30 weeks tomorrow!



I'm three quarters of the way through this pregnancy!!!! 10 weeks should fly by, but from where I'm sittin' it still seems like forever. As much as I want to be done being pregnant, I know it's easier with her in my tummy than out, and at least I'm getting some fairly decent sleep at night in between potty trips. I thought I'd share this lovely photo of my swollen feet. Maybe a belly shot next time. I've tried taking them and I just can't stand it. I shudder, then immediately erase them.

Charlie is totally annoyed by my big belly. He wants to snuggle, and it just isn't the same, I can't wrestle, play steam roller or airplane, and for sure can't carry him around EVER. He told James he wants to take her out, "RIGHT NOW DADDY!!" and James asked him how we were going to get her out. You could seriously see the little brain wheels turning, then he said, "Mousketool?" For those of you who don't know what that is, you either don't have kids under 6 or you don't get the Disney channel.

Heres some pics from the kids' swimming lessons. Dillon is "advanced for his age" and is in a class with kids much older than him. He loves it, but 1/2 an hour is not enough time for him to practise diving, swimming freestyle, backstroke, and even butterfly! Charlie is also quite a fish and I think by the end of this session, he might even be able to swim without help! Crazy kids.





We went to Del Mar beach Saturday with my sister, mom and step dad. It was super fun. We (they) boogie boarded, dug holes, made sand castles, cooked wieners and smores. I mostly read my book, which was awesome too.





I've owned a purple Dodge Stratus for 10 years now, and today sold it to my little sister. I cannot believe it's not sitting in our garage right now! Now that I have the van and James has a new Civic, we really didn't need it and she did, so.... It's been quite the good little car. It drove both of my babies home from the hospital, moved us from UT, to AZ, to CA and drove us to many many places in between. I'll miss it.

On another note, I recognize myself in the mirror again! Well, from the neck up anyway. Last week I finally cut my hair short again. I LOVE IT! I am just meant to have short hair.
