Baby Names

So we are like 5 months away from the baby being born, but hey we understand the importance of a name, in fact the other day I read somewhere that if a boy has a weird first name, he is like 70 percent more likely to end up in a mental hospital. So its important that we choose a semi normal name and one that has a little bit of meaning to it. I thought, "hey let's see what names other people like." So here is a spot where you can add your ideas. Put anything you think is cool, even if its semi weird. My brother Adam said Sandakan, weird, but thats alright, he's on a mission, he doesnt know anything. Haha. But yeah, I'm excited to read your ideas.

And Baby Muffler is...

Well, Andrew won the bet. We are having a BOY!!! We went and had an ultrasound done today and I was so happy because Andrew and my best friend Emily were able to come with me. We are so very excited! I really thought it was a girl but OBVIOUSLY I was wrong. Haha. So the boys have taken it! The ultrasound tech said that it was pretty definite that it was a boy. As she said "he definitely has a little package." Haha. There are more ultrasound pictures to come..I need to rescan them so that they can be big like these. The one on the right is his face (I know he looks alittle scary). As Juno would say, "Im pretty sure it looks like a sea monkey right now, so we'll just let it get a little cuter!" And then the bottom one is the showing that hes a boy! We are absolutely

thrilled. It actually makes me feel like I really am

pregnant now..I mean I don't look pregnant and other than feeling sick don't really have anything else to tell me I am pregnant. Well after the ultrasound, Emily and I went to Old Navy and found the cutest little boy stuff. So we bought some! It is so adorable! Don't worry as soon as I am not working I will upload some more photos for you guys to see!! Love you all!

Dr. Appointment

Well, today I had my check up. Nothing too exciting, just the typical weight, blood pressure, etc. We did get to the hear the heartbeat. It was a nice strong, fast little heartbeat. My doctor didn't measure what the exact heart rate was so I dont know, but it sure sounded pretty fast. I still haven't gained weight. In fact, from last time I was a half a pound lower, but my doctor rounded up so it wouldn't look like I lost weight. She wasn't concerned about this, but she did say I better gain weight by my next appointment which is in 4 weeks.
The most exciting part of the appointment was that I asked her if it is accurate to find out the gender and she said yes! So next Friday, the 18th, we go in first thing in the morning to find out the gender!! Woo hoo!! So far though, everybody is voting its a girl. I think only Andrew and my sister Shannon are thinking its a boy. Although, I do know Ryan is hoping for a boy as well! So, if you haven't already voted, vote now, because in a week we will know if its a girl or a boy! We are so excited!!!

HOCKEY GAME!!

So Friday night we went to the Grizzlies hockey game up at the E-Center in Salt Lake. We went with Emily and Dylan and Aaron and Michelle. It was so much fun! The best part was watching the players beat at eachother. I mean honestly, who doesn't like to see people fight?! (Yes, I even remembered my glasses so I could actually see what was going on).

Baby On The Way

Well, as many of you know but many of you may not know, I am pregnant! Yes, it is true, there is a little Muffler on the way. I am 14 weeks along (as of today) and I think that I am past all the sickness! Woohoo! We will be able to find out in two weeks if its a girl or a boy (I think its a girl, Andrew has no clue and my younger sister is convinced its a boy). But, as a couple of you have already seen, we put a poll up so you can make your choice. Its open until Oct 3 because by then I should have had the baby (Im due Oct. 1st, the day before my birthday, random huh?). So anyways, go ahead take a pick and we will see in a couple weeks!

My Cousin seeking Her true loves Kiss!

Now many of you have seen the movie Enchated, which can I say is AMAZING. Anyways, back to the real point of this post. What many of you don't know is that the Princess Giselle is really our cousin Carmen. Now, just look at the two pictures below and I think you can agree that there are uncanny similarities. For instance, red hair, fair skin, beautiful singers and both looking for their true love's kiss!

CARMEN















GISELLE














Carmen even sings for her animal friends, although they don't come as rapidly as in the movie (or at all). And hopefully our fun cousin Carmen will soon come and visit Utah...it'd be even greater if she moved here (hint hint Carmen! Love ya!)

Our Life in Review (kind of)

Andrew's 24th birthday. By the way, the cake was completely homemade...it was an ice cream cake. Andrew asked me to make him one, so of course being the great wife that I am, I did!

This was fairly recent. We went to one of our favorite restaurants, Texas Roadhouse, they have THE YUMMIEST rolls and cinnamon butter. I know, Cinnamon butter sounds kind of weird, but it really is good! Take my word for it!

Happy New Years! We went over to Emily's parents' house and played guitar hero for like 10 hours. Okay so maybe it really wasnt that long, but we did play for quite awhile. We had a lot of fun.

Blogging Begins!

Due to the constant pressure of my friend who will go unamed (for now) I have succumed to the pressure of establishing a blog. So now, all of you wonderful people can be more connected to our life (especially since it is oh so exciting)! I hope you guys are excited!

So, now you can look forward to occasional updates. Yeah, but don't expect TOO much out of me, I'm not going to be obssesive cumpulsive (just ocd- so says Andrew).
