Oh the things we do!

Friends! I cannot believe that this semester is almost over! Well deep down inside I am saying "FINALLY!!!" because this one has been tough but, hey everyone has to have one of those tough ones! I am also thrilled to see the beautiful spring weather, ah! Allergies here I come! Ha no just kidding, for all of you who suffer from those terrible sniffles and watery eyes during this season, I am so sorry, because they are no fun. I want to share with you what I did over the weekend, I sure did have lots of fun!
This weekend.....
-I started out the weekend going to the temple! I have been going the majority of the Fridays in this semester, and I have noticed that when I don't go, I never accomplish the things I want to for the weekend. All of the temple workers have now grown to know my name and always greet me with a warm hello. Al of them are wonderful people and set such a big example for me.
-I got a Joico treatment... wow these feel really good and are super good for your hair. I felt super relaxed and this deep conditioning treatment has got me hooked! Ha and even better it smells super yummy!
-I had to change my oil in my car... ha well that sure does add up, plus I had a tail light out, but it needed to be done. Now I am good for another couple of months!
-I made bridal shower invitations for my sister Courtney's shower! I am really excited to host it and I had lots of fun making them. (I love doing showers and I love planning them, even though my sister Kelsey is only 12 weeks along, I am starting to plan a baby shower for her!)
- My sister and best friend Kelsey and my brother-in-law came up for the weekend, we met at Arby's and had lunch after I changed my oil in my car. I sure love them, we laughed and enjoyed each other's company!
-I DID NOT STUDY AT ALL!! This might be bad ha the semester ends soon and finals are closer than I hope for.
-I got a free Jamba Juice!! Yummy!
-I turned my room into a waxing spot, Kelsey brought her business with her this weekend. It was super sweet and I highly recommend scheduling an appointment with her to get whatever you want waxed! She is very talented and she does skin things too! Her bed took up most of my room but I am so proud of her, she will receive her Master's in Esthetics's. You go sis!!
-Chis, Kelsey, and I went up to City Creek! It was their first time and my third, we had lots of fun! It was a beautiful day to go shopping! We went into the Lush store, and we got this amazing body butter, but one thing, it is in a bar! It smells super good, almost like you can eat it! Kelsey found this bar to help with stretch marks, ha I had to laugh about that, it is almost surreal that she is going to have a little Cunningham running around!
-As a family, we had a dinner, with everyone there! It has been a while since we all had dinner together! It was a family favorite, Red and White Pasta! Mmmmm delicious! 11 people and growing, all of us around on table is such a fun thing! We are loud, funny, and full of joy! We even were able to take a few family pictures! We had dessert and still let the fun last!
-After all of that Chris, Kelsey, Steph, and I all went to Target to get our outfits for Courtney's wedding! Yay we finally have our skirts and shirts! This is a huge step for us! Time to make headbands now!
- To finish off my weekend, I went to the president of my old sorority's farewell. I love my Theta ladies and it was wonderful to see them! I am so proud of Lisa and wish her luck! I hope to see all of them soon, and I am so grateful for them in my life!

What being in college has taught me

I know I have been terrible at writing on my blog the past couple of months. School has engulfed my attention and honestly blogging has been the last on my priority list. I wanted to write blog about my college experience... since I graduate in 53 days. I am thrilled beyond words to be this close to being done. I had know idea it would feel like this nor that it would come so soon. In just a few short months I will be able to call myself a graduate of Health Promotion and Education with an emphasis in Community, also being eligible to become CHES (Certified Health Education Specialist) certified. Wow what a mouthful! Being in college was not like I expected, it was much more. I have been through the worst of worst and the best of best experiences. I would like to share with you what I have learned in the past four years (From beginning to end), I hope you can get a good laugh about it. To those who have yet to start college, I strongly encourage you to start thinking about going. You w...

Staying Organized with a Baby and a Budget

Happy 2019 everyone! I hope your year has started off great and I hope it continues to be wonderful! I would like to consider myself to be pretty organized. Some people may find it weird that I love to keep things tidy and have a spot for everything. I hate clutter and huge messes. Yes I know I have a baby who loves to get into everything, literally. So I have had to learn to let her be little and let there be messes. Like most people I know, I binge watched Netflix show "Tidying Up" with Marie Kondo and her KonMari Style. Although fairly organized before the show, I felt inspired to get rid of more and organize deeper. I feel SO much better when my house is clean and things are put away. Spencer always makes fun of me for this slightly OCD quality I have. As I have been taking night classes and not getting home until 9 pm I have found it easier to not want to clean up the kitchen before bed. I do it anyway. Does anyone else have to have a clean kitchen before they go to b...

Potty Training and tips

I know most of you won't care about this post, but I know my future self will be grateful for it. Potty training is so tricky and it really tested my patience. I know everyone experiences it differently and each kid is different. I did a bunch of research on tricks and tips. I didn't just stick to one, I tried a few different ones and even combined some. Let's start from the beginning. Spencer and I wanted to have Evie potty trained before our new little one arrives. I can't even begin to tell you how many people told me I should wait until the new baby came. A good chunk of these same people told me Evie was too young (she is 22 months) and it wasn't worth my time to even try. Here's the thing; I kind of get why people told me these things, but it really made me doubt my abilities to teach Evie a hard task. Let's all be kind and not mom shame those who try things differently and earlier than others. I am with her all day, every day and paid attention to a...
