Precious Moments

Wow! It has been a couple of awesome weekends I must say. Jason and I have been so blessed and we just love getting ready to be parents. I am getting a little anxious for a little guy to get here. Only 8 weeks LEFT!!

Anyways, to tell you about our awesome weekends... Last weekend couldn't have been more perfect. It was amazing to wake up at no time in particular, to be in no place in particular, just enjoying our home and watching my crazy belly move with our active little boy. It was so cute to see Jason get so excited at every movement, and realize that this will be our very first of everything! Our very first little baby kicks, our very first little boy, our very first experience as parents and our very first with everything of the excitement of being parents (if that makes sense)! It is so important to enjoy every single little precious moment that we are given here on earth!

Our Saturday was wonderfully relaxing, and Jason did end up having to work for a little bit, but it was amazing! I actually went and got my hair all chopped off, cleaned like crazy, and had time for a nap. When Jason got home, we decided we needed some ice cream and family to share it with. Even though, it was snowing like crazy, was probably about 7pm when we left our house, we saw tons of accidents and almost got into one, it was so worth it! We went to see my sister and her husband and grabbed some Leatherby's (which is an amazing ice cream place!). We ended up having to crash at their place too (because of the bad roads), so we had more family time... I LOVED IT!

This weekend was pretty spectacular as well, but not quite as relaxing... It kind of actually started on Valentine's Day, the anniversary of making the best decision of our lives... to get married. It marked the day my handsome Jason got down on one knee and asked me to be his forever! So... of course we had to celebrate, and my amazing husband cooked me the most delicious romantic dinner of all time! I helped a little with the surprise of JAZZ tickets....

Friday we had a doctors appointment and got to enjoy seeing our little one again. We are so excited, because although I have not gained a single ounce since last time, Carter is 3 pounds 9 ounces!! He is getting so big and right on track! Our doctor didn't tell me I need to be eating more!! Ha ha. Right after, we had the wonderful surprise of our best friends coming to visit with their little girl. We made dinner together, played some games, and enjoyed having our wonderful friends with us. It was great. Only thing I would change... Jason having to work at 7am on Saturday.

Saturday Jason dropped me off at my sister's house at 6:30 am, where I crashed on the couch and had an entire day filled with sisterly awesomeness. Both of my sisters were here and we were hung out pretty much all day. Jason then kidnapped me for a dinner at The Cheesecake Factory, a baby registry and an adventure with message chairs. It was a pretty magical and very late night :) We were both not very happy when we woke up with sore throats and a really bad cough. That didn't stop us though, because right after church we headed down to Orem for another family dinner. We ate a delicious stew, played some games, and the boys went on a crazy adventure to the frozen Utah lake.

The amazing dinner Jason made for me!

Our dinner date at home on Valentine's Day!

Again we were home later than midnight, Jason had to work at 6 am, and I am stuck at home being sick with my little sister. Thank goodness for President's Day though... I don't think I could have survived at school today.... That has been our life. Now... time for a nap!! :)
