Update

So it's been awhile since I last posted and in that time A LOT has changed for us.  On Nov. 21st we found out we were going to be parents!  What WONDERFUL NEWS & what a GREAT Birthday present for Brett (his is on Nov. 22nd)

We were so excited to find out that God had blessed us with a little one that we will meet around July 31st. 

Fast forward 5 months and here we are anticipating the birth of our little girl!  We just finished assembling the baby crib, dresser, and changing table today...whew what a job!  Glad that's over..now it's on to the fun stuff of decorating.  I wish we could decide on a name so that I could get the little block letters and put her name on the wall..but I guess we'll know sooner or later.  We have her name narrowed to a few names, which we're going to keep a secret until she's born. 
I was very lucky to have had such a WONDERFUL pregnancy thus far; i haven't once been sick or had any problems and I'm just starting to show.  I've been told that I'm lucky, and I think it has a lot to do with my continual exercise that i've been able to maintain.  I've gotten the clearance to continue my normal exercise routine until I can no longer do it which shouldn't be until right around mid July or so I've been told.  I'm careful to listen to my body and not always give it 100% when working out and I've invested in a heart rate monitor which has been awesome to keep in check with my heart rate.

Other than that exciting news not much is happening.  Brett's cousin Brad, friend Kellie, brother Shane, Shane's gf Paige, and Brett's friend Shane came out to visit us a couple of weeks ago which was a lot of fun!  We always have fun when visitors come..ALL ARE WELCOME ANYTIME! 
Brett goes back to Iowa to help calf on March 24th thru April 3rd, my dad will be coming back with him and staying with us for a few days..we're excited for him to finally see our house!

I'm looking forward to my friend Courtney coming for the weekend while Brett is gone, and then my next big adventure will be back to Iowa in June for Jordan's wedding!  I CAN'T WAIT to be reunited w/ my girlies..:)

We hope everyone is doing well and I'll try to keep this updated more regularly:)
