Don't Rain on my Parade
Being pregnant is different but my pregnancy has been different than everyone I know so far, I feel good, I feel great, I feel wonderful! Honestly, I am probably the most relaxed I have been in the past three years, work is calm, I am FINALLY having a baby.

| CC, Erin, Chica-Vegas-February 2011--probably conception! TMI? |
By nature, I am a planner, I like to plan. (Of course, I do not have one functional baby item but all the same, I am a planner.) Well, I have a plan after the babe is born, when CC gets home from work and I am feeling up to it, I will be hitting the gym hard. When I share this information with my friends--they rain. Can't I just have that dream? I know it might not happen but it's the plan! What good is life if there is not a plan? Shouldn't the father be involved and have at least 1-2 hours of alone time with his child? Why is that just the mothers responsibility? Seriously girlfriends, it is the 21st century, let's start living like it!
Loves and hugs--I'm going to have a baby and a life!

This Guy
I love this guy! He. Is. Bizarre. But I still love him.
It's a proud wifey moment when he reclaims things from the thrift store---but then when you see what he does with it...you never know. Tomorrow for work he is going to Rocky Mountain Speed Way to race cars...and he needed a 'Hot Rod' outfit.
Loves and hugs--That man! At least he will do kissy face with me whenever I ask!

Bathroom Day 1
The bathroom/house is re-plumbed! They were so fast...I think I may have gone into the wrong profession--with what they charge and the amount of time it takes. Today, they spent 7 hours and they are coming back Thursday to install the toilet, shower/bath, and the sink. (I will let you know how long it takes for them to finish the entire project!) CC has his hands full tonight framing in the bathroom but it is almost finished!

Loves and hugs--There is a HUGE possibility that I am going to have a second bathroom by the end of the weekend!

Bathroom
At this moment, I am sitting in my house, updating my blog, listening to a jackhammer. That's right, we are getting a new bathroom! This is the most exciting remodel moment in our house since the kitchen! Color scheme-selected, vanity-purchased. Good bye, one bathroom home, welcome second bath! I will update you once we are finished, I hope it is by the weekend, but that is if everything goes right! Fingers crossed everything goes alright.
Baby update: It's a girl! The questions I have been asked:
Q: What's her name?
A: Don't know.
Q: Will you let her wear pink?
A: We know most little girls wear pink and if she receives gifts in pink it will be ok, however, pink is not my favorite color, so if Mama has a say, please keep it to a minimum.
Q: Will you let her play with Barbies?
A: If she wants.
Q: Where are you registered?
A: Umm...Sometimes I am not sure I am REALLY pregnant. I have had an easy pregnancy and do not really think about it. I am a little overwhelmed with the entire process and not sure where to start...so, I am waiting.
Q: What have you bought for the baby?
A: A dress in Mexico and yesterday, I bought her, her very own Valentines Mailbox.
Q: Are you excited?
A: Absolutely, my entire life I wanted a little sister, now I will have my very own baby girl!
Q: How does Chica feel?
A: Hmmm, she is an interesting one. Since I have been pregnant and she can hear the heartbeat she avoids me. But now that she can still hear it she is doing better. I am a little worried about her but I know she will love her in her own time.
Q: Did Cory have a preference on the gender?
A: Nope, neither one of us cared we are just blessed to have a baby whatever he/she was suppose to be. He thinks he is going to have 'bad ass' girl so whatever.
That's all the questions I can remember so far...If you have more, just ask!
Loves and hugs--Big things are happening.

Sweet Summer
Dear Summer,
Thank you for finally joining us in Utah, it is now June and we finally hit 80 degrees. I cannot begin to tell you how thankful I am that you arrived, I was freezing to death and feared my garden was going to mold. My garden was planted almost a month ago and you are fortunate that it survived, I would have been very upset with you had it not. This afternoon I spent several hours in my newly purchased hammock and I was so peaceful. Please stay around for a while...winter is NOT my friend, you are!
Loves and hugs--I am finally thawing.

Soil
Something positive about living in Utah is the Sundance Film Festival. In 2009 there was a film, Dirt that shows the importance of good soil. I haven't had a chance to watch it yet but you know I am going to! Please, watch it with me...and then START COMPOSTING!
Loves and hugs--the veggies in my garden are growing in my latest batch of compost. I am SO excited for the results, only if it would stop snowing here.
