Here Comes Maddix!!

Sorry if this title fooled you…no Maddix is not here yet unfortunately. BUT…he should be here very soon! When I went in for my 36 week appointment, my doctor found out that I was 1 cm dilated and 50-60% effaced which is pretty good for 36 weeks! So I went in for my 38 week appointment yesterday and found out that I am 2 cm dilated and 75% effaced! He said that I am progressing a lot. YAY! Tonight I’ve been having lots of cramping which means I’m progressing even more! This baby could be here any day!! :) Wish me luck. I’m going to need it! Can’t wait for you to join us Maddix!

*..{Anniversary + New House + Cabin Trip + Baby Shower + etc}..*

So Brig and I celebrated our 1st anniversary on January 2nd! So exciting! We’ve had such an awesome first year. Got hitched, moved into a town house that my Dad owns, Brig started his job at University of Phoenix, straight A’s for both of us :), honeymooned in Cali, made another trip to the beach, found out that I’m pregnant!, started another semester of school, bought a house, a car, etc.

We are loving our new house

{ Maddix’s room…we’ve got a lot to do before that little boy comes :) }

{This was me at 34 weeks}

Last weekend Brig and I went up to my family’s cabin with my parents and grandparents. We had fun in the snow :)

{I just had to get a jumping picture!}

This past week, my mom and sisters threw me a baby shower. They did such an awesome job with the decorations!

 

{Mel got to come home for it! It was so good to see her!}

{My niece Tessa was such a big help! She liked bringing me each gift to open. so cute.}

{My cute mother-in-law & sister-in-laws…or sisters-in-law :) }

{Cute friends.}

Yesterday I went to lunch with my 2 best girl friends, Carissa & Lauren. Love those girls! Lauren was down visiting from Utah so we had to make a Costa Vida run! Unfortunately we were too busy talking so I forgot to get a picture of all of us :( After lunch, Lauren had to leave, but Carissa and I made a stop by the store “Hottie”.

{Trying on random hats :) Carissa was so worried that the worker ladies were going to kick us out! hah.}

{These pictures remind me of high school days :)…minus the pregnant belly}

BABY UPDATE: We are getting so excited for little Maddix Brigham. He will be here in about 4 weeks! }

{THE END}

Brigham Performing Down Down

There is never a dull moment in our home! Brig loves to break out in dance…free style! He’s so entertaining! I love it. Enjoy!

Today Brig and I went to the putting green and had a little competition! Brig won the first 5 holes and I won the last 5 holes. Which means, he got to choose where we would go for ice cream and I got to choose where we would go to dinner! :)

In AcTiOn!

I’m getting a little too into this golfing thing.

I told Brig to strike a pose and this is what he did…Lookin’  Buff Sweetheart!

P.S…I’m 33 1/2 weeks! Only 6 1/2 weeks left and counting! :)

1st Christmas!

Brigham decided to spoil me for Christmas this year.

1. New Car

2. New laptop

3. Cute necklaces

4. Cute headband

5. Fun games

6. Adorable outfit for Maddix! Yes…it is Jordan wear. What do you expect??

We had an amazing Christmas full of lots of family! Christmas parties every night! Gotta love it! We are looking forward to celebrating our 1 year anniversary in a week, my birthday in a couple weeks, Brig’s brother Chandler coming home in 6 weeks, and last but definitely not least…our baby boy Maddix coming to join our little family in 7 1/2 weeks! :)

On Christmas Eve I went over to my parents while Brig hung out with his brother, and we made doughnuts!

The day after Christmas I went shopping with my sisters and mom to use some gift card money!

Velvet stretchy pants that we made Allie try on :)

We’ve Moved!

{HOUSE}

It’s not as big as we were hoping…but not too shabby for a first home eh?

Ok fine. So that’s not really our house…but it’s similar! Ours is just a couple thousand square feet smaller, front yard a tad bit smaller and not as green, and not so many pillars…if any. Or trees. Or balcony’s.

BUT, we do love having a house! It’s a fun change and it will be nice for when the babe comes! Brigham and his brothers and dad have been doing a lot of yard work on it including de-greening the pool, cutting down random plants {such as a cactus, dead citrus tree, over grown mesquite tree, many ugly bushes, dead/over grown/unnecessary palm trees. ETC} The house has lots of work to be done on the outside, but the inside is pretty much put together.

Enough about the house, if you want to see it…come on over! {Broken camera = No pics}

{SCHOOL & WORK)

Brig and I have both been staying quite busy with school and work. He’s doing very well at University of Phoenix! He’s loving his job and just got made Team Lead which was exciting since he hasn’t even been working there for a year. He’s doing classes there and I’m almost done with my semester at CGCC. I’ll be applying for Dental Hygiene in January. YIPPEE. I’m still working at Asrari Endodontics part time and loving it!

{BABY MADDIX}

[No.Not ours.But cute.]

Yes, we did come up with a name. {Maddix Brigham Weight} is the little boy who we can’t wait for to join us in February! He’s still kicking like crazy and never sits still. He’s going to be just like his daddy! I’m 26 weeks along…~14 to go!

WELP. Sorry for the long post! Hope you enjoyed.

Mexico

In October, my sister and brother in law took us to Rocky Point with them. We stayed in a nice resort on the beach. We had so much fun! 

Brig and I jet skiing

Tessa, Trevin, and Tye playing on the beach

Getting ready to go on the whale!

Eating the most amazing fruit popsicles!

Thanks Tara and Tye for all the fun!

Here comes the Big Belly!

I used to be able to hike. I used to be able to run. I used to be able to hold it {you know what I mean} for more than 15 minutes. Those were the old days....Bring on the BiG MaMmA bEllY!

{21 weeks}

This post is also in memory of my far away sis. I admire her.
She packed up her bags, left her home, left her pregnant sister, and moved to Boston.
Did I mention that she doesnt have a car or job there? ...Might I add that she is looking for one!She did find a place to live at least so that's a plus!
She's incredible. I love her free spirit and daring self.
You're my hero Mel!
Love and miss ya!
