Merry Christmas????

Well today is like any other day to me. I am home alone with Nathan while Jeff is working. My family is down in Provo having our traditional Christmas dinner. (Very depressing) Tomorrow we are headed to Provo, to have leftovers, but it just won't feel the same. Anyways I hope everyone else is having a good Christmas Eve. I will be posting soon about graduation and the end of student teaching.

It's a girl!

Finally an update! I'm finally breaking out of my denial of having a girl. Jeff has finally convinced me about telling people that we are having a girl. This might sound like I'm a terrible person but I really wanted another boy, that way we wouldn't have to go shopping for pink. But now that we have been starting to shop around Jeff is wishing that we were having a boy. Who understands men? Here are some pics from my ultrasound.

p.s. Keep scrolling down to check out our wedding pics from last post.

Happy Anniversary!!

Four years ago Jeff and I got married in the Salt Lake Temple. It was a fun and wonderful day. We were surrounded by friends and family. I loved my wedding day we had our wedding party in the Joseph Smith Building and was just wonderful. Here are some pics of that day. I wanted to download our DVD where Jeff is dancing but couldn't find it, maybe next time.

This pic is for Nate, Monson and Brycen. Love you guys

Happy Birthday Nathan!!!!

On September 24th my beautiful Nathan was born. It was a challenging, terrifying and painful delivery but it was all worth it. Nathan has filled my life with love, joy, happiness, tenderness, fear, etc. Nathan is the little sunshine that keeps me going everyday. Whenever I come home from school I love when he runs to the door to give me a kiss and a hug. Now, that he is getting bigger he is becoming more independent and needs less of mommy which is a bit sad. The good thing is that he still wants mommy to read him a night story. I love you Nathan! I am so blessed to have you as my baby boy.

On Saturday we celebrated his birthday with friends and family. Nathan loved being surrounded by all his friends and was thrilled that everyone was able to hit his pinata. Here are some pictures to show all the fun we had.

Pinata time!! All the kids had so much fun hitting the pinata. They all waited their turn and stopped when they were told. I was impressed.

Thanks Jeff the food was awesome. Everyone enjoyed eating those yummy hamburgers.

Our life

Jeff has been reminding me that I haven't written on the blog for over a month now. I just don't have time. I have been really, really busy. Nathan and I went to visit my family for the first two weeks of August. We had soooo much fun. I was able to hang out with my cousins and Nathan loved being spoiled. We went to Provo Canyon, Thanksgiving Point, etc. We came back home on the 14th because I started my in-service on the 15th. Monday and Tuesday I went to help out my coop teacher to have stuff ready for Wednesday. (first day of school)

Yesterday we went to Yellowstone. We all loved it. We saw a couple of buffalo's, some elk and lots of squirrels. I will be posting pictures later because I haven't downloaded them yet.

On wednesday I went to the doctor and he says that the baby is doing just fine.I was able to hear the baby's heartbeat. Nathan said that the baby sounded like a horse. We are all excited about knowing what we are having, but we are going to have to wait for another month. Well that is what we have been doing I promise i will post pictures soon.

It's Official!

So guess what? We are pregnant! I have finally decided to blog about it. I am 10 weeks and it has been a roller coaster. The baby is due February 6. We are so excited I am finally starting to feel a lot better. The first month was great I didn't feel pregnant at all, I thought "this is going to be an easy pregnancy." Well that changed about the sixth week I wanted to die. I didn't have any energy, I wanted to fall asleep anywhere at all times. Nathan has been a good boy. He has helped me a lot with cleaning his room and stuff. Although it's more challenging because eventhough I don't want to cook or get up to go to school a little bit of responsability kicks in and have to take care of my house, boy and school.

Now, another semester has ended I only have my student teaching to do and I will be DONE, and then my baby will pop out. Jeff is really excited and has been a great husband, he has been very supportive and let's me nap and cooks whenever he is home.

Happy 4th of July Weekend

I think this was the most fun I have had in a very long time. After spending months of not knowing what to do an always doing the same old boring things, this weekend was full of fun and new things to do. On Thursday my good friend Jessica and I headed out to Rigby Lake. Since my husband is never around at nights because he works and her husband also works at night we decided to have a girls night out (with kids of course) and head out to Rigby Lake. Our plan was just to have our kids play in the sand and then wait for the fireworks. Well everything went well for the first twenty minutes but then Jayden (Jessica's boy) decided to take his shorts and shirt off to get in the water and then Haili (Jessica's girl) tagged along and of course who was next Nathan. But since I didn't have an extra pair of shorts or shirt he had to go in his underwear and white shirt, later on he lost the shirt because he was too cold.

Nathan had a blast he enjoys interacting with kids of all ages and is very gentle with younger kids. He is such a cute and amazing smart boy. I love him to death, he wears me out all the time.

Isn't he cute?

On the 4th Jeff finally had the day off. Him and Nathan went to the parade that was held in Rexburg I stayed home to relax a little. Then they came home to pick me up so we could head out to Porter Park for the little Carnival that was going on. Sorry I don't have pictures of the parade or Carnival I spaced it. This is the only picture I took of the boys playing on the swings.

After Nathan's well deserved nap we headed out to Idaho Falls. They had the Firetrucks, army trucks and police department there. It was so much fun. Nathan was on a weird mode so he didn't want to hope on any of the trucks to take pictures, but Mom and Dad sure were having fun.

I have always wanted a Yorkie Teacup and we found some at the Green Belt they were soooooo cute but also soooooo expensive. We were able to hold and play with them for a while. Nathan kept asking if this was his puppy Jeff and I just looked at each other and smiled. Sadly we had to leave the puppy and walk forever and ever around the Green Belt it was so hot. Then we found Tyson's grandparents house and crashed with them. They are awesome and so fun to be with. We stayed with them until the fireworks. It was a fun and exciting day at the Green Belt.

On Saturday it was one of Jeff's niece Baptism so we headed out to see them. It was great to see his cousins and have Nathan play with his cousins too. We don't get to see them very often because they live in Utah, so it was good to have them around. Later on we went to eat over at aunt Marie's and it was great! We had homemade tacos and then we had Ice Cream. Were so spoiled. I love hanging out with those guys they're so much fun. Well sorry if I bored you but this time I did have a lot to show.
