Here is a picture of me at 37 weeks and some other pictures from the last couple of weeks!

baby update

I just had another appointment. The doctor said she would still induce me on the 29th, HALLELUJAH! She seems to think I will go a week early on my own anyway,but if I don't she will induce me. I am only at a 1 with 30% effaced. She was a little hesitant last appointment because my stomach was measuring so small but the ultrasound confirmed that the baby is still big! Not two weeks bigger like every other ultrasound, but still 1 1/2 weeks bigger. My fundal height today is still measuring 3 weeks behind so who knows where this baby is hiding. I have so much to do in these next two weeks, I just hope to have the energy to get it all done. I still have one more final and I haven't even gotten any of my baby stuff out yet. Also, we still don't have a name or a car seat for her! Poor girl, you would think we have forgotten about her.

I'll post a picture of my 37 week belly soon!

Thanksgiving 2011

This year we spent our Thanksgivning in Utah! Back when we bought the tickets we knew I would be very pregnant and were a little worried about traveling so late in the pregnancy but it was fine. We flew home 2 days before 35 weeks when you are not allowed to fly anymore. My family was in Utah too so it was great to be able to see both of our families in one trip, especially because we will not be going anywhere for Christmas. I only took maybe 3 pictures the entire vacation so I got these from my dad's phone.

My family came for my newest nephew Kellen's baby blessing. He is so cute and little and looks just like his older brother. It was fun to hold him and get a little preview of what we are going to have soon.

Jade with Great Grandma Peterson

Most of my cousins. We all have freaky eyes because of the cell phone!

Dan's family just finished building this beautiful house in Provo. It is seriously humongous and we were lucky to see it finished. It is so nice that when everyone is visiting now we all have a place to stay and so much room for all the kids.

The best part of the new house is the hot tub!! The max capacity is 27 people. No wonder Jade kept calling it the pool!

And here is a shot of me at 34 1/2 weeks. I'm starting to feel super uncomfortable. My fundal height is still measuring two weeks smaller but I can tell this baby is still big. I have an ultrasound tomorrow to see how big she really is.

The last day of our trip I chopped 8 inches off my hair! I will post a picture later.

Pumpkin patch, Trunk or Treat, and CANDY!!

Jade carving her first pumpkin. Too bad it didn't even last a week outside. Within a couple of days it was all shriveled and gross!

We went back to the pumpkin patch for Camden's birthday! It was fun to be there with friends this time. Here is Jade and Ike.

I made these jello worms for the haunted house for the ward's trick or treat party. They turned out awesomely gross!

Trunk-or-Treat!

This year Jade wanted to be a cupcake! I knew she would be super excited to be anything that had to do with food!

Music Makers was on Halloween day so the kids wore their costumes. It was really hard to get a good picture of them.

Here is "Jade's" candy. When Dan and I put her to bed last night we went straight to the candy and organized it all like we use to do when we were kids. Too bad whenever Jade could choose the candy she would pick a sucker. She was happy to get 4 candy corns and we will enjoy the rest!

(even though it's the last thing we need too)

Underwood Farms

Every year we go to Underwood Farms to pick our pumpkins! We were happy to have Stevie come along too. I don't know if any of you have seen the video floating around you tube of the cute little girl who gets a big surprise from her parents that they were going to Disneyland that day for her her birthday and she starts bawling because she's so excited. Anyway, Jade watched it a couple of times last week and when we walked into the pumpkin patch she stated totally crying. I asked her what was wrong and she said that she just was so happy to be there. Haha, I don't know if that was really the reason why she was crying but I thought it was funny. We had so much fun and luckily it was much cooler than last year.

Here was Jade her first year in 2009 on the tractor ride!

2010

and today!

Here lips were blue because we had a yummy snow cone that had unlimited refills! I guess makes up for it being 5 dollars.

This was us last night, we had a family movie night and I even made us all a homemade Wendy's frosty! They tasted just like them!

We get to go again in a couple of weeks for Camden's birthday and we can't wait!
