School Has Started

Ready or not it has hit and man i don't know about you, but I got hit hard with homework on the first day. that hasn't happened to me in a really long time. So today I got a pleasant surprise. I am taking Art 100 and as I was sitting in the room I had this feeling that someone I knew would be in the class. It was weird, maybe just very hopeful thoughts, but it worked Brian Ellis (friend from high school for those who don't know who he is) and Jordan Gillette (kid from my parents home ward) are in my class. How awesome is that. Brian just got married a few weeks ago and he was all smiles and was so excited to show me his ring. I think he was also happy to know someone in his class. So we talked after class and I found out that since they just recently changed the ward boundaries for our ward they aren't in our ward, otherwise they would have been, Bummer! they are such a cute couple. It would have been nice to been in the same ward.
So my morning sickness has returned with a vengence. I am on such a schedule with eating it is unreal. i wasn't tied down to eating at specific times with my last pregnancy, but they say each one is different.
Juliet is walking!!! at 10 months. She is really determined to get it down really fast. It won't be long until she is running everywhere. She tried it the other day and fell down, but she has figured out that if when she starts to get a little wobbly if she just keeps moving her feet and moves them faster she will stay upright, most of the time. She loves that she can be mobile while upright. mostly because before she could only carry one item in her mouth and now she can carry one in her mouth and one in each hand if they are small. The funniest is watching her carry a big red ball that she got for christmas. She laughs everytime that she picks it up. I think it is because she figures if she falls down that the ball will make her bounce. It has happened once. She loved it. She loves to sit in Kellen's lap and put the ball between their foreheads and then shake her head back and forth. It is really funny to watch. Also Juliet is such a daddy's girl. We will all be in the kitchen and if he walks out she cries even if I am there and feeding her. She is so attached. Kellen loves it and then when she is whinny he has a hard time with it because she just wants him not me. So since school has started back up for me kellen has had to become Mr. Mom to a certain degree. i think he will be happy to turn that role back over to me, but I am gratful that he is willing.
Okay well that is all I got for now. I am going to go eat (that whole eating schedule) and then maybe watch a movie and chip away at my homework. until next time. :)

Hi Everybody

Okay so I am so happy to be back home after much traveling. It seems we have to go somewhere every weekend, and this weekend we have a wedding to go to. I am also happy to be back to my computer and the internet and being able read everyone's blogs. Okay so in my last blog I causally mentioned I was pregnant. So now I will expand on the subject. This was not planned, quite the surprize actually. I was thinking we would start working on another one after this spring semester, but I am still way excited. the really amazing part about this pregnancy is that I really haven't been sick. Before Christmas I was throwing up, but afterwards I haven't thrown up with the exception of the flu bug my family caught. I haven't thrown up since. I love it. If I could be pregnant like this everytime, it would make the family a lot bigger. Anyway I have to confess that I am a klutz. While we were out at Kellen's parents I fell down their stairs. Not bad, but I wacked my arm pretty hard and now it is looking all black and blue and yellow. I wear long sleeves to cover it up, because it looks so gross. So today i went and got all my fees for school paid. Kellen and I have been so blessed this year because I got a big scholarship and with the financial aid I received we don't have to pay out of pocket for my schooling. It has been a big relief especially to Kellen.
So tomorrow is my birthday and I will be turning 23. I have no idea what to do for my birthday. Kellen keeps asking me and I got nothin' We have agreed to going out to dinner, but that is about it so far. Any ideas? Let me know.

Short Update

Okay so I have been away from my computer this whole time, either that or Kellen has been using it. Anyway, So we had an awesome Christmas. We got stuck driving out to my parents for Christmas, but we won't go into that because this is a short and quick update. Kellen and I came home from my parents on Saturday after Christmas so we could attend our own ward. We are trying to be good children. Well in sacrament meeting Jet threw up and we rushed home, because there was no staying with how messy her dress was and I had no spare pjs to put her in. (Laugh Monica) So then that night Kellen and I are sick with the flu. All night he would use the bathroom and then me. It was awful. I was doing double duty as far as sick goes because Kellen and I are expecting again. We think that our bundle of Joy will arrive somewhere in August. That's our guess. So we stayed home for a few days to recoop because the plan was to head off to Kell's parents right away, but we figured we didn't want to spread the flu if we could help it. So eventually we went out to Arco and spent a few days out there. Jet must have still had something because she became a super pooper while we were there. I was so grateful that I decided at the last minute to throw in a few more diapers just in case and they saved my bacon. Jet is also getting more and more determined to walk and she has done six steps before. We are so excited. I think she became more determined to do it because she saw all of her older cousins walking around and it looked cool because you could move and not have to carry what you wanted to take with you in your mouth. Anyway so that is our life lately in a nut shell. I also finally got to checking out what my grades were for this last semester and they were really good. I was so excited so Kellen and I are having root beers to celebrate. Till next time.
