Pregnant and Bored

I have a problem. I get bored easily. It doesn't help that I "work" from home and have all the time in the world. On top of that, I am pregnant. Don't get me wrong, I am so happy to be pregnant, but it has been extremely difficult not being able to do some of the things I could 6 months ago. So I am on the lookout for "fun pregnant activities." I came up with my own list of ideas...and it has helped that the weather is warming up a bit. PLEASE tell me of any fun activities you can think of: I love being outside, it has to be cheap or free, and I like to be "active" (although I am limited as of right now). So good luck and thanks!

Read a book
Scrapbook
Go to the library/Barnes n Noble
Go for a walk
Shop for baby stuff
Work on baby announcements
Go to a $1 movie
Go to the temple
Go on a drive through a canyon
Go to the park: bocce (We did this last weekend); have a picnic or BBQ; feed the ducks
Write a letter
Play a board game
Have friends over for dinner
Bake cookies
Go to D.I.
Organize spare room (decorate)
Fly a kite
Make homemade ice cream

More organized:

Nickelcade (We did this last weekend too--so fun! We got a hackey sack with our tickets!)
Bowling
Chuck E Cheese (I plan on going once more before the baby comes...makes sense, huh?)
Mini golf
Frisbee golf

Tagged...all about Kevin and I

What is your husbands name? Kevin Parry Wilson
How long have you been together? How long did you date? We have been married almost 3 years (in May) and we dated for about 5-6 months before getting engaged.
Who said I love you first? Kevin said it like 4 times before I did. I was so scared! It's the "three words!"
Who is smarter? Definitely Kevin.
Who does the housework? We share in it, but since I am home during the day, I do most of it. I save the tub and toilet for him though. :)
Who sleeps on the right? I always sleep farthest from the door, regardless of which side.
Who pays the bills? Anything online--Kevin. But I write checks now if we need to.
Who cooks dinner? Both. We love team cooking.
Who drives when you are together? Kevin usually
Who is more stubborn? me
Who kissed who first? I can proudly say that I kissed Kevin first! I tried so hard to not be so bold. But in Kevin's defense, he had been trying to kiss me for several days, but I avoided the situation (I was scared!)
Who asked out who first? Kevin asked me to BYU's Homecoming. I jumped around the kitchen for 10 min. because I was so excited.
Who proposed? Kevin took me to American Fork Canyon where it was all snowy. We walked along the path and came across a dozen roses...then he asked me. Very romantical.
Who has more siblings? Kevin has 4 other siblings. I have 3.
Who wears the pants? Is this a trick question?
I tag...Trine

7 Random Things About Rhiannon

(I was "tagged" or something or other)

1. I'm a little OCD about some things...like I hate when the scrub brush in the sink is dirty and when the bedsheets are not straight.

2. I have gone cowtipping. If you have 10-15 minutes, I can tell you the whole story.

3. I enjoy bathroom humor. :)

4. I dressed up like a gorilla my junior year in college (only a couple days) and walked on BYU campus...and then "chimped" across University Pkwy. It was great. I'll have to post a picture sometime.

5. I claimed to have an "outty" belly button when I was little. At least it was pretty close. I don't anymore, however, unless you count being pregnant.

6. I wanted to be Cosmo the Cougar and went to the first day of tryouts.

7. I only had crushes on coaches and teachers in high school. The stories...

IT'S A BOY!!!



This comic is exactly how I felt. I really was excited to have either a boy or girl, I just wanted everything to be okay.

Granted, we totally thought we were having a girl (as did most of you), so we were completely surprised when they said he was a boy!

We are so excited! Let's be honest, I really needed to have a boy first. :)

**FEEL FREE TO SUGGEST BOY BABY NAMES!!! I won't even tell you what Kevin is thinking for a name!

Snowshoeing Extravaganzas


This winter, Kevin and I spent some time snowshoeing, the greatest Christmas gift ever! (thanks, mom)

The first trip we went on was up at Aspen Grove. It was so pretty! There were no trails, just snow everywhere! I think we saw one or two people the entire time...and that was on our way back to the parking lot.


Kevin "snowshoeing" at Aspen Grove. : )








Me in American Fork Canyon.....I hate computers. Someday I'll figure out how to rotate pictures.







Snowshoes!!!
