Finished Tile!

Here is the finished product of our new tile. It is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!

We used to have carpet under the table. The tile makes our kitchen feel so much bigger.

TA DA! I went through and cleaned everything in the kitchen. I deep cleaned the the fridge in and out, the counters and dusted everything that collected dust from the putting in the tile. It feels like I have a whole new kitchen! Good thing I have all this time on my hands now that I'm not working.

TILE!

Tyler did all the grouting himself, and we're finishing that tonight, so I decided to help clean up after him on the first clean sweep. I was glad I at least participated in some portion of this project since I didn't help with anything else. You can't tell too much, but my belly is really hanging down!

Here is the tile laid but no grout yet. Doesn't this look sooo good?

Here is our kitchen/dining room with our flooring all tore out. My dad and Bryson(brother-in-law) helped Tyler rip everything out one day. Then a couple friends in our ward helped Tyler lay the tile. Thank goodness we had some help. It was Tyler's first time working with tile, but it turned out AWESOME! It sure beat paying someone to do it for us.

Here is Tyler when I am at 36 weeks. He's lost probably 5 pounds while I've gained 35.

Here is me at 36 weeks! I'm getting close!

We went to my Aunt's house for Christmas Eve and took a picture in front of their beautiful tree! Too bad you can't see the full tree because it was amazing.

This is an old roommate Julie. She is due a week after me with her SECOND kid. Crazy Girl!

Tyler and I before our ward Christmas Party. We had such a blast! We even danced some good ol' country swing dance for a while. I could only last so long with my huge belly but I did twirl a few times.

THE Christmas Tree

Sorry the pictures go from finish to start so you may need to scroll to the beginning of this and go upward.

Decorating ourselves and the tree

Yay! I am as tall as the tree! Don't I look excited?

This is just the beginning

PREGO PICTURES!

This is me at....14 weeks. Or somewhere around there, and my SWEET mountain bike in the background.

This is me at 20 weeks. I would find out next week that a BOY is on the way.

After my Ultra Sound I stopped counting by weeks, so this is me with 4 months left...or somewhere around there.

So after people were shocked I didn't know what week I was on...I started counting again! This is me at 29 weeks. And my beautiful Orange wall in the background. This is my favorite wall in the entire house.

This is me and my rock...attempting to skip it on the water

This is Tyler and his rock (Massive) attempting to skip it on the water. Can I just say...Future Geologist in the making right here?

Right now our Sunday church schedule is Tyler leaves all morning and I meet up with him at 2:30-5:30 for church. I'm not a huge fan of the late schedule but it only lasts for a year! wahoo. This last Sunday was Stake Conference so we were done by noon, so Tyler and I decided to take a trip up to the Deer Creek Reservoir and explore. The weather was so nice! I was in short sleeves and no coat.

Halloween!

There were different games going on at our Ward Halloween Party. They needed one more contestant so my Bishop started chanting Rachel Hair...Rachel Hair...and soon everyone chimed in so I couldn't turn them down...Needless to say the gummy worms in the whipped cream were not easy to chew and I did not win...It was fun though!

Me as a pregnant gangster...mostly because I really wanted to wear those pants (old high school basketball warm-ups) and Tyler in his grandpa's Air Force attire-It was the real thing and even had a patch that said "Hair" on it...The suit was just a tad-bit high-water on him and accentuated his long legs! Hilarious!

Tyler and I won the partner donut eating contest on a string. It was pretty tricky with no hands but we were able to eat it all without any falling on the floor...Now that takes talent.
