Little junior miss is 23 weeks

How little junior miss is growing: From babycenter.com:
Turn on the radio and sway to the music. With her sense of movement well developed by now, your baby can feel you dance. And now that she's more than 11 inches long and weighs just over a pound (about as much as a large mango), you may be able to see her squirm underneath your clothes. Blood vessels in her lungs are developing to prepare for breathing, and the sounds that your baby's increasingly keen ears pick up are preparing her for entry into the outside world. Loud noises that become familiar now — such as your dog barking or the roar of the vacuum cleaner — probably won't faze her when she hears them outside the womb.

Oh! I feel like our little girl is just growing way to fast! As big as a mango, I'm a proud momma! And I've tried the dancing thing.... nothing yet. Maybe our baby is already embarrassed by my dance moves and won't move in fear I'll keep dancing.


Here I am at 23 weeks: I feel like my stomach has doubled in size this last week. I've gained about 5 lbs in just a week, hopefully that's the baby growing not me.
How I'm feeling: I've been feeling good. Still get sick about 2 times a week, but nothing like a couples months ago. I can't eat toast especially in the mornings, I have no idea why. I still get really tired and for some reason my monday and wednesdays are the worst. Maybe cause Kay and I sit by this water fall thing when we study after class and; it pretty much knocks me out. This last week I haven't felt the baby move as much but I do every once in a while. I'm excited for when Kay can feel it outside the belly. Our friends gave us some super cute clothes, which made me really excited and makes it feel more real. One of the things they gave us was 2 little socks one white that says Jordan on it and the other is pink with the Jordan sign on it, they are way awesome! Our little girl is going to be ballin'! : )

McKay is doing great! Still getting a lot of pregnancy symptoms right along with me. Except for the growing belly. I don't think that's in McKay's future, even if he tried. He still laughs at me sometimes when he see me. He's still trying to get used to the belly thing. I too laugh when I see a reflection of my belly, but mine is more of a scared/exciting laugh, where as McKay's is a crazy is this happening/excited laugh. Either way we are both both doing good and well laughing.

Here's McKay getting ready to go job shadow! He's so cute! Love ya sweety

I did two posts! so make sure you look at the one below!

Super Mar!

I tittled this post Super Mar, because that's what everyone in high school chanted during his basketball games (referring to McKay and his awesome 3s).
McKay had a game saturday night and did awesome! Like always. He had 29 points and 8 assists. He was 7 for 10 on 3s and a couple of them were back to back. The crowd just kept saying gezz as I just proudly smiled and took videos! His whole team is awesome, a good bench and all. So they won! McKay has a game on saturday is going to be on internet through BYU-I website. So if you get a chance tune in.
Here's a picture of some of McKay's fan club. Thanks for coming guys! We really apprreciate the support!



McKay's cousin Jeri with her husband Jon, & 3 kids

Abby, Spencer, and Leann (they are awesome!)

And here are a few awesome videos of McKay, taken by yours truly!

McKay's # 23.

In this video He steals it and gets an assist. Then when the other team gets the ball, he rebounds off a missed shot and goes down and hits a 3. Which he makes look so simple!

In this video at the very beginning, he has an assist and then the other team can't seem to get the ball back in without our team steeling it away and shooting. I think it happens twice. (sorry kind of a hard video to see)

School. 22 weeks and 126 days

22 weeks and 126 days
Technically tomorrow I am 22 weeks, but I don't think I'll change much from now til then.
I'm feeling pretty good. I still feel tired and sick every once and a while, especially if I eat fast, which is like every morning. That's when I usually get sick. 126 days left! I really feel like it's going by fast. I think being in school helps.

Sometimes when I'm walking around I "forget" I'm pregnant and that I'm starting to get a belly, then I'll walk by something and see my reflection and it takes me back for a sec. I always assumed that your belly would feel really heavy as it starts sticking out. But I really don't feel like I have 13 oz baby in there + weight that comes with pregnancy! But I guess 13 oz is still pretty small. And I'm sure many of you women would say, "just what til your full term, then you'll feel like your carrying a lot of weight around." I am just grateful it is somewhat gradual.
 I haven't felt the baby move as much since my last appiontment a couple weeks ago. I'm hoping shes just sleeping or turned in a way that makes it hard to feel her movement. I went through a period of time where I was constantly feeling feeling her move, so sometimes it worries me. Maybe I was just mistaking her earlier movements with gas or something. : )
School and life

School and life are going good. McKay and I are taking 4 classes together, which has been awesome! McKay still drives the little kiddos around in the bus each day. : ) He also refs competitive boys basketball games up on campus. McKay is on 3 basketball teams! yes 3 I really don't know how he finds time for it. competitive, a boys league one where you pick your team, so it's a basically a bunch of friends from Montana, and a co-ed team with me, which has been a lot of fun. He had a league game last night and he was on FIRE! Which honestly isn't really rare, but it's fun to listen to the other team talk about how good he is. I just sit and smile and say "that's my husband!". Sorry no pics, I was doing the scoreboard which us wives are always asked to do. And I don't think I'll ever do it again! It was a type I had never used before and if you do one thing wrong or if you don't get the point up there in less then a half a sec after a shot was made, players FREAK out on you. That's why they have someone who writes it in the books you inpatient people! Sarah knows exactly what I'm talking about. Her and I yelled at a few people last night to zip it! I think we can laugh about it now. But It was so stressful I was afraid of going into labor. After the game I think a few players felt bad and said I could slap them in face... I was very tempted.

So in other words my days of dreaming to be a professional score keeper for the NBA are dead.

Valentines Weekend Trip!

So on our trip we....ate at in-n-out! Pretty good!

 Watched BYU vs Utah! Pretty fun game- Utah got Jimmered (a little bit) in a sold out game.

 Bought our baby girl her first pair of shoes!!

 This picture was from one of my basketball games. (Not part of the trip)

 And just a shot of the in-n-out burger! Looks like a heart attack to me! lol



IT'S A......

GIRL!!!! We are so excited! I'll post some ultrasound pics later it takes a long time to get it onto the computer. But The appiontment went really good. The doc said nothings wrong and everything looks good! Which is very comforting. It's time to get going on that Nursey! And figuring out a name for our little junior miss (That's her name until we figure that out)

Todays the day!

McKay and I have been having a count down for about the past month for our big appiontment! We are going to be celebrating all weekend! How? you ask... Well with those 2 sheets of paper on the lower right side of the fridge........

 We are going to Provo to watch a BYU cougar game! Or as McKay calls the it, "Jimmer Fredette show"

Can't you tell he's so excited! More like he is done with me taking so many pictures. This is what he gave me when I said "show me how excited you are!"... 

woohoo! Cougars game! What's that you say! This is how excited I am.

 This is me last night at 20 weeks. Do I still look like I ate one too many tacos mom?

 So the big appiontment is in about 30 mins! McKay and I are so excited! So last time to vote Girl or Boy?!

 From the beginning of the pregnancy McKay always would say, "I hope it's a boy" But as we get closer we both think it's a girl and would excited with either one. Though I know McKay would be very happy if it was a boy. We will let everyone know as soon as we find out!



The bump

This is when I was about 11 weeks along. I was pretty proud of this little bump.

 I was about 13 weeks here. Forgive me for the first 2 pics, I kind of have a forced smile in these, if I remember right I was getting sick just moments before.

This is my most updated picture. I am about 17 weeks here. I know there's still not much here, but it feels like a lot to me.  I had just bought my first pair of Maternity jeans and shirt. McKay laughs at me every time I wear them. (I think he jealous and secretly wishes they made some for men) : ) I LOVE maternity jeans! I wasn't really looking forward to wearing maternity clothes but, I think I might wear these when I am not pregnant... ok maybe just during the holidays. That's ok right? And the hat I'm wearing is one My sister Jess made for me for my birthday. I love it! Can you believe she made it! I am now 19 weeks and feeling pretty good. I still get sick a few times a week and tired but not anything like I was a month ago. I need to get another updated pic. I'm pretty sure I'm even bigger then I am in this picture

 And heres the Handsome dad to be. My heart skips a beat everytime I think of him being a dad! He is so great with kids and I know he will be an amazing dad. There's no one else I would pick to go through this experience with. He has been so helpful already. He drags me out of bed most days to go to school (I'm still feeling really tired and can never get enough sleep). He also is so willing to help clean the house and cook dinner. And He ALWAYS does the dishes after dinner, sometimes he will let me help , but most of the time he won't let me. I love him soo much!
