Good Things Utah

I had such a great birthday! My family and friends are the BEST! I celebrated early with my family a couple of weeks ago, and got gift cards from everyone. I didn't have any ideas of what I wanted since I am huge and pregnant and didn't want skinny clothes yet, so gift cards were great. Then on my actual birthday, I went with Jenn, Talitha, and Shandra to a showing of Good Things Utah. It was a lot of fun and we got a cute picture with the ladies of the show. We then went to lunch at Paradise Cafe which was so yummy. I love to just sit and chat with my girls. Thanks so much for coming with me. Then Brock met me at Fashion Place and we shopped. I got a diaper bag, and sheets for the crib, a swimming suit, and a bra. We then went to the movie Vantage Point, and then to my favorite place, Outback, for dinner. Then, on Sunday, I celebrated with Brock's family. They are always so good to me. Again, I didn't give anyone any ideas of what I needed so gift cards and money won out, but Brock's two sisters got me a gift certificate at a Day Spa which I am sooooo excited about! Once I get this baby out of me and have all new aches and pains from taking care of two children, a spa day will definitely be in order. My mom took me to lunch today and will take me out again for a day of shopping after I have the baby. Thank you so much to everyone who made me feel special for my birthday!

Jennie's 26th Birthday!

Me and Kallie Pregnant

This is me and Brock's sister Kallie. She was due February 11th, and I am due March 7th. She ended up having her baby 4 days late last Friday, the 15th and I am having mine a week early on the 28th so our boys will only be two weeks apart! She is lucky and already delivered, but I only have 10 days to go, I guess I can wait. We were all shocked that even though she was 4 days over her little Beckett only weighed 6 lbs. 11 oz. and was 18 inches. He is soooooo little! Jace was 3 days early and was 8 lbs. 11 oz. and 20 inches! NOT FAIR! I know this one is going to be big too. I can't wait to not be pregnant any more!

FEBRUARY 2008

February is finally here. It seems like I have been waiting for this month forever! So much is going to happen this month for me. First of course, is Valentine's Day. I love Valentine's Day. Brock and I got engaged 5 years ago on the 14th, and although it is already a special day, it is even more special because of that. This year, I don't know what we're going to do, probably dinner at Outback. Our favorite place. It is really hard to feel pretty and sexy when you're eight months pregnant, but I'll do what I can.
Then, the 22nd is my birthday. I will be 26! One good thing about having a husband that is 5 years older than me is that no matter how old I feel like I am getting, I always feel so young around him and his old friends. Just kidding (sort of). I don't know why I love my birthday so much, but I do.
Then last, but not least, I am going to be having my baby this month. That is why I have been counting down for so long. Although this pregnancy went by so much faster than my first, I am still so ready for it to be OVER! I am not one of those women that likes being pregnant. Don't get me wrong, I feel so blessed that I have not had trouble getting pregnant and bringing these sweet babies to the world, but I don't really like all that comes with it. I am due March 7th, but my doctor said she will take me a week early, and depending on how I am dilating and so forth, she may even take me earlier. I am so excited! I have an appointment next Tuesday, the 12th, and I will know more then.
As excited as I am about having this baby, I am scared, and even a little bit sad. I know that I am going to have to give this baby most of my attention for the first little while, and I really feel like I am going to miss Jace. I don't ever want him to feel like he is being ignored or coming in second, but I don't know how to handle that. I hope that I am over thinking this, and that it won't be hard for me to give them both the attention they need. I think I have made a mistake by being the first of my closest friends to have babies. I don't really have anyone who can give me advice. I feel like I have to learn by making mistakes and trying to get better with time. I guess that's how everyone does it. I have caught myself staring at Jace and wanting to hold him more. I have even cried a little bit at the thought of having to share him. As of now, I only have 3 more weeks alone with him. I will really try to cherish this time. I quit my job last week, so all I have is time with him. I hope I spend it wisely.
