An Extremely Random Story

So, On Tuesday morning I got up bright and early to get ready for work. Well, I love to sleep. After hitting the snooze on the alarm one too many times; I finally got up and had to really hurry to be to work on time. I get all ready, packed my lunch, packed Trevor's lunch, and head out the door. So far it's just a normal work day... Driving with the pedal to the metal cause I'm running late. This is when the story gets interesting... Literally out of nowhere a bird, a BIG STUPID BIRD, flew out in front of my car... no time to swerve... I hit the bird! But it wasn't just a little hit. First it hit my hood, then bounced up and hit my windshield. Well, the worst part of my story... It put some very lovely dents in my hood!!
Seriously??? Who hits a bird and gets a dent in their car?!?! Thinking about it... it's really quite funny, but when I look at my car... It's not funny at all. Check it out...

Here is my lovely hood!

IT'S A BOY

Yesterday, Trevor and I went to the doctor for an ultra-sound... It is such an amazing thing. We were able to see the heart beating, see his stomach, the umbilical cord, his head, his ribs, his... (that's how we know it's a boy!!) and etc. Then we were able to see some 3D and 4D ultra-sound pictures of his face. We saw his eye lids, his mouth, and his nose. It seems more real to me now.
He is growing good, and seems to be healthy.
The doctor confirmed my due date at July 29th! We are really excited to be having a boy!
We started painting the nursery, and today I picked out the crib set and theme for the room. I'm getting so excited doing stuff for the little fella!

Getting Bigger...

Well, I'm starting to show... and I'm slowly getting bigger! The pictures of me are really bad, but you can see that I'm prego. I went to the doctor yesterday, and everything is good. I scheduled my next ultra sound for march 26th. I'm excited to find out the sex, since so many people seem to think it's a girl.

WHAT'S NEW??

CHURCH CALLINGS: Well, I was really surprised when about 2 weeks ago, I was released from sunbeams. I was even more surprised when I was called to be the Young Women Secretary! It is pretty time consuming, but so far I'm really liking it. It is definately not a calling I was expecting... but it'll be great. Trevor is teaching Gospel Essentials. I think he likes it alright. I think he does a very good job teaching.
BABY INFO: Not much new in the baby department. I'm starting to show, but I'm luckily not very big (so everyone says). I already feel fat, so I'm sure I'll be in for a real treat when I'm actually BIG!! I have felt it move some, but not very often. But it was really exciting to feel it move for the first time, I almost cried! Haha. I found that I'm quite emotional lately. As for the gender... still unknown to us.

GOING PRIVATE

Well, the time has come that we have decided to go private. So... If you wish to continue reading our blog, post your email in my comments and I'll invite you! Thanks :)

Surprise

Well... It seems like I don't really need to say much. We have known for quite a while. We went to our very first doctor appointment on Dec. 18, and found that our home pregnancy tests (yep tests. I didn't believe the 1st one, I took 3) were true! We weren't able to get a due date at that point. The doctor thought we were about 6 or 7 weeks. So, we scheduled our next appointment for an ultra-sound on Jan. 29. We did the ultra-sound and to our suprise we were further along than expected! We found out we were 14 weeks and 1 day. We got to hear the hearbeat, and it was amazing. I was excited before, but after seeing the little baby and hearing it's heart beat it seems more real. I'm starting to love it already!!!Trevor, and I are both excited, but I think I'm a little more afraid than he is. We haven't decided yet if we will find out the sex of the baby. Trevor doesn't want to, but I do! If we find out it will be around week 22. So... We'll try to keep ya posted!

FINALLY POSTING

WOW!! Time has gone by so fast. I keep thinking I'll have time to post some pictures and update, but I just haven't had much time. So here is the past few weeks all condensed!
New Years... Well, we didn't do anything for new years eve! We spent the evening at our house just the 2 of us. I don't remember if we even stayed up until midnight or not. We're really party animals!
Christmas... Our first Christmas as Mr and Mrs Gardner, was fabulous. We got up Christmas morning and opened our presents from each other... of course you already know that I got furniture. After that we went to Trevor's family house for Christmas breakfast. We hung out there for most of the morning. Unfortunately I had to work from 1130-430 on Christmas, so I headed for work and Trevor spent the afternoon with his family. After I got home we had dinner with his family and we visited my grandparents and my sisters. It was a good Christmas.
Weekend befor Christmas... All my family came down the weekend before Christmas and we got to spend some time together it was lots of fun. We exchanged gifts and had a big Christmas dinner. It was really great!
