Birthday Cake and a Large Belly

My 25th birthday was on Oct. 3rd, General Conference Saturday. It was a pretty good day, we watched conference and went out to lunch at Red Robin between sessions. After the afternoon session we headed up to Sandy and spent the night with my Grandpa and cousins. I made my birthday cake, which I was fine with. The only problem was that I lost my cake pan, so I ended up using two round cake pans. I decided to attempt to make a double layer cake. I sprayed the cake pans, but apparently not well enough because the centers stuck to the bottom and both of the cakes fell apart. I then decided that I would try to reconstruct it using frosting. That kind of worked... until it all fell apart. I kept trying to make it come out decent, and well... this is the result:


I decided to throw on some Oreos, because what the heck, it's ugly already and Oreos taste good... After stepping back and looking at my finished product I laughed the hardest I have ever laughed. Literal tears were streaming down my face. Happy birthday to me. :)

In baby news, everything is still going well. Same as always. What boring doctor appointments I have. I shouldn't complain, it's a good thing. I'm officially 37 weeks and ready to have this baby. Unfortunately I have 3 weeks to wait until my due date. Hailey is busier than ever. She has absolutely no room to move and I'm feeling it. She loves to kick my ribs and cause my belly to do the wave. It can be painful and definitely uncomfortable, but also pretty entertaining. Kyle encourages her and cheers her on whenever she decides to attack me. She also gets the hiccups at least once a day, sometimes twice. We're pretty excited for baby Hailey to make her grand entrance into this world. Here are pictures of my ever growing ginormous belly. The first picture I posted in an earlier post. It's me at 29 weeks. Compare it with the pictures below of 36 and 37 weeks. I was shocked to see how much I've grown!
