Finally......

I have been waiting for this day to come for so long... My niece, Sophie Norma Sorenson was finally born December 29, 2008. She is the most beautiful baby, I am so in love with her face. She was born at 7:03 PM, weighing in at 6 lbs. 7 ounces, 19 inches long. I only have a couple pictures right now, but trust me... there will be plenty more to come. Congrats Sydney and Griffin... I know you two are going to be the most amazing parents, you need to make sure and have date nights so I can babysit. Thanks for being so patient with me at the hospital when I was a baby hog. Love you both so much, good job on making the most precious baby ever!



Brand New!



One Day Old!

I LOVE HER!

Twilight... The movie!

So.... My Mom, Sydney, Jade, Sierra and I all went to Twilight last night. I wasn't sure what to expect, since the books are so amazing! I was hoping it wouldnt ruin it for me, but I loved it! I want to go again... At first I didnt really care for the "Edward" that they picked... but now, I couldnt be happier with their selection, He is quite dreamy... and yes I am like every other girl in the U.S. I love him! I cant wait for New Moon... So if you havent gone to see Twilight..GO!

Thanks girls for such a fun night, We will have to do that again soon! Love you girls.

I know, right....

It's been such a long time since I have posted something, I am beginning to feel like quite the slacker... It's not as convenient to blog without having an office job... with a lot of down time :)

So for those of you who are reading this, I'm sure in shock over an actual posting... but, I thought I would just catch you up on some of the things that I am doing, and things that I am excited for.

First off staying busy, busy, busy... if you cant find me at Taylor Andrews, be sure to check the Wingers in Fort Union ;) between the two places you are bound to find me. I graduated from Freshman, and am currently a junior at hair school now. Which means I am now on the floor, So if any of you need your hair done, come on in :) I would love to see you!

I am super excited for a lot of things right now.... first and for most, my niece!!!! I cannot wait for that child to get here... Her blanket is in the process of being made. I will have to post pictures when I get it back, might I mention it's pretty much to die for. :)

There is also two of my very good girlfriends that are prego, Shayla and Jessica... I also cant wait to see what their cute children look like...

Fall... I love the fall, just until the snow comes that is... I hate the dang snow, I cant believe it is almost that time again. ugh.

Halloween... I love Halloween, it is one of my favorite holidays if not my favorite... The makeup and costumes, whats not to love about that.... any ideas on what I should be this year? If so, let me know.

Haunted Houses... I will be squeezing some of these in, last year I only made it to one... I was pretty bummed about that. So this year I want to go to at least three if possible.

The U of U football games... I don't know why I love these so much, I hardly ever get to go.. but when I do, I love it!

One of my best friends is coming home from SUU for the weekend, I cant wait to see her... it has been way too long. It is a much needed visit.

I know this was quite the lame post, but hey its better than nothing right? Hopefully I can make time again soon to post some more.

Auntie Knows Best...

Ever since Sydney found out she was pregnant, I have been telling everyone it was a girl... Yesterday she went in for the ultrasound and guess who was right.... ME! It's a baby girl and everyone couldn't be happier. Congratulations Syd and Griff! I cant wait to spoil the crap out of her, she will probably be the prettiest baby ever!

Here are a couple of my favorite pics of the ultrasounds... Syd has all of them up on her blog!

Dont Buy Middle Eastern Oil!!!

I totally stole this right from someone else's blog (that I dont know.. ha ha) but I think that everyone needs to see this!!! If we keep buying oil from the Middle East it is only going to keep raising the price of gas! Take a look at this list, and make sure you only go to the ones that dont support the Middle East! Hopefully it will make a difference!


Companies that DO import Middle Eastern Oil:

Shell---------------------------205,742,000 barrels
Cheveron/Texaco-----------144,332,000 barrels
Exxon/Mobil------------------130,082,000 barrels

ReMeDiEs....

Excuse me for my blogging rant... as you can tell I am very bored at work! As most of you know, that read this blog, my beautiful older sees is prego! She has been having some rough times with morning sickness... so I have done some research, I couldn't tell you if these remedies work.. but its worth a shot! I love you sees... you're amazing keep up the good work! I cant wait for the cute little babe (which I believe is a girl) to come to this earth... You will be the most amazing Mother!

Morning Sickness Remedies

*Eat Small Frequent Meals
Forget about eating just 3 meals a day. Your nausea will get worse as your stomach has no food left to digest. To prevent this, eat at least 6 small meals a day rather than 3 large ones. Your stomach will never be too full or too empty, which will help you feel better.

*Keep Crackers Handy
Stash some crackers on your night table and nibble on them before you get up in the morning. Morning sickness is usually worse in the morning. Eating a few crackers before you get up will give you at least some relief. It is also a good idea to keep a pack of crackers in your purse, your desk and even in the car for those sudden spurs of nausea.

*Ginger
Ginger has long been known to help with any type of upset stomach. Sip on ginger ale, eat a few ginger snap cookies or munch on some candied ginger when you start feeling sick.

*Peppermint Tea
Peppermint is another great home remedy for nausea and safe to consume during pregnancy. Many women find a hot cup of peppermint tea particularly helpful. You could also give peppermint candy and peppermint gum a try for those times when you are out in public and need a discreet morning sickness remedy.

*Take Your Prenatal Vitamin at Night
One of the reasons morning sickness is worse in the morning is because health care professionals suggest taking prenatal vitamins when you first get up. If you are having a hard time with nausea and are getting rid of your vitamin shortly after you take it, try something different. Take your prenatal vitamin at night, right before you go to bed. Eat a small protein-rich snack like crackers and cheese or even a bowl of cereal with the prenatal vitamin. The food will keep you from getting sick quickly. When and if the nausea sets in, you’ll be sound asleep.

*Vitamin B6 - 50 mg. daily. Vitamin B6 has been scientifically shown to help morning sickness. You can find Vitamin B6 at your local drugstore or health food store. Just recently, companies have started to incorporate therapeutic doses of Vitamin B6 into their products to help you cure your morning sickness. One is B-Natal TheraPops are cherry flavored lollipops which have been shown to help cure morning sickness for many women. Another Vitamin B-6 enriched product is called Morning Sickness Magic. Morning Sickness Magic is a herbal remedy containing Ginger, Vitamin B-6, Red Raspberry Leaf and Folic Acid.

*Avoid warm places as heat can increase the nausea feelings.

*Take naps during the day (but not right after eating). Tiredness plays a big part in morning sickness.

*Get enough sleep at night.

*Get out of bed slowly in the morning.

*Eat what you want when you want it. Your cravings will not lead you the wrong way.

*Do not drink fluids with your meals. ( I thought this was interesting)

*Drink small amounts of fluids regularly though out the day to avoid dehydration.

* And if all else fails... I hear TUMS works great for the heartburn :)

Love you sees! I hope you feel better soon!

Sincerely,
Soon to be... the favorite Aunt! :)

RaiN RaiN Go AwAy....

It's June... and still I am wearing a hoody and jeans... What the H is going on???? I am as pale as can be, and haven't been able to start wearing my summer clothes! When is Summer going to come???? I still need to go swimming, boating, camping... and so many other things! Don't get me wrong I love the rain... just not in June! All I want to do is stay in bed and do nothing... its making it very hard for me to get up in the mornings (thank goodness for the flexible hours I have at work)I am so tired I hardly even get ready for work... and I could practically fall asleep on my desk! I hope the good weather comes soon!

This is how I felt coming to work today!

LaSeR sHoW.....

Saturday I went on a date, and we went to the U2 Laser Show at the Clark Planetarium... I would have to say it was amazing! Sunday Bloody Sunday was my favorite song! I would tell anyone that hasn't been to go. It is a fun cheap date, tickets are only like $9.00... plus its fun to play around in there.. They have a lot of neat little toys there! So.. Go and Enjoy!

I've Missed You!

I hadn't gone 80's dancing in so long... and for those of you who know me, know that I love to go! It had been probably six months since the last time I had gone.... So Harminee and I decided to go on Thursday and we had so much fun! It is going to have to become a weekly tradition again! Stay tuned for some pictures!

MeMoriaL DaY~ThanKsgiVing PoiNt

As you all know the weather wasn't too great on Memorial Day... Harminee and I were going to a concert that day and had realized that the concert that we were going to was OUTSIDE at Thanksgiving Point, luckily it wasnt pouring rain when we got there... just chilly! I am not sure that I will ever go to a concert at Thanksgiving point again, We had to wait in line for about 45 minutes, not to mention that we cut in line... so if we hadnt done that we probably would have been in line for 2 hours! It was ridiculous! All in all, it was a great show... Sadly we missed Rogue Wave cause we were waiting in line :( I would have to say Tegan and Sara stole the show, they did an amazing job! Death Cab for Cutie was there also.. they did a pretty good job, but me and Harminee decided to leave early to grab some food(we spent all of our cash on band shirts.. who would have guessed)so we made a little trip to Noodle's & Company for some Mac' and cheese!


Nummy!


Harminee and I infront of the really tall guy, that was originally infront of us. I asked him to let us go ahead due to us not being able to see anything but his back!We also took some really creepy picture, unfortunately I am not able to post those, they are on Harminee's camera and phone!


Trully are amazing live... hopefully they come back to Utah soon!

FrIdaY niGht~GaMe SiX!

Friday night I went out with my girlfriends for our monthly "girls night" it was so much fun as always...we missed Alaina, Abbie, and Stacee! This time we went to Wingers and slightly faked a birthday so we could get free PIE! It was Delicious! I just LOVE my girls!




After dinner we went to Shay's cute new house to watch the Jazz play. After Game 4 I really thought we had a chance at winning the series to the Lakers... boy did I guess wrong. I was so disappointed that we lost by only three points on Friday, we had two chances for a three pointer at the end of the game, but failed to pull through. Where is John Stockton when you need him. If I hadn't been with my girlfriends that night, I am sure I would have been in a bad mood all night after that game... so thankfully I was with them. I still love you D-Will... if it wasn't for you, we probably wouldnt have won any games. Better Luck next season!



Sincerely,
Your biggest Fan!

JuSt AnotHer ManIc ThursDay!

For those of you who know me well, you know that I get very impatient with rude/obnoxious people.

It seems I started my day off all wrong, first off not eating breakfast(it can be really scary when I miss a meal), second coming to work... Blah! let me just tell you, my days are seeming longer and longer. I think I have looked at people.com and usmagazine.com more today then I can count! Lets just say, surfing the web only entertains you for so long. Then to top it off, there is a lady at my work that I just cant stand (not mentioning any names) So I've decided you can only bite your tongue for so long... and I have a feeling that is shortly coming to an end! I finally get to go home at 5:00 pm, after 8 long hours(which has felt like a lifetime, other than the shopping for baby clothes!). This is something I am very much looking forward to. Hopefully I have a less irritable day tomorrow, I am very much looking forward to the WEEKEND!!!!! So now that you have heard my pity story... I hope everyone that reads this has a great Friday, and a Great Weekend!

I cant help it!

So, recently I took a quiz on MSN to see who my soulmate is, and fortunately for me I got Patrick Dempsey. I just wanted to show you how many times fate has brought me into his life. I know Kaesy is thinking oh Barf! But you'll just have to get over it... It's fate!





Meeting him for the first time!


And finally... our wedding day!

$5 Foot Longs!

I was so excited about the $5 dollar Foot Longs, I decided to dedicate my page to it! Let me know what you think about the new page...

P.S. You ROCK Jared, way to keep it off for 10 years!

Take the Quiz

So I found this quiz on Sydney's blog and I was so happy with my results that I just had to post this. I met him in person at my old job... and he is even dreamier in real life. He is a really nice guy suprisingly. So yes the "McDreamy" is my match made in Heaven and I couldnt be happier!!!! Take the quiz and let me know if you love yours as much as I love mine!

How fast are you????

Okay so I found this website that times you while you type, and at the end tells you how many words you spelled wrong. So I am pretty much addicted... while I sit in my boring cube at work this is all I seem to want to do. The highest I have gotten so far is 69 wpm, but it keeps dropping down lower and lower the more frusterated I get... So I am trying to beat 69... Its alot of fun if your bored. Try it out if you want and let me know how you do!

69 words
