So a few small things...

One of the things that was weighing on both of us is that our dryer was down. For the ordinary couple this is not a big deal. The only problem is that with me pregnant...heavy lifting is not such a good idea. So I couldn't do laundry anytime-David had to be there. Now it is fixed and I am so relieved! One thing down...a few more to go. David and I also decided on 3 boy names. I had already had 3 girl names picked out before we got married and David liked them so we are sticking with them. It is time to start buying maternity clothes (somewhat excited). It should be an interesting next couple of weeks!

Deep Breath...

These past couple of weeks have been so hard for me. You know those times when everything goes wrong at once and you don't see the end in sight? I know Heavenly Father is trying to teach me something from this, but all at the same time I feel a little irritated. Not only do I have the pregnant hormones raging through, but then I have these frustrating things happening. Have you ever felt like this? On to some better news...we go for our ultrasound on the 28th-a week from Thursday! David is so excited. I have told him that the baby may not cooperate or the ultrasound could be wrong. That happened to a friend of mine...another day, another story. So for those of you who might be wondering we are doing a Disney themed nursery. Disney princesses if it is a girl and Disney heroes if it is a boy. I told a lady I work with today that I am really hoping for a girl because David and I are having a very hard time agreeing on boy names. Not much else going on...just please keep us in your prayers. (Shouldn't we be praying for each other anyway?) :)

Engagement/Wedding Pictures Video

Although some of you may have seen my engagement pictures on Facebook already, they were not put to music and presented in this format. Many of you have awaited the wedding pictures so here they are too! Enjoy!!!

Hello and Welcome!

I really wanted to wait to start this blog until we had a scanner and I could post ultrasound pictures. Hopefully that will happen in the next couple of months so you will get to see baby Lucas in all of his or her glory. Though, for now, I will bring you up to speed. David and I were married in the Oklahoma City Temple on December 14, 2007. The day was dreary and very cold, but a happy one. We had to postpone a honeymoon for a later time and come straight to Kansas. Moving away from the area I had lived for the majority of my life was hard and the first few months were rough. After those first few months were over, the thought of having children was a constant thought on my mind. Finally after a couple of months David and I decided to pray about it. We felt it was time to move forward and start a family. Although apprehensive and worried, I knew that this is what Heavenly Father wanted and that he would provide a way for it to happen. A month after we had made the decision, I found out I was pregnant! Again a little scared and apprehensive, but we kept right on going. We moved out of our little hole in the ground less than a month later and are now living in a two bedroom, two bath apartment. I am 16 weeks along and hopefully will find out the sex of the baby at the end of this month! I told David I think I felt the baby move for the first time yesterday- a little kick. It is amazing and wonderful. Just in case you are wondering, this blog is not going to be strictly about the baby. It is as the title says "Adventures in Sunflower and Baby Land" so enjoy!!
