*Early Easter in B-Town*

I took a short trip to Blanding last week to hang out with my family. Unfortunately, I had to leave Bryce home to work but it was nice to give my family my full attention because we all know. . . . .soon there will be a baby boy getting ALL of that attention.:)

* * *

The kids and I decided to have a mini Easter a week early.

We colored & decorated Easter eggs, which they loved!!

Check out that art work!!

We also decided to have an Easter egg hunt in the front yard. Aunt Bitny hid the eggs and the kids had a blast finding their eggs they colored.

Fun times with Jett & Tenli!!

It was a great little vacation from work & house duties! I always enjoy hanging out with my mom & dad and allowing them to spoil me.......and the baby.:) You're never too old for that right??

Thanks MOM & DAD for a great week!

Unless I'm in Labor......

If you are a Twilight fan you already know that the Eclipse movie has a release date of June 30th.

That is precisely one week before my due date. . . . but you better believe that this 39 week pregnant Twilight fan will be there with my XL Eclipse t-shirt on checking out Jacob Black (aka Taylor Lautner).:) Is there anything wrong with that??

Or maybe I'll make a t-shirt with an arrow pointing to my belly that says "Future Alice Fan".:) HA!

I love the new Eclipse trailer and am guilty of watching it just a couple times already.:)

If you haven't seen it yet, here it is!

(You'll have to push pause on My Music first.)

A Weekend with Mom & Dad- -

So my wonderful parents made the LONG 12 hour drive to Lovelock this last weekend and I enjoyed every minute of their stay. We did some shopping, baby preparation, relaxing, cooking and played a little Mexican Train. Parents are the best!! I'm not sure what I would do without their love & support.

My dad brought his truck so that we could pick-up some of the baby furniture in Reno. It was quite the task getting them up the apartment stairs and into the apartment. Very few injuries were sustained thank heavens! The armoire and dresser were in complete form, no assembly required, so you can only imagine how huge and heavy they were.

I love the furniture though, it's beautiful! My dad says it should last through at least 6 kids. My response: Very funny dad! Keep dreamin'!

I saw this closet divider project on my friend Jessie's blog and thought it was super cute so my mom and I worked on some this weekend. I think they turned out really cute! I haven't put them up in the closet yet but I'm excited to see how they'll look.

Obviously my parents have never seen me pregnant before so I caught them staring at my belly a lot throughout the weekend. I kept having to remind them to look at my face when I'm talking.:) They're convinced it grew during the 4 days that they were here and I think they're right! It has really gotten big in the last 2 weeks and what Bryce and I have both realized is that it's not half as big as it's going to get. Yikes!!!

You'll notice in this picture that my mom looks like she getting pushed around by my belly. It happens a lot lately. I keep forgetting that it's there. I pushed Bryce into the closet with it the other day.:) This whole pregnancy thing is so fun right now and I'm enjoying almost every minute of it. Sorry you all have to hear about it all the time but it consumes my life right now.:) Hope you don't mind.

ONe oF ThREe- -

So I've mentioned a couple times that the Shields Family is expecting three baby boys this year and we're pretty excited about it!!

Well, baby boy #1 arrived February 1st and Bryce and I had the opportunity to go to Utah Valentine's Day weekend and meet our new nephew.

Let me tell you, he is adorable & precious to say the least!

Meet Wyatt Jay Shields- -

While we were there baby Wyatt was blessed and it was so great to be able to be there for that. His daddy did a great job with his blessing too.

Congratulations to Scott & Anjela!
They have such a cute little family!

I am so so excited to hold my baby boy! Being around baby Wyatt made me super baby hungry so I'm really glad that I know I'll have one of those precious babies all to myself in July!! Wahoo!!:)

Growing Baby Bump :)

This post is in request of my mom.

What momma wants, momma gets.:)

* * *

"The Bump" is really growing....... seriously. I'm actually enjoying the pregnancy look right now but I think it's almost time to buy some maternity pants. Oh I am dreading that shopping day! I will hold off as long as I can but sitting down in my tight jeans is really starting to smash the baby.:)

20 Weeks

My face looked fat in this picture and I learned a great trick from my pregnant friend Jackie about just cropping out the face.:) And wah-lah, belly bump pic without a fat face.:)

Have a great week everyone!
