• Food has yet to guide my daily routine. I just know that I have to put something down so I don't pass out. Dizziness occurs between my meals. It is now time for a good six to seven small meals a day vs my typical three.
• Traveling while pregnant and claustrophobic in a little plane was not as bad for me as it was for the person behind me. Luckily I had my iPad with me listening to music and was stuffy so both my ears and nose couldn't witnessed what occurred directly behind me. Once I noticed, my stomach dropped and I flew off that plane to the porcelain.  I seem to claim a toilet everywhere I go.
• Walking up stairs crush my lungs more and more each day.
• Some nights I would swear that summer was here. But it's not even spring yet!!!

Powell, WY

I was lucky enough to go visit my best friend in Powell, WY over this past week. She is the Head Women's Basketball Coach at Northwest College. It is an extra special trip as that is were I played! I was also able to take some pictures. Here are a few from her 3 games I was able to see.

I also took some during her last regular season practice.

Basketball Hoop

Of the 3 years I lived in Powell, WY, I never knew of this barn with an old hoop near it. What an amazing sight!!

Old Truck

I came across this old truck in a parking lot near my friends house in Powell, WY. If only it was a Ford!

• In the last month since our last appointment, nothing has really changed.
• Hearing our baby's heartbeat for the first time was more amazing that my dreams made it out to be.
• Waiting another month to see if it is a boy or girl is going to be hard. How did my parents wait the entire 9 months? Thank you technology... I love taking advantage of you.
• Procrastination is now easier. I leave for a week long trip tomorrow morning and I have yet to pack. Is it too early to play the pregnancy card and sit while I make Scottie pack for me?
• My memory or lack there of, makes me crazy! What will I forget to take with me to WY?

• The honeymoon stage is close to starting, although once a week I am thrown back to the porcelain. 
• I still can see my toes!!
• Being 6' tall already makes it hard to find shirts long enough, will I be shopping the big and tall store instead of maternity to cover this growing baby? 
• My hands are swollen all day long that my wedding ring no longer fits. Do I go for the single look or find a ring to wear in the interim? 
• I will be flying in an airplane to Cody, WY soon. Will there be enough room for my belly? I already cannot sit the same... and in a large plane I am nervous, but what about the small 10 seater I have to take from SLC to Cody?? And I am claustrophobic. Already the dreams have started. 

Vallivue Youth Basketball

Over the past 4 Saturdays, Scottie has been running a Youth Basketball Program for Vallivue. Today I was able to join him and took some team pictures. It was a blast! A bunch of young kids up early on a Saturday, with their bed hair and sleepy eyes. Scottie's players are also the officials. What a great experience for both Scottie and his players. Now if only they could have him run this program another time than during his basketball season. It makes for a very tired husband and coach by the time Sunday rolls around.
