My amazing and wonderful friend Alana took some family pictures for us. They were much needed, but most of all, I wanted to get this picture taken. We emailed it to our family at the beginning of the month.<br />

Yep, that's right! We are expecting baby #3 due May 31st. I have been sick as always the past 2 1/2 months, but we find out in January what we are having! Here are a few more of the wonderful pictures that Alana took. She is awesome, I love her!<br />

This was out goodbye dinner at Olive Garden. The Hreinson's move this week. And we are all heart broken. What an amazing woman Rachel is! She blows me away, and I am so lucky to call her my friend!</div>

And because the Hreinson's were moving, I convinced Rachel to do a combined Mickey Mouse party for Gavin and Lydia. They are only 5 days apart, and the best of friends. Such a fun party to put on. Sadly, Rachel was really sick and didn't make it, we missed her! But I hope everyone else had fun!</div>

My parents were able to come down for Thanksgiving. We did lots of Black Friday shopping. Grandma and Grandpa also came down for dinner. We also made it to see Catching Fire and Frozen. It was a great holiday and we even had great weather, which makes it even better!</div>

We are just doing a Mommy Preschool with some families in our ward, but Gavin enjoys it, and it is nice that he gets interaction with other kids on a more regular basis. Things have just been busy with work, church and school so not too much to tell.<br />

In October of course we enjoyed Conference, and a bunch of the girls came over to my house during Priesthood Session and we made growth charts to hang up. The Hreinsons are moving in November so we have to get as much time with them as possible. No pictures though.<br />
And then of course Halloween. The boys went as Mario and Luigi. Zac was anti costume this year, so I made t-shirts for us to wear. Mine had Princess Peach, which I forgot to get a picture of, and Zac was Bowser. These pictures are awful, but they are all that I have. Sorry.<br />

But here are a few highlights.<br />
<br />
4th of July we went down to Parker for their celebration. They had some free bounce houses and things, lots of food trucks and then they were supposed to have a laser light show instead of fireworks. It sounded awesome, and I think it could have been. But they had some technical difficulties and it was sprinkling lightly which I think messed up some of the special effects. So that part was kind of a bust. But, oh well. It was nice just to be together as a family.<br />

The next day we went out to Pirates Cove. It is a small water park and Gavin loved it. I am sad that we are just discovering this place. The pirate theme is so perfect for little boys. And Wesley loved the lazy river. He would just sleep on me as we floated around the circle.<br />

We also had a ward BBQ and the YW/YM were in charge of games for the kids. So I helped a little with getting those things running.<br />

Zac and I celebrated our 5th Anniversary! I can't believe that it has been 5 years already. Time has flown by! We went out for a rare date, just the two of us and I love getting to spend alone time with him, that doesn't include falling asleep on the couch at night after we get the kids to bed. :) He is such a wonderful husband, and I am so lucky he picked me. We celebrated the week before because I left town to go to my brothers wedding. Spencer and Sam were married in the St. George temple on August 24th. It was nice to have a chance to go. I just flew out with Wesley, and Grandma and Grandpa Jones we just moved to Colorado. It is nice to have them living just an hour away.<br />

It is nice to have so much space, and the kids are really enjoying having so much room for their toys. I also appreciate that they are not all over the house, all the time.<br />
<br />
In May we were able to go to a Rockies game with most of our friends. Gavin's friend Mia was selling them through her school for really cheap, so we decided to go. The boys had a lot of fun and enjoyed getting to sit with their friends, and dance along to the music.<br />

The next week we went to Idaho Falls and were able to spend time with the Barrus'. We met new baby Tucker, and celebrated my 25th birthday while we were there. Of course, I celebrated by going shopping and found some much needed new clothes. I also got my hair done while we were there. The best part was just having Zac around for two whole weeks. Man, I love vacation, it is so nice to be with him more.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Grandpa put this together for the boys to play in, it was a little windy that day, but hopefully we can play with it more next summer.</div>

Before we left, Zac was put in as the Secretary in the Elder's Quorum Presidency. And when we got back, I was put in as the 2nd Counselor in the Young Women. I am so excited for this new calling, and I am excited to get to know the girls.<br />
<br />
We also had a surprise baby shower for my wonderful friend Rachel! She is having her 3rd girl in August and we are so excited for her. Hopefully she didn't feel too ambushed as we told her we were having a belated birthday lunch for me at Olive Garden. The only picture I have of Rachel from the shower is not super flattering, so here are the cupcakes that I made for dessert. <a href="http://www.tried-trueblog.blogspot.com/2013/08/sin-cake.html">Sin Cake Cupcakes Recipe</a><br />

At the end of the month we had our annual friend trip and decided we would just stay a weekend at the Palmer's house this year. We had great food, games, and spent Saturday walking around Estes Park. It was nice to go somewhere that we haven't been before. I feel so lucky that we have such a wonderful group of friends. I don't know how we got lucky enough for them to invite us in to the 'group,' but I love them all dearly.<br />

It was a lot of fun and Uncle Kyle and Aunt Tami did a great job organizing it. The first day we did an Amazing Race around the valley to some of the places where my mom and her family grew up and where Grandpa worked and other things. It was a lot of fun, although we got confused about some of it and ended up in last place. We also went to the Las Vegas Mini Gran Prix one day and had lunch and rode the rides and played arcade games. Gavin, really enjoyed that one. The rest of the family went out to the Hoover Dam tour, and my family went to the Town Square Las Vegas where the kids played for a little bit. We figured we had too many kids to try and wrangle through a tour. Uncle Brad had a bouncy castle set up in his backyard for the three days that we were there. And Gavin was over the moon about it. He spent pretty much all his time in there. The last day we celebrated Easter with egg and bucket decorating and an Easter Egg hunt. It was great to see all of my extended family, many of whom I haven't seen in quite a few years.<br />

We stayed a few extra days, because our plane tickets were much cheaper if we flew home Tuesday instead of Sunday. So what did we do? My mom drove the boys and I to spend a day at Disneyland. It was great! But I have to say, one day just isn't enough to do it all. We did ride the new Cars ride and it was amazing! Gavin keeps asking everyday if we can go back. The sad part about the whole weekend was that Zac had to work, so he couldn't come with us. That would have made it the best.<br />

<br />
We have also closed on our house and are all moved in. It was a stressful few days, but I am grateful to all of our Barrus Family for coming down to help us. We couldn't have done it without you! From the water line overflowing and having to get it snaked to the refrigerator being a 1/4 of an inch too tall to fit under the cabinet, I would have been more than overwhelmed to have handled it all by myself. Not to mention the fact that I took Wesley in for his 1 year check up and he hasn't gained like any weight in the last 9 months, and we were at the office for 2 hours while they did a bunch of tests to make sure there wasn't anything wrong with him.<br />
<br />
Of course, we celebrated Wesley's birthday! We had a little party at our apartment right before the move, and then another one while family was in town. I can't believe that he is already 1! I am not ready for my baby to not be a baby anymore. But man that kid just wants to be like his big brother. He is so funny and keeps us laughing all the time. And I love him more each and every day.<br />

Honestly, it kind of took us by surprise. It is a foreclosure that has been on the market for some time. And we found out that multiple offers were being put in, so we figured they would possibly be coming to a decision soon, so we wouldn't have to wait for months and months to find out if we got it. It was listed for 165k and we offered 175k with 4k in concessions. We actually made an offer on another house the next day, because I figured we didn't offer high enough and wouldn't get it. I had looked at the house without Zac, and he said just to make an offer. I completely forgot about the house. We made the offer on Monday, and on Friday our Realtor called to say we had gotten that house. I actually laughed because I wasn't even thinking about it anymore. But it was the one house in the school district that we wanted to be in and we are so excited! We close on the house on April 12th. The last two months have flown by, because I have spent all of my time looking at houses and finding houses to go and look at. I can't believe that this is all happening. What a big adventure this will be for us!<br />
<br />
It was so nice to go and meet with the loan officer and have him say that he rarely has clients that are doing as well as we are financially. It was nice to be able to say that we have $0 in debt and that we are ready to buy this house! I feel very grateful to have married an accountant, who has changed the way that I think about spending money on the extra things. I really owe it all to him. :)<br />

Here is our soon to be first home in Aurora, CO!<br />

I can't believe how crazy and yet exciting it has been. We have seen a lot of houses and made multiple offers, but nothings has worked out yet. I guess we just didn't realize how competitive the market would be in February. Houses are selling in less than 24 hours and for well over asking price. So it all has become a bidding war and it just depends on if your offer is the best one. But, I am hopeful that the right house will work out, and we will be able to be in the area that we want.<br />
<br />
Zac also celebrated his 28th birthday this month! Happy Birthday! He is such a great dad and husband, I feel so lucky each and every day that he chose me. :) We celebrated by going out to dinner at Red Robin. I keep hoping that someday it will be easier to buy him birthday presents, but it doesn't seem to work that way. I think he gets new church shoes like every year as well as a few clothes. It is like I can only get him things that he needs, because we never WANTS anything. Oh well, I guess that can be a good thing in some ways. :)<br />
<br />
For Valentine's Day we did a party at the church for playgroup where a few of the kids passed out valentine's to each other and we had a potluck. Zac and I went out to dinner a few days a later and enjoyed a nice date out together.<br />
<br />
Hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day!<br />
<br />
Here is like the one picture I have for the month. Zac and Gavin are out playing in the snow. I think they only lasted a few minutes because Gavin was too cold, but hey they tried right?!<br />

So here I am trying to play catch-up for the last year+ that I have missed of blogging. I can't believe how much my kids have grown in the last year. Sorry if there aren't very many pictures, but I at least wanted to document a few things for each month of 2013.<br />

Wesley actually eats baby food (Gavin never would), but we tried some Mixed Vegetables, it didn't go so well. It took a while for him to trust me after that. :)<br />

Zac and I were asked to be in charge of our Ward Christmas Party. It sounded like it was a great success. We did a story night and asked a few people to decorate a room and read a story. After dinner we divided everyone into 4 groups and we rotated through the 4 stories and then we went back to the gym for hot chocolate and apple cider and to listen to the Nativity Story. And then Santa came. I am glad it is done with, but it was a lot of fun. I probably won't be volunteering to do that again for at least a few years. :)<br />

We also had The Grinch, but my picture didn't turn out very well.<br />

On Christmas Eve we convinced our friends the Hreinson's to come over and celebrate with us. We had pizza and then drove around Highlands Ranch to look at the lights. Then we came back and had hot chocolate and beignets and the kids acted out the Nativity for us. Look at those cute kids. Best. Nativity. Ever. I will have to get more pictures from Rachel.<br />

And Colorado made me happy with a white Christmas. Snow has been scarce in Denver so far, so I was very happy about this!<br />

Gavin woke up at 3 am ready to open presents. I finally told him he could look at what Santa brought but then we had to wait for Wesley to wake up before we could open presents. Gavin and I ended up sleeping on the couch with Zac on the floor. Wesley finally woke up at 6:45 and then we had to wait until Gavin woke up around 7:20. But it was great. The boys loved all their new toys, and we feel so blessed. No big presents for us this year. We are hoping to make a BIG purchase in 2013, so we didn't need anything too big. :)<br />

<br />
GAVIN! That's right, he turned 3!<br />
Where has the time gone. I can still remember every part of the day I had him, and I what I felt like taking him home. It seems so surreal that he has been apart of our family for 3 years. He is definitely one of the joys of our lives and brings so much happiness into our home. One thing I have to say about boys, they are SO loving! I love that Gavin still wants me to hold him and love him all the time. He is my buddy, and always tells me I am his best friend. It is hard to think that anyone else could ever love him as much as I do.<br />

Here are some pictures from Gavin's birthday. Sorry they are not great, with a bunch of kids running around it is hard to take time to take pictures. We had a Superhero Party and all of Gavin's friends were able to come. The kids each put their capes and decorated their masks when they arrived. We played Pin the Shield on Captain America, matched villains to their superheroes, and knocked down pins(2-liter bottles) with pictures of villains on them. We had lunch and opened presents. I hope Gavin had fun, he definitely was spoiled, but I love to spoil my kids. :)<br />

Along with their capes and masks, these were the favor bags. A Superhero coloring/sticker book, crayons, superhero fruit snacks, and some candy.</div>

Thank you to all those who came and made Gavin's birthday so special!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Some things I would like to remember about Gavin:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
He sleeps on the floor in his doorway and then moves to the floor in our room in the middle of the night.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
He chews on anything plastic and eats it (I am hoping he grows out of this soon!)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
He loves to sing along to the songs on the radio. He also tries to sing along to the hymns. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
He cries when we leave the church because he wants to play with his friends longer.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
He loves the iPad and Youtube</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
He loves to dance to any music.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
He eats chicken nuggets, octodogs, fruitsnacks, apples, milk and juice (that's about it) and anything candy!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
He loves Wesley, even when he is ornery, if Wesley smiles at him he is happy.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
He always wants you to come in his room, closet, or tent and keep you in there to play with him. He will cry if you try to leave.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
He likes to compliment on my clothes and hair.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Potty trained at 26 months.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
When he needs to go to potty he is the king of the potty dance.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Although, I probably make myself busy so I can't complain too much. I thought about just skipping the last two months and starting off in September, but I figured I can show a little.<br />
<br />
I have been teaching Zumba classes at the church twice a week. I figured this way I can get better at being an instructor and work my library of songs before I start a paid class. I have also been trying to sub classes when I can to make some money to pay for my membership as an instructor. I really love Zumba and I enjoy the classes at church, but Zac worries that I am doing too much and taking time away from the kids. So I will probably go back to just one class a week, not to mention I am now the 2nd Counselor in the RS Presidency. I am so excited for this new calling, and to get to know the women in the ward better. I have definitely missed it while I have been in Nursery.<br />

The beginning of July we of course celebrated the 4th. We were able to go up to the Palmer's new house and have a BBQ and watch the fireworks out there. It was a lot of fun to get out of the city spend time with them. I am always so grateful for the wonderful friends we have.<br />

Wesley also turned 4 months in August and he was 19lbs. 11oz. He hadn't eaten in like 5 hours so I don't really count it. I definitely think he is over 20 lbs., but it brought him back down so that he was actually touching the top of the growth chart instead of above it. :)<br />
Gavin is a wonderful big brother, although a little too rough sometimes. Surprisingly Wesley doesn't mind it most of the time. I think he is going to have to be tough to hangout with Gavin. He sits(lays) and watches him play the iPad and wants to be where ever Gavin is. They are so fun but I am worried about the trouble they are going to get in next year. I think I have my hands full now, I am pretty sure I have a lot of future messes to clean up.<br />

Zac and I also celebrated our 4th Anniversary and went out to Rodizio Grill. Zac loved the meat and I love the grilled pineapple so we both went away happy. Mostly I just love getting to spend one on one time with my best friend and the love of my life. He still makes my heart melt, and I couldn't have asked for someone better. He is the most amazing man I know and I am so lucky to be married to him for eternity.<br />

The end of August we went to Ely for Trevor's Mission Farewell. He gave a wonderful talk on Sunday. I looked over and say my Dad and Grandpa wiping away the tears. I can't imagine how it must feel to see your posterity build their own testimonies and progress in the gospel. Even as Gavin learns that Jesus lives at the temple or who Joseph Smith is, it makes me emotional. Elder Jones is definitely as prepared as he can be and will spend 8 weeks in the MTC before he leaves for Tampico, Mexico. I am so proud of him and I know he will bless the lives of so many as he shares the gospel and his testimony.<br />

Now we are just waiting for the fall weather to kick in and the leaves to change. We are kind of tired of 90+ degree weather. Football season has started and Zac is excited to watch Peyton play in the Mile High City. Looks like we are going to have to get some number 18 t-shirts. We hope you are all enjoying the new school year and looking forward to Halloween in 6 weeks. I know I am. :)Zac & Chelseahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04459924968509407128noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2483351128715032153.post-24009523060808496032012-07-25T19:37:00.001-07:002012-07-25T19:37:27.596-07:00Breckenridge Friend Trip and Father's DayThe weekend of Father's Day we took a trip to Breckenridge with our friends. It was so nice to get away for a weekend. I think even Zac had fun. I am so grateful that we have such AMAZING friends, they are the best!<br />
<br />
We headed up Friday after work and met everyone at the mansion that we stayed in. We spent time in the hot tub, went up to Peak 7 and went swimming in their amazing pools, rode the gondola down the mountain, went shopping at the outlets and ate a ton of amazing food. It was great! We headed home Sunday afternoon and hit some insane traffic. And one of our friends had car trouble but in the end we all made it home safely. I put up a father's day sign and hopefully all of the men had a great day I know that we are so grateful for each of you. Especially my husband. He is one amazing dad, I have no idea how I got so lucky.<br />
<br />
Here are some pictures from our trip.......<br />

That would be an understatement. I feel like I have had no time to do anything but work on the next project/task ahead. Which would be why I haven't posted in 2 months.<br />
Don't worry, you don't have to chastise me, I feel bad enough. :) <br />
Anyway, let's take a little journey back.....2 months ago.......<br />
It all started with a trip to Idaho for Zac's brother, Nic's, graduation. He also turned 18 the day after. It was great to be able to be with the Barrus family in Idaho before we all traveled to Ely. The drive to Ely was great actually. Gavin fell asleep while playing the iPad until Twin Falls, and then he rode with Grandma and Grandpa in their car the rest of the way. They said he talked the whole time. I guess they are more fun than we are. And Wesley slept most of the way so it was pretty chill for us. It is nice to have a baby that travels so well. We were in Ely for Wesley's baby blessing along with Dylan's baby blessing. We are so grateful for all the family/friends that were there. We love you all and are grateful for your love and support. Then a few days later we had my brother, Trevor's graduation. It was nice to see some of my old teachers. It made me feel really old to see kids that were in Elementary School when I graduated. Then we drove home. We spent almost 30 hours in the car driving from Colorado to Wyoming to Idaho to Nevada to Utah and back to Colorado. We were happy to be with family, but definitely ready to come home. Especially after a flu bug went around my Mom's house and almost everyone got sick. Zac and Gavin had to deal with it the whole way home but it wasn't too bad. Aside from an interesting gas station bathroom experience. I will spare you the gross details. :)<br />
<br />
So here are some pictures from our trip....<br />

A few days after we got home we had Wesley's 2 Month Appointment. If you have not heard how much he has grown, be prepared to be shocked!<br />
<br />
<strong>2 Months:</strong><br />
Weight: 16lbs 3oz (a weight gain of <strong>9lbs 8oz in 6 weeks</strong>)<br />
Height: 24in<br />
<br />
The Dr. actually commented that I needed to be more observant about feeding cues of when he is full. I feed him less than I fed Gavin and he has gained faster than even Gavin has. Other than that he is perfect! His most common nickname around the house (aside from Wes) is Chunkers, we think it is suiting. :)<br />

Exactly 1 Month Old</div>Zac & Chelseahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04459924968509407128noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2483351128715032153.post-42806802447913607692012-05-10T14:39:00.000-07:002012-05-10T14:39:00.616-07:001 Month OldWesley is already 1 month old and I have no idea where the time has gone. I have really been trying to enjoy this time while he is still in the newborn phase, it just goes by so quickly :(. And I have to say, he is definitely packing on the pounds. I think I am just destined to have chunky babies :). I do love them chunky, but I feel that it makes them look a lot older than they are, and they lose the newborn-ness so much faster. Wesley is a good sleeper, he wakes up 2-3 times a night but it is usually about 3 hours apart, sometimes 4. He usually goes right back to sleep, but of course he has had a few nights where he doesn't want to go to sleep or he thinks that he should be awake in the middle of the night. At his first appointment (4 days old) he already weighed 6lbs 12oz, so he was back above birth weight. At his 2 week appointment (10 days), we were SHOCKED to find that he was 7lbs 14oz and 21 inches. Having grown 1 1/2 inches and gaining 18 oz in just 7 days. We wont have another appointment until he is 2 months so we will see how he has grown by then.<br />
<br />
Gavin has been adjusting to life with a little brother. He has found that he can do whatever he wants while I nurse because there is nothing I can do about it. He also is much needier for our attention. He always asks me to hold while I am nursing and I feel bad that I can't do it. He is learning to be more gentle, but he is a boy and doesn't always watch where he is going, so Wesley is learning to put up with a lot. Gavin loves his little brother and loves to give him kisses and look at him. He always tells us, "Wes is so cute." The thing he is really struggling with is bedtime he keeps waking up in the middle of the night and tries to come and sleep in our bed. Before Wesley came it was about 1 or 2 times a week, now it is everyday. We have tried locking him in his room but then he just screams. We have finally taught him that he can sleep on the floor by our bed. But, we are working on him staying in his room.<br />
<br />
We were fortunate enough to have Zac's family here when Wesley was born and they did lots of fun things like going to a Rockies Game, Golfing, and the Zoo. Then my Mom came when Wesley was 2 weeks old and we enjoyed lots of shopping and Zac and I were even able to go to the temple. Gavin loved having everyone come and visit and misses all of you. He will be happy when we see everyone in about 2 weeks for graduations and Wesley's blessing.<br />

<br />
At my 38 week appointment I chose to get checked because I had some contractions and hoped that there would be some progress. At this point with Gavin I was 1cm so I figured with all the exercise I had been doing that I would at least be at a 1. No such luck. I was pretty devastated, I know that is silly, but I decided I would try and workout a little harder to hopefully speed things along. Over the next week I continued to have contractions but just occasionally. I really hoped by 39 weeks I would at least be somewhere. <br />
<br />
At my 39 week appointment I was 1cm, thank goodness, and my Dr. stripped my membranes. I wouldn't say worst experience of my life, but no where near enjoyable :). So my Dr. had me schedule an appointment for Monday morning with the hopes that we would induce Monday or Tuesday.<br />
That appointment was on Thursday and it did start contractions for me but they weren't close enough together. I was about 10-13 minutes apart. But they were definitely consistent. Over the next few days they stayed about that far apart and were not that intense. I could still do everything that I needed to do and sleep for the most part. Although, every time I woke up in the night I could tell I was having a contraction so I would wake up and wait for the next hoping they would be closer together. Which would make me anxious and unable to fall back asleep for awhile. I didn't really want to go into labor because I wanted to take Gavin to the Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, and Zac's siblings were coming in on Sunday evening and I knew it would be much more convenient if I went into labor after they came and were able to take care of Gavin.<br />
<br />
So Saturday came, we went to the Easter Egg Hunt and then to the Ward Party and I of course was still having contractions 10 minutes apart. By this point it had been going on for 2 days and everyone was telling me I should just go to the hospital and get checked. After the ward party we went to our friends house and I bounced on her exercise ball for awhile. My contractions increased to 5 minutes apart but as soon as I stopped they went to like 13 minutes apart. Everyone expected that I would go into the hospital that night, but no I went home and slept fairly well since I had been exhausted from the last 2 nights of contractions.<br />

Gavin definitely enjoyed the Easter Egg Hunt this year.</div>
On Sunday we went to church and I didn't have a single contraction during sacrament meeting, which was really weird. But as soon as I got to nursery I was having contractions 10 minutes apart again. We went home and had dinner and waited for Zac's family. Amanda, Tiffany, Kellan and Nic came around 6pm. And I had Gavin do a little egg hunt around the house. By 8pm my contractions were 6-7 minutes apart consistently while I was at rest. So I called the doctors office and it was decided that I should go in and at least get checked after contracting for so long. Of course this just increased my anxiety not knowing if they were still going to send me home or not.<br />

Headed to the Hospital around 10pm.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
We arrived at the hospital around 10:15pm. When they admitted and checked me I was at a 3. So at least all the contracting had done something. They decided to keep me since I would be coming in the next day to get induced anyway. But they weren't going to do anything to help me progress until morning so I just labored through the night. They told me I could have my epidural or anything else for pain whenever I wanted. They would put me on the monitors for about 30 min and take them off for a few hours. I tried to sleep in between because I knew that by morning I wouldn't be getting much sleep. I think I got about 3 1/2 hours of sleep and at 7am they started me on pitocin. I normally try to wait as long as I can for an epidural, but by 8am it was too painful and I asked for the epidural. The anesthesiologist started it around 9am. By this point I was still a 3 almost a 4, but my epidural didn't seem to be working completely. I was still feeling my contractions and although the pain was less, I was still having to breathe through them. So the nurse anesthetist came in and gave me a dose of lidocaine and upped my rate on the epidural and things finally seemed to feel much better and it was 11am. A few minutes later my nurse checked me and I was a 9! She called my Dr. and we started getting ready. My water still hadn't broken yet and by 11:35 I was feeling tons of pressure. My epidural was working great and I could tell when I was having a contraction but I didn't have any pain. At 11:45 my Dr. peeked in to ask if I was feeling pressure and I said YES! She said good answer, and left to change. She was back 5 minutes later and started getting ready and the baby was coming. My sack was bulging out(sorry TMI) and they broke my water. I pushed through about 2 1/2 contractions and that was it! Wesley Russell Barrus was born at 12pm and he is perfect! And because he came so fast, his head was perfectly round. <br />

I couldn't believe what a small baby he was! Only 6lbs 11oz. and 19 1/2 inches. It really was the ideal delivery in my eyes. I have no complaints. I still tore a little bit and have some stitches, but my body is recovering so much faster than last time. All of my nurses read my history and kept saying that they hoped things would turn out much better than the first time, and they were all shocked with how big Gavin had been.<br />

I am so grateful to all of the family and friends who have been there to help us with our new addition. It still seems surreal that we are a family of 4 now, but it also feels wonderful. We couldn't be more smitten with Wesley, he is a wonderful, easy baby. Although I think almost any baby would be easy after Gavin. We love our two little boys and we couldn't be happier.Zac & Chelseahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04459924968509407128noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2483351128715032153.post-43430346649166487262012-04-10T18:27:00.000-07:002012-04-10T18:27:22.475-07:00Wesley Russell Barrus<div style="text-align: center;">

Wesley is here and we are SO happy. This delivery was the complete opposite of Gavin's and we are doing great. Of course, I did just have a baby so its not like I am going to be back a Zumba next week or anything :), but things should be much smoother recovery wise. I will post the birth story soon.Zac & Chelseahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04459924968509407128noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2483351128715032153.post-3699871452303396512012-04-03T14:45:00.000-07:002012-04-03T14:45:31.728-07:00Preparing for Baby #2So to be honest, I haven't done much preparation this time around. Well, when you have already had one boy it eliminates a lot of things. But I do have my own sewing machine this time, so I was able to make a few things. First I wanted to make matching blankets for the boys, so that they would match when they are in the same room together. For Gavin the colors I focused on were Red, Yellow, and Blue. So I decided to do blue and white blankets and then I will continue adding red, yellow accents. We have already moved the crib into our room so I can't get a great picture of the final product with the crib. But I made the skirt, bumper pads, and blanket. Gavin has a matching rag quilt on his bed as well.<br />

I had a shower a few weeks ago. Thanks to all my wonderful friends for coming. Because there isn't a ton that I need, I figured we should just have a girls lunch and we enjoyed Olive Garden Soup, Salad, and Breadsticks. And my friend Michelle made red velvet cake. Thanks to all you wonderful girls for the great gifts! We appreciate it so much! And we missed those that weren't able to make it.<br />

I have cleaned out closets, cleaned bathrooms, organized drawers. I really just need to go through things like the refrigerator and pantry and we should be ready. I am definitely ready to meet this little boy, and I think Gavin and Zac are ready too. Everytime I get ready to leave the house Gavin asks if I am going to the hospital. About 7 more days and I should hopefully be getting induced on Monday. Hopefully this week will go by quickly!</div>

So I took one yesterday and now I can finally play catch up for the month of february.<br />
<br />
Well the month started off with a HUGE snowstorm. And I mean HUGE! We had 18inches in about 36 hours or so and it just snowed nonstop from Thursday night to and all through Friday. Even Zac had work cancelled because of the weather, which has never happened before. It was nice to have him home for the day, but we definitely had cabin fever. And of course we had my friends baby shower planned for Saturday morning after the storm. What could we do? We hoped some people would venture out, and luckily we had a perfect turn out. Thanks to all who came, I know Alana appreciated it! We had a brunch shower with make your own yogurt parfaits, bagels and cream cheese, juice and for the dessert.....cinnamon roll cupcakes. Perfect for a brunch shower right?!? I will be posting the recipe soon on my <a href="http://www.tried-trueblog.blogspot.com/">food blog</a>. <br />

I did the decorations so I decided to make my gift a decoration as well. I know that people love diaper cakes, but when I had my shower for Gavin, my good friend made me a diaper motorcycle so I thought I would do something along those line. I made her a diaper tricycle. I think that it turned out really cute. Tutorial found <a href="http://southernfrieddreams.blogspot.com/2011/03/diaper-tricycle-tutorial.html">here</a> through pinterest of course. :)<br />

Then on Sunday we had a Superbowl Party/Birthday Party for Zac. I know it is Sunday but it is mostly just so that I can make a cake for Zac's birthday and not have to eat the entire thing ourselves. I was really worried about parking for everyone because of all the leftover snow from the storm but it was ok. I made these Hawaiian Sweet Roll Ham Sammies that were SO good. The recipe is also found on my food blog.<br />
<br />
Zac's birthday was on Wednesday the 8th and we went to Red Robin for dinner. I gave him some video games for the Wii and I hope that he enjoyed his birthday. I always love a day when I get to celebrate my husband. <br />

Of course the next week was Valentine's. I planned a family dinner for Tuesday with Salad, Chicken Cor Don Bleu and Chocolate Covered Strawberries. I gave Zac a card and some chocolates and Gavin got a box of chocolates as well. Zac gave me flowers and a big box of chocolates too. It was nice night. But, of course Zac came home with some exciting news, he was going to be working later nights and over the weekend for the next week or two. We were supposed to have our Date Night for Valentine's the next day so that got put on hold. I was a little disappointed, we rarely go out just the two of us, and I was really looking forward to it. But no worries we were able to go on the 28th and had a great night out. We went to Outback for Zac's first time. I commented that this would probably be our last date night as parents of one. He asked if the hospital counted. I said NO! While I am in labor does not count as a date. :)<br />

We have had some exciting news this month! Zac has been promoted to Senior Accountant which comes with a raise! I am SO proud of him and I know that he deserves it. They have been trying to fill the position for a while and wanted someone with 3 years experience. Zac has half of that, but they gave it to him anyways. I know that his managers think very highly of him, and for good reason, he is a very hard worker. Great timing on the raise, just before you have baby. On another note, we finished paying off our student loans this month! Yay! Now we can start saving for a house!<br />

Someone gave me a really nice compliment today. I was in Kohls and I turned around and she said, "Wow, I wouldn't even know you were pregnant if I didn't see your belly, you look so good. And you are pretty far along too aren't you." That made me feel good, maybe I don't look as huge as I feel. I am still going to a Zumba class once a week and then I workout at home the rest of the time. But man, I can't even look in the mirror when I work out anymore. I look ridculous! I don't know how anyone can look at me and keep a stright face. It is pretty hilarious. On the positive side I feel a lot healthier this pregnancy and most days I have energy. I still have morning sickness most days but I haven't thrown up from it in the past two weeks, so that has been nice. I had about a 7 week break between 22 and 29 weeks and then at 29 weeks the morning sickness came back, but what can you do.</div>

Gavin has been really affectionate towards my belly. He always asks to see it and then he will hug and kiss my belly and then just sit there with his hand on it. He likes to bring toys and set them on top of me so that his brother can play with him and he keeps asking if brother is ready to come. I am so excited for him to have a little brother, but I am sure it is going to be rough for the first bit. With only 5-6 weeks left I feel like I can actually start preparations now, which feels good, and a little overwhelming. We have finally picked a name, hopefully, but don't bother asking because we are not telling until he comes! :) </div>

Better late than never.<br />
Well we started off the holidays with a wedding. Gavin and I flew to Salt Lake on Dec. 21st for my brother Alex's wedding. He was married to Katie McMullin on December 22 in the Bountiful, Utah Temple. They were married by Katie's Uncle Bishop McMullin of the Presiding Bishopric and it was a sealing unlike any other that I have been too. I learned SO much! It was so spiritual and we are so excited to have Katie in our family! We then had a Cafe Rio catered luncheon and the reception that night in Bountiful. I didn't take very many pictures because I spent the majority of the time chasing Gavin around. I really wish Zac could have been there, sadly he was the only one missing, and everyone missed him.<br />

Zac was also able to get off work a few hours early and drove the entire way making it to Idaho just before midnight. I was grateful he was able to spend all of Christmas Eve with us instead of driving 10 hours in the car. Grandma and Grandpa Barrus came up from American Falls to stay for Christmas as well and it was really fun. I think that Gavin definitely loved his first Christmas (where he actually kind of understood), and he came home with tons of presents!<br />
On Christmas Eve we had a wonderful dinner and then we did the Nativity and a few games. Then everyone opened up the Christmas Pajamas. Gavin was SO happy to finally open a present.<br />

I actually don't feel like I have gotten much bigger lately, but people seem to notice a lot more often. I feel like I have been HUGE for a while and I am a little scared of what the next 11 weeks will hold. I am now at my biweekly appointments which means this baby will be here faster than I think. And honestly I haven't done a single thing to get ready yet.<br />

See the big boy underwear? Yep, that's right, we've been potty training. The first day was AWFUL, I was beginning to think he wasn't ready. I was sitting him on the toilet every 15-20 minutes and he would pee as soon as I took him off. The second day he finally made it twice on the toilet but still there were LOTS of accidents. Potty treats really help, and to be honest, so does punishment. After he got the concept we would put him in timeout for about 30seconds and every time he didn't go when I put him on the toilet I would remind him that if he went in his underwear he would go in timeout.<br />
The 4th day was Sunday and I had major anxiety about him peeing in the middle of Sacrament Meeting. But he did great, not a single accident that day. And he has only had a few over the last five days. He really is doing awesome and I haven't changed a poopy diaper in like 9 days! That is amazing! I am so proud of this little boy, maybe he is a lot bigger than I think.<br />
<br />
Here is the video Christmas Morning. We all gathered in the front room for family prayer before going in to see the presents. Gavin didn't really enjoy his time waiting for Great Grandma and Grandpa. I have a video of when we actually walk in to see the tree but it is really dark and Gavin doesn't say anything because he is so interested in his toys. So I hope you enjoy this little bit of Gavin Christmas morning.<br />

He is still napping so I thought I would hurry and post. My brother gets married tomorrow morning! I can't believe it, but I am so excited for him. I am especially excited to get to see all of my family today and then Zac's family on Friday! It definitely feels like the last few weeks have flown by! I was on the committee for our Ward Christmas Party and then I sang in the Choir Program and I have had book club, enrichment, laundry, shopping and a million other things, but I am ready to go!<br />We have been trying to help Gavin get the concept of Santa so he would at least see him at our Christmas Party. He didn't last long, but he actually sat on his lap.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilf7oshL3SyvHO6nwVu6yumMOuTaclw3TLfGV_IyCSNynyfeclZ82pJ-Gjy2rqYwQNypEKtaxoT2DkyZ127c7Y6gaigSYfg0_0d9_cqMR5vZHfQdTyb0AlkzSzxWRbt2toPvpAmLiNKOc/s1600/Gavin+%25282%2529.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilf7oshL3SyvHO6nwVu6yumMOuTaclw3TLfGV_IyCSNynyfeclZ82pJ-Gjy2rqYwQNypEKtaxoT2DkyZ127c7Y6gaigSYfg0_0d9_cqMR5vZHfQdTyb0AlkzSzxWRbt2toPvpAmLiNKOc/s320/Gavin+%25282%2529.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5688698300963886866" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1w9PpxT_4MkV97MlKlzWJskN5CPb2JM3Czp-czqTGtWLC3zcPO0lJnPlXJKftMrdi1Rrv1jjXYbjZCP0rdrgkwzWRhVU8dUpaA1kiiSqm0PczcYKW6fYXnynX547-OWcySioN9s6PAJY/s1600/Girls-+Christmas+2011.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1w9PpxT_4MkV97MlKlzWJskN5CPb2JM3Czp-czqTGtWLC3zcPO0lJnPlXJKftMrdi1Rrv1jjXYbjZCP0rdrgkwzWRhVU8dUpaA1kiiSqm0PczcYKW6fYXnynX547-OWcySioN9s6PAJY/s320/Girls-+Christmas+2011.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5688698309011633138" /></a><br />On Monday we were able to go to an Avalanche game. It was so fun and they won 3 to 2 in the shootout. Zac's gave him tickets for box seats! Seriously, box seats! Zac was so excited he could barely contain himself of the way there. Gavin had a blast and has been talking about it since. He loved yelling with everyone and I appreciated that the box kept him a little more confined than regular seats. And considering it was an hour and half past his bedtime he was a trooper. <br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFkOPuIqUG0tjJCiCwOgPEdfu-XoZqc46XARM8Ud6O6IMwOBomXMhHALVl8b09oSKeTTWV5QQJJ1d3yUCwHrjLoZEAnmIEVKbbzhisl-M429RRVVF3M-K_yrX3WSjfAq3HG_8r1X4K3Bg/s1600/Christmas+Party+010.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFkOPuIqUG0tjJCiCwOgPEdfu-XoZqc46XARM8Ud6O6IMwOBomXMhHALVl8b09oSKeTTWV5QQJJ1d3yUCwHrjLoZEAnmIEVKbbzhisl-M429RRVVF3M-K_yrX3WSjfAq3HG_8r1X4K3Bg/s320/Christmas+Party+010.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5688698318142124450" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCyvUhaurmL6tMXeIwoAlH4SGWLx5efu9duQ80JW5wTCqyjSr2-ot58FBMVMpTyRLuf_wv_Bfpm3zAEgCAJOFd-4y9CweO1hrG-ancvTH5KQY_xfNYk9UrunS4Hqjg65x8J6GlXMF2lrM/s1600/Christmas+Party+011.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCyvUhaurmL6tMXeIwoAlH4SGWLx5efu9duQ80JW5wTCqyjSr2-ot58FBMVMpTyRLuf_wv_Bfpm3zAEgCAJOFd-4y9CweO1hrG-ancvTH5KQY_xfNYk9UrunS4Hqjg65x8J6GlXMF2lrM/s320/Christmas+Party+011.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5688698336862759714" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYXUUxMgv00TNaPq-esR_Kxd_qR3bUX1Vv_04lwdL3sk3BYTac-I_HMgcWcSGk0WlPaUVxn53zqjHb1fD3X2IhibmpH-_DLP-vDcRiNioiIKRS4tuRzEHHnHSVsIbGwkqYCZy4YLiiYa4/s1600/Christmas+Party+016.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYXUUxMgv00TNaPq-esR_Kxd_qR3bUX1Vv_04lwdL3sk3BYTac-I_HMgcWcSGk0WlPaUVxn53zqjHb1fD3X2IhibmpH-_DLP-vDcRiNioiIKRS4tuRzEHHnHSVsIbGwkqYCZy4YLiiYa4/s320/Christmas+Party+016.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5688698344200806946" /></a><br /><br />We hope everyone has a Wonderful Christmas!Zac & Chelseahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04459924968509407128noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2483351128715032153.post-46874377882197765052011-12-09T15:28:00.000-08:002011-12-09T15:41:34.718-08:0022 Weeks<div style="text-align: left;">Well, I guess I better do a small pregnancy update. I haven't thrown up in a week! Hooray! I am really happy about that. Although, the nausea is still around for now, but hopefully that will go away soon. This little boy likes to kick a lot, just like Gavin did. So we will see if he comes out just as active. We are really hoping for a calmer child this time around, but we will just be happy if he is healthy. I am struggling with how much earlier my belly has shown this time around. I don't mind looking pregnant, it just makes me worried about how big I will be by the end.</div><div>I have a lot more back pain this time around, but I think that is mostly due to my active two year old, who wants me to walk around holding him every time we are at the store. Gavin really hates his car seat now. About half the time he will get in and the other half he screams his head off and fights me. Which means that I end up with one leg on top of him to hold him down while I buckle him in. (I am sure this is quite a site to see in the parking lot).

Zac's mom was able to come on Monday and spend the whole week with us. It was great to have her here and Gavin was definitely spoiled with attention. He is having a hard time adjusting to the smaller, less constant attention he receives from Zac and I. I am probably the worst. My pregnancy sickness is still in full swing and has been pretty bad the last few days, so Gavin is having a hard time. Zac's Dad, sister Amanda, and brother Nic came on Wednesday and everyone stayed through the week and left early Sunday morning. This Thanksgiving I made my first Turkey which turned out ok. I used the Our Best Bites recipe and brined it and everything. But I just cooked it in out Roaster Oven to leave the oven open for everything else. Had it actually been in a real oven it probably would have turned out better. But it is all a learning experience. We had WAY too much food, but that is part of the joy of Thanksgiving! It all tasted great and we had a wonderful time.</div><div style="text-align: left; "><div><div><div style="text-align: center; "></div><div><div style="text-align: center; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: center; ">While we finished getting everything ready Zac, Grandpa, Nic, Amanda, and Gavin headed over to Westlands park to play.</div><div></div></div><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBVP-jw-ZHwNpol-1b-Xqgos7WtI2GnKiR7mNONsoGW0wIKo81fcMR7xnZwpwQWgdFEo0HkA5Q2Sewmjk5vGjQOg9Iywt7n0PuJ5aqmqvTO92zUF54Svopr6uZdJXi1QL0OqXg_pUo8FY/s320/Thanksgiving+2011+107.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5680206653469090130" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); text-decoration: underline; display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px; " /></div><div><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDqjcZWOReLjZR90rLL3-wlUAEOZ9tsz_eDifDTgQwBGDSBOf2BKNCg3Ym7zAXQutbTDu9kKhUS3ZWauGReDvK558FwqscYm3jyQ-gmiLUiHrDcfnRGuRmoQJfxyOfC7yY6399TMw6QZI/s320/Thanksgiving+2011+116.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5680207032613499666" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px; " /></div><div><div style="text-align: center; ">Looks like everyone had fun. :)</div><div style="text-align: center; "><div style="text-align: left; "><div><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_EDnwH6NNFdC-m5UjtekLmPB2wr-k2E9E6WSVIbxfMs53DK615yS_8XRygPJBG6WdT9oiUOt-fKuZ5IJlnfivGQRn4jUMzIKSsA7rGKx8lna3wZMzA6g9GkDVPqCEOOVf0nwLRv8Muws/s320/Thanksgiving+2011+117.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5680207176056851346" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px; " /><div><div></div></div><div><div><div style="text-align: center; "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMt1008Q3BiWyvHYx1js_5RJs5C-KaAxtT4KpLXUuLvhpySbPxQaV4GQFMVDdiFUtojWGcATfMpe_m8M_qkpD3YWs2q80w2aVPACWCOgadNdw5I-w6E6MtizaIRsh4PDILzCrmn_6yAbk/s320/Thanksgiving+2011+118.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5680207531951873682" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px; " /></div><div><div><div><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj69SfaRxe2Klv4YBYkRqtGbChU91SRPpYCGcTRMIHq7nkoBK3wqJZz2QfLn8Lx4Qmvoyh5E4s7guhGdXBOPnGMgngQfUWAxWIEFdnhQKcm_sKOGGxgGCyy3TNshFr5sQAF9CZhyphenhyphenWj4tYw/s320/Thanksgiving+2011+119.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5680207731070922770" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px; " /><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-5J-7SCT3yqfxvbwPlTMndYYaC8SHGp4G8Rc9ZwvDaHcvUGuWQg_pdSXY2_fD6At6fh2Fb02MBRTLSPUeb_QZ5GyDP0SBODnDTcruX0qkONEs6BeEWOEzDJcmtP0M3tNKT2UAzm9b2k4/s320/Thanksgiving+2011+128.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5680208128945957298" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px; " /><div style="text-align: center; "></div></div><div><div style="text-align: center; "></div></div></div><div></div><div><div></div></div></div><div></div></div><div></div></div><div></div></div><div></div></div><div style="text-align: left; "></div></div><div style="text-align: center; ">Ready to eat!</div><div style="text-align: center; "><div style="text-align: left; "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUOw90aNu1VXPOgnReDoE-gYtCuecQqtdsUhTujFdjD2AJ1wcsI_fE7UREDRKNWupPJDFMRTMtDgJ6KHS0gc49DzU6obd8_2K9VMaxz1v7aC6SuT10qrXoa9fQr3dGqcNcXibfddR4ol4/s320/Thanksgiving+2011+139.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5680208339275945346" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px; " /></div><div><br /></div></div><div>That night Amanda and I went to the Outlets in Castle Rock with some of my friends from the ward. They start their sales at 9pm on Thanksgiving and then we headed over to WalMart to get a few of the Christmas items I needed there. Amanda was a real trooper to come out shopping with me, even though she didn't buy anything her self. On Friday we went out to do a little more shopping at Kohl's and Burlington Coat Factory. We all went to lunch a Cici's Pizza Buffet and then Zac and I went with his parents to Sam's club and then to find a new bed for Gavin for when the baby comes. We found Gavin a twin bed at American Furniture Warehouse and we are really happy with it. Hopefully over the next few months he will learn to sleep in it so there aren't any problems when the baby comes.</div></div></div></div></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJ62X-kqTShSOKWWCDFMtMnwV15sYQkW6cYlOBC4QAFFJMyfcrOCyGhLgHNerZgWWca1iYKj6dI0HOGxkGtf-vZHoVomJab0TQf9eUv0Nn3HFxhJ3Y94v3x2k0jWwYI2jYvkNXv2jd_HY/s1600/Thanksgiving+2011+144.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJ62X-kqTShSOKWWCDFMtMnwV15sYQkW6cYlOBC4QAFFJMyfcrOCyGhLgHNerZgWWca1iYKj6dI0HOGxkGtf-vZHoVomJab0TQf9eUv0Nn3HFxhJ3Y94v3x2k0jWwYI2jYvkNXv2jd_HY/s320/Thanksgiving+2011+144.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5680208976935803074" /><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXVW3fHFyzK6sa50ECi_DMLhe-eUqBatjzpipTOMmdXMXYMI7VDX0ttzN-idfTFMmICtNqNnne8Gk2pw2KA1SlMoQ1oYhjco8JbjelYEB5p3Xk7-tR57Y7aJ4bRgUA1mjxmEHXP3S4Ru0/s320/Thanksgiving+2011+156.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5680209455730031026" /></a><div><div><div><div><div><div style="text-align: center;">Gavin definitely learned how to use Grandma's iPad and everyone's touch screen phones.
