Color Book

Since I have had A LOT of free time on my hands I decided to make this quiet book!  It was a lot of fun, and  I hope our baby enjoys it :)  I have another one in mind that I am really excited about and I have kinda started, so I will post it when I am done!  

Here is the color book...

Gold Panning

On Saturday Bruce and some of the guys from the office decided it would be fun to go Gold Panning!  We got out there around 6 when they got off, and they panned for a good 2-3 hours.. It was pretty funny to watch a bunch of grown men dig through a stream..  I wanted to do it, but Bruce told me i'm not allowed since i'm pregnant, cause all the water is pretty gross!  We actually got some gold too!  Not a lot, but we got some... And now Bruce wants to go again and again!  By the end of the day Bruce decided it would be fun to tackle Johnathan in the water so they were both soaking on our drive home!  It turned out to be a really fun Saturday, and it was a nice change from the day to day knocking!

8 weeks

Here is our baby at 8 weeks!  I love this picture cause it captures the heartbeat as well.  It was beating 167 beats per minute :)  The nurse practitioner said our sweet baby is the size of a lima bean right now.  It's crazy to think in a few short months it will be a full size baby in our arms!  Can't wait :)

This is kinda of a cool shot.  Its hard to see sorry!  But the baby is the bigger oval to the left, and then you can see the yolk sac to the right... and then if you look really hard there is a darker white line going up to the baby and that is the umbilical cord starting to form!  The nurse said this is a really rare shot!

Here is another picture of the baby to the right, and the yolk sac to the left!  We love this little baby so much already!!!

We're PREGNANT!!!

We couldn't hold it in anymore!  We are so excited to be having this baby it is not even funny...  After trying for 2 years, and 1 miscarriage our little miracle has finally decided to join us!!!!  I am 8 weeks along and doing awesome!  We have had the amazing opportunity to hear the heartbeat twice already and it has brought tears to our eyes every single time.  What an amazing blessing it is to be able to get pregnant, and for the opportunity Heavenly Father is giving us to raise this sweet baby. My due date is February 24, 2011!!!   Life is amazing :)
