10 weeks to go!

I can't believe that I am to the point now during this pregnancy that I only have about 10 weeks left. It has gone by really fast and I really can't complain too much. I am tired and Noah is getting heavier all the time so it is hard to get comfortable but otherwise this pregnancy has been pretty easy. DJ has been great to help me and I feel extremely lucky to have him around. We have Noah's nursery almost done and that is making the wait for him to be here a little harder. Can't wait to hold this little guy for the first time!

Baby Shower

We had the first of 2 baby showers yesterday. Laura, Brittany, Jenn and my mom did a great job. The invitations were really cute and it was a lot of fun to see everyone that came and open all the cute little outfits. I makes me really excited for Noah to come. Thanks to everyone that came and all the support we have. We also moved a week ago and have started getting Noah's room together. Just another thing to bring to mind how close it is that he will be here. My due date is about two months away and DJ and I am very excited to have our son here with us.

More Pictures of Disneyland Trip.

This picture of Abi is the very first day we were there. Everyone else was on the Materhorn.

Disneyland 2011

DJ and I went to Disneyland this last November with my family. We had a lot of fun together. If you look closely at the picture of me you can see the baby bump. It is much bigger now but it was there.

Let's try this again.

I have decided to try to start this up again. DJ and I are now expecting our first child and very excited about it so I thought this would be a good way to post pictures about him and our adventures with Noah.

Getting back in to Working out on a regular basis is hard!!

In college I used to workout pretty consistently. I would take that gym class that you had to go three times a week for an hour to get an A. I didn't really have much luck in losing much weight but I felt healthier than I do now. I feel like there is so much stress in my life at that moment that I have pushing exercise to the side. I want to change that. I am getting very impatient for starting a family. However I am very nervous about having children and being overweight. So... I am excited about this new DVD with that Julianne Hough from Dancing with the stars. It is a lot of fun and I think I will stick to it for a while. It is not as boring as most DVDs and it really kicked my butt. This along with the gym at our new apartment complex should be enough that I will no longer have an excuse. It is close and easy to use.

New Years Goals

I have never been one for the new years resolutions, but this year I am going to try to change my bad habits. I have just started weight watchers. I am excited and extremely hopeful that it will finally be what helps me get back to where I want to be. My main goal is to be healthier not really how many pounds I lose. I know that will be a big part of it but that is not going to be my focus as much as healthy habits and a healthier me. I have tried many things in my life since high school which is when I really started gaining weight. During my college years I took that gym class where you had to go three times a week to get an A. I did pretty good at going. I usually didn't miss many days but it never really seemed to help. As I have talked to people at my school and in my ward I have found a lot of people that have really had weight watchers help them or know of many people that have had success. So I am going to try it.My goal for the year is to lose enough weight that I feel more confident in my body so that I can get pregnant and not worry so much about the effect my weight would have on a healthy pregnancy. I am past ready to start a family and this has been the biggest thing in holding me back the last year. I figure I will keep this blog up to date so that I have some moral support from those few that ever read my blog. And if I can ever figure out how to fix it so you can comment maybe I can get some words of encouragement. I kind of feel like I am putting myself out there but I think it will be a help it getting me to my goals of mostly just being healthier.

Wish me Luck!!
