100% sure

I went in today for the follow up ultrasound just to make sure what the sex of the baby is. And it is definitely still a boy. It was kind of hard to see at first because the umbillical cord was right in between his legs, but with some movement and a little patience she was able to determine that there was something there.

Pregnancy

So I went to the doctor last week for my first ultrasound. I was 17 weeks pregnant. This whole time that I have been pregnant it seems so much different than with Connor I guess it is because I am not consumed by the thought of being pregnant everyday. With Connor I remember reading all of the books and it seemed like that was all that I thought about all the time. Don't get me wrong I don't want to sound like am not excited, I am, but I guess I am just suprised at how much faster it is going by and how much less the thought comes to my mind. I go is tomorrow to see what the sex is for sure. When I went in last week the ultrasound tech said that she was pretty sure but not definitely sure that is a BOY. Which is funny because right before we went into the room I asked Mikey to guess what he thought it was going to be and he said a boy. When I was laying there and she was showing us everything I thought that I saw something between the legs, but what do I know!! As for names I have always liked: Cameron, Kasen, Kale, Lucas. Think that we are leaning towards Lucas David. That is one of the only names that Mikey really likes. But who knows it will probably change from now till then. I will update tomorrow with the final answer and with pictures.

Redding

Last weekend Danielle and I took the kids over to Redding. It was really hot so we went to the waterslides a couple of days. On Saturday we went to a bridal shower for my cousin Sashelle. It turned out really nice. Mikey and the rest of my family met us over there on Friday night. On Saturday while we were at the shower Mikey and my uncle went riding in Red Bluff at a really nice motorcylce track. He definitely loves to ride. This weekend we are going to go up to the lake and he is taking his bike over in hopes that one of the days he will be able to go back over to Red Bluff and do it all over agian.

This picture is the day we left it was taken right after Connor woke up from his nap. I loved how he was resting his hand on his face copying my dad.

Carrie Underwood

Last weekend Danielle, Rachelle, Whitney, Lyndsey, Monica, Victoria, and I went down to Konocti to see Carrie Underwood in concert for Whitney's birthday. It was beautiful. We left Saturday morning and when we got there it was 94 degrees:) So we spent a couple of hours laying by the pool. It was so nice to be able to actually lay there and not have to worry about anyone else but yourself. Anyway the concert was amazing, she is even more beautiful in person. It was definitely the best concert I have ever been to. And well worth the money!!

This past week Sheril, Tasha, myself, and the kids decided to brave the smoke and go up to Trinity. The day that we got there it was perfect. There wasn't any smoke at all. Then that night it started to roll in and it never went away. These pictures are on the drive up to the lake in Junction City.





Here are some random pictures from the lake and from Sheril's Birthday party.

Wedding

Here are some pictures of the wedding that a friend took. I will have to post the professional ones later.

Catch Up

It's been a long time since I have even been on my blog, I was feeling kind of bad that I haven't been posting anything new so I was sort of avoiding even getting on the computer. Anyway yesterday my sister Rachelle got married at my parents house in Salyer so for the past couple of weeks we have spent almost all of our time up there getting everything ready for the wedding. Well it turned out beautiful!! She looked so pretty and everything for the most part went really well. We only had a minor interuption during the ceremony which was the only thing that didn't work out perfectly.
So the weekend started with Rachelle taking all of the Bridesmaids to a spa for the day and later that night we went to dinner at Plaza Grill. Which by the way they have really improved their menu and I have been enjoying it a lot recently. Then on Friday all of the girls drove out to Salyer and finished setting up all of the decorations. On Friday night we had rehersal and went to Cinnabar Sam's for dinner. Following dinner the girls went and stayed at a local B&B. We had a great time. All of the bridesmaids were awesome and we all got along great which is pretty amazing considering there were ten of us! Saturday morning we went back to the house and started getting our hair and make-up ready. It was so nice to be at a house and be able to relax and have a lot of time to prep for everything. All in all the wedding was amazing and I am kind of shocked that we have been planning for this for so long and now it is all over. I am not quite sure what I am going to do with all of my time.j/k
I guess I might have to go back to work now:)) I will post pictures of the wedding later.
