BABY HUNGRY..

In about 3 days, rob and I will have been married for exactly 7 months... It's crazy to think how fast time just flew by! We've been attending this amazing family ward here in Fayetteville but there's one thing about being in a 'family' ward that can be slightly pressuring..... Babies, EVERYWHERE! Lol. From women who have just found out they were pregnant, women who are already pregnant and/or about to pop, TONS of newborns, lots of toddlers running' around.... its a little hard to NOT think about having a baby of my own. Not to mention almost everyone back home in Utah getting pregnant as well..[insert jealous face here]...

Not only have I thought about it for the past month, I've been checking out the cutest toddler clothes on Pinterest almost every single night and have already picked out some names for our first girl and/or boy.... I even picked names if we had twin boys or twin girls... And I have a name if we somehow have fraternal twins; 1 boy 1 girl..... Yea, can you tell it's been on my mind for awhile now?? Lol.

Rob gets so annoyed when every single time a mother walks by us with her newborn in arms I always (loud) whisper to him, "LOOK AT THE BABY!!!!", with a huge smile on my face.

It does make me sad a little that I see all these mothers at church with their babies but Robs always the one to make me feel better when I'm in my 'babyhungry' moods.. :) Even though we agreed that we're waiting, we've always said that 'whatever happens, happens' and when it's my time to be a mother.. We'll be blessed with a baby of our own.

Just the other day when Rob and I were taking a litte road trip to Fort Smith, I found a picture of my two nieces (my older sister Pumpkins kids) on our iPad photo album..... And just outta the blue, tears started rolling down my cheeks. I don't know if I cried because I missed them and was baby hungry, or if I was baby hungry because I missed them. Does that make sense??? Rob knows that my two nieces were everything to me, and being in two different states were already a little rough as it is. So when they moved to Australia, it was a little harder to deal with. Probably because Australia is just so far to me........ But if I could, I'd visit them everyday :) I miss them sooooo much!

My sister Maile, my sister-in-law Sweets and Robs cousin Leta are all pregnant with their first babys and I'm so excited to see these new family additions when they come out! Lol. My time will come :) Who knows when......... But it will :) Until then I'm just gonna enjoy the babies I'll have around me. :)

A little break..

This past week was Robs spring break and since we couldn't afford to fly anywhere we spent our Spring Break exploring Arkansas and just having some quality time to ourselves. Unfortunately up until Wednesday it was raining like crazy down here (which I didnt mind, but Rob was very mad lol) so we just stayed in our apartment and watched movies or just had some friends over and played games. I also got really sick last week Saturday and was literally on bed rest for about 3 days :( and NO, not pregnant sick. Lol. I had a huge sinus infection... So sorry guys, no baby post yet ;) Lol.

Thursday the skies finally cleared and we decided to head to Springdale (the next town over) to play some volleyball at a rec center........ But as lame as I am, I got there and decided to just sit out because I didn't know anyone and the court was always packed. Lol. And Friday morning Rob and I headed to Fort Smith (a city about 45minutes away) to spend the night with my friend Jess and her fiancé at his apartment. Jess made dinner, I made dessert, and decided to take a drive to a casino in Oklahoma because my husband was just itching to learn how to gamble.... Annoying, I know. Lol. Fort Smith is like 20 minutes away from the Oklahoma border.... So we didnt really have to drive far. But we honestly got there and had no idea what we were doing so we left and decided to end our night off bowling! :) LOL

It may not have been your idea of an awesome Spring Break, but it was good enough for me :) I got to spend some quality time with my husband and also have some time to myself...... Good company and good food is all I need to have a good time :)

Now, we're saving up to (hopefully) go on our summer trip to our most favorite place!

......Salt Lake City, Utah to visit our loves! <3
