A Frontierville-less life...

I just deleted my Frontierville on Facebook. It was consuming me. I justified all the hours I spent on it daily by telling myself (and a few others) that it was a great escape for me....just a stress reducing activity. But I've avoided so many projects that I want to get done, that are within reach of getting accomplished, but had to take care of my Frontier first....for 4 - 5 hours a day...not all at once, but accumulative. Doesn't matter. I could have spent a small part of that time reading to Zoe. Or finishing her room. Or reading my scriptures. Or or or or......

So today I stopped. I didn't even go there. And yes. I did finally get the family room organized. 1 day frontiervilleless. 1 accomplishment down. I like that ratio.

Holy Moly! What happened to me?

My class took Mike with us on our field trip---we usually do, actually. And though my kids my not have appreciated the experience of fishing, they loved the wind and being outdoors.
Anyways, my team leader wanted to take a picture of Mike and I and here I am for once thinking I look cute and rather stylish in my pregnancy clothes.......YIKES!!!!
Pic 1- Oscar, Brittany, & Bobby loved holding the poles. Oscar actually got a couple bites.
Pic 2- Me & Steven just a walkin'.
Pic 3- My Trent trying his hardest to ignore me. Doesn't work very well. :)

Bathing suits just don't fit me like the used to...... :)
Holly took this of me on our Cache Valley Geneology trip. Wonderful fun, especially with Dustin along. ----I have less than 2 months left! Yay!

The bravest woman on Earth!

I took NateNate to church with me for the first time a week ago. Look at him in his little suit! Darling!

He moved and he grooved and he screeched and he grunted, but we lasted all through sacrament meeting. I was pleased. The secret? A few candies, a few snuggles, and a few squiggly toys. Oh! And the patience of Job. :)

A big belly and a courageous (or foolish) heart! :)

More energy than fireworks...

Nate's mom had her baby on July 1rst. So Mike and I have had the little scoundrel for the past 5 days. He has been sooooooo gooooood!!! That is until yesterday when his manic side began to show it's hyperactive and high pitched colors. There was no slowing him down.

Here is our little NateNate trying to sneak off the porch....which he NEVER does anymore unless he is manic. Our little naughtybody is indomitable!

Tiramisu

Marie came to visit for the first time in 2 years. I think during that entire time one of our staple pieces of conversation revolved around Tiramisu. Ah, what would our friendship be without that delectable custardy creamy heaven.

So, we made all these plans revolving around our tiramisu, but when the end of our visit came, we were so full we couldn't eat AND Marie even forgot to take her portion home. Guess our friendship had something else to hang on.....pasta. :)

Here we are.

There's somethin' in there!

My belly has been getting bigger for a while now--and I'm pretty sure I haven't been able to eat all that I truly want. For Heaven's Sake, I can't even eat my favorite ice cream!!! :)
I'm hoping this is proof that there is somethin' in my belly! :) And SHE is one healthy gal!

This was taken when I was about 18 week along or so. I am now 22 weeks-in my 5th month. Still moving and grooving. :)
