Wicked!

February 25...I finally get my Christmas present--tickets to Wicked! I've wanted to see this for over 2 years now. So, we went and saw it today at the Orpheum Theater in San Francisco. We both loved it.

We had something kind of funny happen during the play. Derrick and I were holding hands in my lap so that part of Derrick's arm was touching my belly. Caleb totally kicked Derrick's arm during one of the good songs and Derrick looked at me and I confirmed it was a kick. Derrick replied that Caleb was enjoying the music.


Here's me super excited to go see the play!

Valentines Day

Derrick and I had a nice Valentines Day. After lunch I opened one present from Derrick--chocolates (which I asked for). Unfortunately, Derrick's present didn't come in the mail yet so I had to show him it electronically. It's a Get Fuzzy comic book. He just finished his Calvin and Hobbs book and he was ready for another one. Derrick always reads a few comic cartoons right before he falls asleep. He always goes to bed happy that way :)

Right before we went out to dinner that night I opened another present from Derrick. A chick flick movie, Sense and Sensibility. Perfect for Valentines Day.
That night for dinner we went out to PF Changs since we had a gift certificate there from Christmas. It was yuuuuummy! We even bought a piece of their 6 layer chocolate cake to bring home for later. We just had some today and it was fabulous!

We both got dressed up. I cut Derrick's hair that morning and he wore my favorite sweater. Which we call "the money shirt." I curled my hair, wore pink and white and even put on special earrings (something I don't do enough). That night for family prayer Derrick said that we were grateful for a day to celebrate our relationship. It really was. I did think about how much I love the boy and why. What a great day!

Stanford Basketball


Derrick and I went to Stanford men's basketball game vs. Washington State on Thrusday. While there, it was the first time I ever saw the mascot. It is hideous! A Christmas tree with a face. The real mascot is cardinal (the color) but it seems like the tree is the one that represents. I thought Derrick's high school mascot was bad...beet diggers (he claims he likes it). Boy am I grateful BYU is cougars. Cosmo never seemed so cool to me before.

While at the game, Derrick leaned over to me and said, "Remember the last time we were at a college basketball game?" I did. It was 2 years ago on Valentines Day. It was a BYU game. Right after that game is when we decided to start dating. I responded to Derrick, "Yep, and look where were are now." Then I patted my belly. Since that BYU basketball game my life has never been better.

Is this guy kidding?

Derrick and I were laughing so hard at this we were literally crying. There's a project due on Thursday in the class Derrick TAs and some kid seriously emailed this to the staff:

4 hot Australian chicks are visiting Stanford tomorrow to see both me and one of my partners.

We are requesting an extra 24 hours of padding (for the project to be due Friday at midnight instead of Thurs) because if we were given late days in this class we would opt to exercise one of them for this.

Tomorrow we would like to spend our evening with them at EBF instead of with each other at our normal Wednesday night hangout spot in the basement of Gates.

Again, that's 4 HOT Australian chicks.

Thank you,

Kyle


The professor of the class replied:

Umm... I think that's more information than we needed to know, but okay, you can have until Friday night if need be.

Doctor Appointment

I really enjoyed my 30 week appointment today with the doctor. Mostly because I didn't gain any weight since last time...which is a good thing because at my last appointment I had gained 8 pounds in a month! Christmas was too good to me :)

When the nurse took me into the room she said to me, "You seem really happy. There are a lot of pregnant women who are miserable." It sounded like she had quite a few cases of them. The doctor made a similar comment about me being really happy. I am!

I actually saw a different doctor than I normally do and I liked her a bit better than my other one so I'm thinking I'm going to switch. I came with a list of questions (I had never done that before) and she answered them really well and wrote down on sticky notes things that I wanted to know.

As always, it was good to hear a nice healthy heart and hear that things are looking good.
