SO excited for my friends to get here!

Tonight, my cousin Kate and her son Paul will be flying into Phoenix, then she will arrive in Tucson on Saturday morning....and I am SO excited!!!! Kate is about 8 weeks behind me in our pregnancies...she is having another little boy!!! This will be the first time, and last time we will see each other for awhile, as we are moving to Spokane! I just want to enjoy every minute of time I get to spend with my wonderful cousin!!! I love these pictures for some reason. When Kate and Paul were here last July, we celebrated our birthdays together and also Paul's 1/2 birthday! Nick just gets a kick out of Paul...how fun it will be to see him walking around now!

Can't wait!!!!

Time does fly!

Wow...has it really been since January that I have posted? How sad for me!

I figure I better get on the ball with this blog thing again, since my little girl is coming in the next 5 weeks.....well 4 weeks and 6 days...but who is counting? :)

I have had an amazing pregnancy!!! No complications, just the usual stresses of carrying a human in your body for 9 months. We are ALMOST at weekly visits with our Doctor...which is really exciting! We recently took a tour of the Women's Center NW and it made it ALL too real!!! How exciting! I am not scared or nervous at all for the actual labor and delivery, I am just terrified to think of what will happen after we leave the hospital! YIKES!

Nick and I celebrated our 3 year anniversary! As a present........a newww....STROLLER! It is amazing and I am in love with it! I put on my diaper bag ( it is a back pack type), and was rolling the stroller around our apartment and asked Nick if I looked like a mom...and his reply..." ummm, you look like a very pregnant mom, yes". I do look a little pregnant right now :)

Nick chose GONZAGA LAW for his law program! Spokane here we come! We will be moving in late July. Very scary to think of leaving family...but REALLY exciting to start our little family in a beautiful area!

K...I am attempting to be better at this blog posting....I am not a huge fan of putting pictures of babies on facebook.....so this is going to have to happen!!!!

GIRL!

We found out today that we are having a little girl! Nick and I are BEYOND thrilled and so blessed to have this sweet little spirit come into our home!

We are back

We are back into the blogging world! With a baby on the way we want to keep all of our friends and family updated with what is going on with Smith baby! I am 12 weeks along today, and feel as good as can be expected. I have been sick here and there....very tired....but enjoying everything..including the sickness, that is coming my way. Nick has been a GREAT support for me during the times where I can't move..:)
So much is going on with us! I am almost done with my LAST Math class ever! I have a great teacher who I know was put in my life to help me get through this class while in my first trimester! Nick is graduating on December 19!!! We are having a fun party for him so we are excited about that. We went to visit law schools in Oregon and Seattle over Thanksgiving break....it is SO pretty up there! We loved it! We will know where we will be going by February!
We can't picture life being any better than it is right now...we are so blessed!!!!

Diamond Backs Game!

Well...thanks to UPS we went to a Diamond Backs game for way cheap! They lost....but it was still really fun! We even got to see a free concert after....it was really bad so we left! I loved watching Nick in his element! He loooooves baseball so much.

My weekend + Monday shopping trip!

So this past weekend I drove to Phoenix to visit John and Becky. Becky and I RAN really fast in a 5k race to support 9/11....it was really fun and was for such a good cause! We actually walked the whole thing...but it was fun to catch up and laugh and chat. The park was so beautiful where it was held! We were greeted by Senior Mrs. Arizona with a high five!!! lol...that was the highlight for me! We then went to go and see..." Medea, I can do bad all by myself " ...for those who re Tyler Perry fans....he was only in it like 15 minutes...kind of a rip off....but it was still funny....Becky....I will SHANK you girl!

We then went shopping and I found Christmas stuff for 90% off! I got about 10 items for $3.17!!!! So, we are ready to start shopping...let the Christmas season begin!

Tonight, Monday, I went grocery shopping and then got a little gift for 1. MYSELF and 2. Peyton! Peyton's little birthday present is a CUTE pink shirt w/ white rhinestones, a pair of brown lounge pants with a little princess sign on it....she really is a little princess! I also got fun pink pouf's for Peyton and her little sister Tatum. I always hated having to watch my sisters open their presents and never get anything.....at least Tatum will feel some what included.

I FINALLY got a new lunch pale! It is soooo cute. I have been taking my lunch in a plastic Sprouts sack...ghetto fabulous I know....but this will be way more cute and ME!!!
