13 weeks!

13 weeks means 2nd Trimester!!!

I'm so excited it's finally here...maybe the morning sickness will stop now!

Everything is Good, no complaints!

I have a doctor's appt today...I wrote down a list of questions I want to ask....

If it's a Boy..we are really torn between

Bradyn

(which has always been a top Fav)

or Dawson....

What do you think??

What I feel

LONELY :(

I don't know if any of you get like this when you're pregnant.....BUT...i sure feel like it...

I think to myself- it's bound to happen...I live far away from people..

Big reason I begin to feel this way is living in St. George...and we don't really hang out with anyone...To be honest, haven't felt a Drive to...feel like I'm missing out on things up North...

Which is HUGE for me, always been the social butterfly...always always

That's why it's such a big deal...i take it harder than most, I think

I feel work keeps me pretty occupied...just some moments...when I have enough time to think about it....I begin to feel just kinda Alone. Maybe it's Just a pregnancy thing...who knows??

Sucks living far away, but at the same time love that we are a vacation home for people to travel to...and I know this is where we need to be...and have been given so many great opportunitions...me working @ The biggest Loser resort (which is the Ultimate Dream for me...still pinch myself each time I go there) And Steve close to graduating this November with such a great Job as he'll be able to continue specializing and will support us beyond what I could have imagined...:)

sigh

i dunno...guess i got to just put things in perspective...that this is the best place for us. But still wish often times I could just say Hey, gonna hang out with so and so...or do this or this with so and so.....

sigh

Thanks goodness for FB and Blogs :)

but at the same time find it humerous most of us can't just keep in touch with good ol fashioned phone calls, ya know? I myself am guilty of that.

thoughts, please...let's me know you care :)

10 Weeks

So I want to go about this Pregnancy differently than last. What I mean by that is--with Peyton I was so sad I was pregnant, bawled everyday till I was about 3 mos along (since he was a honeymoon baby) I never took any pictures of me pregnant...never wrote a journal about anything Cool. And my friend, Erin inspired me--through out her pregnancy she not only Blogged like crazy..maybe like once or twice a month and also provided a lot of pregnancy pictures....So..i want to do just that...BUT i'm not totally convinced on the pregnancy pictures part. I just think I look like a huge godzilla ready to attack people (even though I didn't get that big with Peyton- a whole whopping 21 lbs.) But the idea of taking a lot of pictures does sound like fun. I already feel this pregnancy is different since we Planned for it...And also the fact I experienced a Miscarriage..more reason to cherish and hold it more as value.

In the mail I just received our 2009 blog book and 2010 blog book. And I love them! Love the concept of it all...and thought this is totally like Journaling..and when you go through with it and buy the books you have to keep Forever. So I think that gives me even more motivation to treat this Pregnancy better. Here it Goes-

Today I turned 10 weeks. No morning Sickness....the Girls are still way sore still ha ha.. Steve likes to hear me complain about them....guys are so weird...sorry little TMI

Hmmm.... went to my first appt and saw/heard the heart beat. Everything looks good! There is always the thoughts of miscarriage in my mind...Everytime i go to the bathroom i look in to see if it's red... Can't live in fear though, right? Steve & I picked out our rooms.

So yeah...how did i do??

I'll try to be more thorough later on the process....so I guess I'll do another update in a month? Yeah, I'll go with that.

Give me any feedback on what information you think would be valuable to include that I'll want in the future to look back on.

Baby Taylor's Room

New baby will get Peyton's room and this will be Peyton's new room

Called to Serve

My Brother, Parker in New Zealand

Parker's Favorite Nephew..Peyton

Steve in Canada

Me in Georgia

LOVE the Blessings of serving a mission. I remember coming home from my mission and wondering about all the differences I would feel in my life from serving...it's moments like these where I take a moment to really reflect and the blessings are so apparent and real. My life is completley different from serving a mission. It has made me who I am today...I'm so happy for all the different levels Steve & I are able to relate to one another...grateful for all the late night talks I get to have with my husband of so many special spiritual moments on the mission and to connect on such a different level. Grateful for both parents who served. I hope for all my children to Serve. And love to hear from Parker often...

Yay for Missionary Work!

Baby

So my 1st apoointment wasn't till Tuesday....but this morning I was kinda wiggin out because I realized I have zero morning sickness..and I felt like something must be wrong since I just didn't feel sick at all anymore...so being the anal person I am, I called in and they had me come in today. And things look Great! The baby was moving around and got to see/hear the heart beat. I am exactly 9 weeks along and due on our Anniversary ~

August 19, 2011.

Guess you don't need to be Sick to be prego ha ha.. We're excited!

Merry Christmas- I'm Pregnant!

Peyton is going to be a Big Brother! So many of you know I had a miscarriage beginning of November. And found out few weeks later that I was pregnant again....doctor had me come in for an ultrasound and took blood tests...and everything looks great. Research has shown it's uncommon to have 2 mis carriages so close back to back like that...so we feel confident things will go well. Also, it seems this is really meant to be. Plus it's Christmas! Best time to annouce it! I'm any where from 5-7 weeks along. I'll find out more on my next appt on Jan 18th. YAY!

Peyton's Christmas Present!!

DISNEY LAND!!!

You think he'll like it?!? I know he's a little on the young side....BUT...this trip is mainly for Steve & I. My parents are coming with us to be our little baby sitters! Plus, what grandparents wouldn't want to be there for their grandchild's first experience at Disney..? :) WOOT! I'm excited!
