Our Family: 29 weeks...10 or less to go!!!!!!

"Throughout our lives, we must deal with change. Some changes are welcome; some are not. There are changes in our lives which are sudden, such as the unexpected passing of a loved one, an unforeseen illness, the loss of a possession we treasure. But most of the changes take place subtly and slowly. Day by day, minute by minute, second by second we went from where we were to where we are now. The lives of all of us, of course, go through similar alterations and changes. The difference between the changes in my life and the changes in yours is only in the details. Time never stands still; it must steadily march on, and with the marching come the changes. This is our one and only chance at mortal life—here and now. The longer we live, the greater is our realization that it is brief. Opportunities come, and then they are gone. I believe that among the greatest lessons we are to learn in this short sojourn upon the earth are lessons that help us distinguish between what is important and what is not. I plead with you not to let those most important things pass you by as you plan for that illusive and nonexistent future when you will have time to do all that you want to do. Instead, find joy in the journey—now. Let us relish life as we live it, find joy in the journey, and share our love with friends and family. One day each of us will run out of tomorrows. " Thomas S. Monson

29 weeks...10 or less to go!!!!!!

Seriously, I'm so excited that the time is almost done and we will get to hold our little guy! It seems like the last like 6-8 weeks have gone by pretty fast, thank goodness! I am definitely feeling very pregnant now, like the hard to breath, rib pain, no clothes that fit, back pain and swollen feet almost every night, my back is out of place and needs to get fixed and then I'm sure i would feel a little better but i am to freaked out to get that done so i just deal with it. My doc did say that if i didn't have him early on my own that she would induce me at 39 weeks, but i am definitely hoping he will come before 39 weeks like 38 would be so awesome cause 39 weeks is like Christmas eve for me and he is not coming on Christmas, but who knows they have minds of there own so he may just stay in there forever!
It's so fun to feel him move around in there and feel his little feet and knees and elbows and what ever else it jabbing me! Its nice to actually look pregnant now and not just that weird fat looking stage where people are afraid to ask if your pregnant! I cant wait to get our last 3D ultra sound done and maybe get a peak at his little face since everyone we have had the little stink hides his face, that would also be very helpful in our picking his name cause now we have no idea again as to which one it will be 8(
all in all i love being pregnant but would love to have my body to myself again at the same time. We cant wait to have our little guy here.

Kaylin's Funnies!

set up: nick and kaylin are playing video games.

"your not very good dad, you should let me show you how to do it"

"Iam really snart, i know stuff " (snart: meaning smart)

set up: kaylin wants to sleep in our bed.

"kaylin you need to sleep in your own big boy bed"

"but that is my 3 year old bed and I'm 4 so now I can sleep in this bed with you. its a 4 year old bed"

set up: kiptin pulled the filter off the vacume and I couldn't figure out how to put it back on.

"oh mom why did you take this off, let me fix it"

"no kaylin leave it alone, let daddy fix it"

"I can do it...see mom, fixed"

(a very stupid mom moment for sure...its sad when your 4yr old is smarter then you)

“One’s life….cannot be both faith-filled and stress-free….Therefore, how can you and I really expect to guide naively through life, as if to say, ‘Lord, give me experience, but not grief, not sorrow, not pain, not opposition, not betrayal, and certainly not to be forsaken. Keep from me, Lord, all those experiences which made Thee what Thou art! Then let me come and dwell with Thee and fully share Thy joy!’ Real faith….is required to endure this necessary but painful developmental process.” Neal A. Maxwell
