Happy Independence Day!

Happy Independence Day! L and I had a pretty fun 4th of July this year, one of the main reasons is because we got to spend it together! I fly into Grand Rapids Michigan Sunday night, and am spending about a week and a half here with L.  It has been so nice to be able to spend time together.  L is still working while i'm here though, he is doing so awesome he has over 100 sales so far this year! He is doing so amazing! So some of the other wives were nice enough to invite me along to go see a parade in a cute little town close to our hotel. 

 They had awesome bag pipe players!

 They also were wearing awesome kilts!

 They had a lot of awesome cars in the parade.  Like this one that was so small and it only had one door which was in the very front of the car, it was awesome!

 They also had a lot of politicians walk through the parade too, which was different. 

 They also had the local high school crew team in the parade.  

 It was weird though because they didn't really have any floats, they just had a bunch of cars and stuff. But it was still really fun to see, and they through out a ton of candy while walking down.  It is different than the Bountiful parade.  We got there 30 min before the parade started and was still able to get a great seat.  I guess parades aren't as popular here as in Utah. After that we went back to the hotel for a little while and then the guys came home early and we headed downtown to Grand Rapids, to watch the firework show.  It was pretty cool because there is a river that runs through Grand Rapids, and they shoot the fireworks off of one bridge and then let you sit on the other bridges to watch.  We sat down at about 8:30p.m.- 9:00 p.m. to save a seat for the firework show, and let me tell you I have never seen so many people try to jam on the a bridge before it was nuts.  

 Here is handsom L waiting for the fireworks to start! 

 We dared one of the other Salesmen to see how much cottoncandy he can fit into his mouth at one time. Lol it was pretty funny to watch. 

The firework show was pretty awesome! One of the best shows that I've ever seen! It was pretty awesome.   Yesterday I had a pretty eventful day compared to the fireworks and parade lol.  I got to do laundry at coin operated machines it was super fun.  I have never had to do that before.  

Look at how awesome they are! It was so much fun let me tell you!

32 weeks

So I get larger and larger by the second I feel, but I am getting close to meeting this little guy.  I only have 2 months left! I am super excited! I finally bought a bassinet last weekend and put it together all by myself I am pretty proud lol! Here are some pictures of it.  I had to add a football blanket of course for L, and his love of football.

I also found the cutest Giraffe ever that I had to buy the moment I saw it.  I have this weird obsession with Giraffes and Zebras they are awesome and If it were up to me I would do a safari themed nursery but L loves sports so we are making a combined nursery with both. 

So I also bought some sports themed stuff, I still need some more stuff with the sports themed though.

 I'm having the hardest time picking out stuff I need though. Like a car seat, stroller, crib, changing table, and whatever else I need which I have no idea yet that I need. 

L spoiled me this past week as well he surprised me with some gorgeous flowers! It was such a thoughtful thing to do, I love the flowers they are orange my favorite color!

I suppose I should add another belly photo as well. I don't like these belly photos though cuz I always look so bad, but here is one of me at almost 32 weeks!

Baby Gray weighs 2.6 Pounds!

So I have been doing this new mom study through IMC, and it has been cool becuase I get three extra ultrasounds that I normally would not have gotten.  My last and final visit was on Thursday and it was cool to see how much baby gray has grown.  They said by his measurements that he weight appoximately 2.6 pounds, and that he was growing right on track. They tried doing a couple 3D ultrasounds which turned out okay, but baby gray was being stubborn like his dad and didn't want to give us a good shot.  Here are a few of the pictures they sent me home with.

Other than that I've just been trying to get back into the regular schedule of things.  It has been super hard this week because all last week I was with L, and it is hard to go back to being apart.  Especially because he has been stressed this week, so it is hard to be away from each other.  Its also hard to think that we are spending are last few precious months of just being us two away from each other.  On a positive it has been nice to be home with cute K again.  Its amazing how much you can miss a little dog!!

DisneyWorld Vacation

We went on a trip to Florida this past week, to pick up H, my sister and to visit Disney World and Orlando Studios.  It was a lot of fun, it defiantly was not a relaxing vacation, we were almost constantly on the go, and its not as fun to go to an amusement park when you are pregnant and can't ride any of the fun rides. Here are a few pictures from the trip, I look awful in most of them, so I tried to be in as few as possible.

This was Harry Potter Land, the remade kind of a mix between Hogsmead and Diagon Alley. It was pretty awesome!

The amazing castle! It was huge!

 The Tree of life at Disney Worlds Animal Kingdom park.

 Another few of the castle.

 L, D, and K getting ready to ride the Tower of Terror Ride. This was L's first time at the Disney World so I was excited for him to get to ride all the rides, I just wish I could have riden some of the rides with him.

 The Fam on the Dinosaur ride at Disney World's Animal Kingdom Park.

 I did get to ride on the safari ride which was fun, and we got to see baby elephants which where so cute.

 Dinner in France at Epcot.

                                              L was so tired he fell asleep on its a small world. 

 Splash Mountain I love L in this picture he looks so scared.

 The chef at the restaurant we ate at in France.

 The Fam waiting in line for a fun ride I couldn't go on lol.

 Waiting in line for something at Epcot.

 The Giraffes on the safari ride. They walked right by the car it was awesome.

 The Fam on the Tower Terror.

It was a super fun vacation. But the best part was just spending time with L, because we hadn't seen each other sense April 1st.  It had been way too long to be away from each other.  Unfortunately, I won't see him for another few weeks, but luckily it won't be as long as the first time we were apart.  Hopefully with the start of summer coming and the time winding down for when Baby Gray will get here time will go bye a little quicker. I feel way far behind I haven't even started buying anything that we will need for little Baby Gray, and I am just about to start the third and final trimester.
