You didn't forget about me right?

A long time coming. I understand some people are better at things then others but when it comes to blogging I am failing miserably. Time to catch up. Well let's start with the most important details first. As many of you know...

We have having a baby BOY!

It is really wild we honestly couldn't be more excited. I already feel like he is such a big part of our little family. We truly feel more blessed and he is on his way at the perfect time in our lives. I can't wait to meet this little boy. On the topic of things I'm not very good at pregnancy is high on the list. It is more hard work then I anticipated by a long shot. I have been extremely sick the entire time. Praying that the sickness goes away soon for mine and husbands sake. If anyone has found any tricks for nausea PLEASE feel free to share. There has been a lot of other neat things that has been happening in the Weekes household. They all seem pretty inconsequential since I started with the post with the main act. Here is a list of other worthy mentions of things that have been happening in the last year:

- We moved in June! It's a really amazing home in north Provo. Pictures to come.

- Our callings in the ward are beehive adviser and elders quorum teacher. This has been my favorite calling. These girls are seriously rad.

- I have been working at Nordstrom for almost a year.

- Husbands car business is doing really well we are so thankful.

- London turned three.

-We took some very rock star vacations. Our East Coast trip was the favorite but Sedona, San Diego, Denver, and the always impressive Coeur d'Alene were wonderful and we gained some pretty legit memories.

I feel like I am giving information overload. I should stop. I will break this up and just have to blog more. I hear that blogging is easier when you have a cute little one to talk about all the time. Ill plan on that. Oh and pictures will arrive shortly too!

Husband and I just went on what might go down on records as the best trip in history. We spent a few days in Florida and then went on a cruise to the Caribbean. We came back a little more tan, with a lot of unforgettable memories, and a depleted bank account. For the casual followers this may seem a little overwhelming but please bear with me my family has been demanding details and pictures.

Day one: Location: Miami! Got a cute little rental car and went exploring. Went to south beach, sang to will smiths song Miami, checked out the shops, went to dash no Kardashian in sight, and went to a ne-yo show.

Day two: Location: Florida Keys! We talked to some locals and rented some snorkeling gear and headed to the keys. Sang VERY loudly to the beach boys song kocomo, went to annes beach, found a sunken ship, and had key lime pie.

Day three: Location: sea (passing by Cuba) Boarded the ship Valor, had a fun day at sea, thought about London way too much.

Day four: Location: Grand Cayman! Celebrated my birthday! We went on an excursion to sting ray city, pet, kissed, and fed sting rays, then it took us over to a bay with dolphins. We were assigned to Luna and Nemo as our personal dolphins. I really loved them and really want one of my own. We got to pet, kiss, swim, and play with them. So rad.

Day five: Location: Isla Rotan, Honduras! We found a taxi driver that stayed with us for the day, he took us all over the island, we went to tabyana beach, snorkeled, and played with monkeys. We were let in the monkey cages. They were trouble makers. They stole husbands hat and water bottle, and three baby monkeys the size of baby kittens peed all over me. I don't mind they were so cute. Sadly enough our camera died right before we got there. I guess we will just have to do it again.

Day six: Location: Belize! We went on a cave tubing excursion. We hiked through a jungle and then headed down this river through unbelievable caves on a tube. It was a really neat experience. The stalactites and stalagmites were beautiful, the bats were not.

Day seven: location: Cozumel! We rented a scooter and explored the town. We went to a beach that had a rock climbing wall in the ocean, kayaks, water trampolines, and wind sailing. We spent most of our time there and did a little local shopping. It was beautiful.

Day eight: location: sea: We spent the day at sea loving the entertainment, and eating far beyond our limits.

Day nine: location: Orlando! after a very dramatic experience of getting off the ship and leaving my baby blanket on the ship. Nothing a few rule breaking and tears wont fix we headed to Orlando. We stayed with some good friends Alysse and Chasten. We also got to experience a Florida rainstorm.

Day Ten: Location: Disney World! Alysse works at Disney World so we got to spend the day there. It was our first time! There was so much to do you need more than one day there. We got lucky and there were barely any lines. Thank you Alysse!

Day Eleven: Location: Orem! We spent the morning in Orlando at the pool and eating yummy food. We left that night and flew back home. Home sweet home.

P.S. I apologize for such a long post. I really just didn't want to forget some of the details. Thank you husband for spoiling me!

School Girl

This summer has been unforgettable. You know the saying work hard play hard. Well we only listened to the second half. Like most summers this summer was packed full of fun vacations. We didn't turn down any chance to get out of town. We took a trip to vegas, idaho, california, and we even went to lake powell twice. This summer has been incredible. But something has been missing and I finally figured it out. Its August and a harsh reminder of this was when I walked into Office Max and it smelled like school supplies. Lets put it this way I wish they made Office Max scented candles, laundry detergent, and perfume. It gets me so excited for school. This will be my first August not spending countless hours on rate my professor, fighting for parking, or logging on to blackboard every thirty min. I miss school more than most of my friends in high school. I either need summer to stay or August to be taken off the calendar. Please.

Husband had some major mouth work recently. He got all four of his wisdom teeth pulled, some cavities fixed, and a little dental straightening added to the mix. Doctors orders to take it easy and I have never seen husband listen to directions so well. Sleeping, movies, having smoothies has been the only things on the agenda lately. Oh and a special ~~thanks~~ to Dr. Hathaway for putting small holes in the teeth so he could make a wisdom tooth necklace. He actually made it and has not taken it off since. He looks a little like this guy...

2010-07-28T23:44:00.000-07:00

Dear friends and family I promise I am not too busy to blog. It is pure laziness. I will get on this soonish.

Oh and big news London turned two! Getting so big in a not so big way. Giant thanks to her birth parents sir Chocolate Brown and Justeen. We had a fabulous day. I love this little girl :)

Things worth mentioning

2010-06-02T14:40:00.000-07:00

The last few months have been pretty crazy to say the least. So this blog is designed for an overall update. First off husband and I had our commencement ceremony. Although we finished school in December the ceremony wasn't until April. It went really well we had our army of support come into town which was wonderful.

So being a graduate I decided to get a more grown-up job and landed a job with Toyota conveniently close to my family in San Diego. I quit my job at Tucanos. Packed up had a quick goodbye party and started my new job.
The job went well minus the 70hrs a week that they were tyring to get me to work. Meanwhile husband was still finishing things up back in Orem. So I stayed out there for two months and decided that I really wasn't ready to be that grown up yet. So change of plans I moved back home to orem! This summer has way too many fun plans to be working like that. So as of today the plan is to go planless for a little while and then move back down to San Diego when the timing feels right. So blessed to have such a supportive husband!

love letters

2010-03-24T22:04:00.000-07:00

Husband has some tough competition on the rise. I received this love letter from a handsome young man the other day.

hide your daughters.

just putting it out there.

2010-02-17T20:39:00.001-08:00

I am okay with any holiday that celebrates love. I think its wonderful and I would give up many holidays before I would throw this one away. I'm so thankful for the people I love. And of course the people that love me. The holiday is extra special knowing that two years ago was the day husband proposed. I love that man.

One

2010-02-05T01:56:00.000-08:00

Last week we got invited to go on a trip to LA. We had a really good time. Husbands mom flew out there and we went to a lot of business meetings and got to sit in on some cool business ventures. Husbands sister met up with us and we had a really fun time. We spent a lot of our time in beverly hills. We went to Art Linkletters house. It was amazing to see him. He is 98 but still has some good kick. Except for when he was showing us the backyard and the pants fell to the ankles. (He is the guy who used to be on kids say the darndest things) Oh and he brought the hoola hoop to america which I really thanks him for that. We have some really exciting trips coming up and we coordinated them while we were there. Oh and husband is getting into listening to motivational speakers wayyy to much. I find my not singing along to lady gaga but instead reciting the ten steps to success. I miss the jo bros.

I just got the Droid. I have never been so obsessed with anything like this. Its the new phone from verizon. My poor husband hasn't seen me in about a week. I would recommend it to anyone. I feel so cool about my new upgrade. I really love my phone even if it does remind me of aliens :/

2010-02-05T01:42:00.000-08:00

I have officially worked at Tucanos longer than any server. Not only does this make me feel old but it also makes me feel like the 9042384 people I have seen come and go know something more than I do. Like its a good idea to leave? Someday...

2010-02-05T01:23:00.000-08:00

Christmas was especially wonderful this year. We went to California to visit my family and to get some of the 75 degree weather that we have been aching for. We have a tendency of living like kings and queens on vacation and this trip was no exception. We went to the beach, padre game, knotts berry farm, and golfing. It was one of the first times we didn't have to hurry home for school or homework catch up. Thanks family for the really wonderful Christmas.

Five

2010-02-05T01:06:00.000-08:00

I loved decorating for Christmas. We weren't planning on getting a tree this year because we were going to be out of town so much. We ended seeing charlie (the tree) and fell in love with him. He worked so well in our home. We have made it a tradition every Christmas to get an ornament that reflects one of the biggest accomplishments of the year. It was neat to see them on Charlie. I love the holidays.

Don't you just love the piano?

Dont worry about the messy home.

2010-02-05T00:57:00.000-08:00

Husband and I got a new calling in church. We used to teach the five and six year old and now we moved to the sunbeams aka three and four year old. And our class tripled in kids. We are excited about the change but will miss our old class terribly. Although it did make me feel a little better when one of the girls in my old class told everyone including her new teachers that she liked the Weekes better. We trained her well.

Seven

2010-02-05T00:51:00.000-08:00

We got a baby grand piano. She is stunning. Thanks to my wonderful mom. We gave up our kitchen table (who really uses those anyway). Its a tight fit but I think she is perfect. I started piano lessons again. I love our new addition.

Eight

2010-02-05T00:47:00.000-08:00

We graduated. Although I do catch myself wearing UVU gear more than ever :/

Nine

2010-02-05T00:29:00.000-08:00

Well we did it. Brother and I went to Vegas and did the Rock N Roll marathon. We were hoping to get a little more rock and a little less roll. And it worked! It was an amazing experience. There were about 30 thousand runners. I placed 12,278 which I was happy about. They shut the entire vegas strip down. Besides having to run a mile to get to the starting line torture and the unexpected 32 degree weather torture and realizing at the starting line that my i pod was dead huge torture. I was really happy I did it. I only ran with brother for a little while until we realized I was really slowing him down. But we both finished which was the real goal. And added bonus I learned where all the elevators were on campus because I couldn't walk for days after. My entire family showed up for support which was greatly appreciated.

Top 10- ten

2010-02-04T23:38:00.000-08:00

It's no secret that my blogging has not been up to par. Husband and I have had so much going on lately I thought I would mention the best 10 things that has happened lately. Starting with number 10. Happy birthday husband! Usually husband likes to ski every year for his birthday but with lack of snow I had to be creative. We celebrated by rock climbing, going to a 3-D movie, checking out some reindeer and light show, going out to dinner, and the festival of trees. Everything was a hit. Oh and I don't even mind that when we were rock climbing he only talked about skiing.

devastation

2009-11-22T22:31:00.000-08:00

The wife in me is so disappointed that Oprah is ending her television show. What will I do in 2011 from 12:48-1:48AM. She was my bedtime story.

educated.

2009-11-18T12:22:00.000-08:00

I just got my acceptance letter that I am (in one month) an official college graduate. The last time that I didn't have to go to school I was five so this is a really big deal. Oh yes and husband is graduating too! I hope this last month doesn't kill us. We are suffering terribly from senioritis. Oh and for more scary news I am running in a marathon with brothers in Vegas in two weeks. They are so fast. I'm just hoping I finish. I need prayers.

mission accomplished

2009-10-20T15:25:00.000-07:00

I finally got husband to go to a ballet with me. It only took an ice cream bribery (of course i took it). And just being honest I don't think I am the only one who enjoyed it.

updates

2009-09-23T12:26:00.000-07:00

Well its almost October and this happened in August but lake powell is a worthy mention. Besides almost catching the place on fire (I see why fire works are typically illegal now :/) we had a fantastic time. Oh and I tried slalom skiing for the first time and although I think it is for old people I really did enjoy it.

For another worthy mention I turned twenty-two In September. I feel like I'm getting old really quickly. Husband took me to phoenix and we went to the zoo. I love giraffes. We went to the Melting Pot for dinner. It just so happens to be my favorite restaurant. We haven't been since the night we got engaged. And everything I have ate since then just doesn't taste as good. Thanks husband for the wonderful birthday. Oh yes and it was a delight to see molly in another state. I hope we keep up the same travel plans forever.

coeur d'alene

2009-08-24T22:00:00.000-07:00

Ironically enough mine and husbands parents both have vacation homes in the tip of idaho. We make a trip out there every summer when both of the parentals are in town. We spend most of out time out on the lake. This year we went with my family and did a 25 mile (all down hill) bike ride into montana. The trail was breath taking it led us through tunnels, bridges, and next to waterfalls. We had lights on our bike to get us through mile long black tunnels. The squirrels kept us company and were more than willing to help us finish our snacks.

idaho falls

2009-08-24T21:27:00.001-07:00

Husband and I went to Idaho falls in the beginning of August. We had a wonderful family reunion. I'm behind on blogging and because there is not much to say about Idaho Falls I think I will just keep it at that. Oh yes and we found some delicious peaches on the side of the road. Here we are with husbands mom and mark victor hansen.

caves

2009-07-29T19:47:00.000-07:00

The other day we hiked to the mt. timp caves. It was incredible and totally worth it. We went with Husbands family. It is a gorgeous hike that leads into these unbelievable caves. The caves are about 45 degrees. We love having family near by. Doubling your family when you get married or in my case tripling is sweet. We all went canoeing down the provo river the next day. All was good until we tipped over. I was a wreck when the water is near freezing my sandals are floating down the river. Thank goodness for husbands.

Happy Birthday

2009-07-28T13:48:00.000-07:00

London turned one today. We couldn't be more proud. We celebrated by going to the park, swimming with the ducks, picking out her favorite treat at petco, and then I got her a card that I let her shred to pieces, and she might have a play date tonight with Winston. She knows 17 commands and phrases. When we got her she was half a pound and now weighs a whopping three pounds. We love our little girl. (I just try not to think about the four thousand dollars she has cost this year ugh) Thank you sir chocolate brown and justeen for giving us our fabulous doghter.

love and babies

2009-07-23T23:39:00.000-07:00

I typically put up upcoming events on my fridge. It helps me not forget as easy. I went to the mail box this week and felt overwhelmed. August is going to bring lots of weddings and babies. And not mention gift buying. I am excited to celebrate all the upcoming love.

near impossible

2009-07-12T00:01:00.000-07:00

I decided I am going to start training for a triathlon. I mean I am talking like faaaar future but I put it on my to do list. At least for today I feel inspired... I hope this lasts until tomorrow.

confession

2009-06-22T00:15:00.001-07:00

So when we leave the house we keep the TV on for london. She is the biggest couch potato. She prefers to watch the Disney Channel. She cant take her eyes of it (sometimes she won't even realize we have come home) For about the last year or more I have been rather disappointed with my typical E and MTV that I have wasted much of my life watching so I turned to animal planet and the news. Well lately I have noticed that when I come home to find London watching Disney I don't change the channel. Husband doesn't complain either. Ever since we have been dating husband and I have had a constant battle over the remote. We finally got two remotes so we can both feel a sense of satisfaction. We have come to realize more me than husband that we really enjoy watching Disney. It is so light hearted its hard to go back to anything else. Thank you to wizards of a waverly place and miss hannah montana.

one year

2009-06-17T00:02:00.000-07:00

June 7th husband and I celebrated our one year anniversary. Its hard to believe a year has gone by. We celebrated by going to California. The highlights:

* hanging out with family

* going to the padre game

* Disney land/ California adventure

* coronado beach with cristina and chandler

* benihanas

* staying in an incredible resort

* nickle city

oh yeah and everyone that warned us about how gross our wedding cake after a year was going to be... we actually really enjoyed it.

saint george

2009-05-26T23:24:00.000-07:00

Husband and I went to st. george last weekend. I hosted a golf tournament which turned out to be a success. I was really nervous. When ever someone puts me in charge it can be a little sketchy. I am doing my internship this summer with the boys & girls club. For the last few years Lavell Edwards has put on a golf tournament and all the proceeds went to the club. Lavell did a little speech then we did a live and silent auction that went really well. I am so pleased with how much money we racked up. They put husband and I in a lavish hotel for the two nights. Oh yeah and took our 4 wheelers down and played a lot when I wasn't working. We are so thankful for our life and in-n-out.

lots of pizza

2009-05-20T23:44:00.000-07:00

Husband and I have been enjoying the beginning of summer. Last week was no exception. Here are some of the highlights:

1. Eating pizza for breakfast, lunch, and dinner (and a midnight snack)

2. Sleeping in until noon or so

3. Making smores at clay's house (husbands best friend)

4. laying out by the pool

5. Going to see Brandon and Cynthia's new baby at the hospital

6. Going to a sophisticated birthday party for Tiffany (drinking virgin mojitos, and sparkling cider)

7. Going for long walks with husband and dog.

8. Buying a new book

9. Getting ready for our trip to st. George.. more on that later

Arizona.

2009-05-11T00:07:00.001-07:00

I'm pretty sure I could live in Arizona. It just suits my fancy. We went last weekend to visit husbands family. We had a terribly fun time. We love going to all the shops and restaurants. I'm pretty sure husband and I gained a combined weight of 14 pounds. Yuck. Anyway we went to Kelly's (husbands sister) dance recital. She knocked em dead. After she went to prom and looked absolutely stunning. We also got to meet Dean Graziosi and Mark Victor Hansen and watched some of the behind the scenes in TV productions. Oh yes and we might just be embarking on a new business venture. More on that later..

This is who I cuddle with when husband is missing and London is in another state. She has a more drool then husband and london combined :)

congradulations.

2009-05-06T23:58:00.000-07:00

Brother graduated from college. We are proud of him. He gets to grow up now and do really big things with his life. We decided a few years ago we didn't really want to get to this point (the growing up part) but I'm happy he is. President Monson spoke at the graduation which was touching. One girl passed out during the speech and dropped to the floor. I guess the spirit really moved her. Or maybe just the swine flu got the best of her. Anyway, grades just came out and I got all A's again this semester. Oh, and I am still not my parents favorite. I really don't get it.

2009-05-06T23:39:00.000-07:00

Thanks husband for taking me to supercross. An arena full of motorcycles is how he envisions heaven to be. Maybe we can go to a ballet next weekend...

ruff day

2009-04-24T11:23:00.001-07:00

Little London LouLou had a really hard day on Tuesday. We debated back and forth and decided it was time. We took her womanhood away. We thought that since she was going under we would have another little surgery and have them implant a microchip. We can now locate her at all times. Oh yes, and we got her nails clipped while she was out. She hates when we try. In fact fights it with her life. We have even bought that pedi-paws off the infomericals. You know how the dogs willingly give them their paws and smile while it happens. Surprise it doesn't work like that. She flops around and has a puppy tantrum. Well an hour into her surgery I get a call from the vet. They want to remove her four baby teeth. We were very aware that she has too many teeth. London resembles a shark. It made her look tough though. Anyway I guess it can be a problem later on. So we got her four teeth removed. Well, we went to pick her up that evening and it was heartbreaking. She was so drugged up. Stumbling back and forth and drooling everywhere. We took her home but it hurt for her to lay down. She was exhausted so she was trying to sleep standing up. Every few seconds her body would give out and she would fall over. I'm sorry puppy. We love you.

please.

2009-04-21T11:00:00.000-07:00

For my PR Firm class at school I chose to work with the boys & girls club of utah county. They are an incredible nonprofit organization. Tonight I am hosting a benefit night at comedy sportz. It's a comedy club 36 W. Center Street. Only 10 dollars. All of the proceeds are going to the club. You can buy your tickets here http://www.comedysportzutah.com/ or at the door. Come and laugh. It is a really good cause. See you there...

Moab

2009-04-18T23:06:00.000-07:00

For Easter husband and I went to Moab Utah. It's a beautiful small town with mediocre restaurants and mediocre stores. It was jeep safari week in Moab. All the crazy off roaders get together and leaves their brains at home. They go down deadly trails and everyone watches for entertainment.We planned a camping getaway but with question of rain and a little laziness we went for plan B a hotel. We ended up getting good weather. We packed up lots of husbands favorite toys and had a fabulous time.

The love/hate relationship I have with the unimog.

My cute family. Who knew London would be so good at the outdoors.

love story.

2009-04-02T20:53:00.000-07:00

I am sure of it. I have the best husband in the world. I had a hot date saturday night that spoiled me. First we went to Color Me Mine. Its a fun ceramic store that you can paint and decorate.We are proud owners of lovely dog dishes.
Then he made me a steak dinner. I made the salad. The steaks were so big. But don't worry we finished them with ease. So delicious.

And to top it off we went to the movies and saw I Love You, Man. So funny. Best comedy I have seen in a while. (just don't go with your parents)

Separation Anxiety

2009-03-26T20:15:00.000-07:00

I didn't know it was possible that a dog could get separation anxiety. London has a bad case of it. If i am home she has to be touching me. The closer to my face the better she feels. She just about dies when I take a bath. She has attempted twice getting in with me. She wines and moans when I am somewhere she cannot reach. I think it is time for London to get a boyfriend. Charlie across the street seems like a good match. She has a thing for big dogs.

Growing Up

2009-03-26T19:12:00.000-07:00

Brother and Sister Weekes got a new calling. They placed us in Primary. This means 5 and 6 years old. I'm terrified. Husband will do great. We start this Sunday. We plan to win their love with really cool lessons and candy of course.

Addiction

2009-03-24T10:37:00.000-07:00

I was doing some spring cleaning while complaining to husband how we need to get rid of our mini fridge in the office. It takes up so much space and I thought we never used it. He was avoiding the topic which was unusual. I opened the fridge and found husbands addiction. I thought he was getting better. The fridge stacked with cheap energy drinks. The man is hooked. I love you but you need to lay off.

So husband and I were at the store the other day and found this: FAVEREDS.

Starburst came out with a candy with all the best red flavors. I have been talking about this advancement in history since I could talk. Honestly. Strawberry, fruit punch, cherry, and watermelon. The fighting has stopped. We can eat candy and share in peace. No more lemon and orange (sorry mom) Thank you.

On the way to school today husband and I walked outside to find our car was broken into. They stole allison (husbands new GPS). We have a hunch that they left sooner then they were expecting. Luckily they did not take anything else. There wasn't much else except a pair of nice sunglasses and a stereo. We will miss you allison.

oh brother.

Brother came into town this week. We did some really fun things and some not so glamorous things.
The best parts of the week:
1. hanging out with brother(s)

2. Making Dogpiles (with the dog)

3. Snowboarding

4. Throwing a "fake" birthday party for Chandler. Having a pinata -nobody has to know its not your birthday :)

And the not so glamorous parts of the week:

1. Putting fake tattoos (the tramp stamp) on me, husband, brothers, and brothers friends. I'm choosing not to post the image.

2. And the not so good, very bad day

Thumbs down

sounds fishy.

Husband and I went to the aquarium. Husband loves fish so we couldn’t resist. We have fish at home (brookefish & prestonfish) but I think its time to upgrade with more. The octopus was our favorite we currently are on a search for one that can live with us. It took husband a long time before he got brave and touched the stingrays. He had to watch me do it first.

Eek.
