pop POP

Well the last few weeks of our little pregnancy lala life has been really quite exciting. My ittty bitty baby started showing itself in the form of my chubby belly, and I don't think anything has ever made me more pleased. So I thought I'd post an extra large picture of myself on my blog because I'm very proud of my big bellaaay. This is actually me TODAY.....almost like an action shot. That should make up for the last few months of my hideous blogging history, riiiiight? 

So I am 17 weeks tomorrow and another fantastic thing that happened was getting over the whole "I'm constantly nauseous and miserable" ordeal. It's gone and I think it's staying away for goodsies. It has been a few weeks without and I feel like catwoman or spiderman or something... pretty sure I can conquer the world. Also, I think even I would make a better catwoman than Anne Hathaway. WTH?

Anne Hathaway as cat woman: bad news.  Life outside closing my eyes and whimpering in my recliner: good news. 

Aaaand although the pregnancy emotions are here to stay, they were pretty much here the whole time so Al should be used to them by now. I just try to avoid conversations with other couples about how often their wife's cry...cause he really doesn't need to hear that sort of thing. 

And one more special surprise for you today....we have a new camera so you don't have to see just iPhone pics anymore! Hooray! For Christmas, we bought a digital SLR...Canon T2i????...if you really want to know ask Al because I was on the couch whimpering. I posted some of the new pics on Facebook and got 0  response from them, so you're only getting a few cause my feelings are hurt...and I'm a pregnant emotional wreck that doesn't handle rejection well.

So I welcome you to the new camera....for a new and improved BLOG....maybe....well, same blog, you'll just be able to see the zits on my face better now.
 Christmas Day, Al put a shirt on a blown up cardboard cutout of Benson and scared the heebidy jeebidties out of his mom.

Me in the greatest outfit I've ever received on Christmas morning opening my new Wok. It is wrapped in a towel. And this picture gets put on here mainly because I'd like you to check out the the residue on my leg. Toothpaste from the day before's shower. Yes, I brush my teeth in the shower. It also made me barf a few times in the shower. But that's not barf, it's toothpaste.  

I think this picture looks like it should be in a magazine. Probably The Ensign.  Bishop Wilde and his first and second favorite grandbaby, Levi. We got to meet Levi over the holidays and I must say I just loved that little fella. What a chubby darling little thing...I LOVE BABIES. 

 Probably the best part of my Christmas holidays. This girl is hilarious. And this picture of her in her princess dress covered in jewelery is just so typical Chlobutt. Her lips aren't getting any smaller, if you didn't notice. And she thought it was really cute to touch my belly to poke "her baby cousin" so that was just kind of adorable.
 No, I never shower and my hair is always in a really ugly bun. Over the holidays, Al didn't shower much either. Luckily we have a camera that can capture it all in it's beauty.
 I did shower for Al's birthday. And made him a cake. It is the first cake I've made him...yup, just stick with me and maybe four years later I'll do something nice for you.
 Effortless artistry (by me).
Well, FOR CUTE! so handsome he is!
