finally...

I know it's been almost 2 months since my last post, but you wouldn't believe how busy life's been. Being pregnant still wears me out on a daily basis-this whole second trimester being easier on your body is bologna!! Yesterday Matt and I went out to lunch with Ty at Quizno's and after eating only 3 bites of my sandwich I got sick. No fun at all, especially when you don't get to the bathroom on time and well, yeah... :(. I felt icky the rest of the day and was feeling better today until about half an hour ago for some reason and now I'm boiling hot and can't seem to cool down no matter what I do.

However, on the very positive side, each and every day I am feeling the little peanut moving more and more!! And Matt's been able to feel it as well. It is a completely indescribable feeling and is so amazing that you can't understand until you feel it yourself. I can't believe I'm already halfway through my 5th month!! Over halfway done!! :) I'm gonna be a mommy soon!!!

Two weeks ago I went back to the glorious northwest for my grandmother's 85th birthday and father's day and a baby shower. It was an incredible week that was so busy it was over before I knew it. Thank you to all who came to the shower, I hope you had fun and enjoyed yourselves, I know I did! :) Sometimes I just step back and realize what an amazing family I do have. When people fly in from all over the world (my cousin lives in Ireland, me from AZ, and others from OR and WA) just to be with Grandma Sally on her 85th birthday it boggles my mind. She is such an amazing woman that I can only wish to be as loving a mother and good a friend as she is in my lifetime. I love my Grandma more than anything, she is amazing!!! My mother takes after her in so many ways that I hope I continue the love and acceptance that they both have shown to myself and countless others in my life.

I'll post a picture of the belly (as it is in fact getting larger-and annoying at times :)) as soon as Matt takes one of me :).
