Update!

I can't even tell you how much I didn't want to show my face in any of these pregnant pictures...but my husband told me that was totally boring! So here is my round belly and my round face. As you all know I have a round face even when I am not pregnant...so I was doomed!
Much more my style no face only a cute baby bump!!!! I love it!

Feeling her move

I know I am not usually the kind to just post my thoughts, but this is one of the most amazing things I have ever experienced! I have heard expectant moms talk about how fun and amazing it is to feel their babies move inside their tummies. I am just in awe to be experiencing it myself. I can feel her role and kick and punch! She moves the most later at night after I have had dinner (althogh I can feel softer kicks on and off through out the day). I find myself sitting on my couch for hours and putting off sleep just to play with her! I can move my hand around and she will find it and kick it...I love her so much already and she is only a little bigger than a bannana! I can't imagine seeing her facial expresions or holding her little hand in mine! But in the mean time I am excited to feel her grow inside of me and have her kicks get stronger and stronger. Although I was blessed to get pregnant so fast I feel like I have been waiting to be a mom my whole life I am excited for this responsabiltiy Heavenly Father is giving Ty and I. I promise her I will be the best mom I can be and when I am not I will try harder. I feel so blessed!

I love getting fat....

I know this isn't the best picture but I always forget to take them when Ty is home to help so they are tricky to do by myself! I took this picture last week and I swear it is even bigger now! I love it. When ever I see people at the mall and tell them I am five months pregnant they always say, "You are so tiny, it must be your first." I think they think that is what most people want to hear...but not me!! I want them to tell me my belly is so big and cute and they totally knew I was pregnant! I make my husband tell me I am giant everyday and I think he loves the change from when I used to make him tell me I am as skinny as I was in high school! I love getting bigger because it is a sign that my beautiful baby girl is growing big and healthy. Pregnancy Has been the most amazing thing I have ever experienced! It is amazing to feel this little thing inside you moving around. I love her so much already I can't wait to see her beautiful face but in the mean time I can't wait to keep growing bigger and bigger and feel her move more and more! What can I say I am in love!

Schnepf Farms

This Saturday we met up with the family I nanny for and went out to Schnepf farms with them! It was so much fun...I never realized what a big deal this place was. There were a ton of fun games and hay rides and of course yummy food. Sam thought she had died and gone to heaven when she got to ride on a real pony.
And of course a picture of my favorite boys!


To be honest I really wanted to get a picture of a pumkin painted on my face..that was one of my favorite things when I was a kid, but I figured since I am already starting to look like one I better pass!

From June to October...

I have a confession..for the last four and a half months I have been keepeing something from you(not really I think most of you know by now!) Ty and I are having a baby!!!!!! I am currently 19 weeks pregnant and just found out yesterday that We are having a baby GIRL! I feel so overwhelmed and so blessed! I have wanted to be a mom as long as I can remember. Like most little girls when asked the question What do you want to be when you grow up? I was always quick to say a mommy. I can't believe it is finally happening! I am so excited to be having a girl even though I would have sworn I was having a boy! I hope I can be a good example to her and not totally screw up! I am so excited and just wanted to let you know!!!!!!!!!

It is hard to believe that in June she was pee on a stick and now she is a bump in my belly!

Happy Birthday!!!

Birthday Boys!!!!
Today is my Dad's birthday and September 7th was my little brother Cole's birthday! These are my second and third favorite guys that ever lived (Ty is number one obviously). I get emotional just thinking about them. My dad is one of the strongest hardest working men I know. He has always taken care of us kids and more importantly he has loved us and taught us how to be strong out going people. I get my ability to talk for hours on end from him! Cole is my angel, I love him more than words can express. We are 14 years appart so I always like pretending like he was my baby when he was growing up. I would die with out him in my life! I am so proud of the good person he is! I love you guys...Happy Birthday!

The good old days...

Not That I don't love my life right now...especially with all the fun changes that are coming, but I can't help missing those times when it was all about me!!!! Every weekend was an opportunity to dress up and play with girlfriends! AH Girlfriends..love them, miss them. We would have the funnest times doing nothing! We would razor around Tempe town lake and stuff our faces with pizza! I feel like I didn't have a care in the world.
We clearly loved our selves..kind of embarrassing

Mexican Riviere...

The cutie dark haired girl is just one of Ty's many little cousins!
How sexy is my Husband? The cruise ship had a guitar hero contest every night...needless to say my rock star of a husband won!

This is totally not going to help the fact that Ty and I's life seems like one big vacation! This last week his Grandparents (the same ones that sent us to hawaii) took us along with his entire family (i.e.aunts uncles cousins parents) on a cruise through the Mexican Riviere to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary!!!!! I know right? We had so much fun...unfortunately my camera died on like the seccond day and I forgot the charger!!!! So I only have the few pictures!

A day in the life...

The summer time is a really hard time to keep childeren entertained and you from sweating like a pig! But we have come to love hanging out at Tempe beach park(minus the week when the water was infected with some nasty virus!)
This is the little girl(Quincy), that my little sister babysitts and Jack's future wife! I mean look at her she is chubby perfection!!!

Lets go GNO!!!!

This last weekend my best friend Chelsea came into town from washington so of course we had to have one of the things I cherish most in life...a night with just the girls! We went to cheesecake factory and then we saw Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2...ha it was so fun to spend time together! I love these girls so much and I don't know what I would do with out them in my life!

Family Vacation

This is my gorgeous hubby showing you what we do on the beach all day...read and layout!
This might have no signifigance to you but let me explain what is happening in this picture. My little brother is playing one of the many childish games my HUSBAND has made up to kill the time until they seat us for dinner....most adults just sit patiently engaging in conversation until that time but my cute husband seems to relate more to nine year olds than grown ups sometimes!
This is what the grown ups did while we waited! haha

Everything is broken!

Ok I just want you all to know that for some reason my new computer isn't working so I haven't been able to update my blog(someone is coming to look at it today). Oh and I am using my family's computer to let you know that. Second thing is yesterday I got in the pool with my cell phone in the pocket of my swimsuit shorts...I didn't notice it was in there for 45 min! So if you read this please text me your name and phone number so I can get all your numbers re-saved...I lost all of them!!!!!

LAUGHTER

What can I say? I love him and he loves me!

To Grandma's house we go!

Ty and I drove up to Snowflake last weekend to pick up my little brother from my grandparents house. My grandpa has these old three wheel bikes that he rides all over the small town and everyone I mean everyone knows who he is! When we were growing up we thought he was famous or something!
So when we were driving them around town we felt famous too! Famous in a small town (I think that is a country song.)
Cole's seat kept turning and he had a little bit of a melt down this is his angry face!

I could see the signs of bordom coming weeks before I was actually brave enough to go brown so I started the change by cutting my own bangs!
Then I decided to man up and do it, I was ready for a change so here it is! OK remember I took this picture at the end of my sweaty work day....but you get the idea!

When our love began...

Please don't ask me why I am putting these pictures up...I just couldn't stop myself!! We are at my grandma's house and she had these in her picture files so I figured what the heck! If you didn't know Ty and I dated in high school here is the proof! Look at how young and skinny we were! I can't believe how much we have changed.
This is the night before Ty left on his mission and my brother and sister came by to say there goodbyes.

Good old Mexico...

This Last weekend was so fun..our friends Jake and Jessica have a condo down in Rocky Point and four of us couples went down to enjoy it! The girls layed on the beach all day while the boys went spear fishing! Talk about the perfect vacation! Thank you Jake and Jess!!!
I am going to brag about my husband for a second because he was the first one to catch a stingray!!

Gross and kind of cruel but better them then us

A day at the beach...

It is so hot outside!!! What else can you do but swim? NOTHING! The kids I nanny have a grandma that lives in Val Vista Lakes...if you have never heard of it it is just a cool place that has a man made beach for kids to play on. My little sister took the kids she nannies and made a day of it! So fun!
Sometimes I contemplate never giving him back to his family. SO CUTE!
