It's a.......

GIRL!!

We are so excited to be having a Girl! We went to Fetal Studios in the Southtowne Mall on Thursday February, 3 2011. I am so glad we decided to go there. I was thinking to just wait until our Doctor appointment to find out, but we would have had to wait until I am 20 weeks. That would be another month! I couldn't wait that long to find out. I've been so anxious to know so we can start decorating and buying cute stuff for whatever we were having. Now that we know it is a girl, I have a million ideas in my head with what I want to do for the nursery. Watching the ultrasound was such an awesome experience. She was so cute- in the beginning she had the hiccups and kept bouncing around for a couple of minutes. Once she stopped hiccuping, she was moving around a lot. She kept turning and we could see her back and then she would turn and we could see the whole front of her face. Towards the end, she would take a bunch of big gulps and swallow. It was so cute seeing Isaac when we found out it was a girl. I thought for sure it was going to be a boy, and Isaac has been saying girl the whole time. He is going to be such a cute and great dad! Were so excited to start feeling her kick in the next couple of weeks.

Time Flies

I can't believe it has already been over a year since I last posted! I'm going to start writing on my blog again because.....

We're Pregnant! (Pretty much everyone already knows)

But I wanted to start up again so we can have all the memories of our new adventure. First things first- how we found out I was pregnant. We started trying in August, 2010, and I was so excited that the first month I thought for sure I was. But when I took the test and it was negative, I was really sad and disappointed. So from that moment on, every month I didn't get my hopes up at all and just assumed I wasn't. A couple months passed, and it was November. Isaac and I went up to Bear Lake with my parents for our own little Thanksgiving. I went up a couple days earlier with my mom to get the cabin all ready to go. We woke up Wednesday morning, and I had a crazy dream that all my teeth rotted and fell out. I have heard that when you have that dream it can mean you are pregnant. My mom had a feeling that whole week that I was, but I still just had in my mind that I wasn't, and said that the dream could also mean a lot of other things. So over the next couple of days, when I would wake up I would feel sick to my stomach. My mom kept saying that I was pregnant, and I kept telling her that I wasn't and I was just feeling sick from all the food we had eaten up there. Isaac and I left on Friday afternoon, and on the car ride we were talking about that I might just be. So when we got home, I decided to take the test. I really wasn't too excited because for some reason I still thought I wasn't and it was just going to get our hopes up again and we would be disappointed. So I finally looked and it was positive! We were so excited, but I wanted to take another one just in case..... I know that's crazy because if it's positive, it's positive. But I wanted the reassurance. And that one came back as positive too! I wanted to wait to tell anyone for a little while, but as soon as I talked to my mom on the phone a couple of days later, she asked if I was. And I couldn't lie, so I told her and my dad, then we told Isaac's parents. and then I just couldn't hold it in and started telling more family and friends!

I called our Doctor to set up our first appointment in the beginning of December. We couldn't go in until January 11, 2011. I couldn't believe how long we would have to wait- I was so anxious! But this was the only time she could see us for an afternoon appointment. So luckily the holidays were coming up, and we kept busy with lots of family stuff. Our appointment finally arrived yesterday, and we were so excited. We got to hear the heart beat, and it was amazing! It really hit me that there is a baby in there-this whole time I haven't really felt that I was actually pregnant (besides all the nausea). It was such a cool feeling. We are so excited and now anxious to find out if it will be a boy or girl so we can start decorating the room. :)

Thanksgiving

This year for Thanksgiving we went to Arizona and stayed with my sister. We got in on Tuesday night-On Thursday morning, the boys woke up and went to play football.

Later, we went to my Aunt's house for dinner. It was a lot of fun seeing my cousins that I have not seen for awhile. We played Ping Pong all day-that game is fun and addicting!





Playing Rock Band

We also played cards, Rock Band, and the boys played Madden. On Friday, we hung out with my cousin Mauri and her boyfriend Chase- we went down the the mill by ASU and walked around for a bit. After, we headed to Sonic for milkshakes and rented Angels & Demons. Saturday morning, my sister & I went to my cousin's wife baby shower. After, we headed back to my sister's to set up for her baby shower. We had lots of fun playing games and eating yummy food! My Uncle came over and made crepes. He is such a good cook!

Later that night we went to Bucca for dinner for my mom's Birthday. It was so much food, but so good! After dinner, Isaac & I went mini golfing with Mauri & Chase. It was a lot of fun! You've got to love Arizona-mini golfing outside at the end of November!!! We had so much visiting all our family and wish we all lived closer! Can't wait until January so I can come back out there, and my niece will finally be here!!!

-Halloween-

Halloween was so much fun this year! My friends Kristy and Jenny and I decided we wanted to be the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. We were thinking how much easier and cheaper it would be to make our costumes...... well-it was so hard to find anything green-we found every color of tights but green, we found every color of shorts but brown, and every color of tank top but green. So we bought everything white, and dyed it all. They turned out really cute! I was proud of us! They took a lot of time, but it was worth it! Isaac was going to be Splinter, but all the robes we found were way expensive, so we never got one and kind of forgot about his costume. I was so busy doing mine, and he's a guy, so he didn't come up with anything. So the last minute, we came up with FaceBook-we stole it off of the Office because it was last minute-but Isaac wanted it to be a little different, so he printed out on a paper "Predator"-so he was a FaceBook Predator..... haha We went to Kristy's to get ready and she made us dinner. Then we went trick-or-treating for a little bit with everyone and took Dylan's son. After, we went to Jenny's house-her family does a big Haunted House in their backyard every year. It was so good-it seemed like we were in a real haunted house. After, Isaac and I went back home, because he really wanted to hand out candy to the trick-or-treaters since it was our first year in our home. Not too many came by since we got home late, but it was lots of fun. Afterwards, we had our friends come by and hang out for a little while. It was so much fun-I'm sad that this time of year has already passed. Halloween is both mine and Isaac's favorite holiday!

Fall 2009

It has been so long since our last post!! We've been so busy this last month with tons of Birthdays and our Anniversary. I can't believe it has already been two years. The best two years of my life!!





We have done so many things these past two years-we got our Kitty a couple months after we were married. His name is DC and is so stinkin cute. I swear he is like our child.




After a year of being married, we purchased our townhouse and have lived here almost a year-time flies by so fast! We've had a lot of fun remodeling and making it our own home.

Here's a bunch of pictures, and I'll try to post more often!! :)

Bear Lake 2009

We went up to Bear Lake this weekend with my cousin Katelyn and her husband Tyler. It was so much fun, but went by way too fast! We drove up there Friday afternoon and when we got up there we BBQ'd steaks and vegetables. They were so good!

It started to rain and this boat looked like it was going to sink

Relaxing & Reading

On Saturday we took the bikes and went riding, but didn't get too far, because the little bike I was on got a flat tire-and Katelyn had a pretty bad crash and bruised up her whole knee-so we headed back. That night we went in to town and got dinner and Isaac got a shake-everyone else was so full from dinner(even Isaac) but he still wanted a shake! But I had a couple bites too-their shakes are so good. The next day we went down to the golf course and collected a bunch of golf balls and then had an adventure trying to find an entrance to the beach where there wasn't a lot of people so we could hit them into the lake. We finally found this little entrance and went down it to the perfect spot-there was nobody and the beach was awesome! Then we hear a four wheeler coming and it's this old man coming down and he stops and starts yelling at us that we trespassed on his property. We told him we thought the whole lake was public- his response was yes it is, but you trespassed on my property to get down here. (It was probably a ten second drive on his property, but he was really angry about it!) We told him we apologize and we will find another way out-but he wanted us to drive back on his property and find another way in. So we told him we will go ahead and do that-then he was being so nice to us and talking with us-kind of strange how his attitude totally changed when he realized we weren't doing it on purpose. We thought it was pretty funny that he must have been staring out his window waiting for people to drive on his property, because there was no house around. The closest was up on a huge hill that was pretty far away! But we finally found another entrance and hit balls on a sand bar. It was a lot of fun!
