Les Miserables

I finally did it. I read the entire book and I'm in love with Victor Hugo. Well not literally. I don't even know what he looks like, but the book is brilliant. I don't know why I was never able to finish it before because I could barely put it down the last month. It's a long book and it felt good to actually read a book for so long. My favorite parts about the book was getting to know the characters--the good and the bad. You were more exposed to them and sometimes they drove me nuts with being so silly!! And other times I adored them. How Victor sets up a scene is pretty impressive how clearly he can see it in his mind. So that's that.

I also recently started reading a book called The Anatomy of Peace. It's about being at peace in your heart all the time. I love it. I'm close to being finished already and hope it helps change my life. That's what I'm hoping for anyway.

I'm also pretty pregnant. I'm really starting to feel it now. I have to sit up straight to keep my breathing normal and I'm starting to not like bending over so much. And suddenly I'm hot a lot of the time. I don't know when my internal hotness got turned on, but the switch has flipped! Thank goodness fall is just around the corner though I love and hate fall. I love the leaves, but I hate that it means that summer is ending and that winter is surely coming!

I haven't been blogging a lot because i've been nesting already. I might be going a little crazy with wanting to organize everything and be all on top of things. I wonder if I'll ever get on top or if I'll constantly be scrambling. So I've been trying to scrapbook all of our cali trip and get caught up with Isaak's stuff, so I can start on all the girl stuff that is going to be coming at me soon. Wow. Two kids. I might freak out some days. I see how we have adjusted to having Isaak and how we seem to have a system and it's all about to change. Yikes. How will it work I ask myself and then I remember--oh yeah--one day at a time!!!! Just a few of the pages that I've been working on. Isaak had a cupcake for lunch, which he thought was pretty awesome. Vacation and cupcakes. I loved it too!

I love those scrap book pages that you do. How do you do them? What program do you use?
I think you'll do great with two kids. For some reason I'm thinking that adding another is not as life changing as the first one is. Hopefully. :)

Sadie, I was just catching up on your blog...congrats on the baby girl! I'm so excited for you! And I'm sure you will do a fantastic job handling 2 kids - just think of how many teenage hooligans you used to control at one time! :) Still...I wish you the best of luck! P.S. - are you using Hypnobabies again?

the pics

Okay-so I'm feeling a little more confident today. I went to church and people saw me and nobody screamed. haha! I actually think that I like it-second day is usually always better, eh? It reminds me of a time on my mission when the same kind of thing happened. I said just un petit peu! (a little bit), but I came out with a whole new head of hair and I cried--you have to know that when you are on a mission everything seems worse than it really is and better than it really is-highs and lows=not so many inbetweens. So enough of this blabbing--I'm posting some pictures. So this is what I imagined I might have looked like yesterday when I looked in the mirror--thinking what have I done!!!! Me today thinking--hey I think I like it. I can actually smile about it today. Isaak in the cutest hat ever-sorry the lighting is kind of bad, but it was cloudy and darker than usual, but isn't he just the cutest ever? I love him in this outfit. I would have him wear it every day so I could l...

My Lovely Baby Bump

My Mom was nice enough to come down and take some awesome pictures of me and my lovely baby bump along with my two favorite guys ever. I love how they turned out! I think I'm about 34 weeks in the pics, but I haven't gotten more than a few centimeters larger--as of yet! I will post a few and then I might post some more as I get them more arranged, but I love them!!!! I know my bump isn't in all of them, but Isaak wasn't the most cooperative guy ever that night. He wanted to run around and play, but alas my Mom worked some magic and caught some great pics of him. so there you have them!
