Tim's Out Here!

One semester over and a new one to begin...
Tim graduated on Thursday and on Friday almost the whole family came up to drop him off. I don't know if you read this Sarah, but I missed you.
Reid flew out Thursday morning to attend Tim's graduation, unfortunately I couldn't get off work to come. It was the first time Reid and I have been apart since we were married and of course being pregnant and emotional I cried when I went to bed. The family (mom, dad, Ashley, Jeff, Reid, Tim, Kristen, Salem, Cole, Emma, and Averlyn) left California about noon and got to Orem at one in the morning Saturday. What a long drive! They are so amazing to make that long trip!
The rest of Saturday was kind of a long blur. We went shopping for last minute things for Tim, got Tim checked into his dorm room, had lunch at the mall, went back to the BYU bookstore, went back home or shopping (again) before the family BBQ, ate lots and with good company and went back home late. It was exhausting but fun. The worst part was that everyone (except Tim) had to leave today :( A very short but wonderful trip...
now some pictures

What's up June?

I was doing pretty good at blogging last month and so far nothing this month... yet.
Well, last week I was sick with a sinus infection that hit pretty hard. I felt bad missing work and making Reid take care of me right before finals, but thank goodness for medicine and that I am all better. This week is Reid's finals, and then he will be a senior based on his credits, but because of his major, he still needs more. Thursday this week he plans on leaving me (just for one night) and going home to see Tim's graduation! Then he'll drive back with his family and we can get Tim settled in for school next Monday! I can't wait for the family to come out even if it is just for a short time.
Things are starting to get a little bit bigger around here (meaning my belly). Ashley's due date got pushed up to the 10th of September, but so far I'm still scheduled for the 9th. It's a race Ashley! :)
I'll try to keep things updated, I can't blame anything on being sick anymore. Well here's a picture at 27 weeks

Some pictures I promised

So, I'm still working on getting a team photo, but here at the pictures of Reid's leg after sliding into the bases...


Thank goodness Reid is a certified EMT because there is no way I could have bandaged that!
It's still pretty sore he says, but it starting to get better

Sorry I don't have any pictures to share; Wednesday was a crazy day! As always Reid had school and I have work, but yesterday Reid picked me up and we went to the Provo temple for ward temple night (really early though) and after that Reid had his final game of softball before playoffs next week. I forgot to pack the camera for the game, hopefully I'll be able to get a team picture up here soon. It was pretty fun.. our friend Jon came with and made feel a lot less ridiculous not cheering for Reid. He did it all, with a little help from me. (I get really self-conscious that I wont be heard or that I'll be too loud and look dumb so I normally don't cheer at all) Anyway the other team was up first and "Mark's Team" (that's the name of Reid's team) didn't let them score in the first inning. Reid was the third batter up the first time and in that inning they brought 5 home! The rest of the game was pretty close after that. Towards the end I thought we were done for. In the bottom of the last inning ("Mark's Team" was at bat) the pitcher for the other team kept walking everybody! We caught up and with bases loaded we broke the tie and we won! Our first real win of the season! Reid had an awesome catch in left-center diving and then holding up the ball to prove he caught it! I don't think I've ever been so impressed by him. He got scrapped up a bit (i'll get a picture later) sliding in to 3rd base and home. It was awesome... their team did great!

Softball

This spring and summer Reid is on an inter-mural softball team for BYU. He did it last year and decided with his school schedule, that this would be his outlet this summer. The season is pretty short, only four games and then playoffs (which we don't know when that actually starts), but then there is another season right after. I've been to all of the practices they've had and the games Reid could go to and will probably go to all the rest. This past game I brought the camera and got a few good pictures, if his team could only get a few good runs...

Okay, I had a few more pictures, but I cant seem to get them to post upside-right. Hopefully I can figure it out and add them later.

BABY GIRL

I'm supposed to be studying for a final but I had to put this up.

Can I call it sickness?

Let's just face it... I know I have REALLY been sucking at blogging. But on the bright side two weekends ago Reid and I did a lot of cleaning, last weekend we went to the Draper Temple Open House and back in January I found out we were pregnant!
Okay that's a really bad picture, but it says I'm pregnant. On the 10th of February I heard the heartbeat for the first time and then on March 11th, Reid and I both heard the heartbeat.
Yesterday morning (St. Patrick's Day) I felt the baby kick and had Reid's hand on my stomach all night so that he could feel it too, but no luck. Today is 15 weeks and unfortunately I still get sick, but Reid is such a sweetheart and takes care of me, his school, and work. What a guy! So that's why I haven't been writing, I felt like crap a lot. But it's getting better so hopefully I can keep everyone informed.
Here's me and the baby at 15 weeks
