Nursery Sneak Peak

We put the bedding in the crib today... it looks so cute! I realize this may be a little early, but it makes the room happier and makes me feel less anxious that we are still working on the other aspects of the nursery. 

PS- How cute is the rocker? I am obsessed. It is darling and SO comfortable!

**There are monkey's on the inner part of the bumper that match the rug, but I can't unveil that side until I finish a few other finishing touches**

007


I am so excited for Grey's to start again this week... I have been recording the old seasons on Lifetime just for fun and today was the first episode of Season 1. I now get the 007-George thing! In case you all forgot, let me remind you. In the first episode George was chosen by Burke to do the first solo surgery--the appendectomy. If you remember, George totally freezes during the surgery, almost killing the patient. Then all the interns start calling him 007, or "License to Kill". I had TOTALLY forgot this minor detail, so in the season finale I didn't understand the whole 007 thing. Not that it mattered because I was/am such a hormonal wreck these days I was SOBBING throughout the whole episode and could barely hear anything anyway. So....in case you were clueless, now you know and can be more prepared for this weeks much awaited season premiere.

In other news I bought this DVD on amazon for a little workout. Since I didn't workout pre-pregnancy and I was panting from just walking up the stairs I decided I needed to start doing something.

I LOVE this workout. It is the perfect amount of time (35 minutes) plus she is hilarious during the whole workout. Halfway through the workout it pauses and says "POTTY BREAK" so you can go to the bathroom. Everything is doable and it gets my heart-rate going a little faster so I feel like I am getting a workout. I wish I had been doing this all along because I feel SO much better afterward.

Fishlake 2009

We just got home from Fishlake. It was very relaxing (for me at least... I'm pregnant, so I can't really do much to help) and very cold. It was a welcome change from the Las Vegas heat. I got to wear my Uggs all weekend which was a welcome relief to my sore feet. On Saturday we had a picnic at UM Creek and Andy fished.... unfortunately they have new regulations at the creek and all fishing is catch and release, so we didn't get any fish for dinner, but we did get some fun pictures.
Andy getting the picnic ready....


I love this picture- Andy getting his fishing pole ready

I thought the reflection of the trees on the creek was pretty



When we got back to the cabin this deer was in our front yard. It let me get close to take a picture before it ran off. We guessed he was born this past spring because he was so tiny.

As we were driving out we decided to take a picture with the Fishlake sign.... 

The cabin is now closed for the 2009 season. Who is up for 2010??

Lack of posting...

I once again apologize for the lack of posting. This man is partly to blame....

and all his friends and frenamies...
I know I am 5 years behind the trend, but better late then never, right? We just finished Season 1 and I'm not too sure how much I like the hatch. Or Locke. (He kind of is getting on my nerves... Arzt was getting on my nerves to, and then he was blown to pieces.... is Locke next?)

Posts to look forward to: Our new office, nursery updates, and third trimester! Wahoo!

Also... I now have a love for Peanut Butter. I love Peanut Butter Cup Golden Spoon (with peanut butter chips on top), Peanut Butter Captain Crunch, Reese's Pieces, PayDays... pretty much put peanut butter on anything and I will eat it these days. Who needs Pickles and Ice Cream when you can have peanut butter and oreos?

We interrupt this marriage....

My parents have a plaque in their office that reads, "We interrupt this marriage for the basketball season"

I need a plaque that says, "We interrupt this marriage for the Michigan football season"

Yes it has begun. 

Anyone want to have lunch next Saturday, and every Saturday until December? Because I am open!!

Finally.... it has arrived!


While we were in the Dominican I read The Hunger Games. I could not put it down and couldn't wait to see how it ended. I got to the end and it said "...to be continued in Book 2" WHAT!?!?! I was SO mad. I couldn't possibly wait until we got home to pick up the next book. It got worse, it wasn't even out yet! Well ladies and gentleman, today was the day! My sister had pre-ordered it on Amazon for my birthday and it arrived this morning. I have been waiting all day to read it and I am so excited!

Thanks Ash!

Shava

The best part about living in Las Vegas is that it is in between California and Provo... so people are always stopping by. This morning two of my favorites needed a little time to run around before making the stretch back to SJC.... Andy and I like to call them "Shava" (Shea-Ava)

Both girls liked climbing the stairs. Ava informed me she would liked to be called "Pearl" from now on... I thought it was very lady-like. So here is Pearl and Shea on the stairs.
Baby Shea LOVED chocolate milk (the horse)
Even though we only got to see the Larsen family for a few hours, it was still great to catch up and get some loves! Can't wait for our next trip to CA so we can see the girlies again!
