S'more Samoa...

Our home for the next few months.. (our hotel room) our couch pulls out into a bed for anyone up for visiting! :)

The Job Site

My hard working husband... it's pretty humid here.. so needless to say he SWEATS.. and his laundry STINKS! haha :)

The girls hanging out while the boys went snorkeling after a long hard day of work

The Boys.. (Daniel, Chris, Landon, Austin, and Dean)

The Boys talking about their findings in the Ocean

He is such a little boy.. He is always the first to go in the water and last to get out. He is just eating up every second of being here...He LOVES to snorkel.

Picture Perfect

Dean and Austin enjoying the warm water...

Kaitlyn, Olivia, Me, Paxton and Brianna all ride our bikes everyday. We are so happy we shipped them out. It is a great work out!

My growing belly...

Church in American Samoa... What a fun experience! These people are so incredibly nice!

Dean and I left for American Samoa on July 11th for Dean's job. I was able to take a leave of absence from my work, which was so nice so that I can be out here with him. It has been such a fun and neat experience so far. It's beautiful here, and I can't believe how warm the water is. My tummy is growing everyday and I feel Titan moving all the time. I absolutely love it. I have to be back at work September 27th so by the time I get home it will be no time and Titan will be here. I am SO looking forward to that. We are enjoying this experience being here in American Samoa cause I'm sure once Titan is here things will be different. We are looking forward to what the future brings and enjoying everyday.

4th of July

Dean and I got dressed up and all matchy for the 4th of July and headed over to my parents house, and my sister Heather took some pictures for us. I was at 19 weeks when we took these. I think my sister does a GREAT job! Just thought I'd post these! :)

20 WEEKS- Half Way

I can't believe I'm already half way there! I have been feeling GREAT and don't really have any complaints. My headaches have gone away and it's been wonderful! Dean and I feel him kicking all the time now. It is the most amazing thing ever! Dean LOVES it.. He usually is pretty active late at night when I'm laying in bed. I am just enjoying every minute of it. I kind of have little freak outs like OH MY GOSH I'M PREGNANT!! (but, not really "freak outs" because I am stoked out of my mind) It's just crazy to me that I'M going to have a little one that is MINE to care for! I can't wait to see what he looks like. So many exciting things to look forward to!

Titan's Bedding

Here it is.... the room isn't done yet.. We are still trying to figure out what we're going to do above the crib, but I think we might have figured it out tonight. So, Dean will be busy building a few more things. Oh, also a shout out to Dean for re-painting the room. It was yellow.. (before we were pregnant) but then decided we didn't like it. So, he painted it again! Thanks DEAN!! And thanks again HEATHER for working on the bedding with me. We did the bed skirt, the bumpers, the blanket in the crib, the 2 pillows on the chair, the curtains, and the changing pad cover.Hope I didn't leave anything out.  I'm sure we'll be doing a few more projects. But, I am just so excited it's all coming together.

13 week picture.. 3 weeks late

Don't REALLY want to post this picture cause I look so BLAH! haha..and I look so big for 13 weeks. I think the shirt makes me bigger than I really am. I think I look about the same and I'm 16 weeks now. I REALLY need to take another picture but I guess I haven't really gotten ready for a while that I'm not ready for a picture. haha.. I will do it soon though. I'm am anxiously awaiting for Titan to kick me! haha.. I feel my tummy everyday and really concentrate trying to feel any movement. Sometimes I think I feel something.. but then I think it's all in my head. I love how Dean talks to my tummy every night and tells Titan he loves him and cant wait to meet him. It makes my heart melt. Since I've been in my 2nd trimester I haven't felt so nauseous anymore. But my headaches are extremely rough. I am just so excited and I'm enjoying every moment of being pregnant. My sister and I made Titan's bedding and curtains and pillows and... whatever else.. It was so fun to pick out the fabric and see it all come together. a HUGE THANKS TO MY SISTER HEATHER!!  Thank you so much for helping me.. and when I say helping I really mean.. pretty much doing the whole thing! haha.. but I love it.. I will post those pictures soon.. along with my 16 week belly pic..

I've been feeling great for the most part I just get extremely bad headaches.. but, I cant complain I am so grateful for this blessing growing inside of me. I love seeing Dean and his excitement..
