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. :)

Feeling Stressed...

So i woke up in the middle of the night last night (as i usually do) for an hour and tried to fall asleep in spite of the snoring man next to me and the loud running kitty in the hallway.... I just laid there and thought about when Lucas would get here.... i counted quickly how much time i had left with peace and quiet.... FOUR AND A HALF MONTHS! wow... that's like NOTHING. I realized that i'm scared to death of all this change.... i don't really think about being a good mother or anything like that... i mostly think of selfish things like... wow... we won't be able to just sit on the couch in silence like this and watch shows all cuddled up..... or i'm gonna have to take care of someone inbetween working at my desk at work....or how the crap am i ever gonna get to draw when IIII wanna draw with this baby always around me....and then breast feeding.... SHEESH... that's like this whole other thing i really don't wanna do... i mean, i'm gonna but i really don't like the dependence of a child on my body. That's annoying. So yeah... i'm selfish... but then i think about all the sweet things and it makes it a little easier... not really... but kinda. Luckily i finally fell asleep after the hour and was able to sleep for a good 3 hours before i had to get up again and go pee. What a life.

Why MY friends are the best, EVER.

Okay so Thursday night i came home and Enos was watching tv with a package on the ottoman in front of him... in my pregnant mind i was thinking... crap... did i order something for Lucas and forget about it? Enos is going to be so pissed. He looked at me and said, "so... this came in the mail today... did you order more clothes for Lucas?" I read the package label and not recognizing the name thought, "ewww...i hope i didn't..." (i promised Enos i wouldn't go overboard since money is tight)... When i opened it there was a card on top with a picture of this monster i had drawn and i note from my friend Sheriece.




How sweet! So i tear open the tissue paper and THIS guy pops out. I think i'll name him Chad until Lucas is here and comes up with his REAL name.

He's cozy and monstery and i love him and i know Lucas will love to snuggle with him because i do. Since we have a monster theme it's PERFECT. Sheriece found someone on Etsy to handmake a monster based on the one i drew. Thanks so much Sheriece!!! I love him to death, he's so creepy. :)

Baby Clothes Fix

After going to Target and being REALLY disappointed by the new born clothes we found... we are gonna take everything we got, BACK. You all made comments on where to find cute clothes and so we took one of your advice and went to Old Navy... i NEVER go there because i never find anything for myself BUT... i was so pleasantly surprised to find the most riDICULOUSLY cute little baby clothes...even for a new born... wow... what a handsome lad we're gonna have. Here are the things we bought. We saw TONS more that we liked but we had a budget and so we only bought these items...but wow... everything was 40% off! It was a good experience because Enos even uttered the words, "OH MY PRECIOUS." Honestly... that's how i know when something is too cute. So... thanks for all of your advice... and YES i realize that once he gets older or i have more kids i'll care less about their clothes... but until i stop caring... might as well enjoy it.

i love these shoes because they are something III would wear.

okay.. i can't get across how cute these are... honestly... they are so fricken small you just wanna giggle when you see them.

that is all.

Sunday Bloody Sunday

What an UNinteresting day... Enos and I were bored beyond beLIEF. It's now 9:30pm and we've done... well... NOTHING.....we didn't go to church because we didn't know where our stake building was (even after looking online, we had stake conference and apparently our ward doesn't exist) and i was feeling a bit queezy.... we topped the day off by going to the grocery store because i was craving milk and we only had soy milk. When we came back... i'm not sure how it all started but we ended up swaddling (well enos did) Geoffrey and then all cuddling on the bed and laughing at how ridiculous he looked, cozy he was and how degrading it must have been for him. So naturally... we took pictures.

Quirks update... the LIE

okay... so everyone pretty much guessed it. it's number 6. I actually CAN stand the sight of my own blood. i like to watch my blood get taken and once i even watched a mole on my stomach get removed... it was so fascinating... i know i know... i'm weird. what can i say... i'm a george girl.
