update on the little one

so we had another visit with the doc today. everything going great. i had to have the diabetes test today after the check up (i don't have it). i had to drink this crazy sugary drink then sit around for an hour, then have my blood drawn. so kinda funny thing....so i drink the crap and then they tell me "you might pass out or puke" they so could have told me that before, but i didn't do either while i sat in the waiting room and looked at pretty much all the magazines they had. anyway during the check up the doc measured my belly, listened to my little girls heart, and stabbed me all over my stomach with his hands. it kinda hurt, then he pushed way down on my stomach and felt for the head then had me do it. he was like "you feel that round thing, thats the baby's head" truthfully i couldn't tell what i was poking, i just fake smiled and said, yeah i can feel it.
anyway thats all that happened today. we got new tires on the car, because one went flat and was done for. we tried to find just one used tire, but we seem to not have good luck with tires and no where in moses lake had the size we needed. so we had to buy new ones. so the subaru looked very nice.
ANYWAY thats about it. so i found this married couple questionaire on someones blog and me being bored all the time decided to do this. feel free to steal it and fill it out all you lovebirds out there.

What is his name? Spencer Todd King
How long have you been together? um....married for over 8 months, been together for over a year, and we were friends for over 9 years before we got together
When did you get married and where? Dec 15 2007 in the Portland OR Temple
Where did you meet? well i met him a long time ago, our sisters were friends and he came over to my house a lot and we hung out. in high school we went different ways, then after his mission, we saw each other at church his first time since being back from brazil, but didn't talk, well we did talk on msn and he tried to make his moves there, but i was kinda dense. we hung out at a singles ward activity a week later, and since that saturday activity, we have been together ever since

Our SMOKING-HOT Demo Derby Date


Demo Derby highs and lows.
In the years past I have not experienced a demo like this years. The races were malicious. It was a hit for hit run aroud the track that made it one of the best Ive seen. 2 cars were flipped over, one in the race alone! I am very horse and it hurts to talk. We had very good company and it made it all the better.
I could have killed the people sitting behind us. It was F this, F that. They were getting drunk and just kept yelling. Also, there was many a person smoking near us. Amber beeing 6 Months prego, didnt take it well. The bleachers also werent the best on her back(nor mine). She took off about an hour before it was over. James Baker went and yelled at a guy for smoking. at first, the guy didnt want to stop, but then when he accually looked james up and down, decided that it was in his best interest to put it out.
Good times, Good Fun, Good Food, Great laughs.

saturday fun.

*pics at end of post!
so this past saturday we went to spokane because my brother-in-law josh got free tickets to wild waters. i was very excited to go and swim with my niece kalei and to have some fun with the family. but.....my excitment was crushed when i got sick on the way to spokane. and i felt sick the whole time. it was so depressing. i don't think it had anything to do with my pregnancy, just something i ate, but it was very depressing! but everyone else had a blast. spencer loved it! it was one of the first outings! he always has to work, but this time he didn't. it was very nice to have him with us! esp since i got sick. he was very helpful and i don't know what i would do without him. he was even going to hold my hair when i had to run to the bathroom. how sweet. lol. well, during the day we did a little shopping (the swimming was at 5:30pm) and i got a very cute maternity shirt for 11 bucks! i love it and its my new favorite. i want to wear it all the time! spencer got some swim short and some regular shorts. he looked so cute in his swim shorts! he he he....

OH i almost forgot......so breast fest was on friday (breast feeding awareness fest thing) anyway, my sis helps out at it and this year she asked if i could help. honestly i really didn't do anything but play with kalei. anyway.... breast fest is something that a local clinic puts on and theres a butt load of prizes you can win from the different booths that stores and organizations have. well....i decided to take advantage of this so i went around and signed up! and i got a lot! i think that every prego and post prego should go to this! i got a booster seat, a convertable car seat(spencer won that lol), a basket full of baby stuff, 10 bucks at grocery outlet, and then i got lots of free stuff from the boothes like pens, note pads, free samples.....it was the best! spencer even came for his lunch break. he had a lot of fun playing with kalei at the little kiddy area.

well thats about it, we got now phones and i hope everyone got the new numbers. um....yep....our next appointment is on the 22nd. i'm 6 months along, and entering the final trimester. scary! less then 100 days till i give birth! ah!!!!!! or i'm atleast due!!!!


until next blog
