| Last picture I took with him and last time I saw him 1/1/12 |
My sweet grandfather passed away May 7th and it was really sad to be so far away from my family and to not be able to travel either. I felt stuck and useless. I'm so grateful for Bianca and for her to be there for me that night and making me feel SO much better. Later that week I read President Uchtdorf talk from this past general conference titled Grateful in Any Circumstances and I loved the whole talk, especially this:
"When we are grateful to God in our circumstances, we can experience gentle peace in the midst of tribulation. In grief, we can still lift up our hearts in praise. In pain, we can glory in Christ’s Atonement. In the cold of bitter sorrow, we can experience the closeness and warmth of heaven’s embrace."
I will tell baby J all about his great abuelo Mario.

| Front pictures are almost disturbing haha first we got the linea nigra and then the ackward belly button and then the shape of the belly. Depending on how the baby is, sometimes it's perfectly round and other times my whole left side is a sinking hole while he relaxes on the right side. |

| I thought I was big at 20 weeks, then I thought there was no way I'd get any bigger at 30, and now I'm just amazed at how much my body can handle! It really is mind blowing and I still can't believe I'm actually pregnant and due any day now! |

| Bianca
completely surprised us by getting us 12 cloth diapers! From BumGenius
to Kawaii and BeeChanged. I love all the colors and patterns she chose.
The little stack on the right are the ones Jon and I had. We are so
grateful for her and helping us start our stash of cloth diapers. I
freaking love you Bianca! | |

"nothing is more awkward than carrying a heavy plastic car seat with one arm" it's so true. Jon and I hated the idea so after much research we purchased the Boba 4g Carrier.

I'm surprised your boobies can still fit in that bra! My boobs are freaking ginormous now and they were big to begin with! You are such a cutie preggers lady though! I'm very jealous!
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised my boobs have barely grown! Pregnancy was the only hope I had to have my dreams of at least filling up an entire A cup come true. I'm hoping that after the baby comes they will plump up lol and thank you, no need to be jealous you're gorgeous.
DeleteAwesome Jess! I really hope he's here by the time I visit. I'm really sorry to hear about your grandpa….and feeling helpless..I know how you are feeling. Yeah make sure you don't leave your baby in the carseat for too long or he might need a dang helmet….dangit!!! Also….I'm jealous you're starting out w cloth diapers. Because now that I've done disposable I can't go back….so good job lady!! It'll be gross, but changing any type of butt is gross!! haha!! love you!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ash, I love you!
DeleteAnd yes I agree, cleaning butts it's gross! and he WILL be here when you're here visiting.
