So we all know that I have the BEST job! I love it! Today at school, in my 4-5 year old class, two of my adorable kids were having a conversation, and I was quietly listening as I was cleaning up the table. I was laughing so hard, that I couldn't interrupt their conversation for a few seconds because I didn't want to embarrass them. This is how it went.....
(This is a 5 year old girl, and a 5 year old boy sitting on the floor reading one of my "Kid Encyclopedias" about people with no hair.)
Girl: My mom has a hairy penis! It's disgusting! (This part had me laughing the hardest probably)
Boy: (Laughing) Well, my dad has big hairy boobs and big balls, and really stinky feet! That's disgusting!
Girl:Well, my mom has boobs, and they aren't gross. She feeds the baby with them. She drinks milk, and it goes into her boobs, then she fills up the baby!
Boy: (Makes a shocked face) Weird!
A few moments of silence.
Boy: My dad kisses my mom! It's disgusting!
I had to distract them after that! Who knows where that conversation could have gone!
Funniest thing that happened to me all day!

Version at 37 weeks (Flipping the baby)
Last night, I read tons of stuff on the internet, and there is a few yoga moves I can try to try and flip this baby! I've been doing them, maybe I can flip it by myself!
I love Yoga!

Appointment 8
Today- 36 Weeks.
Don't mind my incredibly unhappy face. I told you I was grumpy today.
Last Sunday 35 wks. 2 days. Notice the BIG difference?
Well, today was eventful at the Doctors.
First off, I was in a horrible mood today.
Well, maybe not horrible, but I was tired.
Every person on the road driving was annoying me.
Scone cutter by my house shut down when I really, really wanted it for lunch!
I got Mykelle to school late.
I can't sit normal.
Anyway, I cheered up by the afternoon.
Today at the doctors was my first "Fun" appointment.
They did the check for Strep B. Super Fun, and then checked my cervix for dilation and thinning.
This is also when the Doctor became very concerned. He couldn't feel the baby's head at all.
Yep. The baby's breech.
He gave me an ultrasound to confirm it, and sure enough, the baby's head is right up by my ribs, and his legs are way down low.
I didn't really know what to think.
The Doctor said my cervix wasn't thinned much because there is no pressure from the baby's head on my cervix. I was dilated to a 1 1/2.
We then talked about what could be done, because I do not want to have a c-section.
Not just because I don't want my stomach cut, but I don't want to have to deal with the recovery time, and also, I want to be able to hold my baby right when it is born, and all that fun stuff that comes with a natural delivery.
He is honestly the sweetest Doctor, and made me feel so much better about the situation.
He immediately went across to the Maternal Fetal Medicine (After telling me I could get dressed so I didn't have to sit butt naked on the table anymore. I hate that.) He talked to a Doctor over there, and got me an appointment next week to have the baby turned. Or try at least. I guess the Doctor is very busy, so I was very happy to be fit in.
The only problem is that there is no guarantee the baby will stay head down, so they would have to schedule an induction for the following week (April 7th), and pray that my cervix will ripen. They may have to help with that too.
If the baby doesn't turn, or won't stay turned, then I have to have a scheduled C-section at 38 weeks as well. So either way, looks like I'm going to have a baby in 2 weeks unless things change.
2 weeks seems too early. I am scared about that too, but I know that baby is full term at 37 weeks.
It was a lot for me to take in, and I was fine when I was in the Dr. Office, but when I got in my car and called Seth, I started crying.
I think I was mostly surprised, because I thought for sure it had flipped and went head down. It felt lower (which it is) I was just surprised. After I cried for a minute, I was ok, and ready to do whatever I needed to do.
I still really, really want to have a natural birth, and still hope and pray this baby can turn around.
Dr. Ras said that this Doctor is so good, and he really thinks he can flip the baby because I am thin, and I have so much amniotic fluid. Thank Goodness.
Anyway, I have gained 2o pounds, and my belly made a HUGE jump from 32 to 35 cm. He was so surprised, he measured me twice. I KNEW my belly grew a ton this last week! I knew it! It's GINORMOUS!
Anyway, I felt so much better after I came home and talked to Seth.
I have a few pictures of my belly too, but my camera is dead, so check back and I'll add some.
Oh and Jamie, Remember what I told you I was going to ask him? I did, and he said everything looked great!( In a non-creepy way!)

The Good Fruit
The joy of toddler's messes. I'm still excited to meet our baby!
I can deal with messes.
Trey 18mths.
Oh my goodness! Kids say the cutest things!
Last night after reading about the real meaning of Easter for FHE, we were getting ready for family prayer on the floor, and Trey got upset about something that Seth did, and ran to his bed.
He told us he was going with Jesus.
I asked him where they were going, and he said he was going to cross the bridge ( The iron rod) to eat the good fruit with Jesus.
(The "good fruit" is from the story about the Tree of Life, and the story of Lehi's dream when they were holding to the iron rod.)
It was so cute. It got me all teary eyed.
The things kids remember, and the way they perceive things is so sweet.
He was so cute and serious when he was saying it. Then he asked if I wanted to come eat the good fruit with them.
He is the sweetest boy. Ever.

Thursday Confessional has been MOVED
My confessions will now be on Haphazard Paragraphs.
JUST A THOUGHT:
You should all consider adding the "Followers" Gadget to your blogs. That way, I can become a follower and see when you update. I don't want to add the blog roll. Think about it.

Our 5th Anniversary
Las Vegas 2008
Simple, and sweet. I'll save you from the details on all the mushy stuff in the card, but it was really sweet.
We went out in Logan on Friday AND Saturday night. Our waitress on Saturday asked us why the heck we would go to Logan, but we were really just enjoying being with each other, and it didn't matter where it was.
We also went and saw "Valentine's Day" It wasn't that good in my opinion. I thought it was really long actually. I did cry at the end though. (The Julia Roberts part. I missed my kids a little.) On Saturday night we made dinner together, and went to the pool. I looked hot let me tell you! Actually, I didn't try on my swimsuit before we left, so I didn't know exactly how it would fit. Lets just say all you could see was boobs. I actually felt really uncomfortable in it, and we didn't stay long, also Seth hates public hot tubs. (Me too actually. Do you know how many dead skin cells float around in all those bubbles? Nasty!)
I can't believe Seth and I have been together for 7 years. It's crazy how fast time has gone by.
Now I know that marriage is far from easy. It is really hard sometimes. But it also is one of the most wonderful things ever! When you get through the tough times, you feel so strong, and your marriage is strong too.
He is my Best friend, and he really treats me so good.
I've never felt more beautiful to HIM than I do at this point in our life, and I KNOW he loves me so much!
That's really important to me, and any wife really.
We will have been married for 10 years!
Mykelle will be almost 11.
Trey will be 8.
Baby will be 5.
I will be almost 31.
Seth will be 35.
We will more than likely have a different house.
Hopefully have about 5 kids or so.
Seth's business will be running successfully, and he will come home at 5pm :)
Sealed in the Temple!
AND we will hopefully still be Happy and Healthy!
Happy Anniversary to us! We've made it this far!
So, Seth and I celebrated our 5Th Anniversary on the 5Th, and we have no pictures from the weekend, but we had such a good time.
We rented my parents time share in Bear Lake, and stayed the whole weekend. On the way up, he left roses for me on the seat, with a really sweet card. The card itself said...
"Every time you look in the mirror, you see my favorite person"
Simple, and sweet. I'll save you from the details on all the mushy stuff in the card, but it was really sweet.
We went out in Logan on Friday AND Saturday night. Our waitress on Saturday asked us why the heck we would go to Logan, but we were really just enjoying being with each other, and it didn't matter where it was.
We ate at the Bluebird and tried lots of home made chocolates. (Jess and Em, that is where we went for lunch on our girls weekend) The Mint Chocolates were soooo good, Seth took me back on Saturday to get more.
We also went and saw "Valentine's Day" It wasn't that good in my opinion. I thought it was really long actually. I did cry at the end though. (The Julia Roberts part. I missed my kids a little.) On Saturday night we made dinner together, and went to the pool. I looked hot let me tell you! Actually, I didn't try on my swimsuit before we left, so I didn't know exactly how it would fit. Lets just say all you could see was boobs. I actually felt really uncomfortable in it, and we didn't stay long, also Seth hates public hot tubs. (Me too actually. Do you know how many dead skin cells float around in all those bubbles? Nasty!)
Anyway, we spent the weekend relaxing, sleeping in, and enjoying our time together before we have 3 kids. It was perfect. (Even though I was extremely car sick coming home. The rode from Bear Lake to Logan has so many turns!)
I can't believe Seth and I have been together for 7 years. It's crazy how fast time has gone by.
Our story is far from perfect, and at some points in the very beginning, and throughout, I didn't know what I wanted exactly. I was so young. My expectations of marriage were TOTALLY different, and I was selfish.
I was a brat actually. Kind of. In some ways I was, but really, we were both learning how to be a husband, wife, and parents.
I refused to be that Mormon girl that got married because she got pregnant, and wanted to know that it was right. Seth was ready for marriage because he was a little older, but I was only 19. After getting married, I thought. Why is this so hard? Marriage is supposed to be all happy, fun, and easy. And not only that, we had a nine month old baby to add into Seth starting his new business, and being broke.
It was hard to say the least.
I have never been happier with our life now. It is everything I could have asked for.
Now I know that marriage is far from easy. It is really hard sometimes. But it also is one of the most wonderful things ever! When you get through the tough times, you feel so strong, and your marriage is strong too.
I have a wonderful husband who would do anything for me, and our little family. He has given me a beautiful life, and beautiful children. He works hard, and loves us so much. He is such a caring, loving, fun, and outgoing person, and treats me and others with respect.
Although he doesn't go to church, it doesn't matter right now. You would never know different. He has great morals and values, and wants everything I want for our children.
He is my Best friend, and he really treats me so good.
I've never felt more beautiful to HIM than I do at this point in our life, and I KNOW he loves me so much!
That's really important to me, and any wife really.
In 5 MORE years from now.............
We will have been married for 10 years!
Mykelle will be almost 11.
Trey will be 8.
Baby will be 5.
I will be almost 31.
Seth will be 35.
We will more than likely have a different house.
Hopefully have about 5 kids or so.
Seth's business will be running successfully, and he will come home at 5pm :)
Sealed in the Temple!
I will either be a SAHM, or a personal trainer and hopefully still have a six pack!
I may have wrinkles. That is the only thing that scares me about getting older. I don't want to look old.
AND we will hopefully still be Happy and Healthy!
Happy Anniversary to us! We've made it this far!

Vitamin "L"
They are so precious. 
We read almost the whole thing for FHE on Monday, and my kids loved the "Vitamin L" story.
Who read the friend this month?
We read almost the whole thing for FHE on Monday, and my kids loved the "Vitamin L" story.To make a short story shorter, Vitamin L is for Love. Loving others.
We made this Vitamin "L" jar this week, and my kids think it is pretty much the coolest thing ever!
Appointment 7
Today. 34 weeks
Kel struggled getting todays shot, but hey, she tried.
33 weeks and some days. (The day I posted on facebook that thought I was going to die from cleaning so much) Notice all my new bedding. I lifted our King Size mattress to put on the bed skirt. (With the help from my seriously ripped daughter) Right after that, I was curled up on the floor. Won't be doing that again.
I was 33 weeks here too, Seth took this picture on our anniversary last week.
Todays appointment went well. It was like De ja vue. Everything that happened at my last appointment happened again. I wasn't as cheerful this time though, because I waited for almost an hour. He even said the exact same thing as last week. (About my skin and garments again. He even made the same joke about one piece garments.) Which means he forgot me. I hate being forgotten. But, he is such a sweet old guy, that it was ok.
I measured only 32 weeks, and gained 4 ounces. Sweet. (About the gaining weight part) He couldn't tell if the baby was head down, and said I have so much amniotic fluid. (Or so it seemed.)
He also said my doctor would be back on the 19th of April, so I might have to wait to be induced if I wanted until she comes back. Which is fine if I am measuring small now. What the heck! Although, it is very similiar to how it was with Trey, so we will see.
Still can't sleep at night. My sides get so sore from all the weight of the belly.
Baby is up at night so much though! Kickboxing my bladder and other insides. I feel like he/she wants to break out! Seth loves feeling all the movement at this point.
We are so excited to meet this baby, but I feel like 6 weeks is totally bareable. I am really going to enjoy the next month and a half with Trey and Mykelle.

It's Friday!
So, I have SO much to post about, but I am on my way to the doctors. (Yes, that means a belly shot, and an update today) I also have a few AWESOME recipes, and the name of my other blog. (That won't be private)
I feel good about going private! Like I can be more "Rambunctious". Lol. My mother in law used to read my blog on occasion, and I would never want to offend her. She is such a sweet person, and very naive. For anyone that knows her, she is honestly the most loving, caring, innocent person, and I respect her and her opinion, and wouldn't want to offend her. Not that she wouldn't be offended by some of the stuff I put on my blog, but it was always in the back of my head.
Anyway, check back soon for my new blog, and a whole bunch of other random posts! Have a great Friday!

Going Private(er)
After much consideration, and talking with Seth, we are (Once again) going to make our blog private (er) By this, I mean, my personal life, kid stuff, and stuff about OUR life will all become private.
Okay, so this may be my whole blog. BUT, I will start a new blog that has not so personal stuff like recipes, POLLS, great deals, and random stuff.
I'm going private by Friday, so if you want to be added, I need your email. I lost all contacts for email when we started having problems with our internet so, sorry, I need them again.
If you are a blog stalker, and want to be added, I'll add you as long as I have a link to your blog. I stock a few blogs, so I understand, but I have to know who you are. Plain and simple.
Sorry for all you blog stockers that aren't willing to admit who you are. You are being LOCKED OUT.
Tah, Tah for now.
OH and P.S. I will tell you the name of my new blog once I go private. It's pretty much amazing.

Thursday Confessional
*Update- I changed my commenting permissions a little bit, so I'll see how this goes, but if I'm still feeling uneasy, I am going to go private in the next few weeks. We'll see. I'm getting so many hits on my blog each day, which is great, but makes me uneasy all in the same. These people are coming from all over the place, and don't leave comments which makes it worse for me. I feel like I am "being watched"
I can't decide if I like having my blog public or not. I have been getting lots of Anonymous comments, and lots of Spam.
Don't get me wrong, I love "meeting" my anonymous readers, but I like to know who they are too. I look at lots of people's blogs I don't know, but I can't decide what to do.
I may go private, but it's such a pain!
