Belly

Well, here are some pictures of my belly. They don't make me look like I have much of one but I sure feel it. Baby is moving a bunch now. I heard we can get the gender checked here really soon but my doctor says wait until 20 weeks at the latest so we have a few weeks. Darn! I really did do a lot of growing this week though. It was fun starting to feel the baby and stuff. I'll post more as I get bigger.

Still growing

My plants did a lot of growing over the week while I were away from Rexburg! I watered them good before leaving but maybe a little too much for some. Now I don't have to do a lot of watering for a while. Mom told me she really likes her garlic chives so I have some planted. I'm excited to be able to use these herbs eventually. The green beans are huge too! Wow. And the tomatoe plant. I can't beleive it. I am wondering if I'll be able to grow them inside much longer.

Grandma and Grandpa Hunters

We were able to spend a few days in Rupert with Grandma and Grandpa's house this past week. It was nice of them to put up with us that long. We were able to relax a bit and prepare for school again, which started today. Ugh! TJ was able to help Grandpa outside with a lot of stuff including some gardening. Grandpa introduced TJ to a few new computer games too and Grandma and I did a few puzzles. I met the neighbor girl, Hailey, and she introduced me to her goats and horses and one crazy dog. Grandma and Grandpa have a few cats at thier place whetehr they like it or not. There were two mommies with babies at the farm but each time we found them the mommies moved them. I think there's another pregnant one because she was picking out a nice place under the boat and making a bed, possibly for kitties. I hope those others make it though. They were only a cople weeks old or less. Overall, we had a pretty nice week visiting Grandma Grace in Grace, Idaho and seeing my cousins, and visiting Grandma and Grandpa and seeing TJ's cousins. Cousin Jon is back to Rexburg for school now. He just finished his mission to the Phillipines. That boy might not last very long up here with all the pretty girls running around. Wink! Wink! It's nice to be back home anyway, even if we do have to go back to school.

More plants

Just wanted to show more picture of my plants. I got more seeds and a tomatoe plant. The greenbeans are huge and I'm excited for them. They'll be great for canning and stuff.

A short update....school is over!!!! What a semester! It's been tought for both of us though I think this is the longest semester ever and the hardest with being sick and stuff. If I could do it over again, I wouldn't want to be pregnant first trimester during school. Ugh! But, we're both doing great. TJ will be home in a few minutes from his last final and then we'll take a break a go out of Rexburg for the weekend. Yeah! We're going to Grandma Grace's house in Grace, Idaho for Easter and Tuesday we're heading to Rupert to G&G Hunters. It'll be so nice to see family and relax a little before school starts in 12 days. Ugh! Not long enough...but we'll take it. I'm excited it'll be my last semester and hoping I can get through it. At least I'm done being sick...I hope. Well, hope everyone is well on your end...whomever is reading. We send out love and prayers with you all. Have a wonderful weekend! Happy Easter!

My Garden

I love gardening, but for now this is the best I can do. It's so fun to watch things grow and blossom knowing you helped and nurtured and...stuff. Okay, I like plants. I like to get my plants from campus because they're super awesome and super cheap. The white pot has an asparagus plant, the cool shiney one is called a goldfish plant, the taller oe that I really love...I'm not sure what it's called. Also, my garden consists of parsley, dill, spearmint and I just planted a bunch of greenbeans that are growing like crazy. I think they just sprouted two inches over night. Awesome! I love watching them grow. I just have to be careful not to overwater them or anything. I also planted tomatoe plants but they'll take a whiel longer to sprout...if they do. I'm enjoying the planting and stuff but keeping busy in school. I want a pet!

Spring Cake

This is the latest cake for cake decorating class. My final cake is two or three layers and totally due next week. It's goign to be awesome...if I can ever get it officially going. There's so much to do. It's a harder class than I thought it would be. Mostly becasue of all the preperation and time consuming homework and stuff. So, this is my spring cake. I used colorflo for the butterflies and birds. That was cool stuff but it totally stinks...literally. There is a basketweave border and the color...that was an accident but I had to run with it. Flowers were fun. I think there are daisies, dafodiles, mums, some sort of roses and something else or two. I don't remember. Anyway, that's that. Here's my pictures. Oh, and leaves are fun. I like using the piping tools.
