Here are the pictures from the hospital from when he was born until we got home a little over 24 hours later. We are so blessed to have this beautiful miracle, one of Heavenly Father's, blessed children in our home. He is a joy to have and so far we love being parents-even with the sleepless nights.

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween! I figured I better finish this blog post before it is too late. Not a whole lot to say except for that I think I pretty much had the coolest contest. Too bad I didn't have a costume contest to enter because I think I may have been a contender. Don't worry I will post about the little punkin soon.

Ward Trunk or Treat- Farmer Ezra

Scarecrow mama and little punkin!

At the school carnival Ezra got to wear his batman costume. He really wanted to wear it on Halloween, but we spent most the evening in the hospital being monitored. We were a little worried because the baby hadn't moved as much. Baby was fine, but my blood pressure was a little elevated. They took labs and said possible induction if labs came back abnormal. Luckily everything was okay so we got to go home.
Hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable Halloween!
Can't wait for next year with a real punkin to dress up!

Woah! How time flies!

Okay, so I figured I'd better post because pretty soon my little bundle of joy will be here and I won't be posting for a little. I cannot believe that my baby is due in a little over a week. We are extremely excited to meet the little guy but I have to say I'm a little nervous at the unknown. Unknown as to the time, the pain, the labor, the delivery.

Unfortunately for me over the last week or so I have developed a rather serious itch. My belly was itching mostly, but I assumed it was because the stretch marks. Which I thought I was doing great a few light ones on the left side and only 2 on the right side. But alas, within a week they spread and darkened and also decided to develop into a rash. So now, I have little red bumps all over my tummy with my stretch marks and nothing seems to help. Look at the bright side- I'm sure when he is in my arms I will forget all about the itching.

Well, then last week my ankles and calves started itching really bad also. I figured they're stretching from swelling so I won't worry about. I called the Dr on Monday and he said he wasn't too worried either. Well by today, I have little red rashy bumps up and down my legs, my thighs, my arms, my back, and my belly. The Dr says he is worried it could be ICP which is intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy. Which is what I had worried about when I called on Monday. Basically, the test takes too long to get back (a week) and since I'm due in a week and 3 days its not worth it. So he is going to monitor me closer because it could be risky to the baby.

I'm going to be a mom sometime within a week and 2 days!!!!! I can't believe it! I have really enjoyed being pregnant (well now minus the itch, but at least its only the last 10 days)! I love feeling my little boy stretch and move inside of me. I can't wait to meet him and see what he looks like and his personality. Well, anyhow I will post a few belly pics tomorrow and maybe a nice rash picture too. If anyone has ideas for getting rid of the itch let me know.

Our Beautiful Baby Boy in 3d!

About a week and 1/2 ago we went and got a 3d ultrasound done. We got a good deal and figured it would be really neat especially for our first baby. I tried drinking a milkshake to make sure he was moving around. He was moving and we got a DVD of him, but I think he is getting limited on space. I just think he is so cute. He is chubby already-I think maybe we like ice cream a little too much. Oops...it's only vanilla for the extra calcium, right? Well, anyhow here are some of my favorites from the pictures we got. There were a lot to choose from. He definitely has his Daddy's nose and he has lots of hair too. I think he may have inherited his Daddy's sleepiness...he kept rubbing his eyes as if he were saying, "I wish they'd stop poking around up there-I really just want to sleep!" If you look closely there are a few where his eyes are actually open. Pretty amazing! I love him so much and I think he is absolutely perfect!

For those who think I'm just lazy!

I have been so horrible in blogging about anything or everything. I feel kind of guilty because my pregnancy is almost over and I haven't kept a very good journal about it. Here is one reason why I don't really feel like blogging much anymore-which I have made mention before. I no longer have humanistic legs/feet but they more closely resemble an elephant! Warning: These pictures may be considered graphic! Well they are definitely not something most people would post, but just so those of you who think I'm being lazy- I am! I deserve to be- I can't sit at the computer after working all day because they just keep growing and growing!

Now don't get me wrong- I'm not complaining at all. I actually find it slightly amusing (since its not anything serious like preclampsia) but the amusement only lasts as long as they are not being pressured or pushed upon. Maybe I should take one of the Dr's thumb print in my leg next time. :) So don't read this as a complaint, but merely an excuse! I love being pregnant and I can't believe how fast its gone by, but I think I have the right to put my feet up instead of blogging after a long days' work. This is how they look on a daily basis within an hour or so of waking up.Trying to point what used to be beautiful dancer feet! I can't flex or point anymore and please don't comment on the polish-

I can't do that myself either anymore!

An aerial view!

Computer is Fixed and thanks if you voted!

Okay, my computer is fixed so here goes all my back posts! The only crappy thing is I have to find my files on the back up disks now to upload pics because our hard drive crashed! So they may not be the best posts because I am not going to spend hours going through them to find the right pictures.

For those of you who read this before I edited and voted for our school-thank you. I am 99% sure that we won! Last I checked we were up by about 14 votes! Thanks again and stay tuned for blogging....not tomorrow though busy with Young Women's and other good stuff.

So What's My Excuse Now?

Well, I know most of you just think all I do is make up excuses for my lack of blogging. The other half of you probably think I should just take responsibility and stop justifying. Oh well, it's my blog so I can make excuses when I feel excuses are due. I was planning on blogging- I PROMISE I was. I had new pictures and everything....well then my computer stopped working and it is now in the hands of THE GEEK SQUAD...not a good idea but all we could do since at least we didn't have to pay. I am not a huge fan of Best Buy if anyone wants to know why feel free to ask, but it's not a company I am going to continue to spend money on.

So, very kindly, Emily's mom, let us borrow her laptop temporarily until ours is fixed-although I just barely got it yesterday and I have been without the access to my computer and files for 8 days now. So I'm terribly sorry to inform you all that my blogging will continue when I get my computer back with my pictures on it, etc. etc.

But a big Thank You to Emily for having such a kind and generous mother.
