Movie and Dinner with Anne and Steve

Wednesday.

Had fruit loops for breakfast for the first time in a long while!!!!

Went to see Meet the Mormons. It was a documentary that explains what mormons do, what mormons are. I thought it was interesting that they weren't so much talking about how the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints' faith or church life, but it was about their regular daily things. 

What they do for a living, how they feel about their family. Which makes sense, cause for me, this church is all about family, and being able to be together forever.

After the movie, we went to have some chinese food at this place called Golden Jade

That was a lot of food!! Yummy thought! We all ended up taking home half the portion they gave us....

We got a fortune cookie at the end of the meal, and guess what mine said?!

Yes, so it pretty much told me to shut my mouth and get on with it.






insipiring. really.

Doctor's checkup #5

Doctor's appointment at 9:45 in the morning. Yes, Becki sets these early morning appointments like it's nothing. Well. it is!!!

I got ready, and went upstairs before 9, and she was there. SHE WAS ALREADY THERE!! Becki Westergard, EARLY?!?!?! There's something wrong when that happens....Okay, I will not get into this any further because I still need her around. haha

I'd been feeling REALLY ready to pop this Little Godzilla out of me. He'd been kicking, head-budding, karate-chopping, whatever people do to move around and hurt people, he was doing. My stomach had been feeling heavier than ever, and pain comes and goes, and I for sure thought he was coming out sometime soon.........


NOT EVEN CLOSE


Dr. Cardona looked at me, and she said "Yuri, I can't even feel you! " I'm going, are you freakin' kidding me?!?! You are telling me that I might actually have to wait til my due date to get him out?!?!

So I was a little bummed walking out of the office with Becki, but the rest of the day was fun.

Since we still had no idea when Godzilla was coming out, the 2 of us went out for a little bit of last minute shopping. Walmart, Gordmans, Babysrus, TJMax....all sorts of places.

I think we got everything to take care of this baby except for an Ergobaby. Yushi and I were talking, and came to a conclusion that we wanted a DarkBrown one.

I still need to do a little bit of research on this thing tho.

We stopped at In and Out to get some burgers for lunch.

Mmmmmm...Good burgers :)

Later after coming home, I found this video on the web. This made me change the way I see this whole experience.

This is what I posted on Facebook after seeing this video↓

Okay, so you all know I have been wanting to get Godzilla out of me as quick as I can for the past few days. I saw this video today, and it just hit me that this little dude has been through a lot, and he is the one doing all the work. I'm just carrying him around. It got me thinking. If he is willing to go through ALL of this to come out, why not let him do it in his own timing? It's not like there is much I can do to speed up the process anyways, but he will come out. And when he does, all I can do is welcome him with open arms, and will never let go. So, for now, I will enjoy every blow to my ribs, every discomfort I get when I change position, my swollen feet, and how I can't walk at a normal speed like anybody else. Just for now.

I will see you in a couple weeks. And I just hope you don't come out and say, "O, man, I get HER for a mom? I wanted that other lady in the next room!!"

Dinner with Kinneys and Andre

Monday

Leah and Jeff took me out to go to Holy Smokes for dinner.

THE RIBS WERE AWESOME!!!!!!

It was Leah, Jeff, Andre and me. the 4 of us. We started talking about scuba diving, and where they have went as military and the exotic experiences they have had....man, I need to get into that ocean and start swimming!!!

We went fairly early, and came home fairly early. So, when I came back, Anne and Steve hadn't gotten dinner yet. Yes, that is how early we were!

I did a little bit of work, and was in bed by 12:30. I had a early day the next day. Doctor's appointment!!

Dinner with the Clements

Sunday.

Chris Henley came and talked in Sacrament Meeting in our ward. His talk was very interesting and entertaining. I got talking to Julie and Chris after the meeting for a while, and I went home right after to take a nap.

Chris and Julie always tells me that they will give me a ride home, and I am always refusing their offers. Chris always says he is offended when I say NO to him. Yes, I take pleasure in offending him. can you tell?

It was a nice 5minute walk home from church. The wind was a little chilly, but the sun was out and it felt nice :)

Greg came to get me at a little before 17:00. We had dinner together at the Clements.

Susan, John, Dave, Natalie, Bella, and Greg. We had dinner downstairs, and after, the men soon went upstairs, and the girls stayed down. We were talking, talking, talking for a while, and joined the boys upstairs. We had dessert, and started talking. Before we knew, it was getting late, so we called it a night.

Sam's Baptism and Jerry's Wedding

Saturday.

This was a REAL packed day!!!

Sam was getting baptized, so we left the house before 8:00. Went to Logan and saw him get baptized. Haggards, Henleys, Westergards, and Hadleys were there. Went to the Ballinghams afterwards, and had brunch with the HUGE group. It seems like the Ballinghams are having a party EVERY SINGLE WEEKEND!!!

It was soooo crazy, I dodn't get any pictures.......shame on me ;(

It is always so much fun to see all the Hadley grandkids get together, their family tie is so much stronger than any other family I know.

We left the Ballinghams at around 11:30, rushed home, and rushed over to the Farr's for the next big event.

Jerry and Anilee's Wedding!!!

They were giggling through the entire ceremony, and the kids Travis, and Isac were real cute. I got to see Jon, and Andre, and that was really nice after all these years :)

2nd day with Dave and Natalie

Got ready for the day, and headed out for Breakfast.

I just HAD to take this picture of the panel I found in the bathroom...

We waited a little bit, but it was well worth it! The food was AMAAAZINGGGG!!!

Went out to Nordstrom Rack, and all 3 of us came out with 2pairs of shoes! What are the odds of that?! After that I found another favorite shop!

Gordmans!!  http://www.gordmans.com/

They have home things, kids clothes, grownup clothes, maternity clothes, toys, and food!! And the store is cute!!!

After we hit these 2 stores, we realized that we have been out too long, so we rushed home to go let Bella out.

Dave and Bella stayed home, and Natalie and I went out to get our nails done.

The massage and relaxing time.......Ooooo it was so needed to my Swollen feet!!!

After that, we hit Ross, Dress Barn, and a few more stores.

Took home some Bajios and ate yet another delicious meal.

Night over at Dave and Natalie's

Dave came and picked me up at 14:00. We went out to Luch at Roosters since I told him I have not had enough Burgers since I got here. I had the Gorgonzola cheeze burger, and it was AWESOME!!!!

We stopped by at Weber state and took a little walk. I didn't realize how big the duck pond was!!

After that, we went and ran some errands and headed back to their house. I watched him do his radio show, and Natalie came home around 10:00, so we had a delicious home made pizza dinner!!
