I have found that I am at times completely oblivious to my growing belly. I honestly don't know how I could forget about it, I still have about 2 months to go, but I look like I could deliver tomorrow. I never thought that I could shut my own stomach in a car door or lean into the bathroom counter and bounce right back off, but I have and I do. It makes me laugh every time. And it is only getting worse the bigger I get.
A bigger belly has it's pay-offs though. I can sit there and watch my stomach morph into all sorts of different shapes and angles. I can feel my baby boy rub across my tummy as he turns and searches for just a little extra space.
There have been quite a few women who have told me that they regret not taking more pictures of themselves while pregnant. I haven't taken tons, but I have been trying to get a few. Here is my most recent picture. I am 32 weeks and can't believe I only have 8 weeks left!
I can't believe that we have just a little less than 2 months to go until we get to meet this little boy! Time is flying by and I don't think it will go any slower during this holiday season.
Last night at Lamaze class we were able to go on a tour of the new Women's Center here in Logan and I cannot tell you just how much fun I had. I am so excited.
But no matter how excited I am, I still have to face the fact that I have loads to do before he gets here. One thing I am proud to say is that I have finished his blanket. Although his blanket has been finished for quite some time, there was a time in the midst of making it that I honestly thought I wouldn't have it ready on time, if at all. I am not crafty and I really surprised myself by the outcome of this blanket. So now I have to brag a little and show it off. 
The blanket honestly took me forever, but I am pleased with the finished product. The little outfit in the picture is the first and only outfit I have bought for him (hopefully he won't get sick of wearing it every other day) and the lamb was a gift from his Grandma Geri.
Morgan's nephew Mason had a marvelous birthday party this year. His birthday is on Halloween and is usually Halloween themed. This year, he had a costume party and a bunch of really fun games. All us adults even got in on the fun.
I couldn't stop laughing at the sight of Morgan. I didn't look so great either, but Morgan in a dress with pink hair was quite a sight.
We had donuts on a string eating contest. Yummy!
And we even got to mummify Grandpa!
We headed out to Greg and Maleia's (the 71 Ranch in Elko, Nevada) for Thanksgiving. We had a wonderful weekend with family. The weekend went way too fast, though. We arrived in Elko on Wednesday evening and before we knew it we were having to get ready to come home.
We are sure lucky to be surrounded by such a wonderful, loving family. Between both of our families, we have an abundance of support and so many fun memories and traditions.
I am! I am! I am so excited for Thanksgiving, I just can't wait. That's why I made a pumpkin pie already and have been dreaming of the Thanksgiving break for only about a month. :)
What a wonderful time of year! Who can resist a break from school/work, spending time with family, taking extra time to remember all we have to be thankful for, and of course.... 
....all that wonderful food.
Birthdays are the best! Especially when it is my sweetheart's birthday!!! His birthday was on the 3rd, but we celebrated with his family on the 12th. We also celebrated his sister Melissa's birthday on the 12th. It was so fun. Morgan flattered me and asked me to make him Baked Alaska. I was so excited. I love to make Baked Alaska, but I still haven't perfected it. Although, I will say that this year's cake turned out pretty great! (I promise I am not bragging at all :)
Happy Birthday to my handsome, wonderful husband!!
I love how excited kids get about birthday candles and yummy cake!! (There are two kids in this picture, Morgan and our nephew Henry.)
Just another random picture Morgan took of me. He does that a lot. :) At least I know he likes me . :)
Morgan's sister Melissa and her darling family. Happy birthday Melissa!! I love Jon and Emma's big eyes in this picture, they look a little surprised. :)
This last picture was just for fun. When we got home after his birthday party, I made Morgan take this picture. I am about 25 weeks along in this picture.
