Pregnant? Or NOT Pregnant? That is the question . . .

Say What!?! Pregnant? Or NOT Pregnant? That is the question I have been getting asked a lot lately by family, friends, and neighbors. Did I gain weight? Do I look pregnant? No, I don't. I think it is more my behavior and habits that have changed that makes people think I am... maybe. Like, how I have to go to the bathroom every hour. But I'm a girl. And I drink like a gallon of water a day. Am I moody? I hope not. Do I cry a lot? No. Do I have morning sickness? No. I've been getting headaches a lot - - but they are sinus/allergy related.

"Do you have something to announce?" That is the question I was asked Sunday night while over at my in-laws house. "Uh . . . I don't think so. Why?" "You just go to the bathroom a lot, we thought maybe you were pregnant."

Ha ha - - I love Seth's family. I think they really want us to have a baby. As long as it's a boy. :)

Oh . . and the answer is . . . NOT pregnant.

Sister Fun!


This weekend, my little sis and her hubby decided to come visit me! . . . and I guess they came to see the rest of the family too. They live in Salt Lake and I hadn't seen her since my wedding.

They arrived in Mesa on Thursday night. Lyndsie, "CW", mom, dad, Seth and I all went out to lunch on Friday afternoon. "CW" really wanted what he called 'jiros'. I was confused, then I realized he meant, gyros (Pronounced: yuros). Ha ha - but he's from Colorado/Utah so we cut him some slack. He claims he was just trying to trick his wife - - sure, sure. :)



After lunch, we went back to my apartment (while Seth went back to work) and we relaxed and watched "Psyche." "CW" played video games until we were bored watching him, and then we went to look at houses.



Seth and I spent the night in Mesa because Lyndsie and "CW" were only going to be in town for 2 full days! Friday and Saturday. Friday was a good day, and Saturday was going to be a good day too.

Saturday morning, Seth and I got pre-qualified to buy a house! The lender came over to my parents house and we talked about finances. He didn't tell us anything we didn't know. But, we are so excited to start making offers on the homes we like.

After we met with the lender, Seth went over to his parents because his brother and family came in town, while my family headed off to Tuscon to visit my older sister, Kaylee, and her family.

I played with my niece, Theresa, for most of the time we were there. She followed me around and wanted me to play with her. It was so cute! It ALMOST made me want to have a baby. Almost . . . Anyway, Theresa and I danced, while my dad gave the nephews piggy-back rides, and the rest of the family talked.







Talked?? Did I say talked? I meant, steal my camera and take photos of themselves.




Ha ha-- if I didn't know they were 8 years apart, I would think they were twins. I think it is safe to say that they did not plan those facial expressions, they just happen to be the same.

Landon was so cute. He wanted me to keep taking pictures with him holding a tire to his face. He was laughing so hard.


We had a lot of fun talking and spending time together. We left at 3:45. We got home 3 hours later. Tuscon is a 2 hour drive. I guess there was an accident. We were stuck on the I-10 for 45 minutes. 30 of those minutes we were just sitting . . stopped. Not moving. So, we found a fun way to pass the time. "CW" and I switched seats (partly because I was complaining how hot it was with the sun shining on me - - what a sweet brother-in-law). We switched in the middle of the freeway. It was kind of fun to get out and walk around on the I-10. We also took pictures of ourselves. We tried to capture our "bored" and "tired" look. I think we did well.




Later that night, we got to talk and hang out some more. They left Sunday morning. It was a fun weekend. I haven't gotten to spend time with my whole family like that in a while. :)
