Well its happening! It just seems like we just got back but off we go to B-E-A-U-tiful Pittsburgh PA again!! Paul actually left on Friday already, i'll fly out & join him in the beginning of May! We are so excited, especially since we have a lot more of our friends going out with us this time which will make it even that much more fun! :)

As for me & our baby we are doing great! I am about 8 weeks & 5 days like you can see in that cool little counter on the right. :-D ----------------------------------------------------------->

I feel a little queasy every now & then but not bad AT all, no throwing up! I can't believe how fast its already going by.

*No weird cravings or appetites

*The only thing that really makes me sick is rotisserie chicken yuck even thinking about it makes my tummy turn a little bit! Weird huh?

Its been such a special & growing experience already, just knowing that I have such a special spirit growing in me, and that I am going to be a mommy! :) wow amazing! The whole process & forming, growing is a miracle indeed!

Paul is SOO thrilled & can't wait! He keeps telling me its going to be a little girl (mostly just because that is what he is wanting) He is such a sucker for little girls! :) Its so adorable! He is going to be such a great daddy!!

Well we are loving life, loving each other, & thank everyone for your support & sweet comments & congrats!!

Happy Monday

WARNING:

This is what happens when your husband doesn't buy you anything for Valentines Day.. I think that will teach him a lesson.

1 Day After

HAHAHAHAHA! OK so I am definitely kidding. REALLY this is what happens when your playing disk golf with someone who is playing for the first time... it was actually Paul's kid from his mission (the one he trained). He was in Utah for the weekend doing Pinnacle business & actually finding out where we are going to be going this summer to sell security systems again. I got the first picture & freaked out! He had to get 6 stitches, poor guy. He is doing good now his eye is still really swollen & turning black & blue.

As for this summer: we will be returning to beautiful Pittsburgh, PA. We are so excited!!!!

We had a very lovely Valentines, I made heart shaped pancakes dyed pink for breakfast, we then had church which the speakers talked a lot about true love, true love for each other, & true love for Christ. My wonderful family made us delicious steaks, with all the helpings, they even gave us a huge heart shaped cookie with XOXO on it. It was so cute! We spent the day together, going on a afternoon bike ride it was beautiful! I gathered up all of Pauls mission pictures & made a photo album for him, it was so neat to see & hear more of the experiences that he had while on his mission. He is still in the process of writing me a letter, or so he says ;) haha. I love my man!

hope everyone had a great day!

HAPPY VALENTINES

Thoughts

As of lately I have decided I am not much of a blogger, I enjoy looking at everyone elses blogs but to sit down and try to write something or try to make mine cute has been a little difficult. I have become very lazy with my blogging even thinking about deleting it, but I know that if I did I would miss looking at everyone elses, and come on I have to be honest with myself I would probably start one back up when we did decide to have children. I have mixed feelings about blogs they are so good you can see whats going on with your friends & family, use it as a journal, get fun creative ideas off others, but then again they CAN be so time consuming & who knows who's actually looking at your blog. It can be a scary thing sometimes. I guess I just need to get back in the mood for it. So hopefully that time will come soon! I will try to keep it updated & fun to look at!

Christmas Time

Christmas was spent up in Heber with the Reidhead Family. It was the perfect Christmas weather! Snow covered the ground & the mountains. Beautiful. It was a very relaxing weekend, with Christmas parties, games, eating, watching movies, snow boarding. The Reidheads have a tradition every Christmas Eve- eat sea food, shrimp, crab.. it was delicious! Thank you to the Reidheads for such an fun, relaxing, memorable weekend!

Paul turned 23 in December his day started off normal work then school. After which he thought we were just going to go to a movie to celebrate, little did he know that I had been planning a surprise party for him. I was able to keep it from him all week, I asked people what they loved or admired about Paul and got a lot of sweet feel good responses. I then had put them all over walls of our house for Paul to be able to see when he returned from helping Talia do some Christmas shopping. (which was just a plan to get him out of the house) I went all out & put streamers & Happy Birthday signs up! Sadly I was to excited to take pictures of the decorations. It was such a BLAST!!!
