Full Recovery

Gogo was a very good kitty at the vet. When he got home he was still very groggy from the antithetic, so he stayed in the pet taxi for a while before he realized he was home. When he tried to walk around, he looked like he was drunk because his back end was numb still. It was funny and sad to see him stumble around. When I put him on the bed all he wanted was to cuddle so I let him make himself comfortable and I let him sleep on me for a while. It was too cute because he let his head drop every few minuets and his nose ended up being pushed into my leg. He was just so tired. Gogo has now made a full recovery and is just as active as ever. I just hope being neutered makes it so he won't pee on things anymore.

Gogo's Surgery

This morning Joel and I took Gogo to the vet to get neutered. For the past couple of days he has been acting quite melancholy. Like he knew something was going to happen. Last night I had to take away his food and water so he didn't have anything in his tummy for surgery. I felt really bad this morning when he was meowing at me for food and I couldn't give it to him. Last night we gave him a bath so he would be really clean for the vet. He was really good for his bath. he didn't try too hard to get out of the tub. But he sure was glad when he was all dry. He was really good in the pet taxi on the way to the vet, and he didn't try to get away from the vet when she had him on the table examining him. I hope everything goes well today. It is weird not having him home. I will be excited to see him again, even though he won't be gone for that long.

Seth and Chari's Wedding

My brother-in-law, Seth, got married on Friday to Chari. It was a beautifully long day. It started with pictures at the Draper Temple. It was so bitter cold with the wind that was coming right off the mountain. From there we went to the church and had the reception pictures taken and then we had the Pace family pictures taken because we weren't able to do them on Thursday before the dinner like it had been originally planned because someone wasn't able to make it apparently. Then Joel, myself, Charlene, Steve, Ranna, Sarina, Anna, Seth, and Chari went to Five Guys for lunch. Then after a couple of hours we headed back to the church for the reception. There were so many people at the reception. It was ridiculous. But it I enjoyed myself. They had the classic cake cutting, bouquet toss and garter toss. For the cake cutting, they both shoved cake in each others' faces. It was funny. Chari failed at tossing the bouquet. It didn't go very far behind her. And Seth did fine on tossing the garter. Afterwards there was a bit of dancing, and Joel and I danced for one song. (It is kind of hard to dance for very long when I am so pregnant.) Shortly after dancing, Seth and Chari got ready to leave. They knew their car had been decorated, but what they didn't know was that Seth's friend Kyle had wired the brake lights to the horn. So when Seth got in the car and pushed the brake in, the horn started to go off. Seth promptly got out of the car and demanded that Kyle fix it. Kyle did with little hesitation. It was a really good thing that Seth was a good sport about it, it wouldn't have been so funny otherwise. After they drove off, it was finally time to go home. It was really nice not having to clean up afterwards. I am excited to have Chari as part of our family now.

Busy, Busy, Busy

Yesterday was a very busy day... Ranna and I made 4 batches of potato salad and 4 batches of gluten free cheesecake. We were cooking for 4 hours. I would have been even more horrible if only one of us made everything by ourselves. We also washed and folded about 16 tablecloths. After that I cleaned the bathrooms and vacuumed the floors. Getting ready for this wedding has been super crazy, but it will be worth it. I am so excited that Seth and Chari are getting married. I think they make a cute couple.

Baby Registry

Last night Joel and I went to Babies "R" Us to register for baby things. We went through the store and registered for most of the big things. Joel started to get tired so we went home and I finished registering on-line. Today I went on-line and made a baby registry for Target. It's nice to have the registering out of the way. Now I just have to see if anyone gets me the stuff we put on the registries. If anyone reads this and wants to check out the registries just go to www.target.com or www.babiesrus.com and click on find a registry and type in my name.

Dinner Decorations

So for the past few days Ranna and I have been working on decorations for Seth and Chari's wedding dinner. The work has been tedious, but I think the decorations turned out quite nicely. And it helps that Seth and Chari like the decorations. It would suck if they didn't. The dinner is going to be the night before the wedding and Mary Beth's idea was that we would put pens and pieces of paper on each table so people could write down their advise for Seth and Chari and put it all into a book for them. I think it's an awesome idea. I have a feeling the book is going to be quite large because Seth and Chari invited a ton of people to this dinner, but we'll see how many people show up. The down side is that they forgot to put an RSVP with the dinner invite so we have no head count. This should be interesting...

Glucose Test

On Thursday I had another doctor appointment. For this visit I had to drink a glucose drink and then they took my blood to see if I have diabetes during my pregnancy. Everyone was telling me that the drink is super gross so I was expecting the worst. But the drink wasn't too bad. It just tasted like over sugared Orange Crush. I haven't gotten the results back yet, but I'm sure I am fine. They took three vials of my blood because they need to see what my blood type is and they are going to check and make sure my vitamin D levels are where they need to be. I am hoping my levels are where they need to be because I have been taking a vitamin D pill with my prenatal vitamins everyday since the doctor told me my levels were low. I just hope everything is good when I get the results back. And now that I am in the third trimester I will be seeing the doctor about every two or three weeks. It is hard to believe that I only have three months left...
