I Love My Life!

I have the most wonderful life! My husband is so wonderful, and my boy is so sweet, and I am so excited and blessed to have another little boy on the way. I never dreamed after it was so easy to get pregnant with Josh, that it would take us nearly a year to have a viable pregnancy. Our struggles this year have brought Matt and I closer together, as do all trials and joys of life. I am so grateful to have such a loving supportive husband. I am so glad I did not settle for a lesser man just to get married younger. I had a blast all my single years, I have done things many people only get to dream of, and I am having just as much fun now that I have my husband to share my dreams with. I also am having the easiest pregnancy I could have ever dreamed (knock on wood)! I had some nausea that went away at 14 weeks, and only threw up 3 times! I felt my baby move before I was even 11 weeks pregnant, and I don't think he ever sleeps! The ultrasound showed normal anatomy, but the way he moves I can't help but wonder if they missed an extra arm or leg somewhere:) And I also think it is great I'm not nearly as big as I was when I was pregnant with Josh. I know, totally vain, but I have always been rather vain:) And I figure I better enjoy it, because I don't plan on having another ectopic pregnancy causing me to lose an instant ten pounds again! I'll just have to live with being large after this baby for the rest of my life. Or until I'm done having kids and have all the fat sucked out of me:) Now enough blabbing and I'll just show off my cute fam:)


We went up to the canyon to enjoy my birthday this fall and took some pictures. Josh with his best friend, Giz with his worst enemy:)


Matt bought me flowers for my birthday. He uses all holidays to buy me flowers, and then if it's been a while he loves surprising me with them as well!



My cute little Scooby-Doo for Halloween. The hat did not go over big unless we told him to say, "Cheese."



Matt is so happy he could cry with what a football and BYU lover our little guy is! Josh never wants to put down his football, and now sleeps with it every night!



We had our own little Thanksgiving dinner this year. It was so much fun cooking it together, though the turkey took a solid 6 hours to cook!



I'm too lazy to fix this pic, but this is me at 16 weeks. I definitely have a pooch now, but it sure was great not having it for a while:)



Our bedroom in the process of being fixed up. We started the end of June, and finished in December, but it was totally worth the amount of time it took! I'll post pics next time I blog of the finished product.



Last, but definitely not least, I finally got my piano. A tall upright, just like I have always wanted. I also always wanted it in black, because I have very fond memories of my Grandma's black tall upright, and she was such a gifted pianist! It makes me feel close to her, especially since she passed away over a year and a half ago. Miss her much!!!
