Erin's latest Prego Appt.

I had a Doctor appointment on Monday the 14th. Same day as my friend Danielle's birthday and my Nephew, Daniel's too. Happy Birthday guys! The appointment went good. I am now a lot heavier and the most that I have ever weighted in my life. I am not saying how much. I guess the routine is, pee and a cup, give some blood and we'll see you in a month. I am really happy that everything is going so wonderful. My legs are not cramping any more...so really other than my ever stretching skin I am great. Next appointment I will find out what we are having. Which is in about five weeks. Then I can buy pink or blue. How exciting. I also got to hear the heart beat again...and the nurse found it really quick, so that means that everything is going great.
I am starting to feel fluttering inside, so I know that our baby is active already. This whole baby thing is still so surreal. I can't wait...time is going by so very fast too.

A quick heartbeat can indicate a GIRL baby. At least that is what our doctor told us when I was pregnant with Aliya! :) I am really happy for you guys. I love that we all have the blog thing to keep in touch.

Ohhh I hope what Amy says is true! I think you already know, but that is pretty cool still. I can't wait to find out, then I can start buying special stuff for him or her. YAY!!!

Love the mouse post! I would be feeling the same way, get that thing out of here. We have a TON of them around our house because of all the fields. Sounds like the pregnancy thing is going good, setting up the babys room is so much fun!

Glad your appointment went well! That is wonderful that you don't have those leg cramps anymore. What a pain!! That is great that they found the heartbeat so quickly. Let us know just as soon as you find out what you are having! We are excited to hear!!

No Excuses

June's Cooking Show! June always wants to cook and has been begging me to film her cooking. I had a million excuses, but I decided that June didn't care that she was in her jammies. She didn't care that the kitchen had bad lighting. She didn't even care what she made. She just wanted to have her mom film a video of her cooking in the kitchen (like she loves to do with me). So, with my IPhone in hand and all those excuses that I created I threw them out the window and decided to STEP UP and be the mom she wants and needs. We made the first video in 2017 and she loved it so much. We got busy and made more excuses. June didn't give up though. She wanted to do another video. So, on a school night I wanted to make banana bread and decided that we are already making it, so I might as well let June make it and film it. June loves to cook and watching her video's. I love her so much and I want her to do the things that she loves to do, so, I will continue to not ma...

Homemade

I am always trying to find ways to save money wherever I can. So, I decided to make some homemade laundry detergent. While I was visiting my parents in California I went to a Relief Society Birthday Party in there ward and that is where I got the great idea of making laundry detergent. I tried a couple loads from the sample I got and it was great...just like Tide. So, I made a huge batch. And it was super easy too. It calls for: 1 bar Fels-Naptha bar soap 2 cups 20 Mule Team Borax 2 cups Arm & Hammer washing soda You just grate the soap, like you would cheese. Mix all ingredients together and store in an airtight container. You only use 2 Tbsp. per load. (tsp. for HE washers) Everything was very inexpensive and much less than I would spend on regular Laundry detergent. I just wanted to share my money saving idea. XOXO-Erin

2 Years Old, Really?!

So, our little girl Cheryl Love turned 2 on January 5th! We actually have a 2 year old. Wow. It was so much fun. Cheryl loves monkey's and her new favorite movie is Jungle Book (if I let her she would watch it all day), so we decided to do a monkey themed birthday party. We had vines hanging from the ceiling and I even made a monkey cake. We had Bonnie my cousin and her daughters, Shaylee and Brooke and my cousin Adriann and her daughter Ivy and of course me, Nathan, CHERYL, and June. Plenty of people and poor Nathan the only boy. Oh well whats ya gonna do, huh? We had so much fun. We ate Jimmy Johns sandwiches(sorry Joi), and frozen banana Popsicles dipped in yogurt and they were really good. It is one of Cheryl's favorite snacks and healthy too. We played pin the banana on the monkey, without the blindfold. And of course ate cake and opened presents. Thanks to all who gave to Cheryl. Cheryl now has a big girl bed that she adores and loves to be in. Whew, I was so worried that...
