Update

Sorry our page has been so boring lately, but I did fall out of the blogging world for a while there. Thanks to my "Google Reader" account, I had over 40 posts to read! (btw…I highly recommend Google Reader to anyone!) We haven't had really anything exciting happen....So all I can do at this point is just give a small update on small things that have been going on.

■I finally went to the dentist...it has been TEN YEARS!! Yeah, I know...! The dentist said my mouth looked exceptionally well for not seeing anyone for that long. I obviously had cavities that needed to be filled. They ended up having to numb almost my entire mouth. I have never had any needles come near my mouth, so I was a little nervous! The Dr. wanted to try and drill one of the cavities without giving anesthesia and she said, "Let me know when it starts hurting." I almost flipped out, but I couldn't talk 'cause I had 5 billion dental instruments in my mouth. I HATE the dentists'!!! Anyway, I had the worst lisp afterwards and I was too embarrassed to go anywhere to order a shake; (I can't go 4 hours and not eat!!!) So I made my own at home!! I’m glad that whole mess is over with!
■I am getting bigger and bigger everyday! Even my maternity clothes are fitting snug! I'll admit I have even started to browse through Eli's closet. Oh, and for the ultrasound I just had, the gender still remains a surprise...yeah! The tech was very careful not to suggest anything! I was also told that the baby's weight is a little above average...which is good, but not all that fun when delivering time comes around!
■I also wanted to ask everyone for some suggestions! Eli and I haven't really had anytime to discuss baby names...I am getting worried because we have a little over two months left and we need to have girl and boy names ready! I always like to be prepared, and I know it would stress me out if we went to the hospital and had no names in mind! So if you would like, we would love and appreciate some name suggestions...boy and/or girl (we are looking more for the non-traditional names--something different, but not too crazy)! Thanks to all!

cori, I went to the dentist monday as well and I think its safe to say it is the most miserable place you can be. You're so vulnerable laying there with your mouth open. I hate when you can smell all the tools and their gloves and the drills and stuff. UGH! I feel your pain. My appointment was at 1:00 on Monday and I was numb until 9:00 that night. so bummed out.

I love Google Reader too! The only thing I dont like is that I don't get to see everyones cute blog designs. I think Brody is a really cute boy name, I also like simple names like Jason and Seth oh and I really like Boston. For girls I think Olivia is really pretty, and Isabelle, and Kinley... anyway that's a few. If I think of more I'll let you know.

Glad to know you're recovering from the dentist...i HATE the dentist. Everytime we go I have @ least 1 cavity and Ryan never has any! Sounds like the pregnancy is progressing just right! We're all excited to see what you have. I think you may need to post while @ the hospital :) I love baby names. I'm going to think about it and give you a list :) do you want something different, trendy, traditional? i love indianna btw!

I hate, hate, hate the dentist!! I agree with Tiffany when she says it is the most miserable place to be! I had a crown put on about a month ago and I've never been in so much pain as I was when they stuck 4 needles in different areas in my mouth(including my tongue!!). OUCH!!! Did I tell you how much I hate the Dentist??!!:) I am really excited to find out what you're having!! I will try to think of some cute names for you. Do you have a baby name book? One name I like that a girl I work with just named her daughter is Piper (like pipe with an er). I think it's a cute name. Good luck with the name ideas!

I feel your pain Cori!!! I posted about my horrible dental experience a while ago and it still makes me gringe to think about! I can't believe you guys haven't caved and found out what you're having. There is no way I could wait that long to find out! Sorry I don't have ideas for baby names, Cole doesn't allow that kind of talk :) But if you dont want anything too trendy, www.ssa.gov/OACT/babynames is kind of cool, it has records of the top1000 baby names for each year so you can find out how popular or uncommon a name is...

I can't believe you haven't been to the dentist in 10 years. That seems so unlike you!! Maybe I should start spacing out my appointments 10 years apart and see what happens. Now I go regularly and always have some major thing wrong with my teeth.

Just like everyone else that commented, I hate the dentist. I have not been for at least 5 years probably even longer. Can you believe you are supposed to go twice a year ha and we have not even been once in 5-10 years. It is the worst place I can think of really.

As for names for the baby......I really like the name Grey for a little boy and wanted to name a boy that until I married Dallin......Grey Redd??? Two colors might be too much. For a little girl I'm with Alicia I like the name Kinley

Sarah Greener said...

Oh come on the dentist isn't so bad!:) haha jk. I am sorry that really isn't very fun. I hate to be poked and proded in the mouth too! I am glad everything is good with the baby! I am very excited for you and very excited to know what it will be! I like the name that Brittany suggessted for a girl, Piper. That is way cute!!! If I think of any cute ones I will let you know.
