Saturday Night

My cousin Jamie married Chad Cordero (who is a pro baseball player, although I would've never known it since I don't really follow sports). Logan had so much fun at at the wedding last night. He danced for about 2 hours straight usually right in front of the huge speakers. The videographers and camera crew were following him around and all the young bridesmaids were trying to dance with him. He made his mom proud and turned each of them down. I failed to get good pictures of the newlyweds because all of them had people blocking the couple. The wedding was in Dana Point and the ceremony was nice and short, perfect for the attention span of a 14 month old (and Kyle).

Then it was cocktail time. But since there was a lot of sushi (which I can't eat during pregnancy) and Logan was out of control trying to take everyones alcoholic drinks, we just let the kid run around outside until it was time for the reception.

My mom took care of him most of the night....here's my view of him from where I was sitting at the table. Blocked by three tall vases.

(I pretended that I was having a dinner with just me and my husband).
But I kept my eyes on him to see how much he was eating.



We had such a good time, left with three candy apples from The Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory (which was heaven for me), and Logan truly slept like a baby completely worn out from all the dancing!

missed a day

Yesterday we were gone almost all day at a wedding for my cousin Jamie, so I didn't have time to post what I was thankful for. I'll have to do two today!

Yesterday I was thankful....that it was Saturday! Saturday means Kyle is home all day, Logi and I love spending all day with him.

A month of thanks

Jill Tanner gave me the idea of taking a picture everyday this month of things I am grateful for. I don't think I can commit to taking a new picture everyday so old ones will have to occasionally do.
Today, I am grateful for Logan who always has one eye on me.....
He's my shadow and never lets me get too far away!

Trick or treat

We named him Logan, he quickly became Logi, then Logi-Bear (I guess instead of Yogi-bear), and now Kyle calls him solely bear. So grandma Hunt got Logan a bear costume for Halloween. Cutest bear I've ever seen!!! We went to second street where all the stores pass out candy. Logan was a little timid at first, but after a few stores he walked right up to the candy person, looked in their containers of candy and took what he wanted. Noone seemed to mind. We met up with fisherman Harrison for some trick or treating!We also ran into a lot of families from our old ward, but the only picture I took was of Kyle talking to them. Logan had a great first Halloween, especially after he dipped into his bag of candy.
With those legs (passed down by me I fear), he probably should of been a chicken!

St. George trip

Over the weekend we took a quick trip to St. George for Kyle's cousin's wedding. Although it was such a short trip it was nice to see my in-laws and thanks to Kyle's mom Logan now has a Halloween costume (I thought about not dressing him up this year, bad mom...I know!).
Logan did pretty well driving to St. George especially since we only stopped once for lunch. Just a box of Raisins, pacifiers, and driving during his nap time made for a fairly pleasant baby (although he does look a little grumpy in the picture).
We did alot of swimming in our free time
and night swimming....pure joy for Logan.
Of course we went to the St. George temple for the sealing.
My sister in law Ashley, Logan and myself.
Our little family of 3 plus an ever growing bump.
My life for the past few months has been trying to get Logan to understand that he can't run in the middle of the street. No success yet....we're still working on it! Logan thought it was so strong carrying around this cone that was nearly taller than him. He blocked all the people trying to get out of the hotel. It entertained him though for nearly half an hour.
That's it! A short and sweet trip!

I was tagged by Ashley and since I've never done one before I thought I would start with this one.

Here are the rules:

Link the person who tagged you
Mention rules on your blog
Tell about 6 quirks of yours
Tag 6 fellow bloggers to do the same

1. I always take two showers. In the morning I can't (I could, but won't) put my contacts in until after I've showered. At night I have to shower, so I am fresh in my clean bed.

2. I change my clothes into comfy clothes within a minute of getting home. Kyle was weirded out when we first got married because I would start undressing the second I walked in so I could put pj type pants and a loose shirt on. I also can't wear a bra when I'm at home, how can you relax in a bra.

3. I love bread almost more than sweets. I love eating the crust off first and then I squeeze the rest into a ball and eat it that way.

4. When I used to work I loved code blues. It may be a little morbid but there was nothing more fun than trying to save a person's life, I guess that's why people work in the ICU or ER. A few months ago, Kyle and I saw a teenage boy get hit by a car and start seizing in the street. I didn't love it then, it actually made me feel sick, so it must just be at the hospital hooked up to machines that I love it.

5. I have to sleep with blankets on me regardless of the weather. Even in this hot weather that we are still having, I have to have a sheet and blanket on me at all times. It's been that way since I was a kid.

6. I can't stand feet. Won't touch then, hate when they touch me, don't even like to look at them. They are the one thing that used to make me want to hurl when I worked. No problem with feces, urine, vomit, or sputum....but feet disgusting!

next up: Julia, Ashley H., Megan, Autumn, Heidi, Jenn.

Not an ordinary GNO

We "Love to see the temple," so last night we did a late night session in Newport (8pm). It was perfect! We didn't get a picture outside of the temple, because we were starving since none of us had eaten dinner. But we did find one of the only open restaurants and chowed down.

Thanks for a spiritual/fun night girls...we should make it a monthly thing!

A little sad

Unfortunately, Logan cost us a small fortune to have even with insurance, so we have decided (mid pregnancy) to switch to Kaiser. I've never had an HMO before so I don't know what to expect, but I'm not a Kaiser hater....especially since my older bro just happens to be a physician for Kaiser. I'm just sad to leave my OB, Hoag, and especially my pediatrician. I get a little teary eyed when I think about finding a new ped. for both Logan and the new baby. My top concern right now is finding the best doc to perform the new baby's circ. I'm also worried about how fast anesthesia will respond when it is time for my epidural....it better be STAT!

Fortunately, I let my bro know about the insurance switch so he said he will help find me some good doctors. He may just have to take the day off when I have the baby just in case I need to have a personal doctor, not that I would EVER let him be in the delivery room!
