Wonderful Weekend and New Belly Picture

David and I had a fun weekend this weekend. It is starting to register that our time is getting shorter and shorter before Tucker comes and everything we do revolves around him. :) Honestly, we can hardly wait for that time, but want to take advantage of the time we have now.
Friday night David and I rented a movie that we surprisingly liked..."Be Kind
Rewind". If you haven't heard of it its probably because if anyone paid money to see it in the theater they were insane, but it is surprisingly. The main characters are Jack Black, Mos Def, and Danny Glover. It is definitely worth renting from the Red Box. We also had our treats to go with our movie, David had fudgcicles and I had mint-n-chip ice cream. Yum! Yum! Yum! We enjoyed our evening together.
Saturday was another enjoyable day. David and his Dad had bought tickets for 3 OSU games. Yesterday was one of the games, against Washington State, and David's Dad
flew out to North Carolina with his Mom so I took the extra ticket. I thought I would be able to handle it all. I was somewhat sorely mistaken. We wound up parking at the Institute building and walking down to Reser Stadium. If you ask me it's a mile walk, but I don't really know how far it is. It felt a lot longer than it used to though. The walk actually wasn't so bad, it was once we got into the stadium. We were in row 72! That's right, I had to hike the stadium up to row 72. It was AWESOME! Oh wait... it wouldn't have been so bad if there was a hand rail, but the only thing I had to hold on to was David. Then we get to our seats, and the man sitting on the end of our bench was on hte large side. I think he should have had 2 tickets for himself, so we were REALLY squished! But, it was fine because it was kind of cool out and we were in the shade. I loved being able to spend that time with David. We enjoyed each other's company as well as the fans around us. OSU won the game, it was pretty much a slaughter. The final score was 66-13. Pretty fun! I was glad I went, even though I was rather uncomfortable, I really enjoy the OSU football games. It was definitely a different experience not sitting in the student section. Much more enjoyable without all of the stupid drunk college students falling all over themselves. While we were in Corvallis we saw our friends Kim and Chris. Kim just found out she was pregnant so it was fun to sit and talk with them about that, and catch up on everything else. :)
Today, Sunday, we spoke in Sacrament. Our topic was to pick a General Conference talk that we really enjoyed. I chose Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin's talk "Come What May, And Love It". I absolutely loved his talk, and I enjoyed sharing my thoughts about it. David chose President Monson's talk from Sunday Morning, about changes, and Elder Richard G. Scott's talk from Priesthood Session. David did such a good job on his talk. My exhaustion, babyness, and topic got the best of me and I sure did cry. It was so embarrassing, but I think the congregation heard
most of it. :) Tucker was moving and kicking a whole lot while I was up there speaking so I kept touching my stomach and rubbing it. The Bishop came up to me afterwards and said that he was so worried that I was going to go into labor when he saw me rubbing my stomach. It was ironic that he said that because David told me that I should grab my side half way through my talk and then just say it was a cramp. :) Unfortunately at the beginning of Relief Society I got really light headed and faint. My friend Brittany was so nice and helpful, she went and got David for me. By the time David got there I was about to pass out and my shirt was wet with sweat. It was embarrassing, but I couldn't help it. Brittany was so awesome and brought us dinner tonight. She is such a good friend. :)
And now for the belly pictures! :) Yay! David took these pictures this evening so keep in mind that I haven't felt great. Today I am 34 weeks and 1 day pregnant. My next Dr.'s appointment is on the 21st, apparently I have to get another awesome pregnancy test done. NEAT! Oh well, the first picture is a close up of my tummy.

This second picture is a little further out. David thought it would be more effective if I had a tighter shirt on. It made my belly more defined I guess. :) In my opinion... I am LARGE and in CHARGE!

Sounds like you had an exciting weekend! I am impressed that you braved so many big things this weekend! Too bad speaking in church didn't send you into labor...it really has made for a memorable moment for our ward family!!
