Procrastination

top ten things i would rather do than my paper:

take a nap

watch an episode of the Office

play spider solitaire

check email and blogs

visit Bridger at work

eat anything... preferably chocolate

put lotion on my belly

practice my baby signing

sign up/ look for classes online

do the dishes... believe it or not!

I don't know how much longer i can put this paper off before i get too stressed out and anxious that i will finally break down and start it! I have been meaning to start it all week but i have always found something better or "more important" to do; like watching Space Balls- this was my first time to see it...it wasn't too bad! Anyways i think i will play just one more round, or until i win, of spider solitaire and THEN will i start my paper!

Fun weekend with the In-Laws

So between school, work, and homework I have not had enough time to sleep let alone blog!! i don't have enough time to catch up on the past months but i do have time to report on my way fun weekend! This last weekend we had Bridger's mom, Lisa Field, and sister, Lindsey, come and stay with us. It was such a fun weekend!! We ate delicious food, went shopping, got pedicures, talked, saw the movie "Hairspray", and really got to know each other. It was such a good visit and I am so glad that Lisa and Lindsey came. It is sad to be back to school and work. Well here are some pictures from our weekend:

this is my 33 week large pregnant belly

Bridger and I outside our apartment with our Halloween pumpkins

for some reason the computer wont let me type above this last picture. This is Bridger's newly reupholstered chair. He completed this project all on his own! Impressive is it not? I am so proud of him! McBride sisters you might recognize the form of this chair... it used to be covered in blue fabric, now it is so much more attractive!!

LOTS of pictures

The Grand Canyon!Bridger was really far out on a rock hanging off the edge ...AH!!!!Mom racing! This is at the Family ReunionMe on our way home... exhausted!

We are having a....

This last week was CRAZY!!!! we moved to our new place which is bigger, has a washer and dryer, is only $25 more per month, and is NOT temporary so it is ours for the next year! Wahoo! It is nice to finally settle into our home.

We picked up our new couch on Saturday from Uncle Keith. The old couch is nice and fits nicely into our living room. Afterwards Mom, Dad, Bridger, and I went to Ikea!! We got 2 new chairs (just like Mary's) the red chairs look so cute with all our red appliances. We now have 4 chairs total, they don't all match each other but it works and still looks cute! we also got a bookshelf!! it was a steal! It was in the "As Is" room and was missing the back so it was only $12 (its normally $60-$80!!!!) yahoo! so we picked up a white piece of ply wood to fit in back and it is as good as new!

We also turned in our medicaid papers and will hopefully qualify! Unfortunately during the month of July we made only about $20 over what they usually qualify, so we are hoping that we still qualify and don't have to re-submit in the next month or so.

I have saved the best news for last so that you all had to read through my blog to find out what we are having! we found out on Thursday that we are having a baby.................................

BOY!!!!
^ that is the biggest lettering i have...

isn't that exciting! we can't wait! we are probably going to name him Forest (yes his name will be Forest Field but we like it!) I will be putting on our pictures from the ultra sound on my blog hopefully soon, i just didn't bring the pictures to mom and dad's today! we have some really cute pictures. one you can see his little nose! it is so cute! Also during the ultra sound the lady zoomed in and we could see the four chambers of the heart pumping and could watch the valves open and close! it was really AMAZING! Our baby looks healthy and looks to be growing just fine! He has long legs which he obviously did not get from me! Also during the ultra sound he kept moving all over the place and the nurse kept commenting on how much of a mover he was, isn't that cute!? Anyways we are excited and can't wait for him to come!

HARRY POTTER!!!!

Friday Night Bridger and I stayed up until 12:01 a.m. to get our new copy of HARRY POTTER and the Deathly Hallows. Since we only bought one copy of the book sharing has been difficult, but has made the book last longer. We read 3 chapters a piece and then switch off and have to wait impatiently for our next turn! Right now it is actually Bridger's turn and so to keep me from getting impatient and going a little crazy i have decided to check blogs and emails. Anyways we have LOVED the book so far! It is already really exciting and dark. I will be really sad to finish it and to not have anymore Harry Potter books to look forward to. If you have finished the book do NOT ruin anything for me PLEASE!

p.s i have decided that i don't really like Harry Potter, the character that is, he kind of drives me crazy!

A Steal!

ALL the Items we got for $20 at a garage sale!
A table and 2 chairs
A vacuum (that works!) with EXTRA filters
and lots of Baby clothes (boy and girl stuff) I picked up clothes from about 0 to 2 years old! The clothes are REALLY nice and new!
P.S. i will be adding pictures soon!

Apartments, apartments, apartments!

Our Humble Abode:
kitchen bedroom

couch with mom, dad, and me on it!!!

TINY bathroom

living room

our handy swamp cooler-it works really well actually!

p.s. all of the furniture AND decorations do NOT belong to us!!!!

We are now all the way moved into our little apartment! Our little apartment is so cute! There is one room, a large kitchen and living room, and a TINY bathroom! Our little bathroom is smaller than the size of moms closet! You could easily wash your hands while going to the bathroom. BUT i think it is really cute! The whole house is really old but it is most noticeable in the kitchen. The sink is very primitive and the cabinets were built around the same time as the house. But our red appliances look extra cute in it! In our bed room behind our bed is a GIANT arched window which is my favorite part of the house. Anyways Bridger and I have had so much fun moving things in and getting organized. This apartment is only for the summer which has discouraged us from decorating, but the apartment is already kind of decorated so it still looks cute! we have found our next apartment which has 2 bed rooms and comes with a washer and dryer! wahoo! that will be so nice with the baby. The next apartment is one of the best deals we have found and we are really excited about it! i am just not looking forward for packing up and moving... AGAIN!
p.s. Sisters get off my back for not blogging we don't have the internet at our apartment and so getting on a computer can be a challenge! :)
