Baby Shower Part II

Last night was tons of fun. The girls form Relief Society threw me such a nice shower. Mila got tons of goodies and now it's time to starting writing Thank You Cards. All the people who were there last night are the best. Mila hasn't even made her grand debut but she is already so loved. This little girl is going to have many special friends. I'm really glad that I got to see some peeps form my old ward, that was a nice treat!

Thanks for everything guys!!

As soon as I get pics back I will make sure to post some.

This makes me Laugh!!!

I don't know how I stumbled upon this but I think it's great. I might have to purchase this for Mike. Hahaha Ha ha

Hey guys!! My Professor from Chapman University is doing a study on couples in romantic relationships. The purpose of this study is to examine howromantic partners engage in and

perceive ongoing, unresolved conflict with one another.

Romantic couples who participate will visit a location on-campus together
to engage in a brief discussion and then fill out a survey separately. (Mike and I filled them out at home and then I dropped of the study at her office, she will also let you email the study as an attachment if you can't make it down there) Participation should take approximately one hour ( It didn't take that long at all).

To qualify for this study, you and your romantic partner must meet the
following initial criteria:

1. You must both be 18 years of age.
2. You must both be in a romantic relationship (whether dating, engaged, or
married) with one another for at least 6 months.
3. You must both be able to visit Chapman University to participate in the
study together. (or email them to her)

To determine if you qualify for this study and to schedule an appointment
to participate, please email Dr. Jennifer Bevan at bevan@chapman.edu.

Piles and piles of laundry

It has taken me ALL day to finish all our laundry. I can't believe how bad I had let it get. The picture, I found on line, is supposed to represent how much laundry I had X's 4. It was an absolute joke how much there was. It probably doesn't help that I keep dirty laundry in 3 different places like our closet, our bathroom and our laundry room. If I only see one basket full I think to myself, "oh that's not to bad, I can deal with that later." I really need to stop thinking like that our else I'm going to find myself in that situation all over again. I am so exhausted!! I never want to see another basket of laundry/hangers ever again.

Reverse the pictue...and it's Mike and I

Ever since I became pregnant I have become a chronic snorer. I guess it's pretty normal in a pregnancy. It has something to do with higher levels of estrogen during a pregnancy that contribute to swelling in the mucous membranes lining the nose which can cause you to make more mucus ( I know gross, T.M.I).
Mike would wake me up in the middle of the night to tell me I was snoring (thanks boo). So I went out and bought some of the nose strips and they actually worked. I was wearing them every night and Mike was sleeping. The only problem I had was that the strips were so sticky that when I would take them off in the morning it was starting to peel pieces of my skin off...ouch!! So I decided to switch to the sensitive nose strips and those sucked!!! I would wake up in the morning and it would be stuck in my hair or stuck to my pillow case.

After loosing the battle with the nose strips I decided to buy a humidifier. The humidifier worked like a freakin CHARM!!! I had to fill it up every other night which was annoying but I had finally found something that worked until... I noticed that every time I was getting ready for bed I felt myself having trouble breathing. I was having to use my inhaler every night and sometimes I would wake up in the middle of the night grabbing for my puffer. I finally realized that the humidifier caused the condensation to build up on my window and had caused mold to grow around the casing. Mold is pretty much deadly to someone who has asthma and I thought I was dying.

So needless to say I am snoring again and Mike isn't sleeping (sorry Boo). Well, last night when I was fast asleep Mike got me good. He called my cell phone and left me a message of me snoring and had me listen to it this morning. It was BAD!!! I didn't think it was humanly possible to make those kinds of noises. My poor Mikey needs his sleep so I found myself walking into Target this afternoon and buying myself some of those nose strips that rip off my skin so my husband can sleep. I should probably win the Amazing Wife Award for that purchase. Ha Ha!!!

So Pleased to Announce ....

That we are having a GIRL!!! I am so excited to start shopping for my little mamas. These are some things that I have my eye on for her.
