Baby Update

Here are the weekly pictures I have taken since our last update. We love to have these pictures even though I don't love all of them I am glad to have them as a document of our miracle growing.

Being silly in our halfway there picture

Felt our baby kick with my hand right before we got up for the day and had a crazy morning ensue with our car not working and then Brian having to miss our doctor appointment and I went by myself (only 10 lbs gained though).  It was an emotional day for sure.

Still struggling getting every week due to our crazy life. I missed week 23 after we had our credit card stolen, discovered missing money in our health savings account, finding out Brian had a 2nd procedure on a mole that was removed because it was cancerous {luckily the treatment of further skin removal was all that was needed}  now we have another spot that needs to be done and tested, then my grandpa passed away. But the good things that happened in 23 weeks was Brian getting to feel Bugger kick and the family support we had. 

We are excited to do another picture this week and to really push for each week especially since my belly is now growing a lot. Just seeing the one missing week shows me how much it changed in such a short time. I am loving seeing the progression though.

January

I totally lost this month. It just flew right by. I took down Christmas before January even hit which is unheard of for me. I love to keep it up until after New Year's Eve but this year I took it down before just knowing that if I didn't it might never make it down. We enjoyed ringing in January in Wellsville like always with Brian's family. It was so fun to ring in 2015 especially since we were finally in the year our baby was coming!!!
We enjoyed a lot of time playing in January. Again I didn't pull out the camera for everything but we enjoyed a basketball game, time with friends and family, and going to see the ice castles.
I did take pictures at the ice castles. We didn't get a chance to go to them last year and didn't want to miss out this year. So after a fun day of making caramel apples and laughing a lot with family we headed to Orem to go to the ice castles with our friends.
It was amazing!! We are so glad we decided to go and explore these amazing creations. Hopefully we can go again this year. Here are the fun pictures we got of our night there.

Going in the top of the slide, it was quite the tunnel/opening

The single slide. We missed the chance at catching any of us coming down.

Christmas

Wow does time fly!! Brian and I have hardly had time to even think about it. I can't believe how fast time if flying by so time to catch up again.
We had a great Christmas. I didn't pull out the camera very much but we enjoyed lots of time with family. We spent time with Brian's family, my family, and just the two of us between 3 days. It was a lot! With a lot of traveling!! We again love spending the time on Christmas morning as just the two of us. We can't wait to enjoy it as the 3 of us next year.
Overall it was a great holiday and a fun time!!

I am still enjoying my chalk board to document our pregnancy. 

We took a picture of my small belly with a gift tag to share our news with friends.

Some of our goodies that we opened on Christmas morning.

I love a lit up Christmas tree, especially our memory tree. Can't wait to see what ornament/ornaments we get to add to it this next year to remember the year!!
