Its a girl!!

So I'm sure you all know by know but just wanted to let everyone know how excited I am to have a little girl come in to our home. The official name will be Emma Elizabeth. The ultrasound tech was absolutely positive it was a girl and it was pretty obvious to us as well. I'm a little nervous due to the fact that I don't know how to take care of a girl. Being raised in a house full of boys never gave me the opportunity. ;) And Tammy took care of me more than I really took care of her. hehe But I'm more excited than anything and I just want to go buy something pink to celebrate!

Happy one Year!

Me and Chance have been married for a whole year, can you believe it?? :) Exactly a year ago we were married in the Manti temple for time and all eternity. I can't believe how time has flown by. I am so grateful for to be able to be sealed to the man I love forever. Chance, even though you are crazy sometimes and drive me nuts (esspecially when I am riding in the car with you), I am so glad I married you. Thanks for the wonderful year and I hope we have many many more to come!

Done with School!!!

I just want to officially tell everyone that I am done with school! It is such a good feeling! I didn't think the day would ever come. I have yet to enjoy my break as I have been preparing for Christmases, birthdays, etc, but it is soon to come. Its just nice that I can go to bed and wake up whenever I want. I better enjoy that now before the baby comes! Then I'm pretty sure there will be no peace and quiet for me.
Also, I just wanted to wish my anti-blog husband a happy birthday! We had a nice homecooked meal tonight and we are going to see the rugby movie Invictus. Happy birthday babe! I love you so much! You will be the best father cuz you already are the greatest husband. Mwah!

Oh Christmas tree!

I forced Chance to go Christmas tree shopping with me the day after Thanksgiving. We got a real tree, it smells so good. This is the first year we get to spend Christmas as a married couple. Last year was so nuts with wedding plans that we had no time to even celebrate Christmas. This year we plan on relaxing and enjoying the Christmas season. It was fun to decorate our house and get in the Christmas spirit.
As far as other new goes...I will be officially done with school at the end of this week. It is such a relief. I never thought the day would actually come! This semester has been crazy with all the work plus dealing with the lovely side effects of being pregnant. I have never been so ready to be done with school. Come on Friday!
Also, we will be finding out on the 28th of this month whether we are having a boy or a girl so stay tuned! We are finding out early so hopefully they tell us right! hehe. We are excited and cant wait to start planning!
Anyways...here are pictures of our tree...

In the back you can see our stockings. My grandma made mine but my mom took over the tradition and made one for Chance. Thanks mom!

Thank you Summer!

Last night at work I snuck away and visited Chance's sister Summer who works in the Cardiac ICU at Utah Valley. She happens to have an ultrasound machine on her floor. We snuck into an empty room and had a little fun. I saw our baby move its little arms and legs! I had never seen that before on any previous ultrasounds. I could also see its little heartbeat. It was very reasurring to me. It was so cool because when I have been to previous ultrasounds at my doctor's office they last a minute and don't let you see a whole lot. Last night we spent all the time we wanted looking at our little peanut. It was so much fun! So we decided I will just find out what sex it is at work and then I won't have to pay the money! :) Thanks Summer! You are the best!

Surprise!!!

So on Sunday we had a big family gathering to celebrate six birthdays and Tammy coming to visit from California. Me and Tammy also had another big news to tell the family...


Yes me and Tammy are both pregnant! I couldn't think of anyone else to share the preganancy experience with other than my sister. Just so everyone knows I am almost ten weeks...I still have a long ways to go! Our due date is June 11, and Tammy's is May 31st, so very close together. We are going to have to fight over mom! I am very tired most of the time so finding energy to work full time and go to school full time is difficult for me. I can't wait to be done with school so I can relax and enjoy being pregnant! I have had a little "morning sickness" but it usually happens at night. Its starting to get better, I just wish my gas and indigestion would get better as embarrassing as that is! hehe Chance wants a boy, I don't really care. I probably won't find out until January. They can find out earlier but you have to fork out 50 dollars so we will see. It is wierd to think something is growing inside of me but it is the coolest experience ever. I have heard the heart beat and have included a picture. Hearing my child's heartbeat was pretty much the coolest thing ever! I'm sure you will get many more updates in the future. ..

Our little baby, about the size of a gummy bear. What do you think it is? I can't wait to find out!

Halloween

For Halloween we went to our friends Josh and Diana's house for a little shindig. We had a lot of fun. I am amazed everytime we get together with friends how much my husband is like a little kid. Everyone loves to have him around for the entertainment. He had us in tears we were laughing so hard at his silly jokes. Oh Chance, I guess I have to love ya. :) We ate, chatted, played the doughnut game (Chance was so close to winning but his dropped on the floor), and watch the Skeleton Key, a movie I do not wish to see again. I guess its part of Halloween to watch scary movies, but me and Chance both can't handle them. But we had a ton of fun and it was good to see friends we hadn't seen in a while. Here are some pics..



I didn't realize how big your mouth has to be to grab on to that thing..


My husband is trying to cheat before they even start...

Dont we look so cute as bacon and eggs? hehe
