Go Utes!

A Utah Man sir, a Utah Man am I!!!!!!
We're proud of our Utes!

Announcing.... Holynd Reece Peterson!

We love our Baby Bean!

She's here! We're so excited. She's beautiful and perfect!

Born: 12-28-08 at 10:56am

Weight: 6lbs 15.8oz

Length: 20 inches

On the 26th, I went in for an Amnio to check her lung maturity. On the 27th, the doctors at University Hospital told us her lung were mature, her weight was awesome and that we needed to come in two hours later to start my induction. (Bean had a few complications they were worried about, so they decided to start me early to check on her.) We were totally surprised and scared. After 19 hours of labor, she's here and she's perfect. She's home with us now. We wouldn't trade her for anything. Even Heckles likes her!

Here are her first few pictures... I'm sure I'll have many more to come!

Enjoy!

As for Holynd's Guessing Game, my sister Tierra was closest on the date and my mom was the closest on the weight! So.... I guess they can treat themselves to some chocolate or something!

Here comes the stork!!!

Hey everyone! Just a little update! We had an Amniocentisis to check on Bean's lung maturity yesterday. She's ready!!!!!!!!!!!!

They're going to start inducing me this afternoon and hopefully by tomorrow our little Bean will be here! We're so excited! And a little nervous! (Well, I'm A LOT nervous, they think Bean is close to 8lbs! I wonder where she got those genes!)

We'll keep you all updated and post pictures soon!

Just... Wake me when it's over!

Just wake me when the pregnancy is over, finals are over, winter is over...etc.

I quit!

So, we've been "Blogger Slackers" lately.... Between school, work, Bean preparation, hospital visits, Ultrasound visits and Christmas decorating... We've been a little sidetracked! Bean likes to keep us on our toes by scaring us every couple of days. I guess she has to entertain herself somehow! I think it might be because when I stress... I eat everything in sight, so she gets lots of fun treats! Anyway, here are some pictures of what we've been up to! ENJOY!



This is a notice to Bean. You have 30 days to pay or vacate. Since I'm pretty sure you don't have a job or a means of income for rent, we're going to need you to vacate. Sorry!




We put Christmas lights up on our little deck! We learned quickly that you always test the lights before putting them up. Matt got the lights all put up and then realized that half of them didn't work. We ended up having to take them down, return them and then put the new ones back up again. Don't worry though, Matt insisted on taking them out of the box at Wal-Mart and unplugging half their Christmas displays in order to test them before we left the store.





Heckles refused to stay inside while Matt put the Christmas lights up. He was a big help by sticking his head through the bars and barking at nothing.



Matt got Bean's carseat a couple of days ago! She's going to be so cute in it! I hope we can figure out how to put it in my car!



So Heckles was really excited when we took the carseat out of the box.... 'cause he wanted to live in the box. He slept in there for about a week and then started to chew on the flaps. I finally got sick of having box pieces everywhere and threw it away. He was a little upset.



This is our last year with just to stockings on our mantel! Next year Bean will need one!



Here is our Christmas tree! I put it up the day before Thanksgiving against Matt's pleas. When he's big and pregnant, he can decide when we put our Christmas tree up!



So I decided that the dog needed his own Christmas tree... It had these cute ornaments on it, but he ate them. So now he just has his stocking on it and a "Mistle-Toad" for his tree topper. He likes to bury his treats behind it.



This is our little Christmas table setting! We haven't been able to eat at our table since I put it up, but I'm too pregnant to cook anyway!

So, we're patiently (Ok... Not very patiently) waiting for our little Bean to arrive! I'm completely out of room for her, so I hope she makes her appearance in the next couple of weeks! We'll post pictures as soon as she comes! (Especially since we've learned after a few trips to the hospital how boring it can be! We'll have a laptop close by!)
