Scary Mullet Dream!

Okay, so I do have respect for people that still sport the mullet. I mean, seriously that's a brave thing to do. However, I do not want my future son to have a mullet.

Last night I had the craziest dream. I dreamt that our baby boy was coming early and I had to have a C-section for some reason. I'm not sure why. Anyway, the doctor said they had to do the C-section with an exacto-knife. Yeah, scary! And Kenny couldn't be there yet. He was coming later or something, so my mom was there. So then our baby boy comes out and he can walk and talk and has a full head of hair. He looked like a two-year old. Plus, he was wearing a fuzzy, blue zip-up sleeper. Weird!

So the nurse hands him to me and I get to hold him for a second and then he wants to run around the hospital room and play. At this point I was sad that I didn't get to hold my baby for very long and my mom was mad that he was running around. I asked the doctor if it was normal that he could already walk and talk. She said, that they'd had hundreds of babies that had shown some early development and that it was nothing to worry about.

Our baby at this point was still running around the room and my mom was furious. My mom goes to pick him up and pulls out something from her purse. The next thing I know she sets him down on my lap and he's got this crazy long mullet and he's wearing a flannel shirt! My mom leaves the room and Kenny comes in to see that our first baby has just been given a mullet by his Grandma.

Then I woke up and could not get back to sleep.

Can you see why I was a little freaked out?! :) Just pray for our baby that he doesn't come out with hair like this!

26 Years Young!

Today is my 26th birthday! I thought I might feel a little bit old, but I feel great! I loved being 25, but 26 is going to be a great year too. I can feel it.
Today has been a great day. My sister surprised me and took me out to lunch and then we went shopping. When I got home Kenny had made me dinner. He is the cutest person ever! He gets so creative with cooking. He made me fettucine with a portobello mushroom, asparagus, and a greek salad. It was very tasty. I love that guy! He's the best!
I've been telling him the last couple years that I wanted to learn to paint. This year he got me some acrylic paints and brushes. I'm excited to paint my first picture!
After dinner we went to my sister's house and had a birthday party. My sister had decorated with Strawberry Shortcake decorations because I wanted angel food cake with strawberries and whip cream. It was so fun. One of my nephews gave me a quarter and an airplane made out of popsicle sticks. He also gave me a card that said, "Jandi rools!" on the front. It was so cute! I'm keeping that card forever. Here are some pics of my first day of being 26!
Here is the fabulous dinner Kenny made me!

One of my friends brought me flowers last night. It was really sweet of her!

These are my 26 year old feet! I have always liked taking pictures of feet for some reason. Sorry if this is gross to some people. I know not everyone appreciates feet the way I do. :)

All in all, my birthday was wonderful!

The Past Few Years!

We've given in and decided to create a blog! If you haven't seen us the past few years here's what we've been up to...
We met, fell in love, and got engaged all in Rexburg, Idaho.
Were married on the only sunny Saturday in December 2004 in the Portland, Oregon Temple.

Then we moved around the next couple of years from Idaho, California, and Arizona. Now we are living in Oregon...
...and producing babies! Okay, well one baby is on the way. He is due December 19, 2008. Here I am at 23 weeks. The bump has seriously grown like crazy the last couple of weeks. This little boy in my belly is our first baby. He was not very shy during our ultrasound last week. I'm glad we were able to see what he is though.
