TaNelle tagged me so here it is...
1. What is your favorite color? Well That's a hard question. I don't have just one. I love sky blue, cranberry red, lime green and hot pink. I just love color!
2. What is your favorite song? A song that will always hold special meaning to me is Shania Twain's You're Still the One but one of my current favorite songs is Taylor Swift's Best Day, that song makes me cry.
3. What did you do this month, that was your favorite? Well today my sister-in-law and her kids are coming to visit and I'm super excited about that and next week my parents are coming to visit. I know those haven't happened yet but I'm so excited. Other than that it would have to be going on walks with my friends and just chatting.
4. What is your favorite Candy? I've always loved Snickers but recently I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Peanut Butter Twix.
5. What is something that you really want to learn to do? Fix the tention on my sewing machine and learn to sew everything! Haha.
6. What is your favorite flower? Hmmm. Is orange/pinkish roses lame?
7. If you could go anywhere in the world, Where would you go? Sean and I really want to go to New England and visit all the historical sites. Someday I want to make it to Hawaii. And of course Europe is a dream of mine and then there is going back to South America.
I am going to tag: Val, Chelsi, Aubrey, Britney and Ailinh

My First Born
These sort of list things are all the rage on Facebook lately. I decided to do this one just on my blog...
1. WAS YOUR FIRST PREGNANCY PLANNED?
Well we went off birth control because I felt that was the right thing to do. We just didn't expect to get pregnant so fast.
2. WERE YOU MARRIED AT THE TIME?
Yes, for just over 6 months.
3. WHAT WERE YOUR REACTIONS?
I had a feeling I was pregnant but I was still soooo excited. And Sean was too! I started planning everything.
4. WAS ABORTION AN OPTION FOR YOU?
The thought never crossed my mind.
5. HOW OLD WERE YOU?
I was 21 when I got pregnant and 22 by 3 days when I became a Momma.
6. HOW DID YOU FIND OUT YOU WERE PREGNANT?
I peed on a stick! Haha.
7. WHO DID YOU TELL FIRST?
Andrea. We had to tell someone and we thought we'd wait until Christmas to surprise our parents but of course we didn't. We told them days later.
9. DUE DATE?
July 21, 2008 and then July 20, 2008
10. DID YOU HAVE MORNING SICKNESS?
A little. Mostly I was just tired.
11. WHAT DID YOU CRAVE?
I went through phases- bagels and cream cheese, minestrone soup, scrambled egg, potatoes.
12. WHO/WHAT IRRITATED YOU THE MOST?
Being hot and huge the end of my pregnancy.
13. WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST CHILD'S SEX?
A little girl!
14. DID YOU WISH YOU HAD THE OPPOSITE SEX OF WHAT YOU WERE GETTING?
No. Sean and I both wanted/ knew we were having a girl from the begining. To be honest we would have been disappointed with a boy, just at first though.
15. HOW MANY POUNDS DID YOU GAIN THROUGHOUT THE PREGNANCY?
42 lbs! Can you believe it? The last week though I gain like 5-7 lbs, it was July and so hot, so it was a lot of water weight.
16. DID YOU HAVE A BABY SHOWER?
Yes, 2 small ones and one really big one after Lexi was born.
17. WAS IT A SURPRISE OR DID YOU KNOW?
I am confused by the question... oh! The shower. One of the small ones was a surprise.
18. DID YOU HAVE ANY COMPLICATIONS DURING YOUR PREGNANCY?
Only minor things really- Lexi was in the wrong postion for a while, we couldn't find her heart beat at one appointment because she was hiding so far back, she was pressing against my nerve the last month so I kept going numb on my right side and I kept measuring early. The biggest complication would be the labor and delivery.
19. WHERE DID YOU GIVE BIRTH?
Madison Memorial Hospital in Rexburg
20. HOW MANY HOURS WERE YOU IN LABOR?
32 hours and the frustrating part is I only dialated to 2 1/2 cm!
21. WHO DROVE YOU TO THE HOSPITAL?
Sean, it was only a 5 minute drive and I wasn't in any pain yet, so it was nice.
22. WHO WATCHED YOU GIVE BIRTH?
Sean and the staff in the O.R.
23. WAS IT NATURAL OR C-SECTION?
C-Section because I couldn't dialate and it was such a long labor and poor little Lexi was getting stressed. It was worth it though. I would do it again if needed.
24. DID YOU TAKE MEDICINE TO EASE THE PAIN?
Of course! It was a C-section. Before that though I didn't get some meds. But before I went under the knife I was soooo drugged up.
27. HOW MUCH DID YOUR CHILD WEIGH?
Surprisingly 6 lbs 2 ozs. I was expecting a "moose baby."
28. WHEN WAS YOUR CHILD ACTUALLY BORN ?
2 weeks before she was due.
30. WHAT DID YOU NAME HIM/HER?
Alexia Leah
31. HOW OLD IS YOUR FIRST BORN TODAY?
Almost 8 months
32. WILL YOU BE HAVING ANOTHER?
Of course. I am not ready yet, plus it isn't safe yet because of the C-section delivery but when the time is right Lexi will be an awesome big sista!
And of course here are a few pictures...
