First Comes Love, Second Comes Marriage...

We did announce on facebook but just so everyone knows we are having a baby! Our baby is due January 19th :) We found out a few days after Mother's Day! We kept it pretty quiet until we were about 12 weeks.

I gave this to Marc for Father's Day :) I need to put our ultrasound picture in it so he can take it to work.

To announce it to our family, we made cupcakes and brought them down for everyone to see. At the time we thought our due date was the 20th but then were told it is the 19th.

Here is a picture of our baby! We are so very excited to be parents. All I have ever really wanted to be is a mom and I am so happy that this is happening! We know this will be quite the adventure but we are ready!
If anyone has been wondering how I have been doing with the pregnancy, here is a quick rundown:
I started having morning sickness on our anniversary weekend, but after I started taking vitamin B6 it has been completely manageable! I have been very lucky! I haven't craved anything so far, but I have lost my appetite. Nothing sounds good but I am almost 14 weeks now and I think things are starting to get better. I am still incredibly tired all of the time but I am hoping that will be over soon as well. Other than that I have been doing really pretty great! Thanks baby :)

Family and Lagoon

Some of Marc's family came to visit us a few weeks ago. It was so great to see them and spend time with them. While they were here we went to lagoon. I am lousy at taking pictures of everyone so this is mostly pictures of Emmitt on the rides. It is better than nothing!

Happy on the roller coaster :)











He wasn't supposed to put his hand in the water.




He then licked the water. Gross! Silly boy :)











We wish the trip could have been longer and I wish I would have taken more pictures. It was so good to see them and we sure do love them!

Last Trip Home

So my parents are moving in a week and I wanted to go home one last time before they are gone. While we were there we went to a delicious german restaurant and we also drove to the top of Mt. Evans. It was so beautiful up there! There were mountain goats that I had lots of fun taking pictures of.











I like this picture of Ryan and Kirsten a lot! They look so cute :)






There were pretty flowers growing up there.


It was so fun to see the little baby mountain goats! We walked kinda close to them.

I think this is one parent telling us to not get any closer. We didn't.



On the way back down we stopped at a pretty lake up there. The water was so very cold!

My pretty sister :)

Ryan had the genius idea to dunk his head in the icy water. Silly kid! He also walked 
through the water to see how long he could last.



Marc walked through the cold water.

See how handsome he is? I sure do love him!


And my last picture in front of my childhood home. Everything is all packed and ready to move. It is very sad but I think the move might be a good thing for a while. Hopefully someday Marc and I will be able to live in Colorado, so this isn't really goodbye, more like see you later.
