My "little" boy!!

So I had my 25 week checkup yesterday, and I am feeling like a beached whale. I am starting to get winded really easy, and just have felt really huge for only being 25 weeks. I got an ultra sound done, and he is actually still measuring 2 weeks ahead. He has been consistently the entire pregnancy, so that makes me feel allot better!! That puts him just about into the 3rd trimester already!! crazy hu ?!? He is measuring in at roughly 2 lbs, which is huge for 25 weeks and a little big for 27 weeks, but just about right. Today I measured my belly from around my belly button and I am 37 1/2 inches!!! that's big!! But the good news is, is that I can still get my old pants on, just not do them up, so not too bad right!???!? I hope so. anyways, here are some fun pics of the ultra sounds, one is his profile, and the other is his foot!! Yay!! So cute!

Nothin special...

So I have had a lot of requests for a new baby bump pic, so here it is....

its true, i am looking like I swallowed a pumpkin. I am 25 weeks now, and feeling pretty good. my feet are starting to swell when I work all day, and my insides are starting to feel a little like punching bag, but I am loving being pregnant!!!!

Today I was put in as 2nd councilor of the Young Women in our ward. I know what you are thinking, Lacie in charge of our youth!?!? A little scary I know, but I am really looking forward to it. I am especially excited to be with the bee hives. I think I would be a little intimidated by the older girls.

And on a sad note, Shawn accidentally deleted EVERYTHING on the dvr.... I am so SAD!! all my late night Monster Qwest adventures are gone! along with my home decorating shows, and Shawn's hunting shows. Its gonna be a very boring week or two at our house until we get another stockpile of shows....

That's all the excitement at the Nielsen house.

growing like crazy!!

So as you all know Leslie and I are neck in neck with these babies!! Its so much fun!! We had our 20-21 week checkup on the same day, and it turns out, our babies are the ExAcT same size!!! CRAZY HU!?!? Pretty fun, you really couldn't have planned it any better!! We are now 22 weeks as of tomorrow, and here is our last baby belly shot, about 21 weeks 2 days!

Pretty Exciting......

ITS SNOWING AT MY HOUSE!!!! I know now what you were expecting, but I love this time of year!! I just do, it makes makes me happy! I spent the night listening to Martina Mcbride, putting up my Halloween decorations, with a nice warm fire burning in the stove, and my Autumn candle burning.... Does it get any better than that?

Also, coming up this week, I go to the doc on Friday, for my 20 (one day shy of 21) week apt. I am really excited, I have started to feel him moving, and I am super anxious to see what he looks like this week. We have a few names picked out, but nothing def yet. any ideas I would love to hear them.

And last but not least...... MY CHAIR IS DONE!!!!! Yay!!! I was so surprised when Shawn brought it home today! I had it all about done yesterday, just had to put the back on it, and its done!!! I am so excited! I don't have any room in my nursery yet, so its sitting in my living room right now, but its finally done!!! hope ya like it!

Its been awhile!!

So my computer is finally up and running again. Yay!! I don't know how I went so long without it. There isn't much to report this time other that I am getting big, and the baby is growing great!! We are 99% sure that we are having a boy!! Super excited!!! the only thing is that by the time he gets here Shawn and I will have 43 nieces/ nephews, and I am having a really hard time finding a name we both agree on that doesn't rhyme with or sound alot like that names that are in our families already.... I HATE not having a name for him yet!!!! Shawn thinks we should just name him "GEORGY PORGY" (not seriously) but that's what he calls him when he talks to him and it drives my crazy!!! I am starting to get really excited, and have got a few things here and there. My belly is starting to get big, and I cant wait till I can really feel the little guy move!! I can a little bit now, but Shawn keeps telling me its just a gas bubble... men....

Oh, and for our Anniversary Shawn got me and Leslie tickets to go see David Cook!! I love him!!! (Shawn and David Cook.) Les and I had a blast other than the old ladies sitting behind us talking the entire time. My pics are a little blurry, but ya get the idea.

5 years down, Happily ever after to go...

So Friday was our 5 year anniversary. It has gone by so fast, but at the same time feels like I have know Shawn my whole life. I can honestly say without a doubt that he is my best friend, and I cant imagine where I would be without him. I am so greatful to have found someone as wonderful as he is, and even more greatful that he has chosen to spend the rest of forever with me!! Its so crazy that we are so much alike, and have the same thoughts and views on life. Even though he isn't much of a talker, he is so fun to have late night talks with, and I have to say, he is really good at making me laugh.
I love this wedding pic of us, but unfortunately, none of our wedding pics were digital, so this turned out fuzzy from the scanner.

Here's to Eternity, and all the bumps along the way!!!! I love your stinking guts honey!!
