I am about 5 months along today. I am glad that I am starting to show more. I still dont get very many people guessing that I am pregnant, but that is probably a good thing.

New hobby
I just bought a new digital camera. I am also going to be getting some photography books and taking a few classes if I have time. I am very excited to be learning more about photography and my camera. I love taking pictures, especially of my nieces and nephews and I cant wait to take pictures of my little baby. I took this picture the other night from my backyard while Robbie was pulling weeds.
I'm Sorry!
It has been way to long since I have posted anything on my blog. Quick update on life:
1. I'm pregnant! Robbie and I found on in January that we were expecting our first child. I have waited my whole life to be a mother and now it is happening and I couldn't be more excited. We are having a little boy...well I hope that he is little. Right now we are thinking about naming him Robert Wells Knowlton, IV or Quad Bob (QB for short). My mother in law is begging us not to name him that, but Robbie feels like it is a good tradition that should be carried along.
2. Still working at Tuacahn and things have been very very busy. I am in charge of the box office which includes selling almost 4 million dollars in ticket sales a year. Also I am in charge of group sales. I sell tickets to about 300 bus loads a year. On top of those two full time jobs I also am the receptionist for the Center for the Arts and that means personal secretary to the CEO and company. Needless to say that I have a lot of work to do in a little bit of time. However, this season is shaping up to be the best Tuacahn has ever seen and I am very glad to be a part of it.
3. I am still working as a massage therapist a couple of nights a week and on weekends. It is interesting doing massage while being pregnant. Although I am barely showing I still manage to bump my belly on things and get lotion on my shirt a lot. I think that I will continue to do massage until I am about 7 months along. I really like doing massage and the extra money is always a plus.
4. We are in the process of putting in our yard. The front yard is very sloped and the grass would never grow because of the slope. So Robbie and his dad have been carving into the dirt to put some terraces in and even out the yard. It has been a lot of hard work, but it will be worth it in the long run. The back yard is already level and has sprinklers so that will be easy to finish up. I am glad that I am pregnant and just get to watch the work being done.
That is my life in a nutshell. I am going to try and keep this updated so all of you can see pictures and hear about our life, but you must forgive me if I slip up every once in a while.

5K Baby
This past weekend Jenni and I ran our first 5K. The race started at the Dixie Center and when I got there I couldn't find Jenni anywhere. There were a ton of people all around, and she had my number. I was already nervious but that made it worse. Before the race started we pointed out everyone in the crowd that we thought we could beat. That helped calm my nerves. There were a few 6-10 year olds running the race. They pretty much all beat us. When we started we said that we would run the whole way no matter what. I felt really good as we got going even though it was pretty cold and we both finished pretty strong. Jenni and I both did very well. We ran the whole way and finished it in under 35 minutes. (16th in my age group):-) I feel like I have the running bug now. I cant wait until we run our next race.

Happy New Leaf
It is the time of year to make some resolutions. I have quite a few things that I need to do better, but I am going to try and write some of them down. You know what they say, a goal not written down in a wish.
Step one: Eat better. Of course this is a cookie cutter new years resolution, but it is important. I've been trying to incorporate more fruits and veggies into my diet, and less fat and junk food. Also I've been trying to make more meals at home, and bring a lunch to work.
Step two: Lose weight, Work out, Be healthily. Another cookie cutter resolution (I wont get points for being creative) Robbie and I just signed up for Gold Gym and I have discovered that Spin Class is kind of fun after you get past the "I-hate-my-life-I-am-going-to-die" part. Also Jenni and I are planning on running our first 5K in a few weeks.
Step three: Be a better person...I know, its pretty vague. This will include attending the temple once a month, reading my scriptures, paying my tithing on time, flossing my teeth, saying thank you more, not judging(as much:), you know...things like that.
I could go on and on with all the things I need to do better, but that would be depressing. I will start with a few of the basics and work from there.

Lately...
I've been pretty busy lately. I've been working a lot with Tuacahn's Festival of Lights. It is always hard having to be at work 3 or 4 nights a week during Christmas. Robbie and I have been trying to get all our shopping done, but I have discovered that I am not very good at Christmas shopping. I go into a store and an hour later I leave with nothing.
Robbie and I gave a talk in sacrament meeting on Sunday. It was about repentance. It was nice to speak and get it over with. The talks went really well.
Tonight we gave all the animals baths and cleaned their homes. Bosco was first and we accidentally killed one of his guppies. When we put them in the sink they all started swimming upside down and before we could get them all out one died. Its alright because Bosco was supposed to eat those guys a long time ago. Jack and Felipe were the hardest. We had to take their terrarium to the car wash to get it clean. Then we had to clean the iguanas with mite shampoo. Then we gave Chino a bath. He is so cute when he gets wet. I think he is the most cooperative of all the animals.
That is what I have been up to lately.
