WE FOUND OUR HOUSE!

Woo hoo! We put an offer on this wonderful house in Meridian. Then had to up our offer because of other offers. WE WON and got an awesome deal. We could not be more thrilled! I cannot stop flipping through decor magazines, blogs & websites. I search it all. So far I have some pretty exciting things planned for our new place. Last week we were in Salt Lake visiting Jake's family and scored an awesome couch for $250 on KSL.com It's perfect and in awesome condition... looks brand new. We also stopped by Ikea as well and found these wardrobe frames that we can use along with our closet. I'm thinking this will let us get rid of our dresser and we can gain a lot more space in our bedroom. The plan is to Close on this house in about 3 weeks. Just enough time to get things set up and ready for Little Mr. to come! I'M SO EXCITED!

Right at this moment Jake and I are right smack in the middle of the LOST series. We just started season 3 and we're so addicted that it's just ridiculous. I say this because It's on now and it's getting intense!!!

Pictures coming soon!

A few things I've loved these last six months...


L'occitane Almond Supple Skin Oil. It wasn't cheap... but I'm convinced It's working. No stretch marks yet.



Bare Minerals foundation. I started using it when I first began losing my tan and my normal foundation no longer matched my skin color. My skin has been clear ever since. Love Love Love.


Carmelized onions... particularly on a hot dog, but wonderful by themselves. Definitely a weird pregnancy craving.


IcyHot. I seriously carry it in my purse. I don't know what I'd do without it.


Heating Pad. This and my Icy-hot cream has been the only cure for my awful back pain that I've had basically my entire pregnancy. Temporary relief but such a blessing.


Tootie Fruities. Breakfast of Champions.


My beloved Bella Band. Maternity Jeans are so not something I love. With this I wear comfortable regular person jeans, a size bigger than normal, completely unzipped and unbuttoned and it's wonderful.


Last but certainly not least...I love my Jakester too. He rubs my back, rubs my feet, and we've conquered a couple different TV series now.. when we're feeling lazy and/or I'm not feeling good.


As promised... here's momma. 25 weeks and growing.

Sweet baby boy is now kicking so hard that I can see it from time to time. I think he especially loves water. Every time I take a bath he moves. And every night right as I'm going to sleep he kicks lots. It's the best way to end my day and helps me get to sleep.. I feel like it's his way of checking in with me so I won't worry and when I tell him I love him it's how he says he loves me too.
