Still waiting...

So I haven't posted anything lately because I don't really have any new news about anything.  I felt that the only thing I was blogging about was how terrible I was feeling.  So I decided to take a break and just wait, and blog when something exciting happened.  It seemed that blogging each day was just making everyday slower. So I'm  Still waiting  for something significant like feeling the baby move or not feeling sick anymore. :)

This Wed. will mark week 12.  There are many good things that happen once I get through week 12.  Morning sickness should subside, the start of the 2nd trimester, and the big one is the miscarriage percentage drops significantly after this point.  These things will be such a relief to me.  I am ready to feel more normal, be happy, and less worried.

The little bean!

Well we saw our little baby today! It's 1.77 cm long. We even heard the heartbeat! It was magical! Made me cry!

This made me happy...

This morning I woke up to my cute hisband's face. :) After asking me how I slept, he said with excitement, "I had a dream about our baby!" It made me so happy inside to know that he is having baby dreams too!! In his dream it was a girl! Yay a Dune baby.

Today is a big day! We have our first doctors appointment! We're in Matt's home town, which is also where my dad's family started too! We are hoping for an ultrasound today! I really really want one. Just to make this all real!!!

News to come later after the appointment that is in 45 minutes!!! Ahhhhhhh! I feel like I'm going to Disneyland! But it's better!

A pick me up

Elder Holland is one of my most favorite speakers! This video has always touched my heart.  Especially now with the baby on the way.  He gives such words of encouragement when the world seems to have such daunting pressure on women and our worldly roles.  We are special.  Our Heavenly Father created women to nurture and care for our children.  I know that this is what I am supposed to be doing.  Motherhood will bring me the greatest joy and happiness.  I know that my Savior died for me and that the atonement is real.  I am so blessed to be a member of this extraordinary church. 

Crazy dreams!!

The past few times I have slept I have had the most crazy and random pregnancy dreams!! One of them we had twins a boy and a girl! Pretty random.  Then other sad ones that just stress me out! I won't share them.

Today we have told lots of people about our good news. :) It is fun to tell the people that we know in town who have watched Matt and I from the very beginning.  It makes us happy.  Our singles ward bishop's wife (talk about a mouth full) was one of the people who we got to tell today! So that was fun!

All is well, just hungry waiting for dinner to be done cooking! Wahoo!

The start of the bump 

Here is the start of the bump! 

In the back ground of the picture you can see Dr. Derek Shepard 

from Grey's Anatomy! Just something I do to pass the time on the couch.

A special thanks!!

The Man

I have the BEST HUSBAND IN THE WORLD! Today I have wanted to scream from the roof tops about how much I appreciate my man.  He does so much for me each and everyday.
Everyday he does everything for me!
cleans all the rooms of the house
cooks
laundry 
feeds me
cuddles me
deals with me 
helps me 
comforts me
fixes the washer and dryer
holds me 
says sweet things to me 
understanding 
and hundreds of other great things!

I am so glad he is going to be the baby daddy! He is going to do such a fantastic job as a dad.  I can't wait to see him and our wee one together for the first time.  I look forward to it every single day as a sit and think about the future of our tiny family! 

Life is good!!! I am SOOO blessed! 

Thank you honey for being mine, and for taking care of me at my every beck and many calls.
