Lots of Changes...

This past month has been pretty crazy with moving down to Provo and getting settled. We're still working on getting things put in the right place and hanging everything up but we're loving our new place, thanks to our friends Aaron and Kayti we will have a bigger place for the baby! Here are some pictures of our new home...

We've got two huge trees in our front yard that we love!
The yard is huge, and will eventually have a picket fence of some sort for when our baby grows up.
Our amazing kitchen! I couldn't believe how nice of a kitchen this place had when we walked it, i love it!
Dining area that is in the kitchen, just got a new table!
The living room, with a cute bay window!
This living room compared to our last living room is huge we can actually fit both couches.
fireplace and entrance into the kitchen
Our bedroom

Guest bedroom for all of you that want to come stay with us!
Baby "G"'s room! Still in the process of making it look cute!...and our bathroom!

Another change that just recently happened is... I went BRUNETTE! Ah, I've always wanted to try it but couldn't give up my blonde hair i would always chicken out but this time I actually followed through, and LOVE it!
And here is my belly pic at 24 weeks! Only 16 more weeks to go!

I love my mom!

I've always known that my mom is super talented when it comes to sewing but I never dreamed that our little girl's bedding would be so cute! When I first got pregnant I wanted my mom to make the bedding and I'm so glad that she did! I couldn't have found something that I would have liked more! Thanks so much mom, you're amazing!!!

She put it in her crib she has at home to model it cause I was so anxious but she is sending it out to me so that we can put it in her little white crib! It's not all complete but the bumper pads and the sheets are, so I'm excited to get to see the rest once it's done! I'm thinking that my mom needs to start her own business selling baby bedding and diaper clutches & let me help out a little... what do you guys think? Here I am at 22 Weeks pregnant (taken about a week ago) I had to get a picture with Sophie and her soon to be little cousin, I hope they are best of friends! My belly is starting to grow fast although I feel like I'm a lot smaller than I should be, hopefully that just means I wont be delivering a 10 pound baby! My doctor told me at our last ultrasound that the baby is another week smaller than she should be which puts her 2 weeks behind, but it's still the same due date were just going to have a smaller baby. I experienced heartburn for the first time, which is not very fun at all, tums are my new best friend! Also, I don't enjoy wearing anything but Ryan's basketball shorts cause everything else is so uncomfortable! The baby likes to go to tumbling class almost everyday, She's going to be a little cheerleader like her mama. I love you so much already Baby "G", we're so excited to meet you!!

Our 2 year anniversary was amazing!

Ryan is such an amazing husband to me and I couldn't be happier than I am with him! He really pulled through this anniversary and made it very special for me! Not only was it our 2 year anniversary but it was also our halfway mark for the pregnancy so we had lots to celebrate! I can't believe that I'm already 20 weeks along, time really flies. So, To start off our anniversary I came home from work on friday and there was a package sitting on our front door step. I was thinking that the package was from my mom, but when I opened it I discovered that Ryan had sent me a Mrs. Fields cookie that said "Happy Anniversary Buddy". The frosting was a little bit squished from being delivered in the mail but it sure did taste amazing! I love when he

surprises me with little things like that.

Then, Ryan made some reservations at this amazing hotel up in the mountains! It's called the Zermatt Resort in Midway. It was so much fun!!! On our way up to the hotel we stopped in Park City to go shopping at the Outlet mall there, and of course we didn't find anything for us but we found plenty of cute stuff for our baby!!! Ryan is such a good sport I know he doesn't like to go shopping but he was spoiling me this trip! We got our little girl some cute onesies, a little pink summer dress, and a cute white skirt.

When we pulled up to the hotel to check in the bell boys were wearing little knickers and

German outfits and treated us like we were royalty it was pretty funny. Ryan booked a room in one of the villas there, because of City deals, where he works we got $100 off and you can get

the same deal! We bought a $200 Gift Certificate for $100, I would highly recommend it to any of you that want to get away with your husbands it was the best getaway and i'll tell you why...

The front of the resort, looks like it's straight out of germany or switzerland.

Here's our Villa...

It was really nice!!!

They have an indoor pool that has a underground tunnel to the outside pool

I know i'm so pale from not being able to tan while I'm pregnant so hopefully this trip gave me a little color

There is a carousel, tennis courts, sand volleyball, shuffle board, live chess board, a really cute bakery with pasteries & gelato, you can feed goats... and

a mini golf course, that's free if you bring your own putters.

We went to dinner that night at a place called Don Pedros that was a really good mexican restaurant.. and then afterward ryan put on his sexy outfit haha, a ninja, with our bath robe ties. He's so creative.

Here I am 20 weeks pregnant! Hopefully i'll get past the "looking fat" stage soon so people don't stare at me wondering if I'm just fat or pregnant.
We had such a great time on our anniversary getaway! I am so grateful for my husband, I really am so lucky that I found him and that he chose me to marry.. and i can't wait to have our little girl to make us even happier, Ryan will be such a good dad to her!

I'M A GIRL!!!

Picture of her legs and cute bum, I thought it was a boy when I saw that white dot, but surprise, IT'S A GIRL!!

We went in this morning at 8:30 to have our official ultrasound! I was so anxious to find out the sex and to make sure that everything with the baby was going good! I had a hard time sleeping throughout the night. After waiting anxiously while the girl did the ultrasound and checked out all of the baby's organs, which are all very healthy, we found out we are having a little girl on Christmas!!! I couldn't have been more surprised! I thought that it was for sure a boy so when the girl told us it was a girl I just broke down and started crying, I was so excited! I secretly wanted a girl more! She was so cute in the ultrasound, she kept crossing her legs and covering her face with her hands so we never really got to see her face but I'm sure she has a cute little face. Here are a few pictures of her, if you can figure out what the pictures are of exactly...
Her hands were the thing you could see the most, I loved see them!

18 weeks!

I am so shocked at how much I've grown in just the past week! My pants no longer fit and I had to get a "Belly Band" from Jaimee so that i can comfortably fit in my favorite jeans. This past weekend has been an eventful week for the baby!!! This past friday I felt the baby move for the very first time! It was the coolest feeling, we were in the movies watching inception and I felt 3 little bubbles go up my belly and then pop. I didn't know if that was really the baby but that is what everyone says it feels like. Then, today at work I felt the baby move again! I felt it 3 times before 11:00 and they all lasted about 30 seconds, and I couldn't stop smiling when I felt it. Everyday this seems more like a reality. Also this week, we find out the sex, only 2 more days! I have never been so anxious for anything before... okay well maybe 2 days before Ryan and I got married. I already love this little one so much boy or girl it doesn't matter, i can't wait to see it on Friday morning!!!

Yes, Once again...

We're moving!

Right now we're living in a one bedroom apartment in Draper, that we love!! But, with a baby on the way and only about 5 months to go I'm really wanting to have a bigger place for the baby. Everyone always says that decorating your baby's room is so much fun! So lucky us we found a great place to move to! Our good friends Aaron and Kayti Just closed on a duplex in Provo, UT that we went and looked at last week and fell in love with it! It's in a really cute neighborhood in Provo and has a huge front yard and 2 huge pine trees out front. It's a 3 bedroom house that's all remodeled. From new carpet, to wood floors, kitchen appliances, cabinets, bathroom vanity... and the list goes on. So, right now we're trying to sublease our apartment out to some one so that we can start getting our little house ready for the baby that will be here before we know it! We have a few people that are coming to look at our place this week, so hopefully someone wants it because we want to be able to move down to Provo end of august.

Also, I got the official ultrasound moved up a couple of days!! So we will be finding out the sex on July 30th! So, I won't have to wait through the weekend to find out the sex.

And here is the first belly picture at 17 weeks prego!I know it doesn't seem like much to some of you but to me I feel like I look extra chubby Cause i'm use to weighing around 105 but now I'm around 113. Yikes I better slow down on all those cosmic brownies.

Sweet 16th week pregnant and a heartbeat...

Today, July 13th we got to hear our baby's heartbeat for the second time! This time was better than the last because for one, she was able to find the heartbeat right away! Second, the baby's heartbeat was so loud and fast it sounded like a stampede of horses, which means our baby is nice and healthy! I gained 6 lbs. in the past month, It seems like in this past week my belly has grown a lot! I can no longer button my pants comfortably, my bras no longer fit me and I feel a rush of pee coming and barely make it to the bathroom in time, and it's only the start of it!!! We made our offical ultrasound appointment today to find out the sex of our baby. We will find out on August 2nd if the peanut is a boy or a girl!! What do you all think it will be?

I think it's going to be a boy for sure but a lot of wives tales point towards it being a girl! I'll be extremely happy either way!!My mom made this really cute wristlet that holds baby wipes and a changing pad for a girl, I told her that she needs to make these and sell them cause I would pay for this it's so cute!! I'm hoping I get a girl so I can have this one I loved it so much! She is so talented.

We went to San Antonio this weekend to go to Justin and Mega's Wedding and to spend some time with my parents! It was a lot of fun both the wedding and being with our family! Justin and Mega are such a cute couple!


My dad was the one that married them since he is a bishop in San Antonio so that was fun to have him do that for them! He did a really good job too!

..My dad and JustinReally cute flower balls that Kimiko made for the wedding!

We always have fun when we go home to visit... we floated the river, ate really good bbq, and enjoyed being with the family. My mom got a few pictures of my growing belly so i'll post those soon...
