12 weeks

(yes very bad very unflattering picture when I was right off of work) Well I went into my 12 week check up yesterday. My blood pressure is down (it was a smidge high at 8 weeks) I found out my blood work is still perfect and I'm ab positive (I'm actually excited about this fact... I can get blood from everyone! It wont be an issue) I haven't gained weight from my last check up, and the five pounds I have gained is because I rediscovered how much I love ice cream. I have been craving things but I've discovered that if I have them then I wont become obsessed with them... like I did with raviolis for about six months. I'm excited that I'm out of the dreaded first trimester. I haven't gotten sick in about two weeks which makes me extremely happy. I'm not so tired anymore, still tired but I'm not going into comas for hours at a time and having my lovely husband sneaking pictures of me sleeping... in which case I feel asleep like this almost every day... glasses and all.

I do believe my next ultrasound is going to be my 20 week anatomical ultrasound. At that point we will be finding out what we are having. I always want to have another ultrasound. Its always neat to see whats going on.

This pregnancy is going all too fast for me... its crazy I'm already one third of the way done! The next six months better go slower or else I might go crazy....

Baby Bischoff

Well it took us three years, a LOT of tests (a lot of which really weren't that pleasant and made it so I couldn't walk for a few days) and a lot of stupid questions of little old women in my ward but I would officially like to announce that Ryan and I are pregnant. 8 weeks to be exact and I cant believe I didn't blab it over the entire Internet the first day I found out. I am due January 30th so it could go on either Ryan's birthday January 21st or my birthday February 2nd... I'm just glad I'm not going to be big and pregnant in the middle of summer. I'm sick... All the time. I've known since the week the child was created that I was pregnant because I could SMELL everything and thus made me sick. I'm trying different things to try to help but its something I just have to stick through. Work is hard because working in between three nursing homes every one smells like nasty B.o ... Lets hope for every ones sake that the world keeps going in a happy place and the sickness will be over soon!!! I'm a little worried about my knees hurting towards the end but I'll cross that bridge when I get to it. I'm not moody, but I do like weird food at this point and become fixated on it... like last Friday all I wanted was Grandma's chicken noodle soup and flaming hot Cheetos... life is great!!! Ryan has a job and will be graduating come September

Blogging

I will actually start blogging here very soon... I actually have stuff people might want to read about but I haven't found a good way to compile it all... Give me a month or so

Forever Family

Yes I know I'm a very slow blogger. Ryan and I had a very sad trip to Utah a few weeks ago. My cousin Jeffery's baby died of sids. As soon as Ryan and I found out we rearranged our schedules and drove to Utah. We stayed with my cousin Jeremy, his wonderful wife Nichole, and fabulous child Owenater!!! I love staying with them. Hotel Hamilton has a fabulous safari room!

The funeral was like something I had ever been to. Baby funerals are extremely sad. I am grateful that I have the church in our lives to know that familys can be together forever.



We had a blast with Owen. Ryan and him seemed like they had a lot of fun together. Yes I snuck a picture of them bumping hands in the back seat of the car.
We stopped by Nichole's Grandmas house to see gobble the turkey and Rambo the sheep. Must admit I've never seen a sheep so close before... They kinda smell but yet are cute at the same time.
Ryan and I felt like we needed to help in some way. So he went with Jer with my Uncle David and helped them move my cousins apartment. So we crawled under my cousins Jer's house and stacked everything up. If it helps it helps.
Ryan and I are very looking forward to the holidays. We are going to Ely for thanksgiving. I'm very much looking forward to taking the whole week off. Ryan and I need to find a way to go to Utah more often. Its nice to be around family.

Sad News

I found out today that my Cousin Jeffery's baby died last night. His name is Riley. He was the cutest little baby. It hit me so hard today. I found out and I just started crying. If you know me thats a big thing. I didn't even cry when I found out that my Grandpas died. Please keep them in your prayers.

yw and some 4th of July

Being in young women's I must admit is very entertaining. I know I'm in this calling for a reason. They are ... energetic. This is Autumn and Taylor slip and sliding... They are crazy!

I Believe Ryan's favorite holiday is the 4th of July. He gets all giddy and excited. We always go down to the valley of fire and grab us some illegal fireworks... not that bad just some bottle rockets. We also get normal fireworks like fountains a little tanks so that we can have tank fights.Bella seemed to enjoy them too

We set up some yard chairs by the side of the road. Jen and my mom came with and we watched the show. We are lucky the neighbors forked out a couple hundred dollars more on fireworks than we did. They had some big mortars going off. It was fun

Girls camp is the last week of July. I am going to completely be a princess. I am going to have my own tent. I'm really not a camping princess but I need my privacy and as a leader I have the ability to do such a thing. I have a feeling though that if there is a fight among the girls in camp I'm going to have a little someone extra in my tent with me. I hope not though
