Last trip... before the baby

We went to California again last weekend and it was wonderful. Man, I can't get enough of the beach! Our trip started off a little hectic but we finally made it out of town and didn't get to Oceanside until midnight. We had to wake up nice and early because Aaron was running the "mud run." This run has to be one of the funnest 10ks I have ever heard of. I was sooooo jealous that I wasn't running it. It is at Camp Pendleton, which is a Marine Corp base. So, basically it is a run with a bunch of obstacles to go through on the way. You climb up muddy walls, run through tires, cross a river which Aaron said it came up to his chest and a few other things. And at the end you have to crawl through this big mud pit. Now if that doesn't sound like the funnest run then I am not sure what does!!!! Anyways we had to be there nice and early. Ezra wanted to run it so bad too! It was too cute. So he stretched with Aaron, gotta love it. Then cried hysterical when Aaron went to the starting line. We met up with some good friends. It was really good seeing them. It was a really fun to watch all the runners come across the finish line muddy. Once again I was so jealous. I thought for sure I could do the run 8 months prego, right. Ha! It would be hard enough not pregnant. Anyways Aaron did really well and he had so much fun. So, since I couldn't do it and he loved it do much we are going to do it next year.

The rest of the trip we just hung out at the beach. We all had a really good time. It's sad to think it will probably be a while before we got to the beach again.

Ezra loves the beach! Me sporting the 80's beach look! I kinda like it!

I caved in

Dude, I'm huge! Here is a picture of me at 31 weeks. Actually like 30 weeks and 5 days, who's counting. I am a lot bigger than I was with Ezra but what can you do. I think my whole body got pregnant this time around. My arms, thighs oh and lets not forget all the extra junk in the trunk I am lugging around. YIKES! I guess I'll just embrace it. And I finally have a date of the c-section. 8-7-08. I was going to try for 8-8-08 but my doc will be out of town. I am so excited to actually know when it's going to be. I guess that is one good thing about c-sections, you have no surprises. Unless I go into labor before which I highly doubt. I seriously can't wait. Get this child outta me! Can you tell I am not a big fan of the 3rd trimester. Wow! I hope this doesn't sound like I hate being prego. I'm not going to lie, I am not a lover of being pregnant but I am so grateful that I actually can be pregnant. With all the "female" problems I have I was a little worried. Seriously though, it is such a wonderful feeling to grow a baby and feel him move. It's crazy how much love you can have for a person that you haven't even met!

Happy Birthday

This is a little late but I just wanted to say Happy Birthday to Aaron. He is amazing and I seriously don't know what I would do without him. He is the love of my life. Ezra can't get enough of him. I actually think Ezra likes his daddy more than me but who wouldn't.

I can't get enough of this man! He is amazing and talented and smart. Oh gosh I can go on and on.

I can honestly say he is my better half. I love him!!!! He is handsome, super smart, he can always put a smile on my face, a great husband and father, he can fix anything, crazy, random, he has to build a sand castle every time we go to the beach, he keeps me on my toes, he always gives me a kiss goodbye, he is very patriotic, he loves to serve, kids love him, the list can go on.
Happy late birthday!!!! I love you!
