on june 4th 2008 around 6 pm i finally got to put my fast driving skills into action! lexi missed the whole show because she was having contractions every 2 minutes! when we got to the hospital they checked her and told us that she was already dilated to a 7! the nurse was surprised because there was a lady just before us that was also a seven and well... we'll just say she wasn't as tough as lexi!

VIVA MEXICO!
the before baby comes and dental school starts cruise to cabo san lucas was bomb! here are a few pics.


NACHOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

there is nothing like coming into your room every night and finding a new cute and cuddly animal made out of towels on your bed, not to mention chocolates. and if you were wondering...yes quinn and i shared that twin bed. we got the bunk bed suite but never pulled down the top bunk. why do i have a feeling that in a few years we are going to look back on this and say "dang we were crazy".
our good friends ange and walt came on the trip with us and we can't even begin to describe how much fun we had. (if brandon and becca are reading this, that last sentence was for you). they had the room right next to ours so we decided we needed a code: 3 pounds for "are you ready to go?" 2 pounds back meant "yeah, give me 5 minutes" and 1 pound meant "ABSOLUTELY NOT!" we really miss that.
after the last entertainment show of the night there is not much to do on the cruise if you don't drink or gamble, so getting our groove on in the dance club became the place to be.



and now for our favorite souvenirs from the cruise (besides all my really cute new earrings of course)... baby's new mexican clothes. the cabo onesie was given to us by the girls we sat with every night for dinner, and the shirt next to it was a great find by quinn. ____ is going to look so cute in it in about a year!

SUPRISE! well, not really
seeing how quinn is so good at suprising me and does it all the time, i decided to throw him a suprise birthday party on saturday. the combination of me being a horrible liar and quinn knowing me far too well lead to disastrous results. apparently quinn knew the whole time what i was doing. i guess it all started when he told me that he was going to work saturday (the day i was going to throw the party) and i paniced. i insisted he take the day off when usually i wouldn't mind. keep in mind this whole time i am thinking that i am so sneaky and sly and getting away with everything. so saturday rolls around and with the party being at 1:00 we went shopping in the morning and when we were supposed to meet our friends at the park to "play tennis" he asks me, "so is there going to be food at this party or do we need to get something to eat first?" lame. maybe one day i'll get him.
here are some pictures of quinn's new grill and the little "suprise" bbq we had at the park with some family and new vegas friends.

boise baby shower
so quinn is the master of all suprises. he always has been and always will be; i don't know how he does it. last weekend i came home from work and saw a huge sign on our front door that said "SUPRISE!" i walked inside and saw my bags packed. quinn had been hiding a secret from me for about two months that my mom and sisters were flying me up to boise for a suprise baby shower. it was the best suprise ever seeing how i haven't seen my family in a while and i won't be able to go to the double wedding in may.
i posted a gazillion pictures of the shower thanks to nancy. i forgot my camera and she showed up with her incredibly nice camera and generously took pictures throughout. love you nancy.
it's tradition in my family to have my mom make the blessing outfit. it is adorable...and good thing its not long-sleeved because we all know that his arms will never fit any shirt as long as he gets his dad's go-go gadget arms.
i think that this was the time that everyone was laughing at me when i got excited about seeing 21 on the tag of a shirt when it really said 2T. my mom said that i've got a long way to go.
you know quinn is going to put this thing on him every day. this kid has no choice but to love the number 21....there is really no way around it.
the best gift was when i opened lyric's present and read a card that explained that she too was going to have a baby. i'm so excited! our kids are going to be the best cousins ever and totally hang out all the time. (i guess we should find out if she's having a girl or boy first before we make them best friends).

my sisters are seriously the coolest!
quinn's grandma is just loving these pee pee tee pees i got as a gift from hollie. if you haven't heard of them...yep, they really are a little tee pee for the little pee pee when changing his diaper. i would much rather use those than my hand. thanks hollie.
i think that karen and cocoa (quinn's mom and sister) had their hands on my belly the entire trip. i loved it, but i think buddy liked it even more because he didn't move around as much that weekend.
thank you mom for such a fun weekend. i love your guts!

oh boy



oh boy, we've been tagged. is all quinn and i want to know is who started this whole tagging business anyways? seeing how i've been tagged from one friend and quinn was tagged from another...we decided that we are definately "it" and should answer the questions. here goes nothing.how long have you and your significant other been together?
quinn and i just celebrated our two year anniversary of our first date on feb. 18. so far each year we have woken up on the morning of the 18th to my sister hilary calling and singing "match maker, match maker" to us and wishing us a happy anniversary... for she is the one that set us up on a blind date. i hope she does it until we're 90 years old. we love you hil.
who eats more?
quinn eats more but i definately eat more often. i swear that kid could go forever without eating. he's like a camel...but with food.
who said i love you first?
quinn did. i am way to stubborn and old fashioned to say it first. the only problem was that he always told himself that he would never say "i love you" to a girl until he proposed. so even though i love the fact that i am the only girl he has ever said "i love you" to, it was torture to wait a year for him to say it.
who sings better?
i love you quinn and your singing....that is all i'm going to say. no, actually i have more to say on that topic. quinn loves to sing...really loud, and even though he may not have the best voice in the world, i still love the fact that he does it. i know too many guys out there that won't even sing hymns at church. you better believe quinn belts it at church and makes some heads turn. oh, and quinn, even though i make fun of you for never knowing the words to songs and making up your own...i love it.
who is smarter?
what a dumb question. but to answer it, quinn is smarter in science and math and money managing, and i am smarter in, well, pop culture. oh, and i am smarter in music....if you can be smart in music. (if you are in the smith family and were at mom's house when we were naming who in the family was smartest at what, you will know that i hate this question. my family couldn't think of anything i was smartest at and finally came up with i was smartest at being social...when hilary on the other hand was smartest all around and loves to remind us. yes hilary, we know...we hear it from dad all the time...you're practically perfect.)
who does the laundry?
i do. although he did suprise me and gave the best gift a girl could ever dream of...cleaning the house and doing the laundry. i walked in the house to all the lights out and candles lit all around the room with a trail of hearts leading to the bedroom where he was. each heart had something he loved about me on it and the table was set with a candle lit dinner. of course i was in heaven, but quinn being the romantic that he is, does it quite often, but it wasn't until i turned the lights on that the real suprise came...he had cleaned the carpets! the house was spotless! and the laundry was done! tears seriously almost came to my eyes.
Few Lexi told me that I could finish the blog where she left off because she didn't have time to finish it. Let me start off by saying if you have read this far I am impressed! I'm not going to lie I only look at the pictures and skim through what is written.
Who does the dishes?
Both of us. It makes it easy when you have a dishwasher.
Who sleeps on the right side of the bed?
Wow this is getting personal! Well... I would have to say that Lexi sleeps on both sides of the bed because I start off on one side and by morning I have moved all the way to the other side. Sorry Lexi.
Who pays the bills?
I do. I can't think of anything funny about paying bills! :)
Who mows the lawn?
No lawn. And when we have a house my plans are to tear out all of the grass and put in concrete AKA one big basketball court :) So once again No lawn!
Who cooks dinner?
Who ever comes home from work first. If we both come home at the same time then we usually both cook or else I cook and Lexi sets up the settlers board :)
Who drives when you are together?
I drive and Lexi navigates because half the time I don't know where I am going oh wait neither does lexi! Can anyone spare a map?!?
Who is more stubborn?
I want to say I am but right now the hot topic is "Should we take Saunce (the white car) to Louisville with us" Whoever wins that one will be dubbed "Most Stubborn"
Who is the first to admit when they're wrong?
What?!?! Neither one of us has ever been wrong.
Whose parents do you see the most?
We see them both the same. Both are in ID. Both have come to see us! We LOVE our parents!
Who kissed who first?
I took after my man "hitch" I went 79 and she went 21 (ok I admit it I changed it up a little)
Who proposed?
That would be me. Went up to some hots springs (our first date, we went to some hot springs) Right at midnight on the 21st of Feb I knelt down and asked my sweetheart to marry me.
Who is more sensitive?
Lexi hands down! She cries over everything! I wonder if it has anything to do with her being pregnant :)
Who has more friends?
My friends are her friends and her friends are mine.
Who has more siblings?
Lexi for sure! However I feel like part of the family already so once again we are tied on this one.
Since I get to wrap this up I choose not to tag anyone. I might come up with another one where you have to answer by posting a picture ;)
