30 weeks!!

I really can't believe how fast this pregnancy has gone!! I only have a little less than 10 weeks to go and I'm getting very anxious. I feel like there is lots of do before he gets here; especially with our new home. Other than that, I've felt very good. Lea definitely keeps me busy. We are trying to talk to her a lot about being a big sister. She knows that I have a baby growing in my belly. She kisses it and touches it, but other than that I don't think she really has a full comprehension of what is going to happen. We got her some "Big Sister" books, put she rather read other ones... She'll get it eventually!!

Home!!!

We put an offer on a home and after going back and forth a few times,  it was accepted!!! The closing date is June 25th. We are so excited!! Jason and I are truly grateful for his parents and how much they have helped us through this process. The home is exactly what we wanted. It has 3 bedrooms, 2 bath, and a separate family and living room (That's something that I really wanted). Yesterday, we had the inspection and I was able to take some pictures of the inside of the home. There is some work that needs to be done to the inside and outside, but we are really excited to make it our own. Here is a sneak peak of the Home!-- Some picture might be blurry.

The Home sits on a flag lot, so there is lots of privacy

Our Portland Adventure

After visiting Seattle we came to the conclusion that there are lots of things to do in the city. We have always been in the suburbs and haven't really explore the city of Portland at all. A few weeks ago, we decided that it was time to check out Portland. We decided to go to the Ira Keller fountain and also to the Crystal Springs Garden. It was a very hot day and we had lots of Fun. We invited my little sister, Keally and Lea really enjoyed her company. 

We truly enjoyed our adventure and we can't wait to explore more. 

A trip to Seattle

Last weekend we went to Seattle to visit some friends. It is such a beautiful place! We were able to have a wonderful dinner at Chelsea and Alex's parent's home. They were very sweet to us and let us spend the night in their new home. We have known Chelsea and Alex since our first semester married in Rexburg and we have become very good friends with them. We had a great time catching up with them since our move.We had a great weekend full of adventures and memories while visiting with Chelsea, Alex and their baby Eli and also Mike and Mandy. 

Mike and Mandy recently moved to Seattle and they were very generous to show us around town. Mike was Jason's MTC mission companion and Mandy is his sweet wife. We had so much on our little adventure with them exploring Seattle and seeing all the fun things there are to do around!

3 years

We celebrated 3 years of being married on the 16th. Time has just gone by so fast! I couldn't have asked for a better husband. Jason is everything that I wanted and more. I'm happier when I am around him and I love how he makes me laugh every second that we are together. I love our little family and how great he is with Lea. This past three years have been full of new experiences and I can't wait to spend eternity with him. 

These are the beautiful flowers he got me!

Happy girl!

I'm done with school! I couldn't be happier. I love being able to spend my time with Lea. I love watching her grow and learn every day. Lately, she has been talking a lot. She can completely understand everything that we are saying. She probably knows aver 100+ words.Her new words as of yesterday are shirt and chips and as you can think, they do not always sound like that.  

Lea is a big explore and loves to go outside. We try to spend time outside, but some days are still too cold. 

When I was in school, it was really hard for me to take pictures of her, but now I can't stop. She is just beautiful!!!

Easter

Easter was a few weeks ago, but I had lots of pictures to share. We started our Sunday with an Easter egg hunt for lea. She loved it! We then headed to church and had wonderful lessons about the atonement of Christ and that He is Risen.

After church we went over to my parents. The Easter Bunny also left some treats for us there! This year it was just my brother's family, my parents, Keally and our family. My sister could not make it  and we really missed her and her family.  All the kids had so much looking for their eggs! The Kids were also able to decorate cookies. Lea didn't really know what she was supposed to be doing, so we did it for her. Instead she just ran around the house eating the frosting.
