SURPRISE

Our little family is growing by one more! We're pregnant! We are so extremely excited and happy, about this news, and we just couldn't wait to tell our families and friends. I will be uploading some pictures of how we told some of our family members about it, because we did some cute projects, but those will be saved for another post. I was able to tell Ethan the day we got back from San Antonio, and the pure joy that I got to see light up his eyes was unforgettable. 
Here are some answers to the questions I get asked every time: 
Due Date: November 5th
Are we finding out the gender?: Yes <3
Do we have names picked out?: technically we've had names picked out since before we were married... that's never been something we've had a problem with talking about. BUT, I will not post those names on the blog until both Ethan and I have decided on a name, and if we are going to tell people the name, or keep it a surprise for when the baby is born. 
What are we hoping for?: A human would be ideal... lol... who would I be if I didn't make a lame joke every once in a while... We're hoping for what every one else hopes for; a happy healthy baby. We both want a son, and a daughter, so I'd say the odds are greatly in our favor. 
Have I felt sick?: only all day everyday, but hey... I'd say it's pretty worth it... plus I have the most wonderful husband who carries around, both ginger chews, and peppermint mints, in his wallet in case I start to feel nauseous in public. 
I'm so excited about it all, and I already want to set up the nursery, buy baby clothes, and get everything ready!

It's been a while...

Heyo! -
It has been a while since I've updated (sorry to any family members who have been wondering what's going on) I just haven't found the time, these last few weeks. Anyways, not a lot has happened, though the events that have happened have been very exciting for us!
YES! - I started Francis Tuttle in February, and I am LOVING it! It is a self pace course and I'm racing through it as fast as I can so I may be getting my CNA here within a few weeks or months. It can be a challenging course at times, but I have been having fun with it and have had the opportunity to meet some new and interesting people, and make some friends along the way.
ETHAN - has his promotion coming up here in a few weeks!
WE - just got back from San Antonio this last week. We went to see a friend of ours graduate bootcamp and it was a fun trip. The last day we spent there turned out to be a very special day for us (which will be explained in a separate blog post.)
THEN - when we were heading back from Texas our car started making a not-so-great noise, so we brought it in to see what was wrong with it, and found out, the car wasn't going to be much of a car for much longer :'( SO we traded it in for a 2012 Ford Fiesta :D and we are loving it so far.
I DO - have another blog post in the making right now, and will be posting it within the week so be on the look out for it. ;-)
