The lost pictures...

I was uploading pictures onto my new computer from my Nikon and found some random gems! I love finding pictures that you totally forgot about!

 

This one is one that Hy took when I was about 7 weeks pregnant. All I could do was: sleep, go to work, nap, and barf my brains out. I was SOO sick! I could barely drive to work, even being in the car made me have to barf. Watching t.v. even got really bad! The flashing images and bright colors got to me!

 

 

Side note: I don't think I will ever look at wheat thins or brown rice the same. Un-barfable my butt.

 

 

 

This picture is from the Peach Days Parade 2012. There are a couple of things going on! My nephew was giving attitude to the kids who weren't following the rules about staying out of the street ( such a good boy!) as you can see by his face!

 

The next thing I want to point out is the almost finished tray of nachos in the bottom corner. I was 10 weeks pregnant and had been okay with the nausea for the last few days. I ate breakfast, we got ready, and went to the parade. Well right as the sirens started, I felt like barfing my brains out. I needed food stat! All of the booths were closed, but my dad (the saint that he is) got the nacho stand to open and make me a huge plate of jalapeno and cheese nachos. I plowed through them and they were seriously the best nachos of my entire life. Also: it was 9 am.

 

These are my husband's feet, wearing his Christmas socks that I gave him in McCall Idaho! He wore them all day to make me happy. And I don't think I have seen them since.

 

The beautiful ladies that I used to work with at The Dessert Tray in Beaverton threw me a baby shower! They took such great care of me and Robin made this cake just for me! I never thought I would go to a baby shower that didn't make me feel a little empty inside, but this time there wasn't any room to feel empty! There was already a big old baby inside!

 

It was yellow cake with pastry cream and fresh berries inside. I ate it for about 5 days straight before I made Hyrum get rid of it! 

 

This is the group shot of all of my favorite co-workers/ friends! And yes there is a man in there! Hy came and took lots of pictures! I was 36 weeks pregnant and it was also my last day of work!

 

 

This is one of the very first pictures of Hy holding our baby for the first time. She started crying after she left my arms and then he started talking to her and she just stopped. It's like she instantly recognized his voice and calmed down. It was pretty beautiful.

 

This is the very first picture of me holding baby Emilia. My legs are still in the stir ups and I had just barely given birth! They plopped her on my chest, covered her with a towel, and put a little hat on her head. It was the most life altering moment of my universe. She was gorgeous from the get, no weirdly squished head and swollen features. Just big lips and a perfect face! I am totally biased.

 



 

 

 This one of the pictures that you could try to pose, but it just wouldn't ever be as special. My mom and grandma Zola talking to Em. No one has their hair done or make up. My mom is wearing her tie dyed Mumu. But look how happy everyone looks! Even the baby was chatting it up! 

 



 

This picture makes me laugh because my mom was high lighting my hair and mid process the baby got fussy. So my mom strapped Em on, covered her with a blanket, and danced her to sleep; all while dying my hair! It was just one of those things!

 

 

 

 

There are so many more, but I think that's all for now. I better get to bed before the baby decides it's time to be awake! Goodnight!
