Wonderful Week!

29 weeks down, only 11 more to go! I can't believe how fast time is flying! This week has been just what I needed! Its been absolutely gorgeous outside and let's be honest, sunshine will make anyone feel happy!

I was able to go out with the girls last saturday for a much needed lunch date and shopping. It was the best day ever! Great friends, great laughs, great news... it was wonderful!

Tonight Amy and I are throwing our very first baby shower for our friend Lindsey at my place. It'll be really fun to get all the girls together and celebrate Lindsey's little boy! Its crazy how many babies are on their way!

We finally got to go to our new doctor yesterday, I am SO thankful we decided to switch doctors. She is absolutely amazing! She let me know that I am in control and that I will be able to make all final decisions regarding how I want my labor and delivery to go. It is so nice to know that I have the support from my doctor. I trust that she isn't going to do anything without consulting me first and giving me options. I finally got to ask any and all questions I had and it was seriously a huge relief. I am actually excited now and not terrified like I was. She fully supports me in wanting a pain-free delivery.

I love having control over things, I'm a little bit of a control freak.

Saturday we are finally making a trip down to the temple. I took for granted living only 10 min away from the one in Logan. It is hard to make regular trips when it is about 2 hours away.  Lance and I haven't been to the temple since October when we were visiting Palmyra. We really need to go more.

I got a new calling at church a few weeks ago and am absolutely thrilled. I got called to serve as the  First Counselor of the Relief Society. I am so excited to take on this new role and to get to know the ladies in the branch better. I know its going to be a lot of work especially with the language barrier but it'll be worth it!  I'm still going to be the Primary Chorister as well. Singing time will just be the very first thing after sacrament so I have time to get up for Relief Society. It is so fun to teach the kids new songs. They haven't ever had a chorister in the branch so we are learning very basic songs that almost all primary kids know. They absolutely love it. It has been a learning experience for me as well, since most of their parents only speak Spanish to them at home we have been learning some songs in English and some in Spanish. It has been a challenge for me but so fun learning some of my favorite songs in Spanish. This week we are singing in sacrament and I'm nervous but excited!

Sunday will be finished off with a BBQ at our place and will hopefully be the icing on the cake of a great week!

I love Springtime.

P.S Final two names have been chosen, I'll post the updated bracket soon!
