Plus sides of pregnancy!

As I have layed in bed for the last four days, with the flu. I decided to challenge myself to come up with 10 things that I enjoy about pregnant. Because I know it's so easy to find reasons that I don't enjoy being pregnant. Especially when I know this is probably the last, I'm trying much harder to enjoy this pregnancy! So here's what I came up.........


#1 I love the close parking spots reserved for expectant mothers!
#2 Hearing the baby's heartbeat for the first time.
#3 Seeing the baby on an ultrasound, and finding out the sex!
#4 Fast growing nails.
#5 Fast growing hair.
#6 Laying in bed and "watching" my stomach dance all around.
#7 Seeing the excitement of a growing baby through the eyes of my kids.
#8 Feeling the baby moving all around.
#9 Hearing the giggles of my kids as they get to feel the baby move.
#10 Knowing that after 9 months I will finally get to hold this baby!!



And this picture shows how I feel about the other 99% of the time!

Tag, I'm it....Four things you may not know about me!

#1 I'm TERRIFIED of flying on airplanes!!



When we moved here to Liberty Lake, Bill's work would have paid for us to fly here for a house hunting trip. But instead of having to fly, I decided I would rather load all 4 kids in the car and drive 18+ hours! Sooner or later I'm going to have to get on a plane, or my husband and family will see the world without me. So I'll have to find some good meds!!

#2 I LOVE listening to 80's music!



I know pretty pathetic....I was pretty excited when I found the 80's station here in Spokane!!

#3 I HATE HATE HATE public bathrooms!


I will travel from here all the way to Utah, while being pregnant and NEVER go to the bathroom. (I know just what everyone wanted to know about me!)

#4 I have NO big tonails!
Just ask my kids they love to point it out to everyone. I had one to many ingrown toenails as a kid so the Dr. finally killed all the nerves (or something) so they would never grow back! Had I only know then how badly I would miss having toenails, I probably would have put up some kind of fight! It's just not the same wearing flip-flops with UGLY toes!



There you have it, nothing too excited, but maybe there is something new that you didn't know about me!!

SCORE!!

Saturday was the first game of the season for Dallin. Dallin made it an extra special first game of the season by scoring his first goal ever!! Way to go Dallin!



What a smart kid Dallin is. A number of times after the game Dallin would ask for things, such as lunch at Mcdonalds and ice cream just to name a few. Then he would let us know that it was "his first goal ever"! We were so proud of him that of course we had to give him a few of his wanted items!!
