our ultrasound

Well here are a couple pictures of Elijah Carter in utero. She said baby is still measuring about 6 days smaller than original due date which just means I probably conceived later in my cycle since every ultrasound has been consistant with that. So Original due date: may 20th. but could be as late as the 26th!!! I just wanna hold this little baby. Tayva is so very excited. She is helping me pick out outfits and asked if she gets to feed him sometimes. I still haven't convinced her to change his diaper yet but maybe when he's born it will change!!! (doubt it)

Is it a????????

Well Husband finally caved in and decided he wants to be part of shopping for this little baby and wants to know the gender of our baby. I haven't posted what we are having before because I didnt' want it to get back to him somehow!!! But since he now knows I can tell everyone that we are having a little BOY!!!!

Something to think about!!!

So for those of you who have facebook you probably know by now I had some problems in the beginning of my pregnancy a few weeks ago. Well the other day I was at the hospital with Tayva waiting to get some lab work done for my 12 week appointment and Tayva turns to me out of the blue and said "Mom, I finally figured out why you were bleeding a couple weeks ago" (for those who do not know I started bleeding at about 5 weeks and it lasted about 10 days) Anxious to hear what she had to say I let her continue: You were bleeding so much because the baby was getting lots of bloody noses!!!! Now why couldn't my doctor figure that one out!!!

No- pictures just words

Hey Everyone who reads this I just wanted to let you know that we're expecting!!!! Yippie. My due date is tentatively May 22nd (but that can always change) We are all so very excited.

Funny for the day!!!!!

LADY'S YEARLY EXAM
I went to the doctor for my yearly physical.
The nurse started with certain basics;
"How much do you weigh?" she asked.
"135," I said.
The nurse put me on the scale. It turns out my weight is 180.
The nurse asked, "Your height?"
"5 foot 4," I said.
The nurse checked and saw that I only measure
5' 2"
She then took my blood pressure and told me that it is very high.
"Of course it's high!" I screamed, 'When I came in here I was tall
and slender! Now I'm short and fat!"
She put me on Prozac.

Well I know it's been almost a month since I got married but I wanted to show a couple pic's from my reception. I'm going through all the wedding photo's in texas so it will be a bit longer before I have the actual ceremony posted. These pics were taken by my uncle dean from california.

Getting married........

So here is our wedding announcement that I will be mailing out later this week or so. I don't have very many of your guys' addresses so PLEASE send me your address so you can get one in the mail!!!

The moment I have been waiting for is here..........

Well as several of you know already Emmitt has "popped" the question.. We are going to get married in Texas June 13th and have an open house reception in Cedar June 20th. I know it's coming up quickly and I will get invites out as well but all are welcome to attend either or both events!!!! I went to Texas last week to see Emmitt get babtized. He had an amazing service. The speakers were outstanding and I could really feel the love and support the ward had for him. I'm so excited to be sealed to him in the temple next June!!!

Getting caught up with life.......

Happy Winter Everyone.

So this year I was not able to get christmas cards out since I had a visitor!!!! Some of you are dying to hear about whats going on in my life lately so here it goes. The guy in the picture is Emmitt. We actually met when I lived in Korea years and years ago. He was in the army and I was in high school. Well as the army would have it he got transferred to Oklahoma and my father got transferred to Northern VA. We kept in touch for a while but life took us in seperate directions and we eventually lost touch----until last year. A friend of mine convinced me to get a my space account and within a couple months my best friend from elementary school and Emmitt both found me. He currently lives in Texas. We have been talking on the phone for several months and then he came to visit over Thanksgiving and then again over christmas and new years. Tayva has him wrapped around her finger and in some ways I believe she thinks he came out here specifically for her!!!! I don't know how she does it (maybe it's her big brown eyes) but she managed to get him to play her favorite game "pretty pretty princess" and she also talked him into painting his fingernails and toenails. She was disappointed that he wouldn't wear the polish to church the next morning though!!!!! Thank goodness for nail polish remover!! So as of right now the plan is for him to move out here. I have lived in Texas before and i don't do heat or humidity. His father is in the hospital right now so he will be in Texas at least until things get better for his family out there. And I know everyone is asking if there are wedding plans and to that YES we have talked marriage. He is actually going to start the missionary discussions this week and has a desire to be baptised already so if things are meant to be with us we'll probably tie the knot later this year!!!
