Memory Game!

The Memory Post

1. As a comment on my blog, leave a memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you know me a little or a lot, anything you remember! If we're only blogging friends, write about a post that is the most memorable for you.

2. Next, if you feel so inclined, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. If you leave a memory about me, I'll be sure to write one about you...!

3. If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.

Summer Fun



This is just a mix of the summer! We went to the zoo and those pictures I was about 23 weeks and still growing. We took the kids that I nanny with us and well that was interesting. 3 kids plus Nick and I...I should say 4 kids and myself. But we really enjoyed walking around and looking and all the animals. Nick and I maybe adults by age but at heart we are big kids.
We were just in Park City about 2 weekends ago. Just a little get away. It was really nice to just completely relax and not worry or think about a thing. We went shopping out to dinner, spent more money then we should but enjoyed every minute together! The pictures of the street market don't give it justice at all. It was nice walking around and looking at all the over priced hand made things but the hippies were just unbelievable. Now I don't mind hippies at all but I got my fair share of them that day and Nick was just in shock basically! Oh and when I was sitting for about the 1000th time some guy was looking for something out of his backpack for his 2 dogs. Well some resturant owner or something offered to get bowls of water for the dogs since it was so hot and they needed it. The hippie then replies with No thanks they only drink beer! Are you kidding me? I just started laughing I couldn't do anything else. I kept listening and he couldn't find his wallet to buy some beer for the dogs!

Stadium of Fire - 4th of July



I LOVE FIREWORKS! This was by far the best 4th of July ever. Minus having to sit in a stadium filled with Miley Cyrus fans ages 2-50 it was great! Glen Beck started everything of so perfect, I knew Nick liked him but to me it was just another person but he was talking about our country and what we stand for and everything and got choked up over it. And with my pregnant hormones I was crying a little to. But they had sky divers come in from every military branch and then BOOM a giant things of fireworks started. I was so completely scared I just started crying..shaking a little to but it scared the crap out of me! Then they had the stadium of fire dancers which was about 1300 girls dancing for 7 minutes. They performed all the olympic sports in their dance, while they were dancing people from each would come out and do whatever the sport was. (they had people ride through on their bikes, karate kids, soccer...you get the point) Then the Blue Man Group came out and they really were amazing. I love these guys, Nick loved them too! And then wonderful Miley Cyrus came out. Don't get me wrong I think she is cute and everything but my goodness this child has people just wrapped around her finger. It was cute seeing all the little girls singing along and dancing but then there was the old ladies 40+ sitting next to Nick singing and dancing. Now if they had kids with them or something this wouldn't be scary but it was just them. A little frightning if you ask me! Then the giant fireworks...I never in my life have seen that many at one time. I was actually getting kind of tired of them after about 20 minutes, but either way it was amazing!

Doughnut Falls



Nick and I decided to drive up one of the canyons and somehow he talked me into walking up to doughnut falls. Here I am about 5 months pregnant in the heat walking uphill....not a mix that I recommend. I was so completely tired and just ready to pass out! But it really was beautiful up there. I would go again...when Im not 5 months pregnant.
I feel so bad for Nick because there are so many things he wants to do and I physically can't. Poor guy but he is being great about it all and making sure that we still are doing plenty that I can handle.
I really was hoping Nick wouldn't post the pictures of me and the huge pregnant tummy but oh well. All of you that have been wanting to see pictures...well there you go! I just have a hard time with the non stop growing tummy...I really wonder how much bigger can I get???

Our first little one

Photobucket

I probably should have told everyone sooner and Im really sorry but things have been crazy lately. We found out we are having a little boy...Neacel (like Diesel but with a N) Parker. During the whole ultrasound he was moving around, it was cute to watch and feel it at the same time. Everything looks great, he is obviously eating well by the looks of it. We got to see him yawn twice which was really neat and even though he looks kinda like an alien he is to cute! The technician would go to take measurements of his leg and everytime she would go to freeze the picture he would move. He never stops, its a 24 hour a day thing. I read that the baby only actually kicks a few times an hour and I just started laughing. If Neacel only kicked a few times I would love it, but he is non stop. We are so excited to have him, Im hoping for sooner then later. We will see what the doctor says Monday but according to the ultrasound Im due the first week of November!
