Expecting Daddy, isn't he cute?!
Getting fatter and fatter...
I'm ready for him to come, I'm hoping he comes soon (beginning of May would still be great even though its past my due date!). If I'm induced, I still probably have 2 weeks left, seems like forever...
Me, putting together the baby dresser... I should have made Garrett do that one because it ended up being the hardest thing to put together!
Garrett painting above the stairs...
Brody and Colby have been coming over often with their mom and hanging out, helping sometimes too!
I've been a slave driver to Bon, she's put in many hours here!
Brody was so eager to help paint, thanks buddy!
Garrett painting the baby's room..
Old ward shower, me and the host: Marissa. She did a great job! Thanks girl!
Jacobson family shower, thanks girlies! I had lots of helpers opening presents! 
Friend shower, someones always got to be dirty... Who knows what Em is doing here... ;) You guys are cute lil party planners, thanks!!
I'm 39 weeks this week and my exact due date is April 29th... Taking bets on when he's coming! We think he'll come late, we always have. What do you think?! (come on, someone give me some hope he's coming sooner rather than later!). Major award to the winner!
Like many of you I'm sure, we have been super busy lately. We have been swamped with house projects (they seriously never end!), we spent about 4 or 5 hours in Home Depot last Saturday finally getting a ton of stuff that will keep Garrett super busy... doors, light fixtures, etc. I just wish he had more time, he's barely had time for home work and he was sick yesterday because he's so worn out! I wish I was more help with some of it! I'm just so glad I have such a handyman, if I didn't, all these repairs/updates would get very expensive! I've been doing what I can do: decorating, helping Garrett with bigger stuff, even some craft projects (shhh, don't tell). I had a surge of energy last week and felt motivated to get stuff done (I think I just realized how close it was getting... oh and the fact that Garrett believed me that I said I was going into labor on April Fools scared me a lil...) but this week I've mostly just felt exhausted and we're both sleeping very deep! Which is probably good, since pregnant women aren't known to sleep good this far along and I probably wouldn't if I was going to bed earlier or if I was able to nap or something so I do appreciate that! Other than the extreme pain I get under my ribs (i think its a mixture between ligaments stretching and babys foot in there, it hurts so bad sometimes though!) and it waking me up every night and killing multiple times during the day, and the constant back ache, head aches, inability to move well, siatic nerve (spelling?), exhaustion...I'm doing great! ;) ha ha jk, I really can't complain too much (just a little). Carson's room is getting closer... His crib came in the mail last week, it's still in the box but it's here! Glider came on Monday and his dresser shipped out today (yes, I've become a big fan of online shopping recently, that's what happens when you barely have time to get to the store!). I finally washed some of his clothes, just in case he comes early (he's not though, expect him the first week of May). My mom has a few stripes to finish painting on his wall and Garrett needs to get the chair rail up and then I think things will come along a lot faster and I'll be able to start putting things away and setting up his room. When that time comes, I'll get pictures and post! As ready as I am to be done, it's probably good he's going to be a little late because I'd like to feel a little prepared! Some people don't think it matters probably but I know many do so I'm not abnormal! I'm definitely a planner! As much as I tell myself to not worry about it all and just relax (I tell myself that everyday and it only works if I'm really tired), I still want it all to feel ready so I can relax better at some point... Anyways, that's what we've been up to, not too exciting I guess. Sorry if this was a little whiney, just stating the facts.. ;)
Garrett has started a fishing blog, you all know how much he loves it! I'm sure he'd love it if you all went and checked it out and commented on some of his posts to help get it going! It's www.fishin-fanatics.com
Should I dye my hair darker again? I keep thinking about it and keep trying to ignore it because 1-Garrett likes my natural hair and it did take a while to grow out all the last dye and 2-I'm kind of lazy and don't necessarily want the "maintenance" of dying my hair again but at the same time I want something new and I like dark short hair so much more than the color I have, I think... I would probably do the same color I had before, dark brown with a hint of purplish hue...
