Feeling all Flashback-y.

Sooo... as you may already know...i used to live in the basement of Andrew and Janae's house... it was good times, awkward times and irritating times... but then they moved to Arizona... and now it's just lonely times. I've been missing them for a while now but today just put it over the edge when my parents and enos and i all drove through the Alpine Loop and stopped in at Sundance to ride the lift and get hot chocolate this sunday.... instead of going to church... (much in the style of andrew and janae)... we walked passed Ray's Lift and i just sighed because i wanted to ride it for old times sake... but it was shut down for the day... (too much snow this morning).... Then i went through all my pictures of them and found a couple of my favorites... as well as some stolen one's from her blog....*sigh*

riding ray's lift back in 2005.... before a shower... before we really knew these people.

sassy girl on our first camping trip...

going down the hill at warp speeds.

celebrating christmas.... in november.

camping with Cruella.

before Janae's second death... and Henry's debut. (gosh we look skinny... *sigh*)


Miss you lover.

Halloween and randomness

well... my parents have been here this weekend and we had a lot of fun. We went to gardner's village (which for those of you who don't know...it's like a really cute crafty shopping place)... my mom and i go every year. As usual she bought me some cute halloween things :) But i'm getting ahead of myself... first are a couple of pictures of our apartment... they are messy but i just don't see us cleaning for the pictures.

the dining room....

the living room... (with a handsome man and a unpainted canvas... i still haven't figured out what to put there...)

random Lucas gifts from Maw Maw's visit

AND NOW FOR HALLOWEEN...

our front door....

hydrocephalus boy...

gause spider...

angry pumpkin cat.... (really... cats SO deserve things like this...)

But sometimes i still love him... like when he does the following...

what a silly feline.

In case you missed him on my art blog.... Lucas at home.

Updated Belly Pics

Sooo... i'm 21 weeks now... and my boobs are huge... you may look at this picture and go... uhh whatever... but for someone who's always been small up north... it's hard to adjust to these THINGS... i don't know how you other women deal with them on a regular basis! And my tummy touches my boobs when i lean over... it's a weird feeling. oh yeah... and my butt IS getting bigger. thanks a lot genetics. That's all. *sigh* I know i know.. it could be worse... i could weigh 100 lbs more and look sweaty. I'm just feeling down because one of my favorite accessories are tights and i can't fit into mine anymore... it cuts off circulation to my belly... it's really uncomfortable... I guess i'll buy more shoes and ugly bags.

Sister shoes

Jessica bought Lucas these little vans... aren't they sassy? I thought so too. I can't wait til his big enough to where them and out of my womb.

New baby= new, old car

So Enos and I went to test drive a car last Saturday just to see how we liked the Scion xb... now before you go judging... yes... it's a bit hideous of a car... but i still really like it... i guess i'll attribute it to my love (and buying) of ugly things....most times it doesn't work out... but in this case... it did. We wanted black but were willing to settle since this car was a good deal. It's a 2005 with 46,000 miles on it and it's in really good condition. Anywho... Here are some pictures for you obsessive blog checkers (janae and jessica). Oh and sorry Janae... I keep forgetting to take pictures of my apt when it's clean... mostly because it's never clean. Deal with it.

the hip dash.

Lucas' Debut Video

Welp... i'm EXACTLY half way today... phew... and we had another doctor's appointment where they gave us a DVD of him breaking out his new moves...it's really sassy. You'll see in the video he slaps the wall of the uterus...he's so abusive....and he does it all the time. I just yell at him to stop but he never listens. I put together a short little video of him doing things. It's mostly for grandma's but you might enjoy it too.... my favorite is the swallowing... it's so precious. Enos and i agree he looks like me, but i can see some Enos in him too. What a sexy lad.

He was crossing his ankles in this picture... ya know, just hanging out.

sorry the video is a bit shaky...i was recording a recording... (it's a long story)

MY Enos the Genius :)

Sooo... i know i haven't posted in a while but really.. i had nothing to say... until NOW... i just want to announce that Enos now has TWO interviews for dental school!!! One at Western University in Pomona, California (next friday) and another one at IU in Indianapolis (november 7). That's all... just wanted to say how excited we are and how great this is since it's the second year we've applied to dental school and nothing really happened the first time around....and yes i say WE because i helped him....so THERE. :).....oh, also... i have to say that my favorite part of this dental school process is the unknown spontaneity of "where are we going to live for the next four years?"...no i'm serious... i love it... it's so something Enos would never do... he's Mr. Planner. but he can't be with this....it's great. :)
