Sorry all. I put up a name poll so everyone could put in their two cents on what our baby should be named but the poll is being retarded. As far as we could tell people weren't able to actually vote. If anyone knows why it's not working please let me know and I'll put up a new poll.
In the mean time, vote on the belly. It rocks!
Have a great one!

Belly Quiz
So we thought we'd make a game out this months belly shot. Take a look at all of the photos and guess which one is really me at 30 weeks. Good luck!
A. Dang, I look good!
B. Padded belly?
C. Is this a real baby or food baby?
D. Ughhhh! Are they both having kids?
Well, if you guessed picture C than you would be correct. Picture A is me sucking in (painful by the way) Picture B is me pushing out (equally painful as Piture A) and Picture D is, you guessed it, The Man pretending to be pregnant. Congratulations of you guessed right. Better luck next time if you were wrong.

AZ Trip
Okay, I've been home for almost two weeks from Arizona and I haven't let anyone know how awesome it was. The trip itself seemed to go by fast. It was awesome to see all of the family and the baby shower was a blast. A huge shout out to Beth, Emily and Nicci for throwing the greatest baby shower of all time and a big thank you to mom for letting it be at her house. The food spread was HUGE and this pregnant lady was in food heaven. I am pretty sure that I ate my weight in spinach dip and cheesecake. Mmmmmm. It was awesome to see so many old friends that I don't get to normally see and it was GREAT to see all of my sisters together without the kids. All in all the trip was good, though I was glad to get my pregnant body back to my own bed.
One more suggestion for those of you in AZ. Nate and Darcy took me to Matt's Big Breakfast in Phoenix. It is the smallest diner I have ever been to but the portions are huge and the price is right. If you go, go early in the morning because the wait can top and hour. It's was delicious and I suggest it to anyone. A giant thanks to Nate and Darcy for breakfast and fun visit!

Week of activities
It's been awhile since I blogged but nothing is really going on. I spent a good portion of the week cleaning up from one trip and planning another. We amde it back from Big Daddy D and Mama M's but a week later I was leaving for AZ. I could never be a full time traveler, I do not like unpacking in order to do laundry and repack. Alas, both trips are worth the venture so I'll survive this one time.
This week wasn't all that exciting. I went with my young women to do a service activity for a family in our ward. There is a dear friend Stephanie who is having triplets and her husband is having a hard time keeping up with the yard work between working and taking care of his very prego wife. For mutual this week we went and pulled gobs and gobs of monster weeds from the yard. I kid you not, these weeds were alive and attacking. They had these spikes that cut through normal gloves so many of us were wearing two pairs of gloves and one of them needed to be leather. They were vicious. One thing I learned about that night is that pregnant women should not pull weeds. Holy cow did my body complain all night. It made me feel like I was 80 years old (sorry grandma I know you're still spry but I probably won't be). I am pretty sure that I will never do that again unless I decide that walking is no longer a necessity and I won't need my fingers for typing or piano playing. Maybe I could figure out how to do those activities with my toes. hmmm
This weekend was also our anniversary. As my gift to The Man (and let's be honest to myself) I planned an evening that started at a fancy steakhouse. :) Oh my deliciousness. Never did a chunk of cow taste so good. I did feel retarded though because I had prepped myself by asking The Man what kind of steak I would want so I knew what to order but I completely forgot that I was supposed to tell them how I wanted it cooked! I didn't know anything about cooking temperatures because all chicken is cooked the same. I want it not mooing anymore but not charcoal either. She asked me and I looked at The Man like a deer in the headlights. He just laughed at me, oh well. His suggestion was perfect and the meat disintegrated in my mouth. No chewing required. Mmmmmmmm After that we went and saw the movie Baby Mama. Holy funny! I'm not sure that the grandmothers in our lives would like it but there were many lines that had me rolling on the ground. To wrap up the evening we went to a gelato shop and got dessert. Even thought it wasn't our exact anniversary the evening was awesome!
I lived through all of that and still had time to clean the house and pack for my trip this morning. As of right now I have made it into Albuquerque and in a couple hours we will hop in the car to drive to Phoenix. I hope that everything goes well and the next post will tell you for sure!
