17 weeks and doing great

Well actually tomorrow I will be 18 weeks and everything is going very well. I am actually starting to look pregnant which is nice because I felt like I just looked fat.
This is a picture of me at 7 weeks and you can see a tiny bump but not much, but there is something there. We are buying a little bit of stuff we already bought the carseat and stroller and I totally love it.
I started to feel the baby move about 2 weeks ago which is the coolest feeling in the world. It is really hard to describe how it feels other then to me it feels like you have an inside tickle that you cant get rid of.

On the 28th of march which is my birthday we get to find out what we are having which is going to be the best birthday present. I cant wait only two weeks left. I have thought since we found out what we were having that we were having a girl. Aaron on the other hand thought it was a boy at first, but in the last month and a half to 2 months it has been thinking girl as well. I guess we will see in two weeks what it is as long as it is healthy I will be good. Well keep wishing us luck and I will keep you updated as best as possible.

And so it Begins!!!

It is a miracle. Aaron and I found out on the 26th of December that we are going to have a baby. After being told that we had less then a 1% chance to get pregnant I had given up hope of getting pregnant without any medical help. We were planning on doing invetro the beginning of 2013, but I am so glad that isnt that plan. We are both very excited. I am measuring at about 8 1/2 weeks. The doctors are saying everything looks excellent so we will see how it goes. This is the baby today. The dot at the top of it's head is the yoke sack which is normal and it is the blood supply to the baby. Wish us luck and I will keep this up to date.

UPDATE

So it has been a long time since I have posted so I will do a lot of pictures and show you what we have been up too.


Aaron wanted me to go blonde so I did. I really like it I think that I am going to keep it like that for awhile.








I decided this year that I wanted to go and see fireworks
at sugar house park. My parents and Ryan came with us. It was a lot of fun I think I might have to go again.











On the 4th of July we went up to Aaron's grandparents house. Every year Justin does a tank battle with tank fireworks. It is really cool. This is a picture of Ryan getting things ready before it is set on fire.

We also went swimming at Spencer's grandparents house it was alot of fun. It was Madisyn and Kaitlyn's first time swimming and they loved it.

IT'S FINALLY DONE....

It's Finished. We have it done, we layed sod yesterday and our backyard looks amazing. We have been working at it since the beginning of may. I really thought that it would be quick and easy and we would be done with everything by the end of May but boy was I wrong. I never realized how hard of work doing your yard was till I started my own. Since our house is 23 years old and no one has ever done anything with the backyard the soil was really hard and this house was the last one to get built so everyone but their rocks in our yard let me tell you we had a great time. All I have to say is that I am very greatful that we knew some one who had a bobcat, we used it alot. We started the beginning of May with leveling out the back yard and getting rid of all of the weeds let me tell you we had a ton. After that we did trenchings boy was that fun. We cut roots, killed trees (kind of), cut power, cut the cable line ( while you are reading this yes we did call blue stakes). It took 2 weeks to do all of the stuff and then on to sprinklers boy was that a job, but I am so greatful to have sprinklers because I was sick of pulling a hose around the yard to water everything last year. Finally after it seems like forever we were able to do sod yesterday. We started putting all of the sprinkler heads on on thursday and we fininshed that up when Aaron and I got off work yesterday. Josh came over at about 3:30 and him and Aaron started laying sod. They were by themselves for about 2 and 1/2 hours and then Aaron's parents and Spencer came over. My mom came over to help me take care of Kaitlyn and Madisyn while Josh was outside and Amber was at work. It got done faster then I thought but I am glad that I have family that is willing to help us out when we need them. After we got the sod laid we turned the sprinklers on the water the lawn and Aaron noticed that he didnt uncover on all the way so he had to dig it up and fix it. While he was doing that Ben decided to help him with the pick and the shovel. It is all fixed now and everything is looking amazing. I cant wait to be able to use my backyard and have a party. Here is the finished product.

YARD WORK

So as some of you now, but most of you dont Aaron and I have been trying to get our backyard done. Well when I say done I mean everything that includes sprinklers grass and a cement patio. I had no idea what I was getting into when I said I wanted it all done this year it has been a big project. We started doing trenches two weeks ago and we are almost done with the sprinkler part of this whole project. I swear I have never seen so many rocks in one spot in my life. We have so many big rocks that my mom came and got some so she could use them as a border for her three flower gardens. We have had a pretty fun time doing it though. It would be a lot better if the weather we be good for a couple of days and then we could probably get it done faster but it doesnt seem to be working in our favor. We have had family come over and help us and we really appreciate it. A couple of things that we have done that is kind of funny is that when we first started Aaron was getting ready to put an attachment on one of the pipes and instead of cutting that pipe he cut the main pipe that comes out from the house and the water was one so it sprayed everywhere. When we were doing trenches we had a ton of fun we did have blue stakes come out but we still manages to do some damage. We cut the cable line to the internet and cable in our house so I was unconnected for almost a week. We decided to do a rock wall in our backyard and that is going to be an area for our garden and I am really excited it looks really cool when we got the rocks last year we dropped it on accident on the green power box and squashed it but the power still work. Well also while we were doing trenches we got a power line and half of the power in our house was off which kind of was really weird they did come out and fix it and to our suprise we do not have to pay to fix anything which is quite lucky. While off to do more and hopefully not cause more damage. When we are done I will post pictures of everything.
