28-29 weeks :)

28 weeks:

This week of pregnancy brought some not so welcomed symptoms....

I found my first stretch marks :(

I was super depressed about it but when I showed Eric he assured me that "I was being a huge cry baby and that he didn't even know if he would consider them stretch marks."

It made me feel better.... oh wait, no it didn't!! (that little punk!)

Anyways, he was still a pretty good sport to take me to walmart and let me buy some body oil to lather on every morning and night and hopefully make my 3 little new friends my only friends!

Other than that, this week was pretty easy going!

Eric and I bought Just Dance 3 for our Kinect for only $20 and I am soo pumped! It is such a good workout and you do it indoors so I plan on using it as a super good exercise incentive after Asher gets here and the weather gets too cold to run outside! :)

Even more exciting news that happened during my 28th week of pregnancy... WE GOT AN APARTMENT!!!!! (finally!)

It is such a blessing too because it is a low income apartment that we applied for in May but thought we had no chance of getting one in time because they told us the waiting list was at least 6-12 months long!

It is seriously like 1/3 of the price we could find anywhere else and it is all based off of how much money we make so we should never have to worry about being able to pay rent with Eric's income!

This is great for so many different reasons!

One being that because of this, all of the money we have worked so hard to save this summer will get to remain in our savings for important things.

Another being that this should mean that as long as I am a full time student I won't have to get a job and will be able to stay home with our sweet baby boy and we will still have enough money to live off of!

This whole experience has been a huge testimony builder of tithing for me...

The neighborhood that our complex is in is so-so but the actual complex is kind of rough looking...

The insides are AMAZING though! They are built like town homes so we don't have to deal with neighbors complaining that we are too loud or living underneath someone that is loud themselves (and I can play Just Dance 3 as crazy as I want haha!) and the carpet and everything is pretty new!

They don't have an AC, dishwasher, garbage disposal, or washer and dryer but we have started hunting for some heavy duty portable AC's, don't mind doing the dishes by hand, and with all the money we are saving on rent we don't mind paying the $20-$30 a month to use a coin operated washer and dryer!

The lady that helped us sign our lease and everything says that it is one of the easiest going properties they have and that everyone keeps to themselves so we should have plenty of privacy!

We also asked about crime rates in the area and any problems with the law that happen often and she said that nothing has happened in years so we are willing to work through the downfalls! :)

The kitchen :) I am in love with the cubbords and drawers! They are brand new and soooo pretty!

The bathroom!

One of the bedrooms/closets!

29 weeks:

So this week is only half way over and it has still been pretty eventful! On the mark of my 29th week I had a doctors appointment so that is always exciting! :)

Eric got to come with me this time because he had the entire week of for the 24th of July. We didn't get very good ultrasounds because our little stink is breech at the moment and had his arms right in front of his face so our Doctor said it would be easier to wait until our next appointment (which is only a week and a half away since I have to go every 2 weeks now since I am in my 3rd trimester! crazy!) to try and get some good 3D pictures of his face now!

Asher is approximately 3 1/2-3 3/4 pounds right now and the estimated birth weight is now 7 3/4-8 pounds! (it goes up every appointment, which scares me... if this kid doesn't cut it out I'll be giving birth to a 15 pounder!)

There were no read flags and I also had to do my official sugar test and everything looked great!

Dr. Bierrer said my weight and blood pressure were perfect so to just keep doing what I'm doing (which honestly, I feel like all I do is eat and eat unhealthy food at that, but apparently it isn't too awful haha!)

In addition to the 24th of July and our doctors appointment we also got to go to Cherry Hills yesterday for our sweet little Addy's birthday, go to my Grandma Cheryl's for a family bbq and family pictures since Bret Lee is out to visit from Washington, and deal with a super flaky girl from KSL...

I can't resist sharing our story about our disrespectful KSL friend but I promise after this I'll stop haha!

SO.. since our apartment doesn't have an AC we have been looking on KSL to try and find a portable one for cheaper than buying one brand new. (they are about $500 in stores which is more than we want to spend!)

Well we found this girl who was selling her 2009 Amana portable AC for $150 which is a steal so I started texting her thursday morning and after getting all the information we needed we decided it was a great deal for what we would be getting and made plans to meet on Friday at 5:30 PM to pick it up!

She lived in Salt Lake so I had to leave work 30 minutes early to get there in time, which was a tiny bit of a pain but again, we felt like it was worth it!

So at 4:30 I sent her a text telling her that we were leaving Grantsville and that we should be there in 45 minutes. She replied back that she would be ready for us and to text her when we got closer so she could plug it in and get it running so we could see how it worked.

I texted her when we were about 5 minutes away from her apartment telling her where we were and that we would see her soon...

She again replied saying that she had just plugged it in and to text her as soon as we got there and she would meet us outside so we didn't have to search through her apartment complex to find her.

2 minutes later I recieved a text from her that read: "Ughh.. I feel like the worst person ever. The people who are keeping it in their apartment just offered me $200 for it and I'm going to have to take it... I am so so sorry. :("

I couldn't even believe it! I understand that they offered her $50 more but she had made an agreement with us and knew that we had just drove 45 minutes to come give her the money.

I wanted to text her back and say "okay, well we are outside your apartment and are just waiting for you to bring us down the gas money we just wasted on you." but Eric told me to not reply...

I couldn't resist and did actually reply by saying "Wow. Thanks for the notice... We just drove 45 minutes to complete this "agreement." Nice doing business with you."

I was so upset! I couldn't believe that she would be that rude to us for $50 more dollars! She didn't even text us and ask if we were willing to go higher on the price or anything...

We figure it must have happened for a reason (and secretly hope that the dang thing dies on the meany heads that stole it from us!) haha!

Anyways... This post was supposed to be super short and has ended up turning into a novel so I suppose I'll call it good :)

23-27 Weeks!

Okay... so I can officially be called a slacker! :/

I knew that I had let myself get behind, but I didn't realize I was 5 weeks behind!!! Ahhh!

Let's see if I can sum up what I can remember of the past 5 weeks of my pregnancy!

23 Weeks:

This week was pretty easy going! :)

Since I felt Asher move for the first time he hasn't stopped wiggling! Eric had felt him several times by this week.

This week included my 20th birthday (which was pretty awesome :)) and just the usual stresses of trying to find an apartment in Ogden, figuring something out as far as jobs and income goes, and getting both of us registered for classes.

For my birthday we just kind of took it easy since it was a weekday and Eric and I both had work. My mom made me homemade lasagna which was delicious and I got lots of cute new clothes (including a super cute Victoria Secret Pink sweatsuit that I am going to wear home from the hospital when Asher is born!) A couple weeks earlier we ordered me a new cell phone off of ebay and since it was $70 we just counted that as my birthday present from Eric haha!

As far as success with finding an appartment and jobs.... nothing had happened by this point.

I did get myself registered for classes, however, so we are working our way there!

This is my belly at almost 23 weeks! It is starting to look a little more round but not nearly as much as I'd like!!

24 weeks:

This week was also pretty easy going!

We did start getting decorations for Asher's room made!  We have decided to stick with a sports themed bedroom, but rather than buying the bedding we are going to buy the fabrics we like and have my aunt make a set for us!

We found a few cute sports bedding sets but we either didn't like the colors or the pictures and details so we decided that if we make our own we can pick what colors we want exactly and just turn the room into a sports theme with decorations, blankets, and pillows.

We have decided to stick with a bright red, royal blue, brown, and tan color scheme! We thought that went well with sports and it was a good color scheme for a boy so if we want to use it for our next boy we can switch the theme and still have a cute room! :)

My belly was starting to get to the point where if I wore tight shirts you knew I was pregnant!

25 weeks:

This week I had a doctors appointment! :)

Eric felt like he shouldn't take off work because we had a trip planned to California this weekend so he wanted to get as many hours in as he could so my mom took me.

The appointment went really well! Dr. Bierrer told me that Asher is growing A LOT and that he was close to 2 pounds when most babies only weighed almost 1.5 pounds by 25 weeks!

He told us to expect at least a 7.5 pound baby (possibly closer to 8 pounds!) if things keep going the way they are! :)

This week we also went to San Diego so that Eric's sister could go through the temple with her fiance. We left on Friday morning and spent the whole day driving there. 

Saturday we went through the temple, out to dinner,

and to the Mormon Battalion Museum.

Sunday we went to this little beach area, Old Town San Diego, and just took it easy.

Monday we spent the day at Sea World.

Tuesday we headed home. It was a great trip and a lot of fun to get a break from work and the real world.

During the drive to California my feet got REALLY swollen!

This is what they normally look like! I had to drink a ton of water and walk around a bunch to get them to go down but they finally started looking a lot better! :)

26 Weeks:

This week was the 4th of July! :)

Since we had spent the past weekend with the Allred's we spent the whole day with my family and had a great time!

We started the day by going to the parade in Grantsville, then we went over to my Grandma Cheryl's and Grandpa Richard's house for hamburgers.

Later on we went to the park and walked around for a few hours and then we went up the canyon with my other Grandparents to escape the heat!

That night we came back and watched the fireworks at the Stake Center!

Other than having to fight the traffic all day, we had an awesome 4th of July :)

Once again, nothing super eventful happened as far as the pregnancy goes haha! I have an extremely boring pregnancy!

This week I did start to feel more and more rib kicks from my little stinker... I HATE THEM!! haha!

They don't hurt but they don't feel good either. He kicks and kicks all day and I usually love getting to feel him be his wiggly little self but when he kicks up in my ribs I just want to paddle his little butt haha!

Eric and I also saw my belly literally move cause he was kicking so hard this week.

I can't decide how I feel about this... It is kind of creepy but so cool at the same time haha!

My belly is finally starting to look cute if I pick good outfits! Everyone keeps telling me that I should be happy that my belly is so tiny still and that I will be so sick of having a huge tummy by the time Asher gets here but since I am the one that gets to deal with people not being able to decide if I am fat or pregnant I still think I would rather have a big popped belly haha!

27 Weeks:

This was my first week in my 3rd and final trimester... CRAZY!! I can't even believe that I have less than 3 months until my due date!

(this is at 27 1/2 weeks!)

I have really just been loving being pregnant and trying to enjoy the fact that I get to spend time with my baby without any screaming, pooping, peeing, and sleepless nights haha!

(well sort of with the sleepless nights... I have to wake up at least 3 times a night to go potty!)

(This is at almost 28 weeks :))

Other than that though, Eric and I are STILL trying to get everything figured out for when we move down to Ogden....

This stresses me out SOOO much!

We want to move in exactly 1 month from Friday so this week we need to make some major decisions!

We are both registered for a full load of classes and both have our grants and I have a small scholarship so we know that school is completely taken care of... Now just for the rest of life haha!

Other pregnancy news... My feet have decided to be bratty and get swollen every night if I don't drink at lest 3 million gallons of water a day! haha! I have been downing water like crazy which helps keep my feet small but I am up all night!

Anyways... I will be 28 weeks tomorrow but I am going to wait to post anything about being 28 weeks until I get to experience being 28 weeks haha!

We have a doctors appointment one week fromWednesday and can't wait until then! :)

20-22 weeks :)

So I did much better at keeping up on my posts when we were in Ephraim! Being home for the summer has made us busier than expected!

Anyways, I suppose I'll play catch up on the past 3 weeks in this post :)

20 weeks: 

Nothing crazy happened this week, and to be honest I am having a hard time of really coming up with any fun pregnancy news! :/

I could feel Asher moving pretty much every night this week but Eric still couldn't get him to cooperate!

The end of this week I started to feel a little bit of pain on the left side of my groin and up onto the side of my belly... 

Other than that we just kind of took it easy. Eric hadn't started work yet and I am only working 20 hour weeks so we got to spend lots of time together! :)

21 weeks:

This week Eric finally got to feel little Asher move! :) He only felt one kick but it was a pretty strong one and made us both pretty happy haha!

My belly started to pop out a little more (still not as much as I would like, but it is slowly getting there!)

This was the week of memorial day and we also had our doctors appointment with our new doctor AND the target appointment with an ultrasound technician! :)

It was so much fun! Our new doctor is soooo much better than our old one! We were still only with him for probably 15 minutes (10 minutes longer than our last doctor though haha!) but we learned so much! During the ultrasound he showed us the different parts of the brain and explained to us how they know that Asher is developing perfectly. He also showed us the heart and explained how the placement of his heart is right where it should be, meaning that over 95% of heart defects are nothing to worry about now! :) I couldn't believe how much better he was. 

The ultrasound tech was also super fun! She was so nice and spent about a half hour with us and was super patient (Asher was being a brat again and wouldn't let us get very good pictures... imagine that! haa!) and gave our naughty little boy no other choice but to cooperate. We got some awesome 3D pictures of his cute little face and some more proof that we are definitely having a boy (that always makes Eric super proud haha!) 

This is the proof of a boy!

what a handsome little guy right??

Other than that, my groin/stomach muscle had still been giving me some trouble but I forgot to ask the doctor about it! My mom thought it could be a round ligament but when we looked that up it says that round ligaments usually occur on the right side of your body and this pain is definitely on the left!

After looking through my "What to expect when you're expecting" book for a good 45 minutes I read a little thing about hip flexors and I am pretty positive that is what is hurting me. It is a really crampy sore muscle kind of pain and it hurts the worst when I bend over, go from sitting down to standing up, or lift my left leg to tie my shoe or anything like that. It also hurts when I walk so even though I don't have the cute belly I already have a pregnancy waddle :/ 

Belly bump at 21 weeks :)

I also finally reached the 10 lb weight gain mark! I have mixed emotions about this but since all the books say that for my height and weight before pregnancy I should have gained at least 13 lbs by now I figure I'm doing alright haha!

22 weeks: 

Well I am just in the first half of my 22nd week and so far nothing to complain about! 

My back and hip flexor are both being pains but nothing that I can't live with! 

Asher moves around ALL NIGHT pretty much every night so I take it he is doing well haha...

Eric started work this week and has really enjoyed it. He was worried because the boy he worked with last summer ended up not coming back this summer but he said his new work buddy is pretty cool too. 

My appetite is now HUGE!! All I ever want to do is eat and I never feel full... 

Other than that all is well! Asher's collection of clothes, blankets, and other odds and ends continues to get bigger (I don't know if that is a good or bad thing haha!) and Eric and I are getting more and more excited by the day! We can't wait for our little man to be here.

WAYYY behind! :/

I have let myself get super behind schedule! :/

We have been super crazy busy with graduation, finals, packing, moving, getting settled at my grandmas, and me starting my new job.

So before I get into all the baby business and fun pregnancy experiences I figure I'll hurry and talk about graduation and how everything finished up at Snow :)

So on May 5th Eric and I both graduated from Snow College :)

Our families came down to Ephraim to support us and right after the ceremony we all headed back to our apartment and worked our butts off on getting everything cleaned and loaded!

I am happy to say that we successfully got everything moved out of our apartment and settled in a temporary home until August when we get to go through the wonderful moving process all over again :(

As far as school went... both of us got pretty great grades this semester (we both got passing grades in our math 1050 class! Whoo hoo! :)) and I even got to graduate with honors for having a 3.7 GPA!

Other than that nothing too exciting happened in Ephraim.. I mean really, what can happen in good old Sanpete County that is too exciting?? ;)

This is a picture we took with Eric's phone right after graduation! My mom took a million pictures so hopefully eventually I'll have more to post haha!

Now for the fun stuff :)

As far as little baby Asher goes, things have been amazing! It is hard to remember exactly what happened when but I will try to do my best at recapping the last 2 weeks that I missed and then hopefully in a few days I can find time to post about being 20 weeks haha!

SOOO...

18 weeks:

Nothing crazy exciting happened during this week but I enjoyed it none the less.

I did somehow catch an awful cold (the week of finals of course) and had to try and pack our entire apartment, get all of the last minute moving plans sorted out, and study for my finals all with a lovely fever! Luckily after 3 days my fever went away and I was able to work around the smokers cough and runny nose haha!

This week my food aversions were SUPER strong... for some reason eggs and broccoli make me want to throw up, which is weird because I loved both before I got pregnant!

Poor Eric... haha! He had to put up with eating the same things for about 2 weeks because they were the only things that sounded good to me.

This week was also the start of having bad lower back pains (I had been having some issues throughout the whole pregnancy but this week they started to get even worse!)

19 weeks:

This week something crazy exciting did happen.... I FELT LITTLE  ASHER MOVE FOR THE FIRST TIME!!! It was so amazing!

It is kind of a funny story really. This past Saturday was fairly busy for me. Eric and I decided that since we hadn't made time to go on a date with just the two of us for a couple months it was time we changed that and planned to go out Saturday night! I was so excited to get to spend some alone time with him.

Before the date, however, I had to go to a bridal shower for Kayla Castagno (which was a blast!)

At the bridal shower I ate tons of candy and junk food and drank 3 little glasses of sprite, which doesn't sound bad, but Eric and I have been off soda for over a month now so it was really not the best idea haha! Before the shower I also ate chinese food which both Kami and Britt said caused problems for them when they were pregnant thanks to the MSG....

well long story short, we got on the date and the minute we got to Jordan Landing and started shopping I started to feel a tiny bit sick to my stomach but I was sure it was just from eating too much sugar and that it would go away shortly...

Well after an hour of shopping I was feeling REALLY sick and completely ruining our first date in months haha.

We went to Kneaders and I ordered a cup of Tomato soup and took one bite and knew that it wasn't a good idea so we boxed it up and I just rested and tried to feel better while Eric ate.

After dinner Eric thought he should just take me home but I was determined to not completely ruin the date so I insisted that we followed through with our plans of going to the movie.

(We went and saw "What to expect when you're expecting" and it was hilarious! I loved it sooo much!)

I made it through the movie but after I still felt really sick. We started talking and I was describing how I felt and we kind of decided that I was bloated from eating so much junk and drinking soda for the first time in a month and that if I went home and went to bed I would feel better...

Well while in the middle of feeling absolutely miserable I felt more amazing then ever before :)

I am pretty sure it was because I was bloated but I felt a little kick in my stomach and then a little flutter and then another little kick! I couldn't believe it! I was so excited! I had been feeling disappointed that I was already 19 and 1/2 weeks and never felt the baby move cause all of my friends said they felt their baby at 18 weeks. Throughout the following 30 minutes of driving I felt him kick and wiggle about 5 more times! Later that night I ended up throwing up, which helped me feel better but I haven't felt little Asher move since... Apparently I have to pick between feeling him move and not feeling like I am going to puke haha!

Other than that, nothing too big. My back has been KILLING me which is no fun but Eric is a good sport to give me some pretty awesome back rubs :)

As far as my baby bump goes... still just chub haha! It makes me laugh because when I found out I was pregnant I was counting down to when I'd be 12 weeks because I was sure that my belly would be showing by then...

Well I'm almost 20 weeks and still just look like I've gained a few extra pounds haha!

The no soda drinking really has helped me though! Since I stopped drinking soda I haven't gained any weight which means that essentially I've lost the bad kind of weight! :) I have gained about 6-7 pounds total, depending on the day I weigh myself haha!

We have our targetted ultrasound appointment next tuesday and we also were able to switch doctors so we are super excited for our next appointment! :)

Other than that Eric has just been enjoying having a few weeks off before his job starts and I have been enjoying working at Kidsville daycare and just taking it easy really! :)

As for our families.... They have been having a little too much fun spoiling our handsome little guy haha!

Not going to lie... I am loving the fact that Asher is going to be the first grandbaby/great-grandbaby/nephew/ great- nephew on my side of our family.... Eric and I aren't going to have to buy a single thing haha!

Hopefully I'll be able to post again soon with some more updates! Until then I will just enjoy being prego and be extremely grateful for everyday that goes by that I safely carry this baby closer to being in our arms! :)

Baby Asher :)

Sooo the verdict is.... IT'S A BOY!! :)

We had some difficulties with our doctor again (imagine that) so we ended up having one of my sister in law's friends help us out! She was super nice and seriously was able to tell us in less than a minute what we were having!

So more about our doctor. Our appointment was set for Monday at 3 PM and we were so excited to get to find out! I was almost 17 weeks and he told us at our last appointment that we would for sure get to find out at this appointment. Well he came in for our 2 minute appointment and wouldn't even try to get the baby to move so that he could tell us.

We were really frustrated because we even expressed how disappointing it was that we couldn't find out and asked if he used a different method of ultrasound or if I got up and drank something if we could see if that would work and he just told us that sometimes that will work but there was no guarentee so he wasn't going to spend the time to do that.

It was soo frustrating and we left the office with me bawling my eyes out yet again.

Luckily Kam's friend Heather was able to come to the rescue and see us the next day after hours and she was so awesome! She printed us a ton of different pictures and we got to find out like we had been planning! :)

It was really funny because Kami came with us so Heather would know who we were during the ultrasound Kami used Eric's phone to record our reactions. Heather was on the phone when she started the ultrasound so we were just watching and within 30 seconds Kami was like "ohh! Can I take a guess?? I think I know!" It was so obvious! We laughed and laughed and when Heather got off the phone we asked her if it really was a boy and she said "Ohh yeah, that is one that one of our ultrasound tech's would have said 'that is one for the dad to be proud of!'"

Eric thought that was pretty funny and was grinning from ear to ear haha! We are super excited and all of our families are too! :)

This is a cute 3D one with Asher's hands up by his face :)

For some reason Eric and I were both fascinated by how cute little Asher's feet are haha! We got lots of good pictures of them and they are sooo cute!

This was 3D of his little feet/legs

And there is his tiny little foot! See.. cute, right??

In other news, we went home last weekend from Saturday-Tuesday and I somehow caught a sickness that is definitely winning the battle between the two of us! I am soooo sick! :( I have been running a fever and coughing up a storm due to the fact that I am so congested and I think I have gone through about 3 rolls of toilet paper blowing my nose! I get into these chill spells and I just start sweating extremely bad but I am freezing. It is the worst feeling ever!

Since this is finals week and we move home on Saturday, I haven't been able to just lay around like I want to. We have so much packing to do but luckily we both only have 1 more final!

Hopefully today is my last day of sickness so that I can buckle down tomorrow and get everyting done.

Last bit of good news, I got a job! I am going to work at a daycare twice a week from 8AM-4PM and then the other 3 days from 12PM-2:30PM. It is only about 20 hours a week but I really think I will enjoy it and I can't say that I'm not excited to have some time for relaxing haha!

Lastly, I just have 3 more pictures :)

a Profile-ish picture of Asher Eric Allred :)

These are 2 belly picture I took right around 17 weeks :)

16 weeks :)

ONLY 5 DAYS UNTIL WE FIND OUT BOY OR GIRL!!!
I am seriously so excited! That is easily the best thing about this week of pregnancy.
Our appointment is Monday at 3 PM and I already can't do anything but think and talk about it! I am soooo anxious.
Other news about pregnancy... I have only gained 1 pound the past 3 weeks but I'm still within the weight gain limit so I'm hoping it is nothing to be worried about.
Eric and I have also made it our goal to get into better shape! We have been pretty good about going on walks since I found out I was pregnant but n ot enough to help me stay fit so after talking to our doctor and getting the okay we have started adding stretches of jogging into our 3 mile walks! My goal is to be able to run or at least half run half walk the 4th of July 5K with my big old belly.
We have also decided to take a break from drinking soda and try to increase how much water we drink!
I really want to try and be extremely healthy throughout this pregnancy so that I don't gain a bunch of unneeded weight that I struggle to work off after the baby comes.
Since our baby will be born in October I want to try and stay in really really good shape up until he or she is born so that I can take advantage of the last few weeks of great fall weather after and hopefully jump right back into exercising!
In terms of school, this week has been super crazy! Eric and I spent 5 hours doing nothing but assignments yesterday (luckily that got us almost completely finished!) Other than just homework I work the rest of the week as well so hopefully I can squeeze everything in between classes and work so I don't have to stress over the weekend.
Eric and I are moving back to Tooele next Saturday and we haven't even started packing so that is a whole other job to add to the list as well...
This summer could be an interesting one, especially since at the moment I don't have a job! :/
I have been applying everywhere so we are hoping that we will hear some good news soon.
That is pretty much all the exciting stuff going on for now, I will hopefully get the chance to blog next monday or tuesday about the gender of our baby and until then we are just praying that Baby Allred cooperates enough for us to actually find out this appointment... I was super disappointed last appointment so I don't know what I would do if we don't get to find out this appointment!

15 weeks :)

Today marks the start of my 15th week of pregnancy! Nuts!
I haven't really had any sickness or insane cravings that I can think of (I did eat half a jar of pickles by myself in one sitting last night but I think that might just be cause I love pickles haha!)
I am feeling a lot more squishy these days and have started exercising a little bit more...
I am really get sick of feeling chubby icky! Even my legs are starting to feel more chubby!
I feel like I've gained the most weight this week and the ironic thing is that I haven't even gained a single pound! I don't know if I am just imagining it or if my body is truly changing but just not weight-wise.
Anyways, other than that I just have had to start adjusting to being hungry all the time...
At first I would come home and eat a huge lunch because I felt so hungry but no matter how much I ate within 2 hours I'd be hungry again so I have started to realize that I need to eat my 3 normal meals and try to keep them on the small side so that in 2 hours I can have a small snack without eating enough food to sustain 5 grown men! haha!
This week (and the next two weeks) have been/are going to be extremely stressful! Next week is our last week of class and the following week is finals which means that this week is the last week to work on all of our lovely group projects teachers find so convient at the end of the term. Luckily I've only have to work twice this week!
In other news, This weekend should be super fun and exciting! The Allred's are gone to Disneyland for the weekend so we will be spending lots of time with my family which will be good since it is Baylee's prom this weekend! We get to go home first thing friday morning (we are actually going to one of my good friends weddings at the Oquirrh Mountain temple on the way! :)) and the lovely Shayna Watson will be cutting my hair which i am so excited for! I've been growing my hair out and it has grown a ton but it is just in a super awkward length which is another factor in me never feeling cute so I'm hoping that with a little color added and some new bangs I will gain a new opinion about my appearance! :)
and for a last note... in exactly 12 days Eric and I will know if we have a little Kaydynce or Asher! We can't wait!! :)
