every night.:)

We are doing good and hope everyone else is too! :)

Stay tuned for pictures of my baby room.. I need to get it more put together before I share pictures.:)
