Bring on the baby!!!!!

A little update to my blogging family! I went to the Dr. today and still not a whole lot of progress. Which is ok, I have come to terms with her being stubborn. Brock and I are already trying to strategise on how to handle her! I will go in on Wednesday and they will hopefully get things going, so maybe Thursday. Keep your fingers crossed!

Happy Due Date.... I guess!

Yes, as you can see the baby ticker on the side has reached a big fat 0!!!!!! I am due today and still no baby Stella! I even had a false alarm..... I went in to get a non-stress test this morning anyway to make a long story short I thought my water had broken so they admit me. I get into the gown get my game face on thinking "ok this baby is coming today!" and they send me home. So I am back to square one!! We will keep you posted!
Love to all~

New Teams and Baby update!

This past weekend we had our UVU Dance Team auditions. Can I just say how amazed I am at the talend we have in Utah! It was somewhat of a pay off day to see all the time and dedication I have put into my little job here, we had 98 girls show up for the audition!!! I know, I was a little overwhelmed and sorting through that many didn't even give me a sign of labor! We ended up with an amazing team and several others I would have loved to take and hope they come back next year. The fun part is that 13 of my returning girls made it and will come back for another great year!!I have posted those new UVDT members and UVU Cheer members on our website www.uvu.edu/spiritsquad. We also had cheer try-outs a couple weeks ago and that too was extremely successful, 40+ girls and enough guys to choose from! We have an amazing and talented squad with 11 guys and 12 girls with a total of 15 returning members! I hope that labor is this successful, ahhhh !!
And as you can guess I still have not had the baby, the official due date is Thursday but you better believe that we are trying everything under the sun! My doctor estimates an 8 pounder!!! Wish me luck!!

Update on UVDT and still no baby!

Another week... another win! I am so excited for my dance team, they competed down in florida this week and placed 2nd going into finals and ended up third in the Dance Division 1. I unfortunately couldn't be there because of this stubborn baby who won't come out, I do have a week or so left but am getting a little impatient, it's been nine months already! Anyway I couldn't be more proud of this years team and it just reminds me that I am truly lucky to have such a great job and work with these great students! Go UVDT! I will post pics when I can get my hands on some, but go to www.varsity.com click on NCA/NDA Collegiate Nationals and search for UVU.

Moving, baby showers and National Champs!

I have been in a whirlwind of chaos the last several weeks! But I am not complaining, I have loved every minute of it and am also savoring the freedom I have with this little girl still inside me! I have never felt the love by friends and family so much from help with moving and meals being brought in and good friends throwing showers for me and little Stella (that is her name, or so Brock says until we see if she really looks like a Stella!). I have also been overwhelmed with pride for the UVU Cheer Squad and them taking 1st at the USA National Competition last weekend. We also had try-outs this week and I had all but one want to return! This has been such a great time in my life and I can't wait for it to get a little better (hopefully sooner than later- please come out baby!)

Here's some photos to catch you up.......
Shower with friends from Highshcool! Jan is an amazing hostess! Julie and I are both due the same week, hopefully we will be in the hospital together, you couldn't seperate us while we were in Jr. High so why should it be different! Thank girlies!Here I am at a work shower, I love all of my co-workers! They got us a swing, so exciting!





Brock's friends wives threw me a shower on Saturday, all four of us in this picture are due in the next 5 months! I love them all and it's a good thing because when we get together we rarely see our husbands! This one was also well hosted by everyone, thanks guys!



Here is the cheer squad at the Nationals Send-off party. I don't have any pictures of them actually competing because I can't travel right now but go to http://www.varsity.com/ and you can find their nationals routine on there!
