Jake & Summer

PINK

We won't be seeing any blue clothes, basketball playing little boys over here because we found out we are having a baby GIRL! We were pretty shocked, so shocked that the first words that came out of Jake's mouth were "dang it". How dare he! haha We just said we had both wanted a boy for our first, so when we saw it was a girl we were just shocked but SO excited! I know that once he holds that little girl for the first time he won't even remember that he wanted a boy. Other than all the exciting baby news, we have had a lot of new things happen in our lives lately! After graduating from college, we made the move to the great state of Utah! Jake is starting up a new business venture with his good friend Jesse called Kesler's Mulch Renew (The Kesler's are the business owners). What they do is re-die your mulch rather than pay to get it replaced... so it saves tons of money! He is doing that for the summer and then hopefully will find a job for the winter here in Utah. I am just being pregnant and working full time at DishOne Satellite on their retention team. We are loving it so far here in Utah and are excited for the new adventures to come.

I feel silly taking these pics but everyone tells me I won't regret it and I need to do it! So I try to do it as often as possible! I already feel like my belly is big.. haha but I know it only gets bigger!

This is me at 14 weeks!

In the waiting room waiting to find out what we are having!

18 weeks! This is when I really started to notice a little baby bump.

Our little girl!

We are DONE!!

We did it! It finally came! Jake and I both graduated from BYU-Idaho on April 6, 2012. He graduated with a Business Management- Finance emphasis degree and I graduated with a Elementary Education degree. My parents and little sister came up for the big event and all of Jake's family was in town for Easter weekend so we had a fun houseful for our celebration!

All dressed up in our gowns!

The after party! All the boys decided they needed to sit on the same couch

This was on the Saturday before Easter. Konda (Jake's mom) set up an adult "easter scavenger hunt" for all of us married couples and it was so fun! She sent us around to all sorts of places around Rexburg where there were different clues leading to each place. Like one was at Jamba Juice and in order to get our smoothie and clue we all had to do the bunny hop, things like that! It ended with an easter egg hunt in their backyard (that involved money). She made it so fun!

Tiara and Blake blessed their baby Keaton on Easter Sunday! We had a huge brunch afterwards with lots of family and friends. Such a cute baby!

In our Easter best!

Happy Birthday!

In my ward I am the Relief Society Activities coordinator... or something like that. Basically head of the Relief Society Activities! On March 17 Relief Society turned 170!! So we knew we had to celebrate, not only Relief Society's birthday, but we had a big celebration for ourselves as well! Because it wouldn't be Relief Society without all the sisters in the church! We made a huge dinner that consisted of Cafe Rio Salad with all the fixings, tons of cupcakes and goodies for dessert, we even had a little "candy bar" for all the girls to stock up on candy and take home! We had such a great turn out and I definitely could not have pulled this off without alllllll the help I had! (photo credit to Kelsi! I forgot to take any pictures!)

Lime

Today I am 12 weeks!! Not going to lie it hasn't gone by super fast, but hopefully this pregnancy starts to speed up! Ever since I hit week 8 I have been pretty sick, if I let myself get the least bit hungry it is all over. BUT I am slowly starting to get over that and have been feeling pretty good. Nights I still feel pretty nauseous, but nothing a zofran can't get rid of. My official due date is Sept. 24 (seems soooo far away!!) and at 12 weeks my baby is the size of a lime! It blows my mind that there is an actual living thing in my stomach right now.... so crazy! Along with graduation (in 3-4 weeks!!) and job searching our lives have been so busy but we are loving this moment in our life right now and can't wait for the new things to come!

My sister told me that she regrets not taking pics to see how her belly has grown, so I am starting now! I already feel huge and bloated... haha but I can't wait to get a big baby bump!!

First Christmas

This Christmas we went down to the warm state of Arizona to be with the Lewis family! The week was spent with great weather, good food, great family, friends and even more! I love pictures, so this blog post is a picture overload! Enjoy!

We got there the day before my dad's birthday so we were able to celebrate with him!

My grandma and grandpas annual Christmas morning breakfast! We actually did this on Christmas eve, but this picture is just of all the GREAT grand kids! Our family is growing so fast!

For the night of Christmas Eve we have a Mexican Fiesta! This year we decided to do an ugly sweater contest, and this was a sweater my grandma was wearing all day that my mom took a picture of... haha
