This weekend

This weekend we went to Milford to visit Todd's family. His cousin blessed her baby this weekend and his other cousins from Idaho came down as well. There were a few that I had never met before, and some that I had met on our wedding day, and needless to say I really didn't get to know them at all! I had a BLAST! His family is probably the funniest people I've met in a really long time. For example, we were talking about the movie I am Legend and all of a sudden his cousin turned to his other cousin and opened his mouth really wide and made the noise that the zombies do on the movie. It was so funny! He seriously looked just like the zombie guys, I really wished I could have gotten a picture with them. Anyway, they reminded me of all my old friends from high school and it was nice to just hang out. We even did kind of a Denny's run type of thing. There isn't a Denny's there but there is a little diner like Denny's, so we went there at like 11:30 at night, because the next day was Sunday and some of us were pretty tired. I had so much fun, I'm seriously thinking about taking a trip to Idaho this summer to visit them.... And no, this picture isn't of them but I hate putting posts up with out pictures... Maybe I can get some pictures from Todd's mom and then I'll post them up. I'll let you know!

Baby news!

ok, so earlier this week we went to the doctor, and got our 4th ultrasound! Yeah... that's only with this pregnancy, that's not counting with Gibson... Anyway! They did an ultrasound because when they tried with the little sonar thingy or whatever it couldn't pick up the heart beat. I know that happens a lot, in fact it happened with Gibson too, but I was still a little freaked out. So then they did an ultrasound just to make sure the baby was ok. It was 3.44 CM long and I could see the arms and legs. It's adorable and the heartbeat was strong and great! I was pretty excited about it! The awkward thing was that Merica Utley now Nelson or however you spell her name... was my nurse. yeah, that's not awkward to get a vaginal ultrasound with her in the room... yeah right!

7 things I'm thinking about

Well this is from Janell... so here we go. 1- I'm thinking about the first dream I ever had about having a baby. That was last night and I'm getting kind of excited about that. 2- I'm thinking about the papers I should be writing instead of hanging out on here. 3- I'm thinking about all the stuff I have to do today, including fixing our car's window...stress. 4- I'm thinking about the good time I had last night with our friends and having the easter dinner that was delicious! 5- I love my friends, I'm so blessed. 6 - I love my husband! He is such a dream and has helped me out so much! He's such a strength to me. 7- I honestly wish it was summer, and I was so sick anymore...

Documentaries

For my film class, I have to watch a bunch of documentaries. It's been pretty interesting. It started with Planet Earth and now it's moved to different Michael Moore films. I watched Sicko yesterday, and watching things like that I leave feeling that the United States is really screwed up, but it's good for me to talk to other people that share the same views as I do to get me straight... It's been interesting to watching the different films though. I watched a movie about birth this week as well, since it is Spring Break and I have nothing else better to do. I am now officially really nervous to go through with birth. I really don't want to have a C-section and I don't want the epidural to slow the whole process down. Since my luck with pregnancy hasn't been the best so far, I'm hoping the delivery will be a lot more smoother. We'll see!

The Pigeon is Successful!

For my class with the pigeon, we have to put them in little boxes like this called a "Skinner Box" and kind of train them to do certain things our professor tells us to do. Well our lab that we've been working on for a week is trying to get the pigeon to peck a disk, such as this pigeon is doing in the picture. Well, 5 hours later we finally got it to do what we needed it to do! We were basically so excited when it finally pecked the disc. There were some people that it only took them 28 minutes from the beginning to the end of the lab, yeah it took us 5 hours because we were all doing something different. It ended up that we had to go into another room and watch the bird from a two way mirror so he would actually do stuff. It was pretty exciting to know that we actually taught the bird to peck a disk. We were so happy!

What's up with my body?!

Ok, so this weekend has been quite the roller coaster. I have no idea what is going on with me. On Saturday we went to the temple because Todd's little brother was going through for the first time. We enjoyed our time there and then went to lunch at this awesome restaurant named Samauri 21 it's a hibachi grill and it's in St. George, I love it! After that we went to Cosco to get some of their awesome muffins. WELL.... while we were walking around there, I kind of felt like I was bleeding, but just kind of put it off thinking that I was just over analyzing things. Well we went home and I had to go to the bathroom really bad. When I went, there was blood all over. I started crying thinking that I was having a miscarriage. I put a pad on and then waited. I wasn't having any cramping really and I was expecting that... well there was some tissue that had come out as well that looked about the size our baby would have been. I figured I had passed it and that I was no longer pregnant. I spent the rest of the night sitting on our couch at my mother-in-law's house and watching Heroes. Well the next morning I still felt sick... as in pregnant sick... I still haven't had any cramps... So I told Todd to go ahead and go to church, but I wasn't feeling well and so I stayed home and watched Father of the Bride. He came home after Sacrament meeting to see if I was ok. I called my friend who had had TWO miscarriages, to see what her experience was, because I was still feeling pregnant. She just said that she had cramped really badly and that after it was done, all the pregnant symptoms were gone. So I have no idea what's going on with me. The reason I was so sick yesterday was because the night before I figured I wasn't pregnant anymore and so I didn't take my pills. Well, I was dying with a really bad stomach ache, I felt like I could throw up all day. I only did once, only because Todd kept me from walking to the Bathroom. So I'm going to call my doctor today and see what's going on. I'm completely confused with what's going on with me body! Any ideas?
