Our little tadpole....

You have to admit...10 week old babies look like tadpoles :). Well...9 weeks 6 days...so the doctor said today at our appointment. Yup! That's right, baby #3 will grace us with his/her presence in April...due date is April 11th.
Tomorrow...10 weeks...Tadpole officially turns from embryo to fetus...so much info out there, it's astounding. This pregnancy was actually a planned one. I had been feeling very strongly this summer that it was time for baby #3 and one day James made the comment "We should have another baby" and so...we did.
But it's different when you are actually trying...instead of using the "Whoops" method...cause you know EXACTLY when you are preggo and you are SO excited...yet you don't want to tell everyone quite yet because you are what? 2 weeks pregnant. So you wait....then your mom gets mad because you waited a week to tell her (Sorry, moms).

How am I feeling? (I get this question alot, but that's ok...Ü)
I feel....
GOOD....odd, huh? Well...not good in a normal sense, obviously pregnancy is not a 'fun' thing to go thru. AND, I don't want to jink myself...like I did with Aube (felt fine and dandy, then when I least expected it, I was worshiping the porcelain). I am completely and utterly EXHAUSTED. Like...dude...I'm TIRED. I'm usually a tired gal anyways due to my job and staying up till 1-2am most nights. But this is just (to use the unpopular, Rachel Zoe phrase) BANANAS (which I crave...odd). I'm a zombie. And really, would I trade exhaustion for the overwhelming nausea that consumed my life for 3 months with numbers 1 and 2? Umm...nope. It's not like I have no nausea...I feel pretty icky when my sugar is low...cause I don't eat that much....cause nothing sounds good....except fast food...and weren't we trying to save money?? Yeah...but what can you do?
Also...I'm like uber emotional...I cry over anything...TV shows, billboards, new babies, people and their dumb ways, someone's clothing scattered all over the highway....it's pathetic. *sniff*
But, we take the good with the bad....cause the end result out weighs everything that pregnancy puts us thru!

It's official!

I just got the email back approving my time off and I'll be booking my plane tickets tomorrow!

The girls and I will be visiting Vegas, Cedar City, SLC and hopefully Rexburg (yay for new babies) from February 25th thru March 18th!! How fantastic is that?! Thats like 3 weeks, baby!

TOUCHDOWN!!! **updated

Yesterday, I was chit-chatting it up with my sister Emmalee (which was totally rad, by the way, Em...it's not so easy to TALK as it is to TEXT!) and James comes into the office and stands there, looks at me with that crazy look in his eye and says "I just won Cowboy tickets." Then walks away, in true James-like fashion.

"YOU WON COWBOYS TICKETS, HOLY CRAP ARE YOU KIDDING ME?"

Obviously, I am going to get a little more excited b/c #1 I just get crazy excited about stuff we win, because WE NEVER WIN ANYTHING or get ANYTHING for free, for that matter! and #2 James "new found" like/love for the Cowboys is pretty cool....just this weekend, after watching a game, James says to me "Wouldn't it be cool to go to a game?"

Your wish is my command...lol.

James totally debated (and probably still is) selling them, but what the heck...we will never in 100 years be able to afford tickets to something like this. (and truthfully, if we COULD afford season tickets to anything, it would be to the Mavericks...basketball is easier for my small brain to understand.)

So, thanks to help covering work by Shannon and thanks to Jenny for helping with the girls, James and I will be going to our first (and probably ONLY) Cowboys game!

***The game is against the Cinncinati Bengals (whoever they are Ü heh)**

Counting down the days!

Seriously...

FOUR DAYS.

I am in the middle of a crazy long book and I'm reading like a MAD WOMAN to try and get finished so I can start Breaking Dawn in FOUR DAYS...woohoo!!

If I didn't have visitors all weekend...I would totally throw a "Who do you love?" Party...and totally make ya'll these invites.

Ahh...maybe next time.

I'm soooo excited!

{Bliss}

On Saturday...Shannon and I went to go get pedicures to make up for a postponed shopping trip to the Allen Outlet Malls...and the ladies do SUCH a wonderful job at this place...and the chairs massage you away into bliss. {Shannon got a haircut, ya'll need to bug her to post pictures, it's cute!} You might say "SARAH...this picture of your toes is blurry! We can't see the awesome art the lady painted on them!"
Well....as I was uploading the pictures, there were PLENTY of non-blurry toes to pick from...but I picked this b/c of what is NOT blurry! See there....on the 31st....it says "MOM here!" Yup, thats right....my MOMMY is coming to town! I cannot even express how excited I am. For awhile there I didn't think it was going to happen, I got pretty sad....but then she called to say she BOOKED THE TICKETS and I could just cry...I could cry right now with excitement (big ole baby). Talk about bliss....
