Happy Fathers Day

I am sure my dad doesn't check my blog or even know what a blog is, but I just thought I would let everyone who does read my blog know how special my dad is to me!!

Ever since I can remember, my girlfriends have always LOVED my dad... Not only because he is such an amazing person but because of his looks.  When I was in beauty school, every time my dad would come into the salon to get his hair done all the girls would always say how HOT he was.  I have had to deal with my friends calling my dad "HOT" probably since Jr. High.  When my dad and I work out at the gym together, everyone would always ask if he was my boyfriend.  I know he looks young, but young enough to be my boyfriend?  I don't think so!!

My dad is such an amazing person.  If you know my dad, you know he looks like a tough guy but deep down inside he is a big softy.  He has such a funny personality and a pretty great sense of humor if you ask me.  I am like him in so many ways.  He is such a family guy, you can just tell he loves his family and would do anything for anyone of us!  He has always worked his butt off just so my family could have a boat or snowmobiles or nice cars.  He is my best friend, and I love that I can tell him anything.  He treats my mom SO amazing... Whenever they are together, you can just see the love my dad has for my mom.  I have defiantly put my dad through some rough times when I was a teenager but he always stuck by my side and ALWAYS let me know he was there for me no matter what.  My dad is my best friend and I could ask for a better dad! I hope he knows how much I love him and I hope he had the best Fathers Day!!

Did I mention my dad is a pro at surfing??

Lookin good dad!!!

Our new home

We have FINALLY finished decorating our kitchen and living room.  I didn't realize how hard it would be to decorate a house.  I am not creative, and I am defiantly not the decorating type BUT I think I did a pretty good job on decorating my very first house (:  We FINALLY got our shutters put in a couple of weeks ago, and I think it made our house look ten times better!  I am so glad we ended up getting shutters instead of blinds.

We painted Taitym's room last night and I LOVE the color we picked.  Steve and his dad are going to do one more coat of paint this weekend, then we can start decorating her room!  We also bought a brand new KING SIZE bed set for our room.  I am so excited to have some space in our bed and not sleep so close to Steve (he snores and it's literally HELL trying to get sleep at night.)  We always end up hitting and kicking each other at night because we are so use to having our own big bed to ourselves.  

Here are some pictures of our house... ENJOY!!

11 weeks and 6 days to go!!

I finally made it to my 3^rd trimester.  I hope these next 3 months go by fast. At my last doctor’s appointment my iron levels were way low and my doctor told me I am Anemic and I will need to start taking Iron pills.  I had never take iron pills before so I had NO idea what I was getting into.  Let me just tell you, I have been miserably sick and I hate every minute of these damn pills.  Steve and I are going to San Diego in a couple of weeks and my doctor told me I won’t be able to go on vacation if my iron levels drop anymore.  So I am just fighting through this hell so I can go on our MUCH NEEDED VACATION!!!  The last time I went to California I was probably 8 years old so I am so excited to go.  I just wish I could go on all the fun rides at Disney Land.  But I think I have convinced Steve to take me to the San Diego Zoo and Sea World.  I wouldn’t mind a few days just laying out on the beach and relaxing.  I am in desperate need of a tan.

I honestly can’t believe how fast these past 6 months have gone by!  Baby Taitym will be here before we know it.  Taitym is always moving and kicking.  She never sits still (which is a good thing but could also be a bad thing.)  I have a feeling she is going to a handful just like her mama (:  I can’t wait for our little girl to be here with us.  I can’t wait to run errands with her and just have my little buddy with me all the time.  My brother and sister in law just had a baby in February so I have been around my nephew a ton since he has been born.  He is so dang cute and is at such a fun stage.  He is always smiling and laughing and just loves my brother.  Just being around him makes me even more excited to be a mommy. 

Steve and I just bought our first house about a month ago (I will post pictures soon.)  We have been so busy trying to make the house feel like “Our Home” that we haven’t even started on the nursery.  I finally picked out the colors of her room though so hopefully I can get Steve to start painting.  I still need to find a crib and changing table, so if you have any suggestions on where to get a nice crib let me know!!  I have found a few that we like but I want Steve to come with me to pick it out!  I am hoping since Steve has this Saturday off (which happens like once a month) we can go and buy a crib.  It still hasn’t hit me that we are going to be parents, so I am hoping once we get her room done all of this will seem more real!!
