Our Little Secret



This pregnancy I have been sick; food aversion up the wazoo! I've lost about 10 pounds which is better than last week when it was 15 pounds. I've been making myself eat regardless of what is in front of me. It's been a challenge. 

We went to California last week and got home yesterday. It was an awesome laid back trip; minus catching a cold the day we got there, and a dude hitting our rental car (good thing Marcus had the foresight to purchase the rental insurance). I got to enjoy my In-n-Out burger, and my Del Taco burrito. Yummy!

We planned a little visit at a cute little park in Pasadena with Zach and Sabrina and their sweet baby. We haven't seen them since college and the last time Sabrina was about to pop! We loved catching up!




I turned 25 on our trip! We went to The Cheesecake Factory for dinner with my grandparents and some cousins and aunt and uncle. It was awesome! I forgot to take a group picture, but it was a good time.

Some pictures:
This was on the way to California--the FIRST out of THREE planes.

The girls were pretty well behaved until Faye had a meltdown the last hour of the ride.


Always climbing. Mom got them some pretty princess dresses which they love. 


Mom taught Madeline how to roll dough for refrigerator rolls in prep for our Sunday Conference lunch. She was amazed that they turned into bread after they were cooked. 


The ride home was so exhausting. The TSA made us miss our flight so we had to find a different one that landed in Georgia at midnight.

This is us "sleeping" in the airport. And in case you were wondering...it is impossible to find a quiet place in the airport because they clean it ALL night long and the stupid announcements don't turn off even when flights aren't scheduled to get there until morning. 

At least the girls were able to sleep. A nice security guard gave us blankets and travel bags filled with bathroom essentials which was such a blessing since our bags were on their way to New York and then Charleston.

Our stroller seat lays all  the way back which is another blessing since Faye was able to sleep nice and comfortable there. 

We got home 1/2 hour before my scheduled doctor appointment so we went and got to see the baby! It is so cute and was sucking its thumb and scratching its head. We can't wait to find out what it is, but that won't be until December, but they may be able to tell a little earlier if we have another ultrasound due to my high risk factor. I don't care if it's a girl or boy, but I  think I'm great with girls and if it's a boy I'll rise to the task. Some days Maddy thinks she wants a brother and other days she wants another sister. We shall see.

While Marcus went back into the airport to pick up our luggage after my doctor's appointment we waited in the car and Faye fell asleep in my arms which is so rare for her these days.

    1. Thanks! I was happy to see you too! Hopefully this darn sickness goes away soon. It's so gross. No energy. But, we needed to come visit because it won't happen for a VERY long time. Tickets are too expensive for us to go across the country. :/
