Our Life!

We wanted to take some pictures for our Christmas cards, but we didn't want to get professional pictures taken.  We have so many professional pictures with our engagement pictures, rehearsal pictures, and wedding pictures.  We are definitely not going to get any more professional pictures taken until our maternity shoot.  So instead, we decided to go out and visit our friends Stephanie and Travis and take pictures out there.  We will be sending out Christmas cards.  But here are a couple of pictures from that day! :)

Wedding Song

Counting our Blessings.  So much has happened in 2012.  We are so blessed!  

Wedding Song to remind of us of our special day.  

Words can not express how thankful I am that Evan has come into my life.  I'm thankful that he never took "no" for a final answer.  I'm thankful for his caring and ever thoughtful ways.  I'm thankful for the true and unconditional love that we share.  But most of all, I am thankful that he has chosen me to spend the rest of his life with. Although, he may say that it is me that chose to spend the rest of my life with him.  Silly Evan... It was never a choice.  You are my one and only.  

Bump Watch for Baby H!

Hello 10 weeks 2 days!! :)  After I eat I get a small "bump" - well... Really probably just bloating.  But we will call it a bump.  ;-)

Our next doctors appointment is December 11th.  We will be able to hear the heartbeat for the first time.  The first two ultrasounds we were only able to see the heartbeat.  Which was the most amazing thing that we have ever seen! 

The pregnancy is still going really well.  The exhaustion is down.  I feel like I have slightly more energy.  Although, that could be because I just had a couple of days off work to rest and relax with family.  Hardly any nausea or headaches.  So I've been fairly lucky!  Most of our family and friends are guessing that our little one is a boy.  (I think Baby H is a boy!)  But Evan thinks our little one is a girl.  We will see! :)

Oh!  And I got the good news that I will be having a baby shower in Maryland April 13th.  Which is good, because that will probably be the last weekend I will be able to travel before the baby is born.  At least that is the tentative date for our MD baby shower.  My mom and sister are working with my Saturday class schedule.  And our youngest niece should be getting baptized that same weekend.  We are so blessed to have be having our little one.  And to have such a supportive and loving family! :)

Here is a bump picture!!  Bump Watch for Baby H!

(And yes, I did take this in the bathroom at work. Ha!)

Thanksgiving Weekend

We had an amazing Thanksgiving weekend.  We went to Maryland and spent a lot of quality time with our nieces.  We went to Pop White's house for lunch on Thanksgiving and Aunt Vicky's house for dinner on Thanksgiving.  We had an amazing time catching up with family and sharing our good news with some extended family.  Everyone is extremely excited about the new addition to the family.  My nieces were great as well!  It was nice to see them.  We have missed them so much!  Love these girls!

Mikayla eating her PB&J.  Uncle Evan had to go outside and play on her swing set with her.  She loves her Uncle Evan.  Adorable little girl! :)

Little Makynna.  Poor thing is teething like crazy.  Still the happiest baby we have ever seen.  We love her to pieces.  

Baby H

Well, as everyone should already know... We are expecting our first little one on June 23rd!  We couldn't be happier.  Life is great.  Today is Baby H's 10 weeks!  So much is going on right now with our little one:

• Baby has working arm joints, and her cartilage and bones are forming.
• Her vital organs are fully developed and they're starting to function.
• Her fingernails and hair are starting to appear, too.
• Plus, she's swallowing and kicking in there.
