Accepted... baby news...and a new addition!!!!

We found out last week that through Benson hurrying and pulling things together (THE NIGHT BEFORE it was due) for his BYU application that he was ACCEPTED!!! So in the fall he will start attending BYU. I am so excited and so very proud of him. He wants to move on to bigger and better things for himself and our family. These dead end $9-$10 an hour jobs just aren't going to support a growing family and he really wants us as a family to be comfortable. I couldn't be more happy for him and his mature decision. He's also may want to try and walk on for football, or play club rugby. That decision is still in the making. What ever he decides to do I support him 100% because I know that many blessing will come from his hard work and dedication.

As for us we went for babies 28 week appointment. His heartbeat was a strong and steady 150 bpm. The doc also said that he is pretty big for 28 weeks and he'll be well over 8 or 9 lbs when he arrives!!! Oh dear...and to think he's only half Samoan. With the doctor saying that it only made Bense very very happy. He keeps telling me to eat because our baby is going to be "skinny" I tell him " By me eating  a lot only effects my hips and butt!!! not babies weight!!!" Oh well I'll let him think what he likes :) Also with being an -A ("A" negative) blood type I have to have blood test done. I guess I have a rare blood type that if it comes in contact with a positive blood type I create an antibody against positive blood types meaning my body can attack babies blood "if" I happen to have created the antibody...confusing I know. So blood test was done today and I'm hoping I haven't created this antibody and I will be given a shot so I won't create that antibody against baby. AHHHHH just more stress to our first pregnancy...and this will have to be done with every pregnancy I have...


Earlier this week we welcomed a beautiful new addition into Benson's family!!! Lola and Nathan had a sweet little girl. She is so perfect and beautiful and she makes Benson get all giddy and excited for Kymani to be here. So congratulations to Lola and Nathan on such a beautiful little girl. We love her sweet spirit so much already.

Can you tell how excited he is :)

Had to steal this from her mama's fb page. I love this picture very much.
