It's a Bird! It's a Plane!...No, it's a Really Swollen Pregnant Lady!



It's been a little while since I have complained about the wonderful changes that I am going through...so I thought I would catch everyone up on them. First things first, I have major unexplainable heartburn...if that's what you call it. I have polished a bottle of tums in a mere two weeks. Tums are like candy to me now. I also am swelling up everywhere...my ankles mostly. I am still trying to exercise every day and I must say I do feel much better when I do. Although it doesn't get rid of my heartburn/acid reflux crap. Everyone is asking me..."when are you due? You look like your going to pop right now!" Let me give you a little hint...do not say that to pregnant women...it is kinda rude. I feel like a house...so I don't need to hear that I look like one too! I feel like I have a long ways to go still. Really I do feel pretty good. I just like to complain.

hint of the day: suck on jolly rancher candy or something like htat. It will help with the heartburn adn the acid reflux..I had them both. They really really help..and taste better than tums...and try gum too. hang in there..it is all worth it!!

I feel for you, I really do. I had heartburn so bad with Aliya and I spent most nights sleeping on the chair in the living room cause it hurt way too bad to lie down. Hang in there. I got your cute Shower invite. I already RSVPed to Christine. Sure wish I would of had that jolly rancher tip. :)

Well I'm not going to give you any advice, because I don't have any yet. I think you're beautiful any size and I can't wait to see you and your wonderful belly! Hopefully the swelling doesn't hurt sweetie. It will be over soon enough and you will wonder where the time went. Miss you!

YAY I like your background and such too! Very cute. I am having a great day! I love the flowers you sent me! Thank you soooo much. Everyone's like - who sent you those? and I told them my little sister did. hehe They have Snake grass in them...remember when we used to play with that all the time in Springville? Did you have it put in there on purpose? I love them...and I love you!

Thanks again and talk to you soon!!!

Homemade Diaper Bag

I finally made a diaper bag for myself to replace the nasty old one I had. I am so far loving it a ton. I went from a pattern at first then scraped it and did my own design. I am happy with the result and now I am contemplating on making more and selling them. XOXO-Erin

Does anyone have a trank gun!

Sometimes I feel like a toddler, discovering my belly button for the first time. My belly button is so unrecognizable now. The only problem I am finding about being pregnant is all the body changes. I mean, weight! Being thin for 28 years then ballooning up in a matter of months has really scared me. I know, I know, everyone says that I will loose it all very quickly, but I still don't like it. At church I looked down at my feet and ankles and realized that I no longer have any ankles...they have morphed into cankles...Yuk! I was so discussed that I almost threw up. I wish I was one of those women who don't gain hardly anything and don't really look like they are pregnant until they give birth. Okay, enough of poor me! It's not hard to remind myself that I am pregnant though...I can't go an hour without her kicking me. There is life in there...I am so happy whenever I can feel her. I am happy really easily...just give me chips or ice cream and I am fine. Which isn&#

Our Baby Girl's Room

The Baby room is getting more attention now. I have decorated the walls and put new bedding in the crib. I thought about painting the walls but I think it looks better with the original cream color. I really didn't want to much going on in there. She is one lucky girl to have all this attention to her room. If you didn't notice from the pictures we have decided to name her Cheryl Love Christopherson. She is named after her Grandma Christopherson that has passed away from breast cancer. She was a amazing woman and so little Cheryl has some big shoes to fill. My next project is to make some cute little dresses for her. We can't wait for her arrival. XOXO-Erin
