funny

I was looking at old belly pictures and I had a good laugh. I thought I was showing so much in this picture at 16 weeks.

And here's one of me today in all my pregnant glory at almost 30 weeks (it'll be 30 weeks tomorrow)



So noteworthy pregnancy stuff, Penny moves allllll the time now. Seriously all day long she's moving. You can feel her with your hand and/or see her move a lot now too! Ever since getting home from Cali she's been moving so so much. She's always been a wiggler but it's so fun to have her moving so others (Chris) can actually enjoy it daily too!

It's becoming increasingly harder to sleep at night. Most nights I end up on the couch for a few hours of sleep. I don't know why but it works to get up go on the couch sleep there for a bit then come back to bed.  I'm only uncomfortable when there's pressure on my belly... like when I try to sleep rolled over too much (half on my side half on my belly) or Chris tries to snuggle by leaning up against me while we're sitting stuff like that. My back bothers me sometimes because it gets really tight but I had that before ever getting pregnant. I'm still drinking like a camel and that's pretty much it. Our next appointment is next Thursday so I'll probably do an other update then.

4 years!

This past Sunday was our 4 year anniversary. Mom and dad took us out to dinner to Thai Kitchen the night before to celebrate! It was super yummy. Then our on our anniversary we went to church, I took a nap and then we went to a Christenson extended family get together that the family back home have once a month. It was a nice relaxed day. Then Monday, yesterday, was spent driving back home to SLC. On the drive I was asking Chris different questions about being married and about the baby coming. These were some of my favorites:

What has been your favorite part of being married?
Being with you

What do you mean by that? Does it matter what we’re doing or just doing whatever as long as we’re together?
Just as long as we’re together, just being with you (How cute is he?!?)

What are you looking forward to the most? (about the baby coming)
Holding her

What are you most afraid of?
Her making wrong choices

What are you most afraid of when she’s a baby?
Not being able to get her to stop crying

What do you think you’ll be a best at?
Leaving her be (I will definitely think I need to do something when I should just leave her alone)

What do you hope to be best at?
Being daddy (I thought that was funny and told him that he will be best because he is going to be her only daddy and so by default he’ll be the best. He was all alright! Lol)

We did the me asking questions and him answering thing for a while but those were my favorites.

I'm so happy to be married to my best friend! He is such an amazing husband and I love being his wife. We're so excited to have our little girl join our family!
