We are having a BABY!

 It has taken a long time to get to this point. We had been trying to get pregnant for 18 months. About 8 months ago I switched doctors and went to an infertility specialist. We love our doctor! He was able to find a couple of reasons why I wasn't getting pregnant. We went and saw him on a regular basis and he always gave us lots of hope. In July I had surgery to clean out any endometriosis that I might have. In August I went to the doctors and left a little disappointed because even after the surgery it was looking like my body still wasn't working right. My doctor then set up an appointment in September to go over some fertility treatment options and to start one. I was really worried about all the treatments he had mentioned. As our appointment was getting closer I still hadn't had a period. This is pretty normal for me so I didn't think anything about it. My doctor told me to take a pregnancy test before I came in just in case. I took the first test and didn't even look at it I figured it was negative. After the 3 min I decided I should probably go look at it and it was POSITIVE! I couldn't believe it so I took another one and that one was also positive. I was so surprised!!! When Jeff got home from work he was also surprised and of course so happy!

We feel so blessed! Our prayers were answered in the best way! We are so happy and so excited. My doctor really is the best and he was very excited for us. At our first appointment we were able to hear the heart beat. It was amazing!Our baby is due on May 25, a day before Jeff's birthday.






Vacation!

I'm still playing catch up with my blog. Back in August we took a trip to St. George with Jeff's family. It was lots of fun. We went to the Tuacahn theater to see Aladdin.  I love the Tuacahn. The scenery is breath taking and they do an amazing job with their musicals. They had live camels on stage! They even had a magic carpet that went over the audience. It's awesome!



We also went to a Dinosaur museum that was in St. George. Jeff was very excited to go to the museum. We saw lots of cool Dinosaur foot prints and skeletons.




One of the days we decided to drive to Las Vegas. We went to M&M factory and the Coke factory. These are my favorite places to go in Vegas. I think everything else is scary! ;) For lunch we went to Rain Forest Cafe. The scenery at Rain Forest is awesome but the food isn't that great. We also caught a fountain show at the Bellagio. That was cool to watch. Jeff and I have never gambled before so we decided to try our luck at the slot machines. We had been saving $4 just for gambling. We each got to gamble $2. Jeff didn't win anything and I won $6 but then my brother in law Bryce decided to gamble the $6 dollars for me. He lost the $6! It was a fun experience but I don't think I will ever do it again.
