I am a lover of all 80s music...there is a distinct sound of the 80s that you don't hear very much anymore (unless your listening to an 80s song that is). I was excited to hear this song from the band 'Black Kids' called 'I'm not gonna teach your boyfriend how to dance with you' Am I wrong or is the sound of the 80s coming back?
In other news...I decided that I would post of a picture of myself. This is me at almost 18 weeks. I have also recently started to feel the baby moving, which is really exciting. However, I am ready to have a little more of a pregnant belly so at least people can explain why I am always eating :) Lets just say once this pregnancy is over I am swearing off cereal and toast!
So this last weekend Andy had Friday off, to make up for all the time he was out in the field and away from home. I love his days off and we took the grand opportunity to spend 8 dollars to attend the Kentucky state fair! Granted I am use to the days of my childhood where I faithfully attended the Eastern Idaho State Fair in Blackfoot Idaho...what a gem of a place. My favorite part? Tiger ears! For those of you Idahoans you know what I am talking about. Anyway....Andy and I had a fun time at the fair. I forgot that since Andy and I don't like the sickening carnival rides, all you do is walk around and eat greasy food...chicken nuggets please. We enjoyed ourselves and you better believe I was POOPED and crashed for a little over 2 hours when we got home. Here is a special picture of Andy in front of the fountains! Wheres a picture of me you ask, I am not so photogenic these days...but sometime I will post a pick of me and the ever growing stomach!
Also, as many of you know...I am a big fan of the Hills. Call me pathetic or even immature...but I can't stop watching the drama. If you aren't a fan you can skip this part...or heck...take a peek, you may become a groupie like me. Here's a little preview of what this season holds!
Lastly, I found this sweet link on a friends blog. Just to give you an idea, here is what our child might look like.
First of all, let me just say how great it is to finally have my husband home and out of the field! Sheesh! He was gone for almost a full two weeks and I missed him terribly. He also made a quick trip out to Utah to help his brother Greg drive his moving truck across the country. Greg and Allice will be making their home in Clemson, SC so Greg can attend graduate school! I am excited to have them so close (yes an 8 hour drive is close!).
Unfortunately Andy also caught some sort of flu bug and was out (and I mean out) for part of the afternoon and all night Monday night. I decided to play it safe and sleep on the couch...heaven knows I throw up enough without the flu on top of that. How miserable! Luckily though, I am starting to feel so much better! I hardly ever feel sick anymore...in fact the only time I feel sick is after I take my vitamin! With food, with out food, in the morning or at night, with tums or with out.... I can rarely keep it down! Any suggestions??? I hate taking them because I am scared...that's now how it should be right?
I am also getting super excited for the Holidays..I can't help but burn holiday candles and watch good holiday movies like Elf. I think its a disease! Anyway since Andy will be gone for the full month of November to Fort Erwin, CA (yes he will be gone for Thanksgiving...isn't that nice?) I have decided to hopefully spend the month in Idaho with my family! I can't wait for that...but even before then...next month on the 11th of September, my little brother gets home from his mission! I can't believe how quickly time flies by! Andy and I will be making a short weekend trip out to Idaho to welcome him home and we can't wait to see all our family!
As I side note...I finished the final book in the Twilight series...Breaking Dawn. I am not going to lie...I may have taken a peek at the ending just to see if it was worth it for me to continue reading...and of course I loved it! To me it was a great ending to the series! Next comes the movie in December. Can't wait.
