Uncomfortable

I only have about 18 days left and I am extremly uncomfortable.  The baby is pretty low and I think her head is sitting on my pelvis bone, so whenever she moves her head I feel sharp pains.  Other than that it is just harder for me to do everyday things like getting my shoes and socks on, laundry and sleeping.  Ben is totally excited to have a newborn again of his very own and the kids can't wait to meet her.  Any day now will be good for me- I am tired of being pregnant and uncomfortable!

Baby's room

We finally got the baby's room done this weekend. The carpet HAD to be cleaned after Brandon made his mark, then Ben painted this one wall and we everything set up. I am relieved to have it done and excited for our baby girl to get here.

I am still feeling uncomfortable and not sleeping well, so anytime baby is ready she is more than welcome to make an appearance.

Week 33

Here are some amazing photos a friend took for me. Her website is www.monarch-photo.com. It was freezing outside, but well worth it. I am feeling good and experiencing all the typical things for being this pregnant- sleepless nights, restless leg syndrome, heartburn and peeing every half hour (to name a few).
We have not settled on a name yet, but right now we like Sophia Grace. It changes daily, so who knows what we'll end up with.

Snowboarding

Ben finally signed Brandon up for snowboarding lessons this last Saturday when we got a bunch of new snow. He did really well and tells everybody he is a natural. His lesson was about an hour then after some lunch he wanted to get back out there and practice some more.
When they got in the van to start home Ben asked him how he liked it and this was his response. They already have plans to go this week sometime when Ben gets off work.

Brandon's new room

We finally got Brandon to move downstairs so we could use his room for the new baby. This is the paint job he requested and it turned out very nice. He loves his cool new room and doesn't mind being downstairs all by himself.

Sara plays Basketball

Believe me I am just as surprised as all of you. She actually wanted to play and did a good job at her first game. She is not very aggressive, but when her coach told her to guard someone that's what she did.
After the game she said she really liked it and that she had a lot of fun. She even made a couple of baskets! Go Sara!

Melaleuca Christmas

This year for the Melaleuca Christmas party Kurt Bestor performed with the Teton Chamber Orchestra.  I have been excited for weeks, because Kurt Bestor is one of those people who amaze me.  Anyone who can compose music like he does just blow my mind.  I don't have much musical talent of any kind, but I love listening to music and it touches me deeply.   It was such a nice break from all the hustle and bustle and I actually got to talk with Ben for the first time this week.  Merry Christmas everyone!
