TATER TOT!!

Our little Tater Tot!!
     Isn't that the most perfect picture ever.  This is our little boy and we can't wait to meet him.  He will be showing his face at the beginning of September.  We are so excited to finally be parents.  It has been what feels like to us a long hard road, but all of the things we have gone through is so worth it to see this little boy continue to grow and bless our lives.  I have been so lucky.  I haven't been sick at all, not one bit with this little guy which kinda scared me at first but now I am just grateful.  I can feel him move and kick more and more now which is the most wonderful thing.  I always feel silly when I get a little grin on my face when I feel him move and no one around me has a clue what is going on inside me.  He is perfect and we love him so much.  Heavenly Father truly has great timing.  Way better then we were planning and hoping for but it has now aloud me to finish school and get to spend a year with him before I have to start school again if I choose to do so, which I most likely will.  Being in Nursing school and study and learning about all the possible things that can go wrong with a pregnancy and with a child has me scared senseless but also makes me realize how miraculous this little miracle is to have made it this far.  As you can see we are pretty dang excited.  I have to say my favorite part was getting to share in the joy of feeling him move with Jordan.  Seeing Jordan feel him move for the first time was the best thing ever.  He was so happy and I was so happy and it sure felt like our little boy was so happy.  We are going to be a family which is so exciting. We have yet to come up with any names yet.  It is the hardest part!!  We think of names but nothing has sounded good AT ALL so far.  We just keep hoping that we can find one before he comes.  Tater tot and little bean is about all anyone has come up with.



     Emery did some pictures for us to help announce what we were having!!  She did a great job, just like she always does!!

     It is the craziest thing to feel a little baby moving and growing inside you.  The other morning as I woke up and was just laying in bed for a little bit he kicked me in my side, which was a first.  I started laughing out loud because it almost tickled and it was just so funny to me.  The other night as Jordan and I were going to sleep he kicked me again and it scared me and I jumped.  Jordan laughed at me that time.  It is just an amazing feeling.  He just moves around so much and is super active!!  I just know I am going to have my hands full.  I can't wait to see what he looks like.  We have no idea what hair color he will have.  The boy has endless possibilities.  I have brown hair, Jordan had blonde hair at one point, Jordan's grandma has red hair, our mom's both have really dark hair.  So really it could be any color.
     Sometimes I get super scared to think that in only 3 months I could be a mom, but I also get super excited about the thought.  I am just glad Jordan and I get to figure out this parenting thing together.  It is going to be one of the most adventurous journeys ever!!
