Valentine's Day and Colleen Comes to Stay!

Sheehan's Mom came to stay with us for a while with her dog Pollyanna. It has been fun to have her around and see her and Sheehan together. Our cat thinks it own Pollyanna though, he has done a couple lion attacks at her since she has been here. The dog won't look at the cat and will quickly leave the room when Bagheera is around. We find it pretty entertaining.

Here I am at 29 weeks. I can't believe we are down to the single digits now and things are going so fast!

We took Sheehan's Mom, Colleen out for her birthday for a new experience at our favorite restaurant, Tucanos. Devin and Julianne came along to join us. We all loved it as usual! I think I blog more about that place than anything else....Afterward we walked around the Riverwoods and went to the Provo Beach Resort to play some games. Then we came back to the house to watch Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. Half of us fell asleep immediately. We are going to have to watch it again when we are not so exhausted from full bellies and playing games.

We had such a good time for Valentine's Day. We had Devin, Julianne, Shay, Becky (with Eva & Nefi), and Colleen for some good food and games! We had a ravioli dinner and Julianne made a red velvet bunt cake. We played a couple games all together. My favorite was the Valentine's Day Kiss-Off. The ladies put on red lipstick and tried to fit as many kisses as they could on their husband's faces in 30 seconds, whoever fit the most kisses won.

It's been a great 2012 so far and we are looking forward to our last few weeks just the two of us. We can't wait until little Lincoln comes.

 Devyco and Juliaane came over to watch Conference or something with us. Reeford is just a cute little puppy!

 Sheehan surprised me on Easter with a trail to some treats and new rocking recliner for when the baby arrives. It was so SWEET!

 One day I saw a cat stuck and crying up on the neighbors roof. I made Sheehan help the kitty get down. It was a success. He's good to me about my love for animals. :)

Pregnancy Progress Photos

Here are the progressive pictures that I have so far. I just realized I never posted all of them.

November 27, 2011 19 weeks

I fell while trying to get in the shower and banged up my legs pretty good. I had some nice bruises on my calves but didn't hit anywhere else. Just hurt my arms and legs. Needless to say we ordered a bath mat for the tub so I don't do the splits unexpectedly again. I'm getting too pregnant and off balance to maintain any shred of coordination I had.

This is a cute little gift basket that I was so proud of after putting together for Brother Tippetts for helping us clean up our basement flood. I just had to show it somewhere....
Here are some gems. Its no wonder I got so big. I was obsessed with smores.

Bagheera

We got a cat! Sheehan wouldn't go for a dog (yet!....) so we got a cat. His name is Bagheera cause he looks like the black panther in the Jungle Book. He was free and mostly stays outdoors. He is all black except for a little bit of white on his chest and belly. When he is not outside he spends his time following us around the house. He likes to sprint up and down the stairs. He likes to do some yoga moves I'm pretty sure I did at prenatal yoga a few weeks ago. He likes to roll the toilet paper which makes Sheehan very upset.... : ) hahaha. He killed a huge spider (which is one of the primary reasons I wanted a cat). He accidentally flung the spider up in Sheehan's face while Sheehan was watching him kill it. They both took off running then came back to finish the job after they got themselves together. We like him.

These pictures are of him in one of his favorite positions to hang out and sleep in. In yoga it's called the butterfly pose. Namaste everybody...
