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.
XOXO-Erin

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!!!

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...

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...

Eternal Role

Today's Family: The Eternal Role of Mothers click on link to read the article http://www.lds.org/study/prophets-speak-today/unto-all-the-world/the-eternal-role-of-mothers?lang=eng I love this paragraph about mothers. "Among the most important roles of a mother is the call to nurture, Elder Ballard says. “A mother’s nurturing love arouses in children, from their earliest days on earth, an awakening of the memories of love and goodness they experienced in their pre-mortal existence,” he declares. “Because our mothers love us, we learn, or more accurately remember, that God also loves us.”" "Mommy, I love you!", Cheryl says as she wakes me up at 6:30 in the morning. "I love you too, honey", I say, as I hug her tight and never want to let her go. I will take those moments any chance I get, whether it's 6:30 in the morning or in the middle of the night while I am sick and holding my sick child. I have never felt that I truly found my...
