Brother & Baby

In 4 hours, 34 minutes, and 27ish seconds I see him:


Elder Scotty Michael Elders will be returning home from the Georgia Macon mission Honorably and I'm so excited to see him.

On a different subject. I'm getting bigger & I feel my baby boy move all the time. I'm a very picky/particular pregnant person and I only like things said a certain way and done a certain way.

I don't like profile pictures.
I don't like people/strangers randomly touching my stomach (its mine, not yours). At least ask me if you can.
I don't like being called big.
I don't like really being called anything.
I don't like the belly pictures... at all.
I don't like referring to my baby as "in the oven" or "cooking away", he's a human not a pop tart.
I don't like being told that i'm growing in other places... ahem...as if I didn't know... thanks for the update though.
I don't even like, "Ah... you're starting to pop... cute..." What am I suppose to say to that. Thanks? I've been trying to pop for quite some time now....? No.

These are just a few things that I don't like. I could name a million more.

However, I have come to realize that people have an IMPOSSIBLE task of trying to please a pregnant person. Some want to be called huge, some want to be told they are ready to pot, some want everyone to touch their stomach, and some want to slap whoever comes near them. Some take a profile picture of themselves everyday... some don't. So alas, even though i'm a picky-particular-pregnant-person... I also understand that you really can't win and your just trying to be nice. So... thanks for all your comments! :)

Mostly.... I just LOVE being pregnant!!!!!! I LOVE feeling him kick and I LOVE that i'm going to be a mom so so so soon!!!!!

Its a good day

Oh goodness, Becca. I think I will be EXACTLY like you when I am pregnant (in fifteen years).

The one I've never understood is stomach-touching. Why do people think that just because you're pregnant they can touch your stomach? Not okay. I swear, someone will get punched in the face.

I can totally relate. I just tell myself that people just don't know what to say most of the time. Stomach touching i don't get and cannot stand it either. Hope you are having fun with Scotty now that he is back.

Had to laugh at your list of thing you do not like during pregnancy. With my second pregnancy I stopped going to church the entire last month because I didn't want to hear, "you haven't had that baby yet!" Excited for you guys! Hope you are having a shower down here in Arizona.
