Belly Update

Tucano's and Snow

On Saturday, we went to Tucano's to claim my Free Birthday Meal! Now that November is almost over and everything...

I LOVE the grilled pineapple!!

When we were done eating... This is Jake's "Meat Coma" face. I went home and took a nap after that!!

And Saturday night we had a big snowstorm come in!! When I woke up at 6 AM on Sunday, we already a few inches on the ground. It snowed steadily until almost 11 AM!

**These pictures were taken using our new camera that we got during our Black Friday shopping!

I'm thankful for the amazing blanket one of my past patients made for Baby Herrington!!

It has super cute LDS fabric! Depicted all the important events in a good little Mormon boy's life!

The quilting is all patterned in squiggles and stars!

Month of Thanks - Day 11

I'm thankful for my computer. Despite its quirks and illnesses. It's quite vital to my life.

Month of Thanks - Day 10

I'm thankful for painkillers. Mainly tylenol, as that is my drug of choice these days because it is considered the most baby friendly.

The 7th was my birthday!!! So I'm grateful for that!!

Jake got sidewalk chalk and decorated our porch!! So this is what I saw/see (it's still on there) when I look out the window.

I got pumpkin pie!!

This is the new dress Jake got me!

And my family sent this tasty bouquet of fruit!! YUMMY!!

Month of Thanks - Day 6

Today I'm thankful for....

LAURA!

Not that she ranks BEHIND batteries or refrigerators... but I saved her for Day 6 because November 6th is her birthday! And now she is 17 whoppin' years old!

Anyways. She's fun to have around. And I'm grateful for her and that she had a happy birthday.

Month of Thanks - Day 5

Today I'm thankful for...

THE REFRIGERATOR!!

Might be a silly thing... But it keeps all my food nice and edible!

And it makes it possible for me to make large batches of things (lasagna, soup, etc) and then save them for a week or however long. So that I don't have to cook every single day! Or go to the store every day!

Wonderful!

Month of Thanks - Day 4

Today I'm thankful for....

Rechargeable batteries!!!

Particularly the ones in my cell phone and laptop!!!

Too bad that since my digital camera took a trip down the Provo River in 2009, it has gone through batteries like you wouldn't believe! haha.

Month of Thanks - Day 3

I am thankful for...

Baby Herrington!!

He's set to arrive in mid-late February. And we're getting excited! It is fun to get to feel him moving around now and seeing him in the ultrasounds.

Month of Thanks - Day 2

Today I'm grateful for...

MY PARENTS!!

Obviously they've had a huge impact on who I am today. And continue to do so.

I don't get to see too much of them these days. (although we will for Christmas and I'm super excited about it!!) But they're awesome and I'm glad to have had them around.

Month of Thanks - Day 1

So... yes... this is a little late. But yesterday was a busy day! I was up EARLY to be to work by 6:00 AM and then was out until after 11 PM for clinicals.

But, the first thing I'm thankful for is....

JAKE!!

He is awesome. He fixed the car door yesterday for me. While I tried to take a nap between work and clinicals. And he bought he my favorite Reeses candies! And he always comes to snuggle me when I'm going to bed - even if he will still be up doing homework for a while.

Basically, he is awesome and amazing and after knowing him for over two years (including almost one and a half years of marriage) I LOVE him and can't imagine my world without him. I'm soooo grateful he came into my life.
