Life is a little different since September :)


Lots has happened since the last post we had in September! Here is some of the things we have been up to.....
-Kevin has been going to school and studying graphic design. He loves creating new things. He is taking this summer semester off and working full time as a graphic designer up on campus and loves it.

-Thanksgiving we spent in Rexburg and got to share the holiday with my good friend Kelsey, her fiance Dirk and our good friend Ben. I successfully cooked my first turkey and it was so yummy! We got to go around the table and say all the things we were thankful for. Kevin and I are so blessed and we couldn't be happier!

-For Christmas we also got to spend the holiday in Rexburg. We wished we could have been with family but for our first Christmas together it couldn't have been more fun. We got a little tree and decorated it and our apartment. Watched all the Christmas movies we could find. Wrapped lots of presents. On Christmas Eve we went down below our apartment to a game place and got to play lots of fun arcade games. Then Christmas Eve night we watched Christmas movies, read a Christmas book from my mom and made a nativity out of play dough. We had lots of fun Christmas day and got to open fun presents and talk to all of our families...it was a very fun day!

-We moved into a new apartment a few weeks ago that is a lot bigger than our old one and we love it! Once we get everything finished and decorated I will take some pictures of it and show you. We finally don't have to walk up 5 million stairs to get to our apartment and park 2 blocks away. And we live right next to a big park which is fun to take walks around. We live in a normal neighborhood which is fun too (we almost feel like real adults! haha!). 

-And our most important news of our lives is the cute baby girl Finley Sue that is due the 4th of July!! We are so excited that she is coming and can't wait to meet her. My pregnancy hasn't been the most fun time of my life and I was really sick for about the first 5 months and still every now and then have a sick day. I'm so glad that I have Kevin to take care of me whenever I've been sick. I decided the other day that he gets the amazing husband award for the next....forever...because he does anything and everything for me. He's been a trooper. He's always is telling me he wants Finley to come now. He's going to be such a good dad. 

-So now I'm almost 31 weeks pregnant and I can't believe it! I can't believe how soon Finley will be here! I look like I'm smuggling a basketball. Getting off the couch and rolling over in bed has become quite the task! Miss Finley thinks it's so much fun to kick my ribs (not fun!). Maybe she'll be good at clogging?? I have a really short torso so she doesn't have much room to grow anymore. My stomach is going to keep poking farther and farther out.  Hopefully the next few weeks till Finley gets here go by fast!! 

-Hopefully that updates you a bit on what we've been up to! And hopefully I do MUCH better at keeping this blog updated!!
