My Awesome Husband

Sometimes I take Todd for granted and how great he is to me. But in the past few weeks since I've been sick and I can't do as much cooking and other things as I used to, I've really seen how lucky I am that we found each other. Even though I get frustrated with him sometimes because he doesn't think exactly like I do, I really am grateful for all he does for me. He cleans the house the majority of the time, he brings me things when I feel like I can't move, and he even cooks now. When before he always told me he didn't know how. He has taken on quite a few different cooking experiences. I guess all in all I really just want to say how much I love him and how much I've appreciated his attitude during this pregnancy. I'm so blessed to have him in my life.

A Short Visit

Well my dad came for the weekend. He was at a conference in Las Vegas and decided to make a detour on the way home. McKenna, just like all the other grandchildren, has Papa wrapped around her finger and he is totally enthralled by her. She is getting so big and gets closer and closer to crawling every day. She fell asleep in that position by the way. After we got her up and put her in a bed my dad looked like he had ran a marathon. Kenna sweats really bad when she sleeps so my dad looked like he needed a little deodarant.

News

Well I'm pregnant. I announced it today in Relief Society because I thought I could only hide it for a little longer. At least this way it was a surprise to everyone. I usually don't wear tight shirts and this is why. I was talking to Mandy a few weeks ago (before anyone knew I was pregnant) and I was telling her how unfair it was that she was like 6 months pregnant and still not very big. I told her then that it wasn't going to be like that for me. Knowing my family history and also my own body shape, I knew that I would start showing long before she had. I mean being this short, where else would the baby have any room to grow but out. I do have solace in the fact that I haven't gained very much weight though. Hopefully all of the weight that I do gain will be concentrated in a very small area and it will be easy enough to lose. Even if it is not, Todd and I are very excited for the outcome of the weight gain. The due date as of now is May 21, 2008. We'll see when the baby really comes. Everyone I teach with compliments me on the perfectness of our timing. I get out of school on the 23rd so I won't really have to miss too much school. We also get to hear the heartbeat on Tuesday. We've been looking forward to this and feel like it will make it seem even more real to the both of us.
