31 Weeks down! 9 to go!
I'm 31 weeks today! Its really exciting. I remember being 15 weeks and thinking 30 weeks seemed so far away...and here I am punching right along! I don't have any pics of my 31 week bump right at this moment but I will post some later.
For my 31 week post I thought I would mention a few things baby related that other moms or future moms might like to check out.
Monday I took a Breastfeeding Class from American Fork Hospital and I'm so glad I did. It was very imformative and I learned so much! I never knew there was so much to know about breastfeeding. You can go here to look at the different classes for mother's to be and mother's that are. I also signed up for a Lamaze class so I will let ya'll know how I like that. I start next week. Also for a good read up on the many benefits(101 of them to be exact) of breastfeeding your baby you can go here!
I have also been shopping around for safe bottles and pacifiers i.e. BPA free (go here to learn about the rotten no good BPA) and I found some winners. Glass bottles and Goldi Pacifiers (click either to see more). The pacifiers are awesome = Non-toxic, no artificial coloring. No chemical softeners, parabens, PVC, or phthalates; BPA (bisphenol-A) free ! Winner! winner! chicken dinner! And my favorite part they are totally affordable and reasonable!
I found a website and a new blog that I like quite a bit! and it is where I found the glass bottles and pacifier! Check it...http://naturemoms.com/ or the blog http://www.naturemoms.com/blog/!

The itch!
Since 8Th grade I have been changing the color of my hair like I change my socks. I have been every color imaginable and I'm sure I invented some never before seen colors in the process. About a year and a half ago I decided I was going natural...no more dye, no more monthly visits to the salon...NO MORE! And so I did....after 2 visits to the salon...the first a grueling 6 hour experience and the 2ND a 3 hour...I was au naturale!
I have been loving it...Just a monthly/bi-monthly snip snip and I'm good to go!
But lately it has happened...the itch I have been resisting for so long is starting to be too itchy to ignore! I WANT SOME CHANGE.....I WANT SOME FUN NEW COLOR....I WANT TO DYE MY HAIR!
Weekly now I ask Dan, "do you think i should dye my hair?" and no matter his reply I have been able to talk myself out of it after I run my fingers through my oh so healthy hair that has been dye free for 1 1/2 years now!
Maybe its the weather that has got me feeling drab and aching for a change. (no sunshine makes me do crazy things) Either way I'm just about to make that call to my salon! but ahhhhhhhhhh I maybe shouldn't because my hair is growing out so nicely, and its so much less maintenance, and care free and healthy and CHEAPER!
HELP!
What shall i do???
See below for a timeline of my hair in pictures( i left some of the more um not so desirable hair color's i had out)....some of these pictures are extremely old school...some are the only ones I could find on my computer.
These last two are of my how my hair is now...the natural color...it gets lighter in the summer!
And this is what color I am thinking I want to go too....it wouldnt' be that HUGE of a change being that I am already a redhead.... maybe just a little bit more vibrant.
So I would love to hear what ya'll think? Should I stay? should I go Ashlee's color? or any other color suggestions that you think would be cute?

Holidays in Review!
so I know we are five days into the New Year already but I am going to do my Christmas/New years post now if that's alright with ya'll. To those that know me that's just my style late or not at all so here it is.
Dan and I's first Christmas was a dream come true. I loved all the snow which really made Christmas this year. We made a couple of things to mark our first Christmas together as well as to start some traditions. we made stalkings including one for Zealand. It is the tiniest cutest thing you ever did see. And we also painted ornaments which turned out quite amazing thanks to my artist husband.
A couple of hightlights this Christams/New year holiday was of course having our first Christmas, having the snow, I scored five new pairs of shoes including a new pair of sweeeeeeet rock climbing shoes that I will have to wait 3+ months to break in, (Dan spoiled me), Zealand also scored some Christmas gifts and he is not even here yet what a lucky kid, and I won a GINORMOUS foot tall christmas tree this year from my work all decorated and such (not the one pictured on this post).
It was a great holiday and most of all it was great being off work and school to spend time with one another and our families!
