It's time to UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So this post isn't actually written by Candice. It's Jessi, Candice's sister-in-law, and I decided to make an executive decision. The WORLD MUST KNOW what Candice has been doing. There's a perfectly good computer sitting here, and I am going to tell you all about Candice and Jonathan's life.

Well, the most significant change in their life since getting married in May is that Candice now loves cheese. She never did before and she was unable to understand why Jon loved cheese so much. (Seriously, he's obsessed...) But since she's been pregnant these last three months, cheese is suddenly her favorite thing.

Yeah, there's a little person growing inside of her. He must be a cheese-eater like his father. She keeps referring to him as "him" even though they don't know yet if he is actually a "she." They'll find out in two weeks.

It's not exactly her fault she hasn't been blogging-- being pregnant makes you sick and even before that tobacco smoke at her old apartment gave her lungs a bad time. Happily moving fixed the lung problem, although the little person will not be ready to come out for six more months or so!

Candice and I have been watching all sorts of pregnancy videos on Youtube. It's fun, but a little disturbing. She's not looking forward to having her organs all rearranged, the leg cramps, poor circulation, and the fact that she's going to have difficulty breathing. One video talked about women in the third trimester passing out from laying on their backs... She's not looking forward to that, in particular.

Life is good.

That is so exciting! seriously! YEs there are some discomforts (i'm 7 months prego now) but they far outweigh the miracle of carrying and having a baby. Hope you feel good. Love you.

Candi,

Just concentrate on hugging, kissing, and holding your sweet little Benjamin Harold. It'll help get you through the difficult times.

Also, this always helped me, "...thine afflictions shall be but a small moment; and then, if thou endure it well, God shall exalt thee on high..." D&C 121:7-8.

Love you,

Sherrie
