Our sweet baby boy (and my nieces)!!

Ty and I are sooo happy to be having a little boy! I don't like to go into much detail, but I am going to share some of the fun things about this pregnancy so far! I should start by saying that at first, it was not too fun because of morning sickness kicked my butt! Thankfully that went away at about 17 weeks, and I've felt really great ever since:) also at 17 weeks I began to feel my little sweetie move and kick... It's so fun to feel that and to know that he's okay! Tyler also felt him kick for the first time at about 19.5 weeks, which was so exciting and made everything even more real for him! 

He is almost a pound now, and about 20.5 weeks! We can't wait for September to come so we can love and cuddle him! After I found out what I was having, I went on a little shopping spree, and I can tell its gonna be so hard to resist buying everything for him! I went a little overboard maybe?, but no one can ever have enough clothes, right?!;) 

For some other exciting news... My sister is due to have her second little sweet baby girl in a few weeks and I cannot wait!! She's due May 26, and I get to go home the beginning of June, so I will get to love on her and sweet perfect little Saydee too!! Speaking of Saydee... Here's some cuteness from her!

I mean seriously, do they come any cuter?!.. She's so fun, I just love her:) so there is a lot of baby excitement in my family the next few months and were so happy!  Tyler and I feel so grateful and blessed to get to be parents and have this sweet little boy in our home.... We cannot wait!! :)

Quick trip to Jacksonville

Tyler had spring break the beginning of the month, and although most of it was uneventful, we did take a little trip to Jacksonville Florida. Our great friends, Thorn and JoAnna, came with us and we just love them!:) we basically went down there to get a burrito from Sweeto Burito, because our friends just opened a franchise there. It was sooo worth the drive... BEST burritos EVER!! And we loved seeing Tyrel, Julie, and Daniel!:)

We stayed at a hotel that night and then went to a delicious brunch the next morning. We shopped around some fun little shops as well. Then we went to the Jacksonville Zoo, and it was so fun! Tyler and Thorn were like little kids at the zoo cause they were so excited about all the animals... Ha!

My personal fave, giraffes!:)

The flamingos were BEAUTIFUL!!

Jaguar = Scary!! Ha

Anyways we had a great time!! The rest of our month has been wonderful and busy! I feel like I have had NO down time, but it's always nice to stay busy! Ty has about a month left of this semester, and then he is off for the summer... This is his only summer during all of dental school that he gets off, so we're really gonna enjoy it! We're also going to Idaho in June for a visit, and we are SOOO excited... Especially since my new niece (Saydee's little sister) will just be born! Life is amazing! Have a great day!!:)

February is for birthdays!!!

This month has been wonderful!! I feel like there has been a birthday of a close friend or family member every day, so we've basically partied all month long;) my bday was on the 3rd, and it was such a memorable birthday! Tyler had to study all day, so my friends made a delicious dinner for me and then we all went out for dessert... I love my friends!!

Since Ty couldn't hang out w me for my bday, he took me out that weekend for a yummy dinner and ice cream cake... And he got me some great gifts:)

Then... Tyler's birthday was on the 17th and so we went out to dinner to a delicious burger place w our friends!

Then I made him his favorite ice cream grasshopper cake and we played games w friends and ate that yummy cake!!

Both of us are feeling very grateful for our health and all of our blessings as we turn another year older! This year may be the best one yet;)

We also have had some ups and downs w the weather here this month, but we went on a beautiful beach walk the other week and have enjoyed some nice 70 degree weather some days!

On a different note... My sweet grandma passed away the day after my bday. She sure will be missed!! She was an amazing lady, and I will always remember her and look up to her. I know she is in a better place now, and I'm so happy for her to be w her husband and parents and son (my amazing dad) and family/loved ones who she had been missing a lot! 

She sure looked beautiful!

My grandma and grandpa when they were a lot younger... I'm obsessed with their cuteness!!:)

I know I posted this pic last post, but I love it so much and will always cherish it since it was the last time I got to see my grandma! Love you grandma!!:)

Anyways, life is going good and we're keeping busy! Can't wait to see what next month has in store for us!!

Time to get back to blogging!!

I thought I was going to give up on blogging because it's so time consuming, and sometimes I don't know what to say... BUT I made a New Years goal to write in my journal or on my blog at least once a month this whole year, so here goes post #1 this year:)

There has been so much that has happened since I last posted, so I'll just quickly recap what's going on in our lives! Ty is in his last semester of his first year of dental school... He is doing well in all of his classes, and I'm very proud of all his hard work and dedication! He has picked up a new hobby... Fishing!! He's obsessed w it and wishes he had more time to go. He actually talked me into getting a fishing license and pole so I could go w him too! I'm not super into the fishing part, but it's nice to go out w him and tag along (especially in the kayak)!!

I'm still working at the same job I started when we moved to charleston... It's at the hospital where Ty goes to school, so we get to ride together, which is nice! I really like my job, and the people I work with... And it's Monday- Friday so I have every weekend and holiday off!:) I stay super busy between work, my church calling, and my wonderful friends! It makes it easier since Ty is always so busy with school...  

We went to Idaho for Christmas, which was a total blast! It was so great seeing all of our family and friends:) there really is no place like home for the holidays!.. 

Went to an awesome light show w my cute fam! 

Visited Ty's sweet great grandma, we just love her so much!:) 

We also got to spend a little time w my sweet grandma, who I adore!..

Had lunch w my gorgeous girlfriends... Always love catching up w them!

Went to the temple with my bestie and her hubs and my hubs!

Spent lots of time w my amazing mom and sister(s), but unfortunately didn't get a pic w JoD!:(

AND I have a slight obsession w this sweet little thing! She is sooo fun and I love her so much! I couldn't get enough of her... I'll be excited to meet her cute little sis who's due in May!! YAY:)

So life is great and I couldn't be happier... Ty and I are doing wonderful and staying incredibly busy! We're looking forward to a wonderful year this year!!

Last visit to Naples to see the Marler's

Our brother in law, Aaron, just graduated CRNA school in Naples, Florida... We're so proud of him:) we were lucky enough to get to visit them 3 different times while they were living there, and the last time was for Memorial Day weekend a few weeks ago:) Katie just had a baby about a month ago, and he is so cute!! Now they have 4 darling kiddos, and we were so happy we got to see them before they moved back west. 

Us with Ty's sister and her family (baby sawyer was sleeping)

Our cute and goofy niece and nephews:) this was at the Everglades... We saw some gators, which were pretty cool!! 

I wrestled the gator.... And then.....

Tyler tried to eat it:) ha

We had fun with our cute family in Florida, and we will miss them living kind of close to us here:)

Have a great Sunday!!

The big move!!

It has been forever since I've blogged, I've been slacking! We have had an eventful and busy past several months, with lots of big and exciting changes:) We moved to Charleston South Carolina in March, I started a new job 2 days after we got here, and Tyler worked for about 6 weeks detailing yachts... And then Ty just started dental school last week!!! 

Goodbye Idaho

We were so exhausted driving across the country in our moving truck, I was halfway asleep:) ha

Our coral wall that Val helped us paint... Ignore the colorful placemats on the table, those are gone:) 

Love my new pottery barn bedding, as well as the furniture that we refinished!!

PS: we have a guest bedroom and we LOVE visitors:)

Ty's yacht job... So pretty, I was jealous of his awesome job:)

This is our pool at our apartments... It kinda feels like I live at a resort!

1st day of dental school, not sure if anyone noticed... but I have a freakin sexy hubby!!

There's a little of our life lately!! Life is GOOD:) happy Sunday!
