Memory Bandwagon

I am jumping on the memory bandwagon post.

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.
EVERYBODY PLAY!

The Wait Is Over

Okay, we finally went and bought a camera this weekend. Here are a belly shots I have been promising to you all. It had been a long day so not the greatest picture. This is at 25 weeks.



I went to the Dr. last week and all is well. She said everything looks great and on track. At the end of the month we get to do another ultrasound. I'm excited to see him now that he is a lot more developed.

Camera problems

This weekend we had a canoe trip with our ward. Let me tell ya, it was not an enjoyable weekend. The camping wasn't too bad, but it rained and then it rained almost the whole time we were canoing. Needless to say my camera got soaked and so I will have to postpone my belly shot until we go get another one. Sorry guys!

Wakeboarding 101

So, my loving husband was having a hard time wakeboarding. He could get up, but once he got up wasn't sure exactly what to do. So he thought with the help of a new wakeboard that was for beginners, he would be able to stay up. Well I don't know if it was all mental, but he did really well last weekend. I was so proud of him! Here is a little clip.

For those of you wanting a picture of my belly, I will have it this weekend along with an update!

The Verdict Is In

IT'S A BOY! Ben's wish came true and I am having a boy. We went to the Dr. on Friday and at first he had his legs crossed again, but he was nice and squirmy so she finally was able to tell. We are so excited!! His name will be Caleb Allen Fuller. Also, on Friday night when we were laying in bed, Ben was able to feel him kick. It was a very exciting day for us!

First Lake Trip

So the weather was finally good enough to go to the lake this weekend. Ben and I had been looking forward to it all week. Friday night we go to Walmart and get a tube and a rope, make sure all the life jackets are sprayed off and dry, and get everything ready to go. Saturday we get up and get snacks and water and head off to the lake, which is only 10 miles from our house! We get there and the boat won't start. The battery was totally dead. So we go to the marina where the guys give us something to charge the battery. Then all of a sudden it starts thundering and lightening. So we sit in the car and wait while the battery on the boat is charging. Finally the storm passes and we back the trailer up to put the boat in and it starts. Yay! Because of all the rain we have got this year, the lake is flooded and you all but have to drive your car into the water in order to get the boat off. But we did it and thought all our problems were over with. Well the boys wanted to tube so we blow up the tube and they get on it and we start to go and it rips at the seems ( I guess that's what we get for buying it at Walmart). So we go back to the marina and call our friends that are on their way to have them stop at a boat place and get a quality tube. Just as we are pulling up it starts pouring rain. We dock the boat and hang out at the marina for a little bit and our friends get there with the tube. Yay! The sun came out and the rest of the day was very enjoyable. We had fun tubing and wakeboarding and swimming. Ben got up wakeboarding 3 times. I was so proud of him. I somehow got burnt really bad on my arms and a little on my legs. I 'm not sure how only that part got burnt when I kept applying sunscreen. I don't know if it is because I am pregnant or not, but this hurts more than any other burn I have ever got and I have burnt way worse.



These pictures don't even do it justice. Hopefully it heals soon! I think we are going to try out luck this next weekend and hopefully it is much better!

Memorial Day Weekend

I know it has been a long time since I have updated, but we are alive and well. We had the opportunity to go to Utah this past weekend and meet up with my family and visit with a lot of my extended family. We got there on Thursday night and went to dinner for my Mom's birthday at Crown Burger (they have the best fry sauce) with some of my mom's family. Friday morning we went to the temple and I almost didn't get in because I had forgotten my recommend in my temple bag. Luckily I had my one without the barcode still and they took it. I was so relieved and happy. We spent the rest of the weekend visiting both our families and shopping. The weather was freezing and it rained on Monday, the one day we wanted sun so we could go walk around the cemetery. Oh well, it was nice to visit my sister's grave. It had been a long time. Then we come back to rain, of course, does it ever not rain in Arkansas? But at least it was in the 70's instead of the 50's. I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day Weekend! Here are some pictures of the weekend.
