Happy Birthday Christian!

Yesterday was Christian's birthday and today is Tim's birthday so Heidi and I threw them a birthday party last night. The theme was a "Head's Up" party and we had people dress up from the neck up. I made hats for Christian and me. Also, there was a request to put a picture of me and my belly on the blog. It's not very appealing nor do I know how to pose for these kind of pictures but here it is!

SURPRISE!!

Things have been falling into place so smoothly for Christian and I. It has been such a blessing. On Wednesday, August 27th, I went to see the perinatologist again and my blood clot was pretty much gone! This was very good news but unfortunately the problem will not be solved until I actually give birth. However, my doctor said that I was aloud to do more things during the day. I asked if I could travel because all our family is in St. George. She said YES! She even said I could spend a whole week as long as I followed her rules. So Christian and I left the doctors office, got the oil changed in our car, threw some clothes is a suit case and took off for St. George that day. I have to admit, I am more of a list and planning sort of girl but the spontaneous events are fun every once in a while. We did not tell any of our family and just showed up to their homes that Wednesday! It was so fun to see their faces and my sister even started screaming when she opened the door! Since it was a holiday weekend we got to stay until the following Monday! Probably one of the longest vacations we have had since our honeymoon. We got the opportunity to go to some of the siblings school games. I got to see my sister, Tianna, play volleyball and boy is she good. Then we got to see Christian's brother, Stephen, play football which he had two interceptions that game! It was an amazing weekend! Thanks family for being spontaneous with us!
