Jungle Rules Adventure Tour

A couple weekends ago Matthew and I went ventured out and did a Jungle tour on UTVs. It was arguably the most fun that either one of us has had since we have been here on Guam. We got to drive our own UTV (Matthew did most of the driving) through the jungle and over the red dirt in the rural areas of Guam. We went to the Tarzan Falls in the southern portion of the island and we got to see the falls from the top and then hike down to the bottom to see it from there too! We spent a little over 2 hours riding around and feeling like we were almost going to tip over the UTV at some points. It was awesome! We went through mud, did doughnuts in dry red dirt, and got stuck going over huge ruts and rocks.

I posted a few videos on youtube since this blog was giving me a hard time with uploading them.

Here are the links to see them:

So as you can tell we had a lot of fun! This is one of our adventures that we said we had to do before we left the island. Now, what will be next: Zorbing, Para-sailing, Skydiving, Zip-lining, or Scuba Diving?

Moving Right Along

So with the due date nearing and the anticipation of finally being able to hold our precious baby girl, I thought that I would share a little bit of my everyday normal for now! I am one day away from being 38 weeks along and let me tell you: I have one active baby inside me! Yes, she loves to move around and kick/punch mommy in the gut, ribs, and pelvis! Some of these kicks are so strong that I actually jump! For those of you that don't believe it could get that bad...oh have I got a treat for you! I recorded a mere 1.5 min video of my belly! Now this video is only a small taste of what she does ALL DAY LONG! And yes at night too! It's no wonder I have such a hard time sleeping. So without further ado, here is Ms. Isabella Marie Ohrvall staring in her first movie entitled: Making Waves in Mommy's Tummy. :) Update on presentation: Isabella is still breech and we are diligently trying all that we can to ...

37+ Week Update

So I know it has been a while since my last post. I figured it was about time for me do another update blog on the pregnancy. It will be pretty short cause there is not much new to report. I had an ultrasound at 36 weeks last week to get an update on how Isabella is progressing and what position she was in after a few weeks without knowing. If you have been keeping up with me on facebook then you know how that turned out! We didn't get any news from the ultrasound other than the fact that Isabella was still sitting comfortably in her breech position. The following Monday we had an appointment with my OB to get the rest of the information that we were wanting to hear. She told us that Isabella was growing appropriately and was looking healthy! So good news is awesome to hear! Of course she then proceeded with the news that we already heard, Isabella is still breech. We reviewed our options for turning and delivery and decided to t...

China Trip: Xian Smaller Section

We spent a few days in the city of Xian where we were able to see the touristy city as well as an ancient village still living within the boundaries of the Great Wall. It was interesting to walk around the city and notice the old mixing in with the more modern stuff in both architecture and culture. The first thing that we did when we got into Xian was take a tour of the city wall. Xian is basically what China considers a small city bordered by 4 walls that they conveniently call the North, East, South and West walls. The walls were built around the city to protect against unwanted armies with outpost every few meters for soldiers to protect the city. The big touristy thing to do on the wall is rent a bike and ride all the way around it. However, with my pregnant belly and all the bumping of the wall's stones we decided against doing that part of the tour and instead we just walked along the East wall while the rest of the group rode around the wall. ...
