Exciting News!!!

Hello all of you out in blogger land!


It has been awhile since my last blog, and there is lots to catch up on! As many of you know, we moved to Burley in May, and for those of you who have been asking for our address it is 1518 Overland Ave., Burley, ID 83318. Right now we are renting this cute little older home and we are having fun and getting to know our new ward. Here are some pictures of our cute little home:


It's a fun little home. Oh, for those of you wondering about the lady from our last blog, we won in court and she has paid us back our deposit. I had to pierce my lips together to stop myself from arguing, because there were some major whoppers they told in court! But, we won and I am glad that is over with.
I got a new job. I am a teller for Zions Bank. It's pretty fun and I like the people that I work with. It's nice because when I leave, I don't have work on my mind, I can just go home and not worry about people, that I need to get this and this done, it's pretty cushy.
I was going to get a teaching job for the upcoming school year, but it doesn't seem to be the right time. Mainly because..... I'M PREGNANT!!!!! We are so dang excited! It has been almost 2 years of trying, and I had almost given up and was going to make an appointment, to see if we could get some help. It was kind of a "surprise." My feet were swelling really bad, and I thought it was because of my new job, where I had to stand on my feet all day, and it was hot, so I thought it was because of that. Mark, on the other hand, said, I think it's because you're pregnant. I didn't feel any different so I just laughed at the notion. But he persisted, so I told him that if he thought I was then he needed to get me a pregnancy test. Well, that night he came home with, yup, a pregnancy test.
My body has been out of wack for about 2 years, so going a couple months without a cycle, was starting to become a norm, which I though was the case here. Mark was outside, and I went and took the test. As I wasn't expecting anything (as many tests have said no) I had to pick my jaw up off the floor when I saw "pregnant" written in the little window. I couldn't believe it! So, I set the test on the counter and went about doing things around the house. Mark came in, saw the test, and leaned over. He did a double take, and then looked at me with a big grin on his face. Needless to say, with so many negative results, I took another test the next day and was elated to get the same result! So I made a doctor's appointment, and guess what, I'm still pregnant! :-)
So that is our way exciting news! We can't wait for the baby. Since I had no idea how far along I could be the doctor did an ultrasound and there was a little baby in there! I almost started crying I was so happy! I am about 2 months along and due on February 20th. I've even started to make some things for the baby! I'm so excited!
Anyway, we hope that everyone is doing well and that you are happy, as we are deleriously happy here!
