5 years down, Happily ever after to go...


So Friday was our 5 year anniversary. It has gone by so fast, but at the same time feels like I have know Shawn my whole life. I can honestly say without a doubt that he is my best friend, and I cant imagine where I would be without him. I am so greatful to have found someone as wonderful as he is, and even more greatful that he has chosen to spend the rest of forever with me!! Its so crazy that we are so much alike, and have the same thoughts and views on life. Even though he isn't much of a talker, he is so fun to have late night talks with, and I have to say, he is really good at making me laugh.
I love this wedding pic of us, but unfortunately, none of our wedding pics were digital, so this turned out fuzzy from the scanner.

Here's to Eternity, and all the bumps along the way!!!! I love your stinking guts honey!!

The best things in life are worth waiting for....

That's right, you guessed it!!!!! WE ARE FINALLY HAVING A BABY!!! After 3 long years, 4 doctors, and too many prayers to count, we are finally past our first trimester!!!

I found out I was pregnant on June 6, and only after 4 tests did it actually sink in. I was so afraid of letting myself get worked up again, that we didn't really tell anyone for awhile. I switched doctors again, and something is just right this time I suppose.

I have for sure learned patience, and that all things come in time, but I have to say, every week that goes by I am so greatful!!!

As of today I am officially 15 weeks, and that puts our due date on February 14, 2010!! That's right folks, a Valentines baby!! My only concern is that I am seeing a doctor in Blackfoot, and I am terrified that I am going to go into labor in the middle of a snowstorm and be like all the crazy women in my family and have a baby in 2 hours flat. Can you just picture Shawn trying to deliver a baby in the jeep (cause "it will buck drifts ya know!") on I-15 somewhere in between our house and Blackfoot!?!

And for those of you that know my besty Leslie, she and Travis are also having a baby, and we have the SAME due date!!!!!! We are both going to Bingham, and I am so thankful that we are doing this together!!! Its been such a comfort that she is going through the same things at the same times as I am. Its true what they say, "Everything happens for a reason." I guess our babies were meant to come to Earth together.

Shawn's sister Mindy is kind enough to deal with my constant questions and concerns, and I am so lucky to have her around. She has been doing my ultra sounds for me, and I know as scared as she has been to do them for me, I wouldn't have it any other way. She took these amazing shots for us, and I hope you get as big of a kick out of them as we did!! In these shots I am only 12 weeks 5 days, so you can see that the little munchkin is growing like crazy!!
