Well, Bekah's shower on Wednesday went really well. And cub scouts was, well what you'd expect it to be with seven 8 year olds running around.
Math was born at 6:56 am on Thursday morning so Scott and I drove out to see him. He's so adorable. Now we're just waiting for Fat Al to pop. Surprisingly Math now being with us has not yet made me more impatient for mine. Though I'm sure it will soon enough. Friday we went to the Angels game. A 10-4 loss against the A's but I felt like we won because we scored 2 in the bottom of the 9th, I got to be with my wonderful husband and my parents, and the firework show after the game was spectacular.(totally beats Disneyland's)
I have decided to pick up crocheting again, and now I remember why I stopped: It's so hard.
:( Well practice makes perfect right? I'm trying to make Bisquit a baby blanket. Well have to see if it ends up looking anything like it should. I've been inspired by my sisters lately to get more arts and craftsy. Scrapbooking hasn't been to appealing lately. So I'm sticking with things that have to do with our almost new arrival. I seem to have more enthusiasm for projects that have to do with the baby. After I make the blanket I want to try to crochet some booties. They are way cute. I went up to 40 inches when I measured my belly last week, but today I was back down to 39 so I guess well say Buscuit is laying the other direction today.
Well, life is moving rather quick lately, I'm just trying to keep up. I can't believe I've only got 10 weeks till I get to hold my baby girl. It's the little things in life that make to big things not so big. And family, of course, is always a supportive foundation. I love my family so much. And I miss the ones that are not nearby. Love you guys, Thanks for all you are!

Busy, Busy
Yesterday I cleaned and rearranged our bedroom in an attempt to make it seem bigger and it worked. It is much more enoyable to be in the room now. Biscuit's stuff is all in the crib for now but Scott and I have fun plans for that soon to come.
Well yesterday was opening day at Angels stadium. Angels had a 6-3 victory over the Minnesota Twins. It was very awesome. And then Erica and I kicked butt at rook over our husbands! Fun times.
And then I woke up this morning. I had so much on my to do list that of course I procrastinated the most important ones. I have to teach cub scouts tonight and Bekah's shower is tomorrow night. I've got to rearrange some furniture to accommodate as many people as we invited. I also should get some cleaning and shopping done for it. But instead I took care of bills and did 6 chapters for my online logistics class. Why is it so hard to do the work that is top priority? Just for the record I fully intended to get one of those things done when I saw Crys' challenge to blog at least ten more times in April. It'll be okay though, I work much better under pressure.

Easter
Easter weekend this year was quite interesting. Saturday I was babysitting Sara and Noah and after Elthon and Sean left for Priesthood Session Cassey, Allison, and I enjoyed chasing 5 toddlers around Carol's backyard or an Easter egg hunt. Good thing Noah was plenty happy to sit in the stroller. Jasher of course went straight for the pool and bent down to touch it. Aaron threw the basketball in the pool and then kept saying "I get the ball." Luckily no one went in. Those toddlers all run a lot faster than two 9 month pregnant women and me at 7 months. It was a lot of fun though. On Sunday we had a nice delicious Easter dinner. We got Biscuit a cute dress for Easter.
I love Easter because it seems that it still represents the resurrection of Jesus Christ to most the world. Whereas Christmas has become more crowded with presents and political correctness. Plus Easter doesn't have the added stress of Christmas shopping. It's nice to just take the time to reflect on Jesus' resurrection and the atonement that was necessary for the resurrection to happen. I'm so grateful to my savior for enduring it all and breaking the bonds of death that all might live again.
