But it is far too hilarious to deprive you of it.
Enjoy.
Ps. don't be surprised if i delete this post soon.

All of May (WARNING! Extra long post....)
Since I haven't blogged for all of May, I will give you the big scoop. (Mostly for the out-of-staters).
1) We bought this little beauty.
2) We sold this little beauty.
3) Got violated in my own driveway. I don't think I had ever been so angry at a person. It was probably just pregnancy hormones shooting out every which way, but I was livid! (ps. i love being prego. You can blame anything you want on the fact that you are growing a human, and people just take it :))
4) For (future) Mother's Day, Chase bought me a new sewing machine! It's nothing fancy, but i absolutely love it. I have been using my mom's old one, and although I love that one and love that she trusted me with it, I DO love having a new one! I have been busy sewing to say the least!
5) I made 16 skirts for the girls in my class' Spring Concert Hoe Down. I am a fool and didn't even take a single picture. And i actually didn't even get to go to the Spring Concert by a series of unfortunate events and by going to a place I am all too familiar with; THE ER.
6) I ((reluctantly)) went to the ER because I had been having A LOT of pain in one particular part of my belly. It could have been problems with the placenta, but turned out I just ripped my six pack muscles instead of letting them slowly thin out. I guess I am just too hardcore.
But it is pretty awesome being pregnant at the emergency room. They rush you back and put you at the top of the list! We were there a total of 4 hours versus the usual 40!
But while we are on this subject, I just wanted to say an official THANK YOU to all my brothers and sisters who prayed for me while I was nervously sitting in the hospital bed. It's a scary feeling that I felt that day. I usually don't worry about myself and my health the way I should, but when there is another human being depending on me to take care of myself, it changed my perspective completely. I hardly even fought my mom when she said I need to go to the ER!
And to top it all off, my UH-MAZE-ING sister, Molly made me the dinner the next day. I love all my sisters and brothers. They are way too good to me and I could never even begin to repay them they way they deserve. Thanks again Molly!
Chicken and Dumplings!
Pumpkin Cobbler (I ate every bite! It only lasted like 2 days.)
7) I made freak awesome pillows. They are a little rough around the petals, but i was super proud of myself for figuring it out without any instructions. I know, I am so humble. ha
I saw this flowery pillow at Kohl's for $45! And being the daughter of my mother, i said "I could make that." and so I did! It took 2 hours of my life, but I did it nonetheless.
8) We found out the hard(nasty) way that Nelly is in heat. Ew. I say, keep her outside till she's done with it. But Chase is too soft hearted and can't stand the thought of her being exiled to the backyard. But have no fear! Chase whipped up this little beaut so she could jump and drool and run around my nice clean house all she wants. Oh yay. Thank heaven for his inventive brain.
9) SUMMER TIME! School's out. That means work is out too. Except for the runs to Hobby Lobby with Katie and hanging at Mom and Dad's with everyone, I get so bored sitting at home, who knows WHAT I'll end up doing! Probably end up cooking dinner one of these days. But- who knows.
10) My tummy is getting bigger everyday. I thought I would be this big by the end of my pregnancy! But sadly, no. I still have more than 11 weeks to grow and stretch out the rest of my clothes. It is so fun though! besides the fact that I can never get comfortable and my body parts fall asleep 7x as fast as normal, I absolutely LOVE feeling him move! When people ask me what it feels like, I can only think of "Imagine a little person is inside of you. And then they move and scrape the inside of your tummy. That is exactly what it feels like." But, boy does it tickle! I am ultra-ticklish on my stomach. Every time he turns over or changes position, I can't help but laugh or at least smile because it feels like someone is tickling me! At night he really wakes up. Which is a little ironic cause i sleep at night. I just lay in bed trying not to laugh so Chase can sleep, while he has a parade inside me! I must look like a mega goof when I am by myself in a public place and I just start laughing and grabbing my bulging stomach. But it's like mine and Polka-Dot's little inside joke.
11) I have been looking at pictures of myself from a year or two ago, and I get a little tiny bit depressed. I WAS SO SKINNY. And if anyone would have told me that back then, I would have laughed at them. Everyone knows that when you're pregnant, your belly grows. But I never knew everything else gets bigger too! I mean, HOLY COW! For reals!? Face, arms, legs, hips. The whole sha-bang. My poor body. (I used to be tan too :)... this was the day Chase came home from his mission 2 years ago. I can't even button one button of that shirt now...i tried. hahaha)
Welll! That's about it for all of May! Now that I don't have work I will have more time, and you will get to enjoy lots more posts about boring nothingness!!! YAY!

Easter Weekend Extravaganza
On Thursday Chase and I went to our second ultrasound.
UUUUHHHH-MAAA-ZING.
Did you know there is a HUMAN BEING in my belly?
I wouldn't beleive it either if i hadnt seen it for myself.
Not just ANY human being....
a boy!
Surprised?
So were we.
But mostly so excited.
For the last couple years we've made a tradition out of going to conference and spending the weekend with good friends. This year made no exceptions.
So Thursday directly after the appointment, we headed up to Utah with
Thanks to the snow and ice and all that fun stuff, we didn't make it there till 3am!
Here is our weekend in pictures.
We looked high and low for a sled but resorted to trash bags.
(which was Elizabeth's fabulous idea!)
Freezing. I have 3 coats on.
Just your average BYU students playing a good old fashion game of Quidditch.
With brooms and all.
Tucanos.
Best Brazilian meat on a sword ever.
Brazil Fortaleza Mission Reunion
Guarana.
Drink of choice.
Easter morning.
General Conference April 2010

help?
OK-
For Christmas, (or maybe my birthday?...i can't remember...they're close)
Chase made me a website/ shop with unlimited item space, so I can start my own little shop!
I was a little scared (and still am)
but I think I just need to push myself and do it.
It could be fun, yeah?
So, i am super excited cause it doesn't just have to be things I make!
I want to include all the awesome things my mom and sisters make too!
(they are all waaaay more creative than me! and i have unlimited item space! yay!)
Well, I need help.
Chase thought of the name all by himself and purchased the domain name before he "gave" it to me.
It was cute to see what he came up with,
but i hate it. : /
Not a big deal, cause he can always transfer the content to another domain name.
So, now i just need to think of a name for the shop and so he can create the
domain name and get things rolling!
WHAT DO YOU THINK???
any ideas for an awesome name?
I don't want anything too common like "shabby chic shop"
everyone and their mom has that name.
i seriously can't even think of one thing.
I think my growing baby takes all my brains away and I feel like I'm going insane!
help me out!
puhleeease!

Don't Drink Icy Chocolate Milk
Have a fever?
Feeling ill?
Then what's better than grilled cheese and chicken noodle soup!?
(answer: nothing)
That's how I've been feeling lately....
just a little queazy.
So i did what i always do.
i quite possibly make the most kick a-dollar sign-dollar sign grilled cheese and turkey sandwich everrrr!
(and i can open a can of chicken noodle pretty darn well too.)
i also tried icy chocolate milk today.
i love chocolate milk.
always have. always will.
i wish my mom had bought me a gallon of chocolate milk all for myself.
(i hope thats funny already... if not- my sincerest apologies.)
anyway- Katie Nash gave me a gallon of frozen milk.
(thanks kate!)
and its taking like 3 days to thaw out in the fridge!
well i couldn't wait.
and just made a chocolate milk slushy of sorts.
it was surprisingly really really disgusting.
and nearly resulted in vomiting.
save yourself and don't try it.

Playing House
We watched Caitlin's baby, Riley, all day Saturday and got a little pre-show of how it's going to be not too far from now.
Chase loved it.

HAPPINESS IS...
Happiness is having a kick-trash birthday and being 21!!!
(woot woot! it seems so much older than 20.
i still feel 16.)
Happiness is closing on your house the day after your birthday!
(HOMEOWNERS!)
Happiness is reading one word that will change your life forever.
(if i look really tired... it's cause i am. Tired is all i am lately...)
Just in case you can't read that word...
It says pregnant.
THAT'S RIGHT!
there's a little pumpkin growing inside my tummy!
due to grace us with his/her presence on august 27th.
[i guess this will get the baby out of my system now :)]
