What I did today...

The county I live in was giving out 10,000 free swine flu vaccinations today at a single location. They were only giving them out to pregnant women and children ages 6 months - 3 years. So, in showing my love and devotion to my unborn child, I stood in line for THREE HOURS, outside, in the rain. It was quite a site. Pregnant women and mothers with young children lined up along the curb. This isn't a pic of the actual event, but you get the idea.

Oh, and of course, Justin was at home watching ESPN Game Day (highlighting BYU)! I made him rub my feet when I got home! :)

Baby Cake & Pumpkin Carving

On Friday, Justin and I drove up to Baltimore to visit some friends. Amy was my college roommate and I haven't seen her in about 4 years! It was great to see her again.
We spent the evening eating homemade pizza and carving pumpkins!
Amy has a family tradition that I call "The Baby Cake." Amy made this cake; half of it is pink and half of it is blue.

Justin spun the cake and I cut a piece.


BLUE!! :) The cake has been pretty accurate in Amy's family, so we'll see if it turns out true for me.


If you look closely, the piece I cut was completely blue, but it was right next to the pink portion. Hm... what does that mean? :)
My ultrasound is October 30th!! We can't wait to know for sure what we will be having!

Gettysburg

Justin had Columbus Day off work, so we took a trip to Gettysburg, PA. We followed a map and drove around to all the historic sites. The map took us chronologically through the three day battle. It was a great trip.
I loved the beautiful fall trees!
