Pictures!!!

As I sit outside letting Miss Zoey roam the grass and Micah mows the lawn I thought I would post an update! And even with pictures! So yet again it will probably be a long one. Ha! 

Lets start with the pregnancy. I am currently in my 39th week and this baby can't come soon enough. Am I uncomfortable? Ummmm how honest should I be? Pregnancy wise? No achy-ness? I HAVE THE WORLDS LARGEST KNOT IN MY BACK THAT WON'T GO AWAY AND IT'S KILLING ME! Other then that. I really can not complain. What can I say it's over all, been a simple pregnancy. I'm not measuring big, but rather on the small side. Just how small? I'm not sure. A few weeks ago t was two weeks behind. Whichever it so we got to see our little nugget one last time before the big day. We do know that he is measuring a couple days ahead of schedule though and he was at the time measuring 6.5 lbs (but those are estimations) so all is well. Over all I have gained 25 small pounds. I am not sure how to tell you that's all I have gained. Other then maybe the fact that, I don't eat as often as most pregnant people do. Nor as much. I get nauseated if I stuff myself too full. And I don't hardly get so hungry to the point of starving. Most the time I have to remind myself to eat. And that is probably how I have managed to only gain 25 lbs. 

What else have we done recently? Well we took Zoey down to Pleasant Grove so she could have her first, of I'm sure many, show and tell experience! On Mother's Day Micah's nephews saw her for the first time. Annamarie suggested we bring her down for a day of show an tell so we did just that. It was actually a lot of fun! 
First off when we got to Annamarie's Jace came running to the door and yelled from the other side, "I'm coming Heidi! Don't worry! I'm coming!" Oh that kid never disappoints!  We played ball and Micah lost in a grueling game or two of  chess. It was intense! Those three year old rules are tuff stuff to follow! 
Then off we went to Jaron's class. As soon as we got there an I walked in I got asked, "are you pregnant?" Gee I'm glad I was able to say yes. Or else I wouldn't have taken that very well. Ha. The class went CRAZY! I felt bad for his teacher! It is safe to say Miss Zoey was a HIT!
We then went to Jayden's class and they liked her but don't go as crazy. We then went and got some yummy BYU creamery ranch with Annamarie and Jace. It's also safe to say this ranch is AMAZING! So much better then hidden valley ranch. She then treated us to...JCW's it's pretty good and well worth it! I couldn't finish my hamburger! It was MASSIVE! Then we went back and hung out a little longer then went to UVU to talk about Micah's financial aid. And home we went. 

We had a baby shower!!!! 
Icahn sisters threw one for us on the 18th! We got some good stuff and I can't wait for the Woods one after the baby comes! After the shower Micah helped me put up the pack-n-play and we also put the car seat bases in the cars. 
Yes this is baby Blake's crib for now. And will be for who knows how long. We only have one bedroom and are making it work. If we end up with two then we will be get if him a real crib but until then we dot have the room so this it is! :) it will be nice to have it at the foot of the bed though! Won't have to go far for him! It is great thy we got one with a little bassinet and changing thingy. That's something we didn't have to buy. 

We have been fishing with Pete! Poor kid hasn't had good luck with law enforcement up here the past two times he has been fishing. First time he got caught without his fishing license by the warden. No worries though. They were able to look him up in the system and see that he does, in fact, have a current license to fish. He just wasn't expecting to fish that day so he didn't bring it. The next time a stupid highway patrol dude pulled him over for a expired registration. It wasn't even a month yet. But we got his car inspected the next day and it passed so he can come up and prove his car is now registered. 
Memorial Sunday was and is always a fun time! Micah's uncle and aunt come up with their kids and grand kids and we bbq! We also roast s'mores and have a good ole time! Here is crazy Jace again! He smashed the marshmallow in his face before he ate it. Lol where he comes from we don't know. 
Hen he got way into roasting and concentrated hard to get the perfect marshmallow. 
It must have been a success cause hen he came to show me his s'more.

Gary planted the garden last weekend! I didn't think he was planting one. But he did! I am excited! Tomatoes and corn! What else do you need? Micah started helping him at the end. 
 And last but not least! I FINALLY got around to etching all my Pyrex dishes! I have been wanting to etch Moeller into the bottom or side of them all. So that it is never mistaken who they belong to ;) 
I did it on Sunday because we had to have them all for measuring purposes so we hauled them all down and got it all cut  out and I decided to do a trial run. Was so excited with how cute it turned out that I ended up finishing them all that same night. Don't judge. 
Like I said most are on the bottom. But the single serving ones I put on the side of the dish.

Oh one last picture Emily came up last week and we went on a walk. She was amazed at how big Sampson is. And yet he is a small Clyde's dell! Lol he is our fellow ward members horse and the my keep him on a property a couple lots down from us in the spring/summer/fall months.

Out of Shape!

Holy cow guys! I am so outta shape! I mean I was before I got pregnant but its even worse now! Let me give you an example...

Yesterday right after dinner like literally, me and Micah left to go on a walk. I usually have to beg Micah to go with me. Even get down to the nitty gritty guilt trip type of beg! Not yesterday. I told him we should go on a walk. I was shocked when he didn't argue to much. K I admit we don't argue. And I don't mean to brag by saying that. But we both hate contention so we are really good at avoiding it in our marriage. He kinda actually agreed! It probably helped that Sunday morning he mentioned he needed to start running THIS week or else his suit pants won't fit him next week. So he didn't go running yesterday. Usually if he goes on a walk with me we have to make it kinda short since he doesnt like them. Well it was his idea to walk about three miles or so. I was practically bursting at the seams with excitement. I love walks. Let alone in up here in beautiful Midway! So we start out walking to the top of our street (we have done this hike before while I have been pregnant and it wasn't easy then. So I haven't wanted to make him do it unless he says let's walk to the pond and back because it isn't too nice by any means) and start up the road that takes you up over the mountain to either Park City or Salt Lake. We then "turned around" if you wanna call it that, and walked up past the Wasatch State Park Pond. It's a fun little pond by Wasatch golf course. We stopped for a break, k not really, there were people fly fishing on the Pond. Yup you heard that right! FLY FISHING ON THE POND!! Why they think its acceptable to do that is beyond me. Fly fishing is for the river. Ha! I guess it provides good practice. Two of the three needed it after all. Anyways while standing there I caught this picture 
          And in that moment suddenly the fact that this walk almost put me into labor, k not really, but it felt like it would was suddenly worth it! I am so incredibly grateful to live where this is literally in my backyard. I love Midway in the spring\summer time. I hate it in the winter time though. I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that I love being outside either! 😉

So after the walk we got home and I could barely move and the bottom of my feet hurt like no other and I have a heating pad on my lower back as I type this. But I would trade it for anything.

Happenings

Alright I finally am updating my blog with photos!!!! Wahoo! I love having a iPhone. It makes a nice convenient camera. And makes it even easier for me to update the blog with photos! It's the blogger app and I think you should get it!

Well to start off here is a recent update.

Long post sorry.

Micah- Micah recently, like with in the past three weeks, got put in the Elders Quorum Presidency as the secretary. How great is that! He doesn't love it so much ;) he has big "promises" he will haw "big" callings and is starting to believe that this is he beginning of those. He is quite worried. Ha such a humble man. He has had the golfing itch lately since the weather has been getting nicer. He went for free yesterday with work so they could get "inspired" for their new jewelry line, golfing jewelry. How the owner thinks the line will do well is beyond us. But hey Micah got a free round of golf out if it so he isn't complaining....much....how you are supposed to get "inspired" about golf Jewelry while jumping the golf cart and doing donuts in it as well is also beyond me. Ya Micah was frustrated to say the least. He was hoping to get in a full round of golf but since the other guys were messing around they called it quits on hole 12. He is picking up a side job here and there and we are excited for a little extra money. It will be nice with the baby on its way and me quitting next week! Tuesday Micah came home from work and asked me if I wanted to go look for golf balls with him. I happily agreed since I hadn't seen him all day and wanted to hang out with him. So across the street we went with a grocery sack in hand, the kid was pretty excited. He figured if he went hunting for range balls he could go hit them for free. Range balls are the yellow ones that you only use for the driving range. (Where you practice hitting the golf ball in case you didn't know what it was in reference to golf.) once we got to were he planned on hunting for them I told him I will look and you bend over to pick them up. He happily agreed. Bending over at 34 weeks isn't the easiest to do. I was kinda sad I didn't get a picture of him looking for the balls. But I thought about it AFTER we hunted for them. In the midst of looking for range balls he also found some actually golfing balls and was quite a happy camper when he found some good ones. I guess those Pro-V 1X golf balls i got him for christmas LAST YEAR just aren't quite what he thought ;) jk he would rather mess around with a used one then the Pro-V 1X's, those puppies are quite expensive. Like $100 for two boxes. But he is worth it. After he was satisfied with his loot, we walked back home and he soaked them for five minutes and washed each individual one by hand. After that we then walked over the the range and planned on looking like we bought a bucket of balls, but actually saw a partially used bucket already on the range, so he pulled his loot out of his golf bag and poured his collection into the bucket and began to happily hit his free bucket of balls. I'm sure he felt so smart for coming up with the idea. He saved $8 dollars after all! (That money saver! At least one of us are;) he is turning me into one as well)

Heidi- where to start? Holy smokes I am getting uncomfortable and I still have six weeks to go! Eek! Between the heartburn swelling and the lack air to my lungs I am really ready for this baby boy! Besides the fact that I can't wait to hold and cuddle him and smell him and wipe his little bum! I am getting quite big and people who come into the pharmacy keep on saying I look like I am about to pop! Ha! Funny thing is, is that I am finally measuring small. I say finally because I would have measured way far along at the whining had my doctor measured me. Instead she would just say every appointment wow girl! You are defiantly bigger then you really are. Thanks! ;) it never did bother me. I knew I was showing more then normal. Errands and work are really taking their little tole on my body. I am getting so warn out these days so easily. I am glad I only have three more days of my working career! I am sure I will go back to work one day but not for a long time! I am fortunate enough to stay at home and raise my child. Thanks to Micah supporting me 100% in that! :) I am planning on using the next five (hopefully two and a half;)) weeks to get organized, declutter, clean, and get ready for the baby. I am still crossing my fingers that we get a second bedroom and so eventually I can decorate the nursery in the nautical theme. But I'm sure that wont happen until AFTER he comes. And that's okay. As long as it happens I will be happy. Don't get me wrong I am so thankful that we have the opportunity to save money and live in Micah's parents apartment but a one bedroom with a baby is quite a tight fit. But if needs be we will gladly make it work. :) I recently made the cutest door hanging for the apartment door! And I am in SO.MUCH.LOVE! I can't stand it! Lol I'm not sure if pictures will post how I want. They might all show up at the end of the post. Hopefully they show up where I post them though. If not sorry.

This past weekend Micah and I got to use a night of his parents time share up at snowbird ski resort and spend the night! I was quite anxious to get up there and was getting frustrated when our time Fran kept on getting pushed back. I guess you could say I don't do so well when my time that i get to spend with Micah is interfered but who can blame me. We all like to spend some quality time with our spouse right! I love when me and Micah get our own time together. When both of our full attention is on each other. And not being split. And since it's getting closer to my due date I am really savoring the time! Anyways we went to go look at the flight shops before we went swimming but they were already closed. So we went back and went swimming instead. And then came back and crashed. Ha! We got up early to come down to Salt Lake like 7am early! Yes on a Saturday but we had a lot to get done. While we were down in Salt Lake we went to babies r us to get a few bottles, since we haven't had a baby shower yet (in two weeks we will have one) I wanted to get those now since its not a common baby gift item. I also wanted to grab a couple of binkis. I let Micah pick them out and guess why he chose. Foot ball ones! Ha! So fun! I love that I am having a boy! I think little boy stuff is so much fun! We had the option between baseballs, footballs, basketballs, and soccer balls. I was a little surprised to see Micah pick foot balls. He did kick for his high school team but its not a favorite sport of his. He loves basketball more but he bought he basket ball binki looked more like a tiger. So football it is. His uncles will be so proud of those binkis I'm sure!

Well I think that will sum up this postN it is quite long! But hey! At least I'm a posting! I need to do a little post here and there. Maybe that will be my next goal. ;)

Sorry guys!

So I was just looking at my last post on the web and noticed its still a Christmas background. I may or may my be slightly embarrassed about that. And I may or may not get that changed soon. So in the meantime. Enjoy my oh so festive background! :)

Life lately

Man! Where has the time gone! I thought it seriously had been a month and a half two months maybe since I last blogged. Ummm HELLO LIFE! It's been since JANUARY!

I suck at this game.

But to hopefully redeem myself I downloaded the blogging app on my phone! Does that count? Boy I sure hope so!

Anyways. Let's see where to start. Ummmm ah yes the pregnancy.

I am at 32 weeks tomorrow! Again WHERE HAS THE TIME GONE!

It has been going pretty good over all. I started to get nauseated every now and then again. Umm I have a huge knot in my back I think just developed that I am blaming on the pregnancy. Ha! And I am jut starting to get to the uncomfortable stage. I say that like I should have been there a while ago. Ha. It's funny, at work people ask me, or say rather, "HOLY COW YOU LOOK LIKE YOUR GONNA POP!!!!" Well guess what! Surprise! I'm measuring small! HALLELUJAH! I didn't think the day would come! I mean my doctor never measured me for the first 24 weeks (give or take) because I looked like I was further along then I really was. So me and Micah are thinking that I am just calling down on the growing. Which I hope I don't measure too far behind! I want that little Blake here STAT! I cannot wait to hold him and cuddle and kiss him and comfort him while he cries! And change his cute little bum! I seriously am hoping he comes at 37 weeks! I don't know how long I can wait.

I am quitting my job in a couple of weeks! I don't want to have to be stressed at last minute hoping he doesn't come until I am ready. So I am taking the whole month of May and what time I have in June to clean and deck utter and whatnot.

Micah is still working and will be starting school again in the fall. He applied for his associates and got that! (Which why wouldn't he, the kid as a 3.6 overall GOA) (I married a smart one for sure) and he got that all whole dating girls (yes he dated other girls then just me and i just admitted that on my blog) and working full time and at one point two jobs! The kid loves to learn! He just told me he watches nova channel on the days I have to work late. He just finds shows like that interesting. (he will be a great TV watching buddy Fiel!) ha!

We are both super excited for the baby and can't wait to meet him. I am excited for this summer especially because of that and because my brother and his family will be here. My sister in law is hoping I will cross my legs and hold in Blake until she gets here June 15th (the DAY before my due date) but I am not making any promises ;)

Well that about wraps up this post. I will try to be better now that I won't be working and whatnot!

In the meantime I will leave you with a pretty picture I caught of Mt Timpanogos and the sunrise few weeks ago on our way down to our nephews baby blessing.

Life Lately

Sorry for the lack of posting. Life has been CRAZY lately. Between Micah's birthday/finals and then getting ready for Melinda's wedding and having Anthony and Kristie here for two weeks blogging hasn't exactly made my most important list. I would be lying if I said I haven't been enjoying life lately. Course when your married to Micah who couldn't be loving life. He sure keeps things interesting and fun. And add Anthony and Kristie to the mix and it just gets so much better. I haven't really been able to get to know them. They live in Florida, we skype every once in awhile but thats just not the same as getting to know them in person. and what better time to do so over Christmas. Thats right. They came into town on December 15th for Melinda's wedding. When they first got here they went straight to her parents house and spent some time with them before her parents went to Singapore for Christmas. So that meant they spent the majority of their time with us Moellers. And Boy was it fun. Kristie reminds me so much of my sister in law Becky. Just super out going and easy to talk to and the life of the party. Anthony is fun too. He can be fun and serious. Ha he is fun to be around. And the kids. Oh well thats just a whole different deal. They are some of the most well behaved and funny kids ever. It is so cute to see them all with Little Mason. None of the Kids can get mad at that little boy and quite frankly I can see why. They just look at him staring at them wanting what they have and they share with him without complaining or anything. Great little eaters and fun to tease. Parker is quiet but if you give him time to warm up he will eventually talk to you. He may not say much but some is better then non. Mckenzie, well she is a little ball of fire with fashionista coming in a close second. Remember how I said they are living in Florida? Ya well half the time she was here, I swear that girl was in a dress. She picked out her clothes everyday and Kristie says she will change her outfit multiple times a day. And she ALWAYS LOOKS SUPER CUTE in the outfits she picks out. Wish I had her knack with picking out clothes. Kaitlynn. Oh Kaitlynn. She is a little feisty ball of trouble. HA one time she was on Gary and Lisa's computer knowing darn well what she was doing. Micah caught her clicking on the internet, (mind you she is 3) and Micah very calmly said What are you doing? Not in a mad tone or anything. And she immediately fell to the floor and crawled under the computer desk and started crying and shaking. It was the saddest and funnest thing at the same time. She ran to her dad and wouldn't calm down without him holding her. Then there is Mason. Mason has the cutest most round baby belly I have ever seen. He will just follow other kids around and throw stuff into the open toilet. That is if his mom doesn't pull him away first. But he likes me. Just like Mckenzie and Parker. Kaitlynn did too...at first. I must have made her get mad at me for something. By the time they left she wouldn't look at me. But she is so darling.

Christmas was fun this year. I got a gorgeous Snowflake ring designed and made by the one and only Micah Blake, that little lover of mine. Its too big and he thinks I don't like it. Little does he know. I just don't wear it right now for fear of loosing the $1,800 peice of jewelry I now am in charge of. I got him a Dewalt Drill and bits for the Drill. And Ice fishing stuff which we already put to use on New Years Day. We got some cute little baby books for Baby "B" from The Spencer's. And Grammie got Baby "B" some washcloths for bath time and a cute little Lion perfect for hanign from the carseat to keep baby company in the back seat of the car. Maybe it will keep the boogie man away! I sure hope so. That nasty Boogie Man. Pete gave us the first season of Duck Dynasty. Perfect for our current obcession. and I got Rubber things to wear when we go ice fishing so I can not slip on the ice and Micah kept the massage pillow. Perfect present babe. Now he doesn't have to worry about massaging my neck when I have tension headaches. We got a candy overload in our stocking. Thats what you get when you are in charged of your own stockings.

Well thats all for now. I just got told I need to go into work and help with Prescriptions.. They are swampped. boooo for working on a Friday Night. Pray I get to leave at 7!!!!!

I will try to get pictures for next time.

Better Late then Never

So here it is four and a half months after we got married and I am just getting around to starting a blog. I am a slacker. I guess a good place to start out is telling a little about ourselves. We met back at the beginning of October 2011. Micahs' cousin lined us up on a blind date. He kept on bugging both of us to go out with each other. We both kept on saying no not right now, because we were hoping it was going to work out with the person we had been interested in and sorta dating (if you could call it that at least for me) at the time. So finally I gave up on the other person and was perfectly content being single for a while. I just finished helping my mom plan another wedding/wedding dinner for another brother for the second summer in a row. I wasn't at all interested in dating anyone let alone someone who is a prospect for marriage. I mean lets face it, you marry who you date right? Riley had finally quite asking me about going out with his cousin. I figured I was in the clear and had given him enough no's that he would give up. I should give a little background on his cousin. I was in the singles ward with Riley G. and was on FHE committee with him. He is my brother 'Rileys age and they attended jr high and high school together. I knew who Riley Gardner was but never really talked to him until we were on the committee together. Well right after I had decided life was good being single Riley asked me yet again if I would go out with his cousin. I agreed. Figuring it would only be one . date. After all, very rarely, did blind dates go past one date for me. We went out on our first date Oct. 8th 2011. We doubled with Riley and my friend and went to Cornbellys. Its a "Fall Festivity" Thanksgiving Point puts on for a while every Fall. We went and did a corn maze and some other activities. It was actually a fun date. We ended up splitting up from Sara and Riley in the corn maze but it was fun to get to know Micah better. Well I must had done something right because the next night Micah texted me and we talked every day after that. I don't think we went a day from the night of our first date on from talking to each other. On our second date Micah took me up to Park City and showed me the Jewelry store he works for and we then went into Midway and went to this "disappearing road" and then went to a lookout point over the valley and talked for a long time. It was a great date. Well we eventually went on another date and another and eventually got engaged and then married. We got engaged February 25th 2012 and Married July 13th 2012 in the Mt. Timpanogos LDS Temple for Time and All Eternity. I will save the engagement story for another post. It is a good story. We are currently living in Midway Utah in the apartment attached to his parents house. Micah currently works full time for Park City Jewelers as a designer and jeweler. (yes, I am lucky, he made my wedding ring.) And loves it. He is also currently going to school part time working on his bachelors in Business. He hopes to be able to help take over the business once the current owner retires and gives it to his son. (the owners son and Micah are good friends and have been since they were young.) We will see where life takes us though. I am currently training to be a pharmacy tech under Micahs' dad in Heber at Days Market. I am loving that. It is fun to be behind the counter instead of picking up the prescription. All though I do want to do hair, it is currently not possible and worth while to put my money into a salon renting a booth when we still are not for certain, where we will end up eventually. All though we would like to stay in the Heber Valley. We plan on eventually owning a house that I can have a salon in one day to make it possible for me to do hair full time or as needed. Three months after we were married we found out we were pregnant. We honestly couldn't be happier. I was on birth control but was feeling depressed and my insurance policy doesn't cover much birth control options so we opted to go off it and trust in Heavenly Father that we would end up pregnant when we were supposed to. We both love kids and couldn't wait for the day to start a family. We are so excited for it to be happening so fast for us. A lot of people I know are struggling with infertility for miscarrying a lot that I personally was shocked it happened the next month for us. I am currently 12 weeks along and am due June 16th 2013. We cannot wait. We are hoping for a boy but will take either. We have names picked out all ready and had one for a boy before we were even married. We have chosen Blake if its a boy. It is Micahs' middle name and his moms maiden name. If its a girl we are going to name her Bostyn. Micah insists that Boston is a girl name and I disagree. I finally told him if we are going to name our girl Bostyn we have to spell it with a "tyn" to make it girly. Luckily Micah really liked it spelled that way and so it will be. Well I think that is a pretty good post for our first one. I will try to keep up on this but make no promises! ;)
