day 6-the dorkasaurus

DAY 6

i love my sweet lover cuz no matter how much of a dork i was/am/will be...

he'll ALWAYS stick by me.

day 5-ambitious brett

DAY 5

i admire and love brett so much for his ambition and dreams.

he doesn't settle for less than he deserves.

one night as we sat across from each other on the floor (we get our couches in tomorrow) talking about this and that, brett brought the question up as to how long we wanna stay here in tooele.  i actually don't wanna stay here that long and neither does he.  it all depends on how things go at wells fargo.  he talked about how he wants to really work his way up in the banking business and build an awesome customer base.  it always impresses me how dedicated he is to his work, just as he was dedicated to his schooling.  he wants to build really good relationships with everyone, knowing that that's what's going to help him in the future.  he's such a good sport at waking up early and getting ready for work, i, on the other hand, am the biggest whiner and complainer when i have to wake up early.  def something i'm gonna have to get used to when we have kids!

i'm so grateful for brett and for his job.  brett wants to take care and provide for his family and i love him so much for that.

i love him for the goals he gives himself to accomplish within a certain time frame and that he's always pushing me to make goals for myself.

i'm just so proud of him and i can't wait to see where he and his job takes our little family!

i trust him completely

brett can you just at least take us to where it doesn't snow or gets cold as much?

thanks doll ♥

day 4-family love

DAY 4

#4 reason as to why i love brett,

is that he loves my mom!

WHO IS COMING TONIGHT FROM WEST VIRGINIA!!!

brett marrying into my family has been a bit of a culture shock for him and he's been trying really hard to get used to the way my family does things.

that's just what happens in a marriage, you both come from 2 different families and you learn about how your spouse's fam did things,

and marrying into a filipino family can be even more different.

brett's been really good learning about the crazy ways of the jones' and knows how much my family means SOOOOO much to me!

so i love brett very much cuz he loves my family,

which is just uber important for me that he does!

so yeah my sweet and hot mom's coming to visit!!!!

i haven't seen her since last july and i'll be seeing my family more often this summer due to all the babies bein born in the family.  this summer they'll be coming out 2 more times and we've all been trying to figure out births and baby blessings.  it's gonna be so hectic yet wonderfully family filled.  we decided moving out here to utah wouldn't be a bad thing cuz that way my parents could come out here more often to visit my sis and i.  i just hope this year alone doesn't make them too sick of utah to visit us.

but right now my mom's able to come out and she's bringing out a ton of baby clothes she's been buyin and collectin.

this is what my dad wrote about my mom on facebook,

"Try experiencing shopping with a soon to be grandma for soon to be grandbabies....ay mama mia! Worse than her shopping for shoes and purses"

yup i think she's very excited to be a grandmama.

and i can't wait to show her my big belly!

and i honestly can't wait for her to cook for us, and when i say us, i mean me.  jkjk

she's my best friend and we're gonna go shopping, stay up late chatting, watch movies, and drive brett crazy!

it's gonna be so awesome.

day 3-my protector at the laundromat

DAY 3

i think laundromats are scary.

the one we used in rexburg was not, but the one here in tooele is.

we don't have a washer and dryer yet and those are what's on our priority list of big things to buy.

but it's just so hard cuz i'd rather buy cute baby things!

we have to do at least a load of laundry every week and i feel like it costs a million dollars to do so.

there are so many creepy people there and when brett comes with me to do the laundry i am INSTANTLY relieved and feel so much safer.

and that's another reason why i love my man.

i feel so safe and protected by him no matter where we are.

pretty sure if we were in the jungle he'll be slashin jungle cats for me.

hmmmm, maybe not.

but he's my macho man!

cute thing he did this evening...

as we were driving home from said laundromat our wedding song came on, yellow by coldplay.

and like i've stated in this past post it makes me teary everytime, and that's not my pregnant hormones.

anyways, he started singing it to me and it just melts my heart everytime. 

day 2-the rescuer

DAY 2
today we went to go register at target for some baby treasures...
such as bottles, nipples :) swaddlers, bathtubs, baby butt pastes, baby traveling/furniture stuff thats just way too expensive for anyone to really get for us but we REALLY like the colors so the registry's become more of a wish list, basic clothing such as onesies, and some other sweet and tiny little outfits, etc, etc.
holy crap, you always hear that having a baby is expensive but when you're actually gonna have a baby, then you REALLY REALIZE how expensive they are, and our kid isn't even born yet.

brett had the day off so i dragged him he gladly came along with me to go register.  while registering i couldn't help but think of when we registered for wedding stuff and how i was especially giddy, thinking about the place i'm gonna live in with my soon to be hubby and all the cute stuff that's gonna be all our own!
baby registering, on the other hand, was still exciting, yet a little overwhelming,
"i really like this cute outfit, but what the heck size do i get?"
"ok, this aisle is freakin full of just bottles and nips, and i see there's numerous sizes of everything!"
"ohhhhh this little shirt and pant outfit is SOOOO cute!"  (then i do a squeal and and close my eyes for a second thinking about a cute little boy wearing it, then brett rolls his eyes.)  and pretty sure i did that whole routine for every cute outfit i saw.

exhausting i know!  i get easily stressed, even about the littlest things, and brett is always there to save me.

which is the reason of the day as to why i just love that man.
he started getting a little scanner happy and just started scanning what felt like everything, at least in the bottle/nips section.  i thought it was funny and he helped make me not feel like it was a life or death situation as to what brand or size bottle we get.
i easily get overwhelmed just about the dumbest things and he's always there to comfort me and tell me it's not a big deal at all and he helps me figure out the simplest solutions to my problems.
he's my shoulder to cry on and then he's my partner to figure things out with.
i love him so much for the patience he has with me, he knows who i am and knows i tend to freak out too much.


he has also helped me to build my confidence up for when i am stuck in a dither and i don't have him right there with me to help me out.  i try to figure things out for myself and have learned that i don't exactly need to depend on him ALL the time.
i know i'm gonna stress and freak out when the baby comes but it's such a comfort to me knowing brett will be right there with me, learning about baby stuff as we go, and telling me it's ok when the baby isn't doing what i expected.  also knowing we're having a boy i'm sure brett will be comforting me a lot b/c i'm sure our baby boy will probably be really rambunctious.
i'm already nervous.


maybe our registry is full of non needed items due to scanner happy brett so if someone happens to check it out, let me know?  cuz i honestly have no clue what we're doing.

28 days-day 1

not talking about the sandra bullock in rehab movie, nor the freaking scary zombie movie with the cute cillian murphy but about the even more cute man in my life, my lover husband brett.

my uber creative friend KARLY created this idea of writing everyday for the whole month of february as to why you love your lover, she even made this cute button


 which you can get by clicking on it, leading you to her blog...

and i'm gonna try to stick with this challenge.

i must warn you, it's probably gonna be GUSHY, and MUSHY, and WAY TOO LOVEY DOVEY.

and you may wanna barf, but that's ok, i'm not writing for you, but for my sweet husband.  and pretty sure because it's the love month.

so let's get rumblin!

DAY 1

i love my lover because as he's been going through this pregnancy with me he's been so caring.  usually when i don't feel like cooking and we decide on a cheap hot and ready pizza from little caesar's we ALWAYS get pepperoni.  i hate pepperoni and not wanting to deprive brett of his pepperoni pizzas i usually compromise and just pick em off.  i LOVE cheese pizza, some things in my life i like eccentricity, but with my pizza it's either gourmet or go cheese!

but lately i get quite bummed when things don't go my way (it's the preggo hormones, it's aiight) so last night brett went and got me a CHEESE pizza!  its was so delicioso.  then we watched a movie and ate a ton of popcorn.  i was just so happy!

i'm not saying that i love brett because he gives into what i want, but because he does little things here and there that make me tremendously happy and makes me feel that he really does give a crap about me.
