It's A Baby!

I went to my first doctor's appointment today. I was anxious and nervous because I had only met this doctor once when I went to my friend's appt with her. I think he's really great and personable and I feel comfortable asking him questions. So, here's our first ultrasound! According to the growth of the baby I'm 9 weeks 5 days, but for now we are still sticking to the original due date and that I'm 9 weeks 1 day today. Anyway, if you watch the video you will get to see the baby moving and everything! We couldn't be more excited. Only 4 more weeks till we find out if it's a boy or a girl. The countdown to February 25th has begun! Bets anyone?

We're Having A Baby!

Ok, here's my official baby blog post.



I always see these great pictures of people's pregnancy tests and try as I might, I just couldn't get a good one. But yay! We're expecting our third bundle of joy. I believe I'm 6 weeks pregnant, but I will find out for sure when I go to the doctor in 3 weeks. I started feeling sick just a few days after Christmas, and this baby can't choose whether to make me sick in the morning, afternoon, evening, or all day. However, it's a small price to pay. We are so excited for this blessing.

On a school note: we start school again on Monday. It didn't feel like this break was nearly long enough. But Adam now has his associates in Computer Engineering and Electronics Engineering, so he is hoping to find a good job in his field...finally!

We hope you enjoyed your holidays!

Christmas Cookies!

I really suck at making sugar cookies. I don't know why, but they always turn out tasting awful. I attempted again this year and while Adam says they are good, I don't believe him. Well, they look good at least. I know Santa will love them tomorrow night! MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Playing in the Snow!

I have been slowly accumulating snow stuff for Reese and Noah over the last few weeks. Reese has been begging to play in the snow and I felt so bad becasue she was missing boots and snow gloves so I wouldn't let her go out and play. Well, she's still missing the snow gloves, but she has regular gloves I let her go out in.





Seriously could they be any cuter?

Gingerbread Houses!

So yesterday I spent 7 hrs baking gingerbread houses with my mom. By the time we got done, our feet hurt, our fingers were burned, the kitchen was a mess, and we were just plain exhausted. Today we went over to my mom's to decorate the houses. Adam was very meticulous about his house and took about 4 hrs to do his! But it turned out great. I helped Noah decorate a sleigh and Reese did her house all by herself. I was so proud of her. Ok, so here are the pictures of all our fun!!! Enjoy!!!

What a cute gingerbread village huh? By the way, those other houses were my Mom's, Markham's, Kathy and John's, Angie's, TJ's, Brandon's, and Jessie's. I love the holidays. It is so great to take part in traditions and be with family! We miss those who can't be with us and we hope to see you soon! We love you!

Merry Christmas!

I did it!

Well, after a whole semester of putting it off, I finished Goldman Sachs: The Culture of Success tonight. I had to read it for my Financial Institutions class and while it had some dry moments, I enjoyed the book overall. If you are interested at all in the history of investment banking and the ridiculous amount of money that can be made, I recommend it.

P.S. Thanks to Amazon for the picture.
