past few weeks update!

Its been a while since I last posted, so I thought I would give everyone a little update!

 

Since last time, Zach is officially HOME!

He actually surprised me and ended up coming home a day early! Literally scared the living daylights out of me! (and got it on video.... I would share the video, but lets just say I was looking my best!)

He came home with a co-worker and got to show him so good ol' Idaho fishing! (of course thats what he does the first thing he gets home! )

 

We then got to spend a few days together just hanging out, rearranging the apartment, and getting things back to normal.

{hanging out at the mall... buy three get one free....Zachs idea of a snack}

 

Then headed down to Utah for one of his mission companions weddings where Zach got to be a cute little groomsman at the reception! It was a fun time going down to Utah, but boy oh boy did it wear me out! Im not used to the traveling, or the all day festivities! It was a trip and a half to say the least. (forgetting our church clothes, and then having to try to find something to fit this pregnant body didnt help the situation either!!!!)

We also got to spend some time with both sides of Zachs family thats down there, which is always great! Oh and of course, ate at In N Out! So Yummy! I think I could eat those french fries every single day! Makes my mouth water just thinking about those and a chocolate shake! yummmmm

We also got to go to a Babies R Us, which we dont have here and get some things for Pink Baby! She now finally has somewhere to sleep and a cover for her carseat to keep her all nice and toasty! Thank you coupons!

 

When we came back from our weekend get a way Zach had the monday off, but then headed back to work at the safety office at BYU-I.( Hes a very hard working guy, and I am so grateful for his dedication and working so hard for our little fam! ) So Monday we took a little trip out to Swan Valley so Zach could do a little fishing. It wasnt that great of fishing, so it was a little disappointing of a trip, and probably a little difficult with a pregnant sleepy wife that doesnt like to squat in the bushes... So the trip didnt really last all that long (I felt bad)

 

This past Thursday we picked up our next set of visitors at the airport for their week trip! Zachs dad and little brother Jesse came from Iowa to do their fishing trip before school starts back again for the boys. They did it last year and had a blast, so they had to have a repeat trip before Zach and I move out of fishing paradise. So they are up in Yellowstone fishing away and probably in 7th Heaven!

I get to stay home and finally relax because the weather here in Idaho is finally cooling off... Im wearing long sleeves if that tells you anything!!!! Its wonderful!

 

As for baby stats...

-I will be 34 weeks pregnant on thursday ( 8.5 months pregnant)

-Her head is down which creates so problems with my hips, and makes things a tad bit painful.. but good because thats where she is suppose to be!

-At my 31 week ultrasound (checking for  placenta previa) they estimated her weight to be around 4 lbs. which averaged out will make her 7.5-8 lb. baby.  (but lets me honest here, how accurate are those things anyway! haha)

- Her heartbeat is usually around 150 bpm

- she moves around all the time and makes it hard to sleep! (Just like Zach)

- Overall we are both doing well, and just trucking along for 6 more weeks!

 

The closer I get the more anxious and excited I get! Im so excited to see what she looks like, and what features she gets from which side of the family... will she have light hair... will she have dark hair like she does in my dreams?  Will she be a huge baby like my family has, will she be long? Im just so excited!

and I just cant wait to hold her!!!
