Girl's Weekend!!!

I was invited on a girl's trip to Salt Lake City last weekend by some friends, but unfortunately I wasn't able to go. I was bummed about it so I planned a girl's trip to SLC with my mom and sisters. We have NEVER done this before since any of us have had kids/been married so it was so much fun! I have never left Drake for longer than 4 hours so it was really hard for me to leave him. I cried all the way over to my mom's house about it and I called Trevor 12 times on Saturday (he counted). Thank you so much for taking care of Drake and letting me go Trevor- you seriously are the best husband in the world! We left Saturday morning and shopped all day long. It was a dream come true to shop with no kids. We ate at Tepanyaki (our favorite place) and then we watched a movie in the hotel. Then we came home on Sunday. It was such a blast! It helps that I was with three awesome ladies! I love my mom and sisters!!!

Me and my beautiful mommy

Me and my sister Breanne. It was fun to just lounge in the hotel after a long day of shopping and eating!!

Thanks for the trip mom

We had fun laughing, talking, and making fun of each other

Cool shades Breanne... they are her daughters!

We also stopped and said hi to my mom's uncle Dell. He is such and nice guy and is so much like my Grandpa!

Hopefully this can be a yearly occurance!

Playing outside

We have been playing outside every time we get a semi-warm day. Drake is loving getting out of the house and exploring outside. The only problem we have is a HUGE temper tantrum when it's time to come inside!

Playing at the park
Ready to go for a walk with Elmer and Ernie

Please spring warm up so we can go out and play more!!!

CrAzY dReAmS...

They say the when you are pregnant you have wild and vivid dreams. I am one of those people who never has dreams, but lately I am in dream land while I sleep!!! I don't really like it because most of the dreams are bad dreams. I just thought I would share where my imagination was last night...

Dream #1: I was in a forest with people (don't remember who) and there was a huge fire... I had to use all of my survival skills. For example, eating bugs, going potty in the forest, starting a fire with rocks and sticks even though there was a huge forest fire, and running away from scary forest animals. It wasn't a very fun dream!

Dream #2: Some mean person (unfortunately I don't remember who) made me lick a fire hydrant clean after a huge pack of dogs peed all over it. Why in the world would I dream about this?

Dream #3: The last dream, I was obsessing about writing on a poster board and hanging it on a strangers house. I was advertising for a girl's night out. I couldn't quite write well enough for my liking and I was very ticked off about it.

Let's hope I can sleep dream-less from now on.... Or at least have pleasant dreams.

Just a start...

Anyone that knows me well, knows that our little girl is going to have the hugest hair bow and pinkest outfit on at all times. I am so excited for this little girl to come. I haven't wasted any time, and I started on her bow collection! When we found out that Drake was going to be a boy I said to Trevor, "It's probably a good thing that our first one isn't a girl, because I think I would kind of feel bad for her because I would dress her up ALL THE TIME." I thought by the time the second one rolled around, the excitment of changing your baby all the time would calm down.... But I don't think so. I think it is just a GIRL thing! Don't worry, I really won't torture her... too much!

Drake is going to have a baby..........

...........................SISTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We found out tonight that baby #2 is going to be a girl! We are so excited! I really didn't care which gender we had, but I can't wait to go shopping and make cute little hair bows now!

Little Things....

I haven't taken any pictures lately because we haven't been doing anything exciting. I just wanted to write about the "little things" that I LOVE.............

• I love it that Trevor and I can still stay up talking for hours (till 2am) in bed about when we first met, and how we each can remember what each other was wearing on our first date. He also reassures me that he thought I was the cutest out of all my friends, even though he tried to date two of them before me (Stinker)!!!
• I love when Drake blows uncontrollable kisses to the world as I'm walking him up the stairs to go "night-night".
• I love it that Drake gets super upset if Trevor and I are wrestling around...... and always wants to save me even if I'm the one who is hurting Trevor. haha
• I love talking to my mom on the phone a million times a day about nothing.
• I love it that I saw Trevor cry in a movie for the first time ever the other day.... And it was because a man's wife had died and I just thought it was so sweet (sorry Trev).
• I love getting unexpected e-mails from friends that I haven't heard from in forever.
• I love looking at Drake and almost get tears in my eyes because I can't believe I've been blessed with such an adorable, amazing, sweet, healthy boy!!!

Little Things Matter Most

Weekend tidbits...

We went on a date over the weekend!!! We went to see Avatar finally. It was a good movie, but not really my type of show. I am more into the romantic-comedies!! But we had a great time and Drake had a great time with Grandma and Grandpa Petersen!

Just us two! We weren't looking our best (haha) but we still had fun!

Can you tell I was excited??? We hadn't been on a date in FOREVER so it was much needed!

Drake has been taking really long naps lately..... not that I'm complaining! After he woke up from his nap, Trevor went to get him and he fell right back to sleep. He has fallen asleep on our laps probably one or two other times ever!! Trevor was loving it! Also, I would like to proudly announce that he is completely done nursing. It has been a little over a week and he is doing great. But now I have him addicted to bottles. Oh well, we are taking it one step at a time I guess.
