So WOW! it's been a while. *sigh* life is craziness. Ok So the last two weeks in July I had to work for the NG. That was interesting. Frodo was SO mad. At one point he didn't even want to listen to Daddy. EEEK! Loraina was a HUGE help. We had lots of cookies which unfornunately the doctors didn't like so much since I have gained too much weight. GGRR! Moroni liked it though. He's gotten big and they say he's suppose to slow down his movements but it feels like he's picking up the pace. :) Bathrooms are definately scoped out as soon as we enter any store. :p
August we had Loraina's 18th Birthday. I hope she enjoyed it. She's gotten a new car from one of our cousins on my mum's side and has a job so she's paying it off fast. We colored her hair totally red. It looks good on her. She looks like our mum even more. Then I made a homemade cake from scratch and with real frosting also from scratch. We invited some friends over and had homemade pizza with the help of our cousin Jessyka's doughnut recipe for the crust. YUMMY!! Thanks Jessyka! We actually didn't get to the cake until her birthday which was on Saturday. Alan iced it after everyone went home. We put candles on it and got our mum and dad with David's boys on the webcam and sang to her. It was suppose to be a suprise but it didn't work out very well. Oh well I hope she enjoyed it.
She went home on David's birthday the 18th of August. That was a busy day. We signed for a new house too. Friday we were moved out of our old place and into our new one on Base. MANY THANKS to the Miliani 1st ward and our landlords the Hallstroms for their much needed help. We cleaned on Saturday and had the perfessional carpet cleaners come in. Sunday morning at 0600 we had the exterminater guy come in and spray the house. We went to the Mililani 1st ward for the last time that day. :( we then went to home depot to grab swatches and compare paint on the white walls. 4 different colors of white. We went back still on Sunday and finished up the touch ups. Crazy Crazy week and weekend. Thanks to Cammie, Kaleb, and Loraina we were packed and ready to move by Friday. It took the biggest Uhaul, two trucks and my car loaded full to move. I didn't think we had that much stuff. Sheesh! Frodo was estatic about the big back yard, which I need to go water.
This week we had to go to a hotel for a night so our new house could be tented for termites. Bleh! What a rough night. Alan was up and down all night I was up and down all night and Frodo was so nervious and edgy he would growl or bark at any slight movement. AAAAAA! That was a VERY long night. The next day was a little better course I distracted Frodo by giving him carrots and dog treats the hotel provided for him. He was SO good all day. LOL Then I got locked out of the room because they got the wrong check out time. Oy Vey! Alan came to the rescue and got a new key. YEAH! I love my husband.
We had to wait until 1800 last night before we could enter the house again. SO we picked up dinner and went to the beach to eat and give Frodo some air. We pushed him into the water. LOL it was SO funny. He freaked and tried to get away from us. OOPS! He got pushed in a few more times but he was better about it. He even jumped up out of the water. YEAH!!! He was SO tired last night it was great. :p I wasn't feeling to hot though. I don't know what it was but I was nauseas and weak though I had dinner it felt like I hadn't eaten though I wasn't hungry at all. Poor Alan was trying to study but he couldn't with seeing me so miserable. I fell asleep while he was reading to me. He finished his chapter though so YEAH!
Trying to sleep is becoming harder and harder these days. Either my hips hurt or my shoulder hurts or my belly hurts or all three. HA! Starting to ache a lot too. mostly from the waist down. :)
Moroni really likes my right side so my belly is always lopsided. Hee Hee! He likes to stretch so his feet are like in my lungs and his head is in my bladder. :) I don't really mind because then I know he's alright. That and if I do try to move him he pushes harder. So I just try and stretch as much as possible with him. *sigh* I hope he comes a little early though. Mom and Dad Steele will be here on the 8th of September through the 15th so I'm hoping he comes during that time so they can meet their new grandbaby otherwise they do get to until December (hopefully). Mum Chapman will be here on the 21st of September to the 9th of December so she gets to have lots of time with him.
*sigh* half the time we Alan and I don't even know if we are ready for him to come. We think life is difficult now but when he gets here it's going to be even more challenging. *sigh* kind of nervious and scared but excited too.
Well have to go unpack and do somemore homework. Hasta!
now that i am finally reading this - you have already had little Moroni. I hope you are doing well and that the last few months weren't too much for you. My MacKenzie's birthday is also Oct 1st - a great day!!
