HS Football

Lucy went to her first high school football game and loved it. She would stand, scream, and clap her hands like crazy. In fact one time when the away team was going to kick a field goal, Lucy screamed really loud just when the kick happened and the guy messed up and missed! I don't know if it was because of her, but everyone around us told her good job! We are going to try and go to as many football games as we can. The high school we support is Wakeland. It is the one that Lucy will one day go to. I am also proud to say they have an excellent color guard. (Kathy!) They have won all sorts of competitions. The football team is actually 5-0 this year too, despite hearing reports they were terrible last season. Go Wakeland!

Sickness

Dave and I were sick this past month. Blah! I am not sure if Dave actually had the flu or not, he did sleep one night for 16 hours though, and then most of the next day! I think it was Heavenly Father letting Dave know what I was going through. September was especially hard for me because I was sick the whole month. I am still sick now. However it is not the flu or a cold or anything even spreadable. I am sick with MORNING SICKNESS! Yuk and Yeah! It is a blessing because that means our little family is going to grow but man do I feel like the pits. Last time with Lucy I lost almost 10 pounds from being sick. I have already lost 10 pounds and I have a feeling it is not over yet!

In August I felt weird, not sick, just weird like something was off. I took a pregnancy test just to see if it were possible. It came back negative so I thought, whatever maybe I am getting sick. September hits and I am totally sick. At first I was in denial because my body has not been functioning properly for me to get pregnant. After a week of being sick and just before going on our road trip, I thought, why not take another test. So I went to the dollar store (because there is no way I was paying extra for something I thought was going to be a negative) and got the test took it and thought no way! I am pregnant, no way! I took this picture (see below) and emailed Dave. He replied wanting to know if I wanted to celebrate, I thought yeah, when the morning sickness is over and I can actually enjoy however we celebrate!

I am due April 27th so do the math if you want to know how far along I am. I can never remember because I am trying to keep up with Lucy!

Lucy Goofyness

Lucy is a ball to have around. One day she got into the office and found the post-its. She got very upset when I finally took them away.




Lucy also has a tendency to get thrown off when we go to the fair so somedays she is really tired.

State Fair

So if you don't know already Dave and I love the state fair. We got season passes this year to be able to go multiple times. It has been so much fun. Lucy loves the fair. She petted some animals, won a prize, and ate so tasty food. We have of course also looked at all the cars and art projects people have done. We have been going after work for only a couple of hours so that we don't get overly tired plus during the week is way less crowded.

Salt Lake

Dave and I took a trip to Salt Lake to see Charlene and Aaron get sealed. It was such a great experience. I went out with Lucy a day before Dave did to be able to see Charlene take her endowments out. It is was such a wonderful experience. It was a quick trip but it was worth it. I love it when people are married or sealed in the temple. To me its like, YES! One more for the home team! It was also fun just to hangout and visit with everyone.

Lucy loved the Sperry's dogs. I don't know if they liked her as much but she could not get enough of them. She would just wander around following them. Patsy was also nice enough to watch her for us twice so Dave and I went on two double dates with our friends! IHOP the first night, and movie and slurpees the second. Brought back such good memories of our Utah days. It was amazing. Dave also got to see his mission president, which he always enjoys a lot. We also got to see Dave's sister, Katy, who lives in Provo.
