In reference...

I would just like to say in reference to the below post.... It would be really cruel to try and get revenge against a woman who can't even sleep at night because she's carrying your unborn child!!! The right thing would to do would be to suck it up and get the book because it would keep the woman and the unborn child distracted from all the miserable symptoms they are going through! PS. We do love you very much... But DO NOT mess with us!

Vampires and Werewolves

Tomorrow is the release of the new Stephanie Meyer book I think it is called Breaking Dawn. Well, Tanshyle and Bean are very excited to read this new book as soon as it comes out. I can't see the appeal of these books. I think they sound really weird because they are about a young girl that falls in love with a 100 year old vampire, yet she is torn because there is a werewolf that is her own age and she is stuck to choose between the two. Needless to say, these books have girly written all over them. Well when we were engaged, the 3rd book was released and I thought I would surprise T by getting the book for her to read. Anyone that has tried to buy these books, as soon as, they came out would know that it is harder to get then a new Harry Potter book. So I went into Borders and every other bookstore for two weeks straight asking for this romance book. I am pretty sure I was known as the tall gay guy that comes in here and leaves very disappointed when he can never get his special book. I finally got it after two weeks of checking at these bookstores everyday. When I was checking out with the book, two older ladies there were pointing at me and saying, to another guy, see there is a guy that is buying the book. After trying to convince them that the book was for my wife, I just gave up and resigned myself to the title of tall gay guy that has to see if Bella ends up with Jacob or Edward. So I will figure out some way to get revenge, but for now it looks like just a couple more weeks of trips to the bookstore to get a chick book for my wife, and trying to convince people it really isn't for me. -MATT

Late Night Fry Run

So Matt and I just got back from a late night fry run... Bean wanted fries and so I went and pulled Matt out of bed... (I, of course, am up because I have to pee every five minutes!) and we headed down to the good 'ole Saratoga Springs McDonalds for a fry fix. I tried to withhold. I know that I shouldn't feed my bean fast food but BEAN WANTED FRIES! What am I supposed to do?!? Deprive my unborn child? No Way! I'm hoping one day Bean's cravings will turn into carrots and celery since I'm starting to feel very very fat!

Our Favorite Quotes!

Matt and I love to quote our favorite shows and movies! We decided to make a list of our absolute favorites!

I don't know if you are aware of this Gutter but there was actually music recorded before 1989... What is this? You are going to wear this to the show? You're gonna wear the shirt of the band you are going to see?! DON'T BE THAT GUY!! - PCU

Ross: A pigeon, a pigeon. No,no wait, no-no, an eagle flew in, landed on the stove and caught fire. The baby, seeing this, jumps to the mighty bird's aid. The eagle, however, misconstrues as an act of aggression and grabs the baby in its talon. Meanwhile the faucet fills the apartment with water. Baby and bird still ablaze are locked in a death grip, swirling around the whirlpool, that fills the apartment!!
Rachel: Boy, are you gonna be sorry if that's true. - Friends, Season 9, The One with Pheobe's Birthday Dinner

I'm kind of a big deal. People know me. I've got many leather-bound books... My apartment smells of rich mahogony...I'm gonna throw this out there and if you don't like it just throw it back. I want to be on you. -Anchorman

Jermaine: My rhymes were so potent that in this small segment, I made all of the ladies in the area pregnant. Yes, I know my lyrics are sexist but you lovely bitches and hoes should know I'm trying to correct this.
Bret: Other rappers diss me, say my rhymes are sissy.
Both: Wh-why? Why exactly, be more constuctive with your feedback!
Bret: Why? Because I rap about reality, like me and my grandma drinkin' a cup of tea.
Both: There ain't no party like my nanna's tea party... Hey! Ho! - Flight of the Conchords, Hiphop-potamus vs Rhymenoceros

Oh, I'm sorry... Is the puffy, sweaty pregnant lady ruining your precious coffee time?! -Friends, Season 8, The One Where Rachel is Late

We don't got doors on the stalls in the boys room, we don't... what is this?... we don't got a candy machine. We don't got none of that! I'm sorry no! I want the principal here!

The Pregnancy NO NO NO List Continues...

So here I am, midnight on Friday night, alone in my living room watching Friends with terrible terrible heartburn!!!!!!! It's awful! I've eaten at least 8 Tums and 4 glasses of milk today!!! For those of you who haven't experienced the joys of pregnancy yet... BE PREPARED to give up any food with flavor. Food with flavor will either smell, and therefore give you morning sickness or will taste good and give you heartburn. So here are the new additions to the Pregnancy NO NO NO List....

1. Pizza (No it does not make me nauseated, it does however, make me cough of stomach acid from heartburn for days...)
2. Shredded Lettace (This should have been included on the previous list. Since the day I found out, it's made me gag and choke.)
3. Pepper....... Yep, I'm cutting out pepper... it adds flavor to food and therefore, gives me heartburn!
4. Salt (See Above)
5. Tums (I've eaten so many that now it makes me nauseated just thinking about eating anymore!)
6. Flamin' Hot Cheetos (This morning I thought I could cheat and eat them for breakfast, in hopes that eating them early would curb the heartburn... NOPE!)
7. Spicey Chicken Bowl from Hogi Yogi......... I kinda want to cry because I have to add this one.
8. Anything you have to cook in the microwave... The food will just taste like the microwave.

That's all for now..... I'm sure the list will keep growing until the only food I'll have left to eat will be a glass of water.

Tag You're It!!!!!

Nicole tagged her entire friends list! So here it goes!
Here are the rules.... Post these rules on your blog:List 3 Joys, 3 Fears, 3 Goals, 3 Current Obsessions/Collections, and 3 Random surprises about yourself.

Joys:

1. Our Marriage!

2. Our Baby!!! We can't wait to meet you Bean! (Peach/Grapefruit... Bean's not the size of a bean anymore! Believe me...)

3. Our little puppy Heckles! He's our preparation for our baby! He thinks he's human and he's got more personality then most people. We like to teach him tricks, even though he doesn't understand the words and just does the tricks he already knows until he does the right one. He'll only do them if you have a treat too.

Fears:

1. Labor. Yes, both of us our scared for this. I'm scared about giving birth to a 13 lb baby, and Matt's scared of loosing a limb in the middle of it. (I'm not giving birth naturally and NO I don't care about the benefits of giving birth naturally.)

2. Complications. Even though we try not to talk about it, we both are scared that our baby will have complications. But we will love our Bean no matter what!

3. Bugs in our bed.... This is a new one. I was asleep one night in our bed. (After kicking Matt out for snoring) and something crawled on me!!! Matt came in after I screamed and freaked out... He assured the bug was long gone and to go back to sleep. Well about an hour after he went back to work, something started crawling on me again!!!!! I was sure our bedroom was infested with bugs and made Matt come home from work immediately! He came home and killed the bug and washed all our bedding. I didn't go in our room for the entire day.

Goals:

1. To finish school. This seems so far off, but we both agree that our educations are very important and we'll do anything to get through school.

2. To have a baby. We're already four months pregnant. So we're doing well achieving this goal!

3. To survive the pregnancy.... At this point, this is really more Matt's goal then mine. HEHE! I'm sure once I get bigger I'll be wondering how I will survive too.

Obsessions

1. I think one is fairly obvious. Our baby!

2. Cheese-Its. This is my new pregnancy comfort foods. Matt ate my last four Cheese-Its the other day and was almost put out on the street for the night. Never touch a pregnant ladies comfort food!

3. Weight Gain. Ok, so Matt really isn't concerned with his weight gain, but I AM! I worry everyday that I'm gaining too much or too little.

Surprises

1. Uh... for everyone wondering... Yes, the baby was a surprise. I very very pleasant one. (I think a baby counts for all three surprises)

OK! That's it!

I had to scale the deck today....

So Matt and I live on the second floor in our condo building.... I woke up this morning being the good little housewife that I am, I started laundry, cleaned up the kitchen and got the dog ready to go out... When the dog and I were on our walk, the dog was really cute chasing butterflies and being happy. We got back to our door and the DOOR WAS LOCKED!!!!! I had no phone, no shoes and a dog... I started to think.... Matt had been locked out before and had climbed up to the deck to get in. I figured, how hard could that be. (Matt's 6'4" and I'm 5'1") I'm a tough chick! If he could do it, I could definately do it! So I tied the dog to the front door and went around to climb up to the deck. I grabbed on to the bars on the railing and started to climb up. About two seconds into the climb, I realized I didn't have any stomach muscles anymore! My pregnant belly was just big enough that I couldn't use any stomach strength to climb up. I started to look down.... Could I jump down and not fall???? I can't fall..... That'll hurt the baby.... I'm high enough I could break an ankle if I land on my feet... What do I do?!?!? So I just kept climbing! Four bruises and a close-to-broken toe later... I was on the deck. I was so tired and winded that I almost forgot about the poor puppy still tied to the door! The baby, the puppy and I are all still alive but after this I don't think I'll ever forget my keys again!!!

The Pregnancy No No No List

So I've decided to start a pregnancy No No No list! These are all the foods that I can no longer eat because they make me sick.........

1. Ground Beef
2. Talapia
3. Shrimp
4. Tuna Fish
5. Diet Soda
6. Gummy Bears
7. Chocolate

HI!

So my one of my bestest friends (Nicole) talked me into starting a blog for Matt and I. So about us.... Well, we got married on October 12, 2007 and our first baby is due January 17th, 2009!!!! We're so so so so so excited! Matt's Pre-Med at the University of Utah and I'm majoring in Economics. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that all my classes will be available when I need them to be, so I can graduate next summer and start my Master's Degree. Matt's currently submerged in MCAT Prep and working full time. I'm just at home going to school full time and preparing to be a mommy!!!!! We couldn't be happier right now..... Except maybe if we won the lottery or something (Or, maybe if Arrested Development was put back on TV... yeah that would be a good day for Matt and I)
