Robin Williams - You've never had a friend like me

Two days ago at work my client told me about the passing of Robin Williams. I didn't believe him at first. Robin made so many classics. To name some...

Hook
Jumanji
Good morning Vietnam
Genie in Aladdin
Mrs. Doubtfire
Mork and Mindy
Popeye
Flubber
Dead Poets Society
Birdcage
 and many many others

 I think what also makes it hard is because everyone loves Robin Williams. I honestly don't know one person that doesn't like him. He is going to be greatly missed. Thanks for all the laughs!

Loving my stretch marks

Alright today I'm going to talk about the hated stretch marks. Its just my views and feelings on the subject and hope you enjoy reading.

At first I thought stretch marks were gross. They reminded me of those grass imprints you get when you sit on the grass for too long but purple and didn't go away. I didn't find them attractive and I didn't want one! Load me up on cocoa butter, coconut oil and any home remedy from Pinterest because I wasn't gonna get even one! Yeah right.

At 20 weeks I had one maybe two on the sides of my hips. Very small. Now that I'm 27 weeks I have gotten A LOT more. They are under my belly button area but they are there. I'm not sure if this is a normal area for stretch marks or not but that is where mine tend to be. Last night before my shower I noticed that they were in the shape of a heart. Guess what? I actually loved it! Hopefully that's not TMI but just the fact that my body can create a human is amazing! But seriously think about it. It can create a brain, a heart, fingers toes, etc its just blows in mind we have that ability.

Don't get me wrong I'm still going to use my lotions,oils and things but if they don't fade I'm not going to worry about it. I'm going to own it because bringing a beautiful, sweet loving child into the world is more important then some silly stretch mark. So with all that said I'm loving my stretch marks!

Just my thoughts on this lovely Monday. Hope you all have a great day!

These are a few of my favorite things

Rain drops on roses and whiskers on kittens....today I'm going to blog about a few of my favorite things. All pregnancy related. #fridayfavorites Enjoy! 

1) Baby laughs- Seriously guys I can't help but smile when a baby laughs. It's so cute and you can't help but be in a good mood. There is just something about it. Can't wait to hear our little guys giggle :) 

2) Baby clothes- This is a dangerous one!  Mini man clothes get me every time. They are so tiny and so cute! It's hard to not resist it's cuteness! 

I mean guys look at these mini shoes? We had to get them so we did :)

3)Baby kicks- Love them unless it's 3 AM and I'm trying to sleep. But its fun to think he can react to music and our voices. Always crazy when he does it's like "IT'S ALLLIVE!" Nuts to think there is an actual human inside. 

Those are just some of mine. What are your guises #fridayfavorites? 

Pregnancy Update

So I haven't been updating the blog on the pregnancy but I have been writing it all down in a journal. For me every little thing is new and exciting but I don't wanna bore you with all 6 1/2 months of details. But I will give you a quick update right now. I promise I will keep it short and sweet.

Baby boy is the most active little man ever! He kicks like crazy and I love it. Unless I'm trying to sleep. Apparently 3 AM is a great time to kick Mom! I'm usually up by 6 AM  to eat and I stay up. Clothes are getting much harder to wear. I'm growing out of everything! It's a love hate relationship really. Nothing fits but that also means shopping! My charlie horses have calmed down. Thanks Goodness! No one told me about them so they came on as a complete surprise. They are totally normal and they totally suck. Swelling depends on they day. Days its down I can still wear my wedding ring but other days my fingers feel like bananas. Speaking of bananas I eat...like I swear every hour. But if  I'm not eating I'm in the bathroom. They weren't kidding when they said you pee ALL the time when pregnant. No lie there. Not 100% set on a name. It changes....like a lot. Well there you have it. Little update on baby boy and Momma!

There you go guys! Have a fabulous rest of summer!

Happy 4th of July!

Our fourth started with the Provo Freesom Festival. We caught the end of the parade then walked around to all the booths. Of course we had to get a Texas Twister! 

It was not even noon and was getting super hot! The drink was perfect to cool us off. We were getting hungry and was craving some BBQ so we headed to this place called Cubby's. We have seen it before but have never actually went. And OMG it was DEVINE!! We both had a dragonslayer burger and buffalo bleu cheese fries which are our new weakness! 

We then went home and took a very well needed nap and watched some Cake Boss: Next Great Baker. After that we headed to Spanish Fork to see Shelly and Jay. Patrick was heading out for work so we saw him just for a little. We then headed to my parents in Draper. Grandpa Triplett was there and it was so nice to visit him! Teresa and Emma were sick so we didn't see Teresa but Emma was feeling better and spent some time with us. Lincoln and Phoenix are there while Natalie and Sheridan are fishing up in Idaho. We love seeing those kids they are adorable! We took Jake,Anya,Lincoln and Phoenix over to the near by park as well. Pheonix loved the swings! We then all hung out outside and watched the Bevan's shoot off fireworks. They definately went to Wyoming haha! We headed home so we could beat the Stadium of Fire traffic. On our way home we probably saw 30 firework shows at once. It was so cool! Overall it was a great fourth! 

It's a......

BOY!!! 

Yesterday we found out the gender for baby Webster! Teresa and Shelly were there as their Mother's Day gifts. Our apt was at 11:30 with this awesome tech Kayla. She layed me down and got me all prepped and John held my hand on the other side. She was looking at a small computer screen which is wired to a big screen we were all looking at. She measures his head first,takes a look at his side profile then down to his feet and then BAM all manhood exposed! He wasn't shy at all! She then went step by step in great detail each part of his little body. Hemispheres of his brain,heart chambers,arteries in the umbilical cord, hips,kidneys you name it! She took lots of pictures and was very detailed and answered all our questions. Best part was when we first looked at his side profile he was air fist pumping at us! Haha so funny! He is 12 oz with a heartbeat at 141 bpm. He is measuring 2 days earlier then we thought but the doctor (Dr Thorp) said we will keep 11/10 as the same due date unless it becomes a 10 day difference. He does have a small calcium buildup on his little heart on one chamber which is an indication of possible Down Syndrome. All my blood/lab results have been normal so that chances of him having Down Syndrome is 1/800. Down Syndrome or not we love him the same! During the ultrasound he was super wiggly! Very active and kept crossing his little ankles and fist pumping! Sssoooo cute! No matter what gender John would be happy but now that he is having a SON he is even more pumped! We are so excited and can't wait for November to come! 

Doesn't he have the cutest nose ever! We sure do love you baby boy!
