Boy or Girl??

We (hopefully) find out the sex of the baby tomorrow :D

BOY OR GIRL??? Whats your guess?

Hmmmm... we will see we will see
Hopefully the baby cooperates and we can find out. Jameson thinks it's a girl, but I cant decide if he really thinks that or hes just saying that so he doesn't disappoint himself if its NOT a boy ;) I think its a boy. We will find out who is right tomorrow

house pictures... finally!

Ok here are the pictures of our wonderful super amazing new house finally. We feel so blessed to be here and we love the area. Minus the crazy dog next door who loves to bark every morning at 5.. I hope it doesn't last much longer. We also love our ward. I have to tell you a funny awesome story about our ward before you scroll down to see pictures... So we were sitting in Sunday School (which I also love by the way since I have not been to Sunday School for two years because I was in nursery forever) But anyways, we were learning about Moses and his people after they crossed the Red Sea from Egypt. We were discussing how they were murmuring against Moses for everything they had to leave behind in Egypt compared to what they had in the wilderness. So our teacher was talking about the pride cycle and how we have to be humbled sometimes to make us remember the important things we have and to remember Christ. So the teacher asks us, what has humbled us in our lives? So Jameson raises his hand, (I was a little nervous because sometimes Jameson says things and I wonder what the heck he is going to say)... So he raises his hand and tells everyone that we just moved into the ward and are starting out on our own in a house. He said when we were kids we were use to coming home and opening the fridge and having everything in there, like ice cream. Now when we he comes home you just don't have that kind of stuff in the fridge anymore.... I cant remember it exactly, but he also missed the punch line. What he was meaning (not just referring to the ice cream) was that living on our own we have learned how to provide for ourselves because our parents don't provide that for us anymore and we were humbled by this. So anyways, after Sunday School a very nice older couple came up to Jameson and asked us for our address. He said he wanted to buy us some ice cream. When they actually showed up at our house with a HUGE tub of cookies n' cream ice cream I so shocked, and excited of course. (Pregnant+Ice Cream= GOOD!!). We have such a good ward and feel so welcome already.
We are humbled that we have this amazing house and have needs possible to provide for our selves, the things we need, and even some of the things we may not need. But it was also good to know living out here so far away from our families, we have a ward family who is here to help take care of us if we need anything... or just stop by to bring us ice cream because they wanted to.

So anyways, now moving on... here are some pictures of the house. Its still a work in progress, but enjoy! House warming party soon to come :)

belly pics

So I decided to post some belly pictures because I have finally noticed my belly is starting to pop out. The main reason I have noticed this belly is because I don't fit into my jeans anymore. I definitely need to go maternity clothes shopping this Saturday! If anyone wants to join me let me know... I have coupons from Kohls!

14 weeks and 3 days


Maternity pants anyone?? Lol

Cravings

So someone just asked me the other day if I have been craving anything yet. And I must say there is nothing specific, but quite a few different things. Its really weird though because when I crave something I crave it really bad. Then after I get it I think its awesome and I want it all day everyday! So I run out to the store and get a big bag or box of whatever it is because I know I will be wanting it ALL the time right??
WRONG

For example, one of the first "cravings" I had was string cheese. So the next time I was at the store I bought a big bag of sting cheese because, at the time, I wanted it all the time. Well... the bag I bought is still sitting in the fridge and only partially eaten. Now when I open the fridge trying to find something that sounds yummy to snack on, I look at the cheese and think ewww gross. Hmmmmmm...


So my next example is really strange. After string cheese I was craving Poor Brothers Salt and Vinegar chips... funny I know. But after I got some I repeated the same process as before. Went to the store, bought a big bag, and thought I was going to stock up for all the future times I was going to want some. Well... they were still sitting in my pantry only partially eaten when I decided to take them to work to be eaten by anyone else who wanted them because I definitely did not anymore.I did not even want to open my pantry and look at them anymore. Just looking at them made me sick! So you think I would have learned my lesson by now right??
Haha. WRONG

The next thing I was craving was these suckers. I got a little bag of goldfish at the store because I thought it would be a good snack. Then after I had them and devoured the whole bag in a total of ONE day I decided... man I need to get a big box of these things. Because at the time I was thinking these are SUPER amazing and I want them ALL the time. So I went to the store and bought the big BOX (not just a bag but the huge BOX) of goldfish thinking this will last me like... maybe one week. HA! Funny. I can at least say I finished more of the goldfish than the other two "cravings" I had, but since I bought the HUGE box, I still have tons of goldfish sitting in my pantry. At least this time the gold fish wont go bad and I can keep them and see if they will sound AMAZING to me later in the pregnancy.
So now that I am writing this blog I have come to realize these crazy cravings I've been having.I think I will think twice before I run out and grab a big box or bag of anything that sounds good because a week later it probably will not sound so good anymore. But then again... when I want something I really can't control myself and I will probably be repeating this whole process throughout my pregnancy.
P.S. My latest craving has been NERDS the candy and I have not gotten to the store yet to get any yet... but I really really want some soon!!

Good bye first trimester!!

Today I am officially 13 weeks, which means I am out of the first trimester. Woohoo! Now hopefully that includes saying goodbye to nasty food aversions and nausea as well. Oh and the fact that I feel like an old person being so tired all the time (no offense). Its just that I'm 20 years old and suppose to be feeling young and alive right?!?! Think again. When your body is a 24 hour baby making factory I guess your bound to feel exhausted. As a result from all this, we have not gotten any work done on the house this week. I have come home from work super tired and lazy. Its been really hard these first three months, but I know it will all be worth it come end of October. And I know I still have A LOT to look forward to that probably wont even compare to the way I have felt this first trimester. I don't know how I will ever convince myself to do this again. Kudos to all you moms who have tons of children!! Seriously!!
