So Much To Tell

Well, well. I have so much to tell and limited space to tell it. I have been horrible about getting on and it is because I am a horrible secret keeper. So, I never wrote on the blog for fear of spilling my pregnancy news before I had even seen the doctor. Well, we went last week and all is well with the little baby. It was awesome to see the little one moving around with its little arms and legs. I am almost 12 weeks along. And yes, if you do the math, that means that 'new baby' is due 2 days before Kaylee's 2nd birthday. It will be fun.

July 4th was fun. We spent time with both sides of the family. We saw the Murray Parade, enjoyed the outdoors (especially Kaylee) up American Fork Canyon, and watched and did fireworks (not Kaylee's favorite). It was great to see my parents who were up for the week.

I also had my birthday last week (July 2). I turned 27 and now feel like I am nearing 30 with my greater speed than anticipated. It was a wonderful day. Clayton took me to the movies and out to dinner and surprised my with having cake with my family the next day. I also bought new clothes to fit over my expanding belly. But I'm not really that big yet, so a tummy picture is not warranted. I just feel huge cause of stretching.

And the week before, Clayton and I got a well-deserved vacation in San Francisco. Clayton had a training in San Francisco and I went along for fun. My great parents came up and took care of Kaylee for the week. We definitely missed Kaylee, but had tons of fun. We wrote the cable cars, went on a sightseeing cruise, visited museums, saw the Golden Gate Bridge, and ate at fun places. We won cheap tickets at the Wicked Lottery, watched the seals at Pier 39, and visited the Aquarium. In addition to all the fun, I got to take long naps and really rest.

Overall, we have had tons of fun, and here are a few pictures of San Francisco and my yummy cake to prove that it all happened.

I knew it! Yup, I knew it. It's just been my experience that when my friends take forever to leave a post on their blogs, it's because they're pregnant. But congrats! That's so exciting!
