Funny Huggies Commercial

So, I was finally taught how to put a video on here. This is a commercial I saw several weeks ago, and wanted to put on here because I laughed so hard, and figured I wasn't the only one who would find this amusing. Enjoy!!

Finally the Quilt!

Alright, so Ive finally posted the pictures of the baby quilt that I've been talking about for what must be months now! The sad part is that it's not finished, and I'm actually going to have to take it apart and have my mom help me with it when she comes out in September! But the top is finished, and so is the bumper so....you atleast get an idea of what it looks like.

What else? I got a new calling in church, they've put me working with the Young Women. It wasn't s surprise to me, not after going to camp. I'm the secretary in the presidency, which may seem like it wouldn't be that much work but...they're finding ways to keep me busy. :) I have activities every tuesday and then of course meetings on sundays, and then any special activities the stake puts together, like Youth Conference in August. This week I was in charge of refreshments for tonight's activites, so I was up to my elbows in cookie dough and frosting yesterday. Man, I didn't taste any of it either, but I felt like I was in sugar shock all evening last night!

Erick got excepted as an ELT, which means we'll be in SC for a few more months. An ELT is basically a chemist. His duties will have something to do with testing the reactor's chemical reactions and what not. It takes a few more months of schooling, but it means better pay once he's qualified and better bonuses and stuff so that is good. And it means better hours while he is in this las leg of school so...I'm looking forward to that!

The pregnancy is going well....I'm tired and I hurt, mostly in the morning after trying, and I stress the word trying, to sleep the night through. That and I've been having Braxton Hicks contractions pretty increasingly lately, especially since saturday night. But all is well....six weeks or so to go! I can only hope Erick and I are ready for the challenge!

Well...I think that's all the news I have for now!

love,

Jen

Forever and A Day

I know...it probably seems like forever since the last time that I updated this page! I meant to do better when Erick's mom and sister were here but, I didn't end up having that much free time, and any free time I did have...well I was usually too exhausted to get on the computer!! But here I am...finally :)

Diana's and Corinthia's trip down here went really well, actually. I was a little nervous before they came but, Diana is a pretty easy person to get along with. I think I managed to get her seal of approval by the end of the trip, so that's a good thing! We did some major site seeing while she was here, and here are a few pictures from some of our various romps...

The first two are taken in the middle of a maze we did at a plantation we visited, and the last one is of me and Corinthia on the boat that took us out to visit Fort Sumter.

We also went to water-parks and downtown Charleston so, they got a lot of culture while they were down here and that was fun.

But I am exhausted!! I'm at 31 weeks now, and getting down to the wire. It's a little scary and nerve racking...but also pretty uncomfortable. LOL I know now the reasons why women can go through something they say is as painful as labor....you are so uncomfortable at the end of your pregnancy that you'd do just about anything to get that baby out of your body! And I still have 9 weeks to go!!! Yippee!! So here are some pictures fresh off the press of my 31 week body...hope it's not as scary to you all as it is to me!


Alright....I know...not much of an update! I'll try to get those pictures of my baby quilt up as soon as....well as soon as I take them! Love you all!!
