21 Weeks.

Yesterday we had our 20 week doctor's appointment for little girl.

And yes, we verified that SHE is still a SHE.

It was such a great appointment and the ultrasound lasted well over a half an hour giving us plenty of time to ooh and ahh over our adorable little girl.

Sitting Indian Style.

She is weighing in at about 14 oz, has the most delicious little lips I've ever seen and is even getting a little "meat" on her tiny thighs.

The nurse said she has a good strong heart beat and everything is measuring to where it should be this far along.

We had a pretty unique experience during the ultrasound.

The nurse was measuring the bladder and noticed how "big" or full it looked. She thought she better measure it quick and as soon as the size recorded our little girl emptied that bladder of hers.

Now, it may seem gross to talk about my unborn child peeing inside of me but, it was actually really cool to see her bladder "shrink" after she emptied.

Something I would have NEVER thought about if I hadn't watched it happen.

The ultrasound tech was so wonderful and did a fabulous job explaining what we were looking at and what it should be measuring according to the baby's age.

Everything was measuring SPOT ON to our February 14th due date!

The nurse did point out that my placenta implanted very low and that I could be at risk of Placenta Previa.

At this early stage we can just watch it and see if it moves up and hopefully not over where it would be covering my cervix.

I really am not too worried about it at this point but I am so thankful for early detection and technology that will allow us to watch it closely as the baby grows so we can be prepared for a C-Section if it goes that route!

Prayers it won't!!

Guess it's finally safe to start buying little girl clothes and painting the room pink!

So excited and I think it will FINALLY set in that I am going to get my "mini-me" to dress up in BIG dresses and fluffy socks and lots of head bands!

Hooray.

What are you all up to this weekend?

I will be catching up on some blog posts (yes, really)

and listening to Latter Day Prophets speak.

Come Watch or Listen Also.

I always hear something amazing that inspires, touches and changes me! 

You might to! 

PS. 

It's starting to look A LOT like Fall around here.

Is it at your house also?

We LOVe it.

Looking forward to the weekend.

It's Friday.

Each week it seems like I am counting down the days until it's Friday.

Why do I love Friday so much? 

Because it means that I get to spend the next TWO days with Kevin & Hunter doing whatever we want.

Kevin has been working so hard these last few months, including late hours at the office, and it is so nice when he finally gets home. 

Hunter lights up as soon as he sees Kevin and I just know that he misses him during the day.

We have lots of fun things planned for tomorrow but only if the weather stops being silly and lets the sun come back out to play.

I am most looking forward to being at home with my family for

The 183rd Annual General Conference.

It's one of my favorite times of the year and I invite you to join me.

You can watch it here on Saturday & Sunday.

(Watch this NOW to get you in the spirit)

Since it's raining, and Hunter is asleep in his swing 
(only took him an hour to fall asleep... silly teething) 
I figured I'd share a HOT LIST.

This week I will share an item that we each used this week and one item that is on each of our wish lists.

Hot List Used.

Hunter.

Baby Orajel has been a LIFESAVER in our house this week.

Hunter's 3rd & 4th teeth are coming in.

One on top and one on bottom.

They are being so vicious and Hunter is trying so hard to fight through it.

When he just can't handle the pain we put on a little of the Orajel and it seems to relieve some of his discomfort. 

Mommy.

For Easter I got this adorable pink tumbler.

Kevin and I have both made it a goal to be a little healthier and exercise more and having this tumbler has really helped me fight off one of my biggest addictions, Dr. Pepper.

I try to keep the tumbler full all of the time so when I am feeling thirsty I take a swig of my water instead of popping open a soda. 

I refill the tumbler 6+ times a day and have only had a couple sodas this week.

It's a little thing... but it's a start.

Daddy.

Like I mentioned above, Kevin and I are trying to exercise more and he is on top of working out. 

It's helpful that we were able to put a "mini gym" in our unfinished basement.

Kevin was able to find this pull up/dip machine on KSL for a great price and has been using it a lot.

It's just like the one we used when we had a Golds Gym membership except now we can use it whenever we want.

(Like at 5am when Kevin wakes up to work out before work... what a stud)

Hot List Wants.

Hunter.

I have been OBSESSING over these CandyKirby baby leggings for months now.

I think Hunter NEEDS a pair, since he is crawling all over, and I might just have to buy him this pair soon.

CK leggings are all handmade from organic cotton and the patterns are to die for.

Have a little one? 

You have to check our the website.

Mommy.

I am IN LOVE with these Jessica Simpson Ginny Daffodil Wedges. 

So cute and PERFECT for Spring.

Dress them up with a cute Sunday outfit or with a pair of Capri's for an afternoon out with my boys.

Aw. Why does my birthday have to be in the same month as Christmas?

$$ Must. Save. To. Buy $$

Daddy.

This is REAL LIFE.

A HOVER GOLF Cart. 

How awesome would this be?

We are so lucky to have a cart when we go golfing

 (I cant imagine hauling that bag full of clubs around 9 holes) 

but how cool would it be to just hover around the green's AND the water?

No Big Deal.

I saw it on the Today Show this morning.

See it HERE to believe it. 

(Kev, I promise to buy this for you when we are ga-jillionaires... Someday)

I linked up w/Family Fridays. 
Go See!
