Photos from my phone
since my phone photos are usually the ones taken cause elle is being silly/cute/little stinker! I should upload some of those too :)
I realize that I hadn't done Elle's hair in pigtails for a very long time. This particular time when I was finish I let her look in the mirror "Ellie, piggy tail" said with a giggle. She was proud of her pig tails :)
While making ginger bread houses out of graham crackers with cousin Autumn, Elle thought it would be more fun to just eat it instead of decorate :)
Elle loves band aids of any kind, and loves getting into her daddy's night stand. This time she found daddy's noes breaths. "my noes"
Can't hide chocolate from me mommy!
We've trained her well! She love lotion! LOVES IT! "I want otion" So what better way to teach her how to use it but to rub mommy and daddy's feet :)
This was taken with Aunt Ashley's phone(I think) but it is to dang cute to pass up on posting. Check out those pretty blue eyes!
Her favorite thing is to go to the fridge, know the exact drawer to open, pull it out and grab either, yogurt, cheese, or pudding. This time was pudding. One moment she was eating just fine and the next she was rubbing it on her hand and then her face. "I painting" "cheese"
Helping mom with laundry she got undress and put her daddy's shirt on "I dancing!"

Cousin Autumn and Ry have a cat named Cheeto, looks nearly the same as this stuff cat. "This my cheeto!" Which by the way, now all cats are called Cheeto, just like every baby is called baby Jude(her cousin name)
It's not Christmas with out making a gingerbread house!
Looking cool while eating!
Playing with cousin "that Autumn"
Taking care of her baby. She wrapped it up and then sat on her chair "baby go to sleep"
Fun in the snow

Biggest Loser
Love the show! I have been wanting to do one of my own with friends, but pregnancy has put a hold on it. Couple weeks ago a friend brought it up and handful of other friends want to so I am joining them, even though I have a growing baby in me and don't have much of a chance to win, I still want to.
So here it is, there is 22 of us. $25 to participate. Feb 1- May 1. 1 Monthly winner($110) for 3 months and then one final winner ($220) for overall. Percentage loss is want counts. I chose to participate with the knowledge of knowing I could come in dead last, and lose my $25, but I know the pure joy of losing weight, the reward that comes from it and the motivation of others, and also it is my hostess cupcake fund, so no more hostess cupcakes :) But hey, I do plan on maintaing my weight, and maybe, maybe, lose a lb or two. Here's to hoping. I am up 26 lbs this pregnancy so I rather not gain any more, lol :)
I ate awesome the pass two days, if I can keep it up, not only will I maintain my weight, but Beth will be better nourished then Elle ever was, lol!
I'll keep you posted on how I do and where I rank, in the mean time here is Feb photo and weigh in. hee hee, I"ll be growing instead of shrinking :)
And here's a little reminder, I do know how to eat healthy and lose weight, I just need to do it and not use pregnancy as an excuse!

It's been awhile!
wow does time fly!!! Can't believe it's been 9 months since I last posted. I got into a bloggers block. Still kinda there. I know I need to update more, so I will try. But to much in 9 months to catch up on so I'll just post some bullet points, some photos, and call it good. I'll try to be better at updating :)
Since Scott graduated and we moved back :)
*I am primary secretary and LOVE my calling!
*Elle turned two in August. She is a very happy toddler, mostly good, put boy is she curious so she gets into everything!!!
*I turned 28 in August, it's fun sharing a birthday with Elle
*We went to Vegas for my birthday that was fun! Now to plan another Vegas trip! I miss my friends, my Vegas family, my ward, my own place...but, I DO NOT MISS LIVING IN VEGAS :)
*For my birthday I found out our family will be growing come May :) It's another girl, Bethany Rose :)
*Took our annual October trip to Texas and enjoyed our self, except for one thing! There was some kind of big football game so we got stuck at the Houston airport, with Scott on pain meds from his moving kidney stone so I had to drive the 4 hours to Dallas, not fun when you are in your first trimester sick. But in the end, we enjoyed our trip :)
*Scott had surgery on his size 9 kidney stone :/ hopefully he doesn't have to many more the rest of his life, it seems to run in the family :/
*Scott passed the bar, was sworn in, and has had his turn in court AS THE ATTORNEY :) He is a great attorney! Not bias or anything :)
*Elle enjoyed dressing up for Halloween and getting treats, but boy does she scare easy by masks and crazy Halloween make up.
*We enjoyed a family trip with the in laws to Cancun. Elle was scared of the ocean, but loved the pool, more the hot tub then anything. She is a little fish!!!
*We finally had thanksgiving in Utah again after a few years :) It was fun, I have a nice size family so it is always fun to get together :)
*Scott turned 28 in Dec. I got to surprise him with two nights at a hotel. It was nice to wake up when we wanted to and not to a 2 year old climbing into our bed, "I awake!"
*Elle loved Christmas! We had a great time at my moms Christmas Eve, don't think I took pictures, oops. She loved Christmas morning, she wass into opening the gift more then what the gift was. She got a bounce house type thing, just something small, but she loves it!!! Scott spent an hour and half pumping it up cause I wanted it blown up for Christmas morning and I forgot to buy an electric pump so we had to use a bike pump, he is a good daddy! And husband cause he refused to let me blow it up even though I offered.
*We celebrate 4 years of Marriage on Dec 29th :) I have a great husband!
* gave the blog a face lift so maybe that will give the encouragement to keep up with it :)
And that brings us to today :) Daddy(Scott) works like crazy and is doing his best to earn enough so we can get a place of our own and allow me to continue to be a stay at home mom :) Which both Elle and I love!!! She is my best friend! I love being her 24/7 buddie! Crazy thing is, sometimes, I don't crave food late at night, I crave the closeness of my daughter and let her sleep with us until I have to get up and pee for the millionth time!
We enjoy going to the gym daily, I get to exercise with out wondering what Elle is getting into, and she gets to play at the daycare and meet new friends daily and have social interaction :)
Pregnancy is going great! Beth is doing well! Growing right on schedule! Moves plenty!!! Sometimes it feels like she is dancing in there, making it feel like she's having a party with a few friends. Luckily we are certain it is just her and no others :) *wrote this the other day, but did not post. Had doc visit today, still doing well, heart beat 150 and I am now measuring a week ahead :)
Maternity coverage would be a nice thing to have and cover a lot of financial stress, but the plus side of not having it, I get to choose my doctor and hospital :) I am grateful to say that Doctor Smith, who delivered Elle, has taken me on as a patient and his happy to do a VBAC! that thrills me cause I was hearing how hard it is to find a doctor who is willing to do that. I will be delivery at Alta View again, same place I had Elle for those that want to visit once I have her.
Talked with my doctor today about birth plan. I was wanting to go natural but wasn't sure of my doctors thoughts on it. I felt very much at peace choosing him and I trust his judgment very much. For some, they would just choose a different doctor if they go against their wishes, but for me, I went into today's visit with my mind at peace that I will accept what ever he has to say. He is more then happy to do a VBAC(vaginal birth after c-section) but not natural. If anything happened to me or baby on his watch he couldn't live with that! So, he wants me monitored with epidural, not what I wanted, but at peace with it. I know that this peace come from the lord and I need to follow all and every promptings to keep me close to the spirit and to protect both mine and Beth's life. But on the plus side, he is more then happy to hand her right over to me and wait to clamp and cut the cord until it stops pulsing, which is my only wish that I put my foot down on! :)
Time for Photos :) I got a new camera for Christmas!! It takes MUCH MUCH BETTER photos I'm exited about that :)
