OUR BABY GIRL!

2009-07-13T14:57:00.000-07:00

We are having a baby girl!!

This picture is of her bum. the arrow is between her legs pointing at her private part.

Side profile with her arm by her face.
An attempt at a 3D picture... you can see her right eye and her open mouth... at the bottom of the orange blob...

We are so happy to know our baby is healthy and growing strong. (since i still haven't felt any movement, i was scared there would be no baby in me and the dr. would tell me i was just getting fat). Our new due date according to the ultra sound is December 1st!

1 Year

Here's an update on the lives of us...

The baby is cooking pretty well. I feel like I'm very paranoid about everything I do. I always wonder, are these pains in my stomach normal? Is it normal for my stomach to hurt if I stretch it? I don't know if I can really avoid sleeping on my back at night, but I try... I just don't know!! Anyways, we have our next Dr. on the 15th and hopefully we will be scheduling our ultrasound to find out what we are having!

School...
There are only 6 more days of school left in the Spring term. THEN I'M DONE WITH COLLEGE!!!!!!! Nate, on the other hand, still has 6 days and then another 6 more weeks till he is done. We are very very excited to move on, get to Mesa and start our cute little family!

Nate volunteers with 4H... not too sure what it stands for... Last weekend they had a luau! It made me miss Hawaii a lot and all the sunshine and the ocean... Anyways, we were in charge of the bowling station and had a ton of fun! We were all decked out hard core...

We're having a baby!!!

2009-05-07T07:58:00.001-07:00

This is our baby so far!!! 10 weeks and 2 days. It may look like a massive nose, but...... it's the baby's arms. We are SOOOoooooooOOOO excited!!!!!

VEGAS!!

2009-05-05T11:24:00.000-07:00

Since Nate is going to be in school June 28th, we decided to have our 1 year anniversary a little early. SoooOOOooooOOOoooooooooOOOOOOOOO.... WE WENT TO VEGAS!!! We stayed at the South Point hotel which was about 2 miles south of the strip. It was AMAZING! We got a coupon book when we checked in for some free meals, free souvenir from the gift shop, free popcorn, free bowling, etc. We had a HUGE movie theater on the top floor of our hotel AND a 36 lane bowling ally. And this here... was our cute hotel room.
Nate really wanted to go to the aquarium so... we went.

We saw sharks...
a huge octopus...
We got to pet a manaray...
They are really slimy
We saw some cool looking fish...
And we are so stinken cute...
Then... we went to the movie theater at our hotel and saw 17 again. and we were the only people in the entire theater...
So... naturally, we had some fun.
We then went bowling... it was $1 a game after midnight so we stayed up till about 2 am bowling. Nate won... but not by much...
Perfect form.
This at the miracle mile. We thought we were cool for taking this picture that looks like we are outside, in the middle of the afternoon, when we were actually inside at like 9 at night.
We took lots of pictures.
When it's just the two of us, there are not too many poses we can choose from for pictures.
We watched the water show, and fell in love all over again...
It was beautiful.

We got some smoothies and found this awesome wall..
My husband is so stinken cute!!!

So that is our photo montage of our trip to Vegas. Since then... we have started Spring term. MY LAST 6 WEEKS OF SCHOOL EVER!!!!!!!! We went to the Dr. to hear the heart beat of our little fetus, but they couldn't find it, SO... I am going in for an ultrasound this week to make sure everything is ok. Now that we are in school again... our lives are boring again.

Winter semester is OVER!!!!! WAAAAHOOO!!!! well, only a few more finals, then it's over for good. My cute husband got me this beautiful flower for Easter because he lovvves me :)

Over the Easter weekend, we went to Lydia's house to decorate eggs and have a little pin the puff on the bunny contest... (lyida won). We had our own little Easter celebration which consisted of small baskets full of candy and 6 eggs hidden. very well.

On Easter Sunday, Nate and I helped Owen propose to Alyssa. We hiked the Y for the first and only time. If it weren't for Owen wanting to propose up there, Nate and I probably never would have hiked that bloody mountain. Straight up THE ENTIRE time... Nothing really to look at while your walking... but when you get to the top, it's pretty nice to see everything in Provo.

We hid in some non-bushy bushes and took some pictures of all the action... they are so cute!

Now... my big brother is getting married! And I can't wait!!!
While Nate and I stay in Provo to finish up the last bit of school, Owen, Alyssa, Lydia, Dan, Kaitlyn and Makenzie are all leaving!!! It makes me so sad... We will miss them a lot...

Oh College

2009-03-25T12:54:00.000-07:00

Since my life is SO exciting and Nate and I are doing so much with our cute newlywed-selves, I thought I'd share a few of the luxuries we have as cute little college kids...

This is our book shelf that Nate put together from WalMart. As you see, on the left side there is a white little rectangle. That my friends... is our thermostat. Nate every so craftily cut out a perfect slot that is easy to reach and very accessible... but never gets used...

Through the bitter cold of Utah winter, this has been our means of heat. We do not turn on the heat... or the air... as our utility bill would be ridiculously high.

This cute little thing is the only storage space we have.

You might be asking yourself, "why in the world is there a picture of such a gross toilet on such a cute blog?" well, as we continue the tour through our cute little appartment luxuries, this one could not be overlooked. As you can see, our toilet has aged beautifully over the last 20 or so years... not only does it have this rustic look on the inside, but you have to hold the flusher down for 15-20 seconds if you want your potty to go all the way down.

You might recall from a few posts back my ranting and raving about "this awesome dresser we got from DI for $12!", well look at it now. Not so great anymore with no top drawer...

It is so much fun being married and living in this cute little appartment with Nate. We have been very comfortable here despite the fact we dont have dishwasher, or washer and dryer (Lydia is kind enough to let us bring our mountin of laundry over whenver we need to)... But with all the money we saved on our utility bill (along with a few side jobs of babysitting and teaching some dirty dancing)... we got ourselves something to make our appartment just a little bit better.

2009-01-06T11:59:00.001-08:00

I thought it would be appropriate if I showed the world how excited our lives are as a cute married couple... This is the start of our birthday/Christmas adventure...
We made visors to wear while we were at Disneyland, just in case we got separated for some reason and had to quickly locate each other....
We ended up not wearing them. And this was the only picture we have with us in those beautiful visors...
So our flight was delayed multiple times so we decided to get on a different flight, which resulted in our only bag of clothes and toiletries getting lost. So this is what Delta gave us to accommodate for the inconvenience.
Since we had no clothes, and the sweat shirt i had on was quite thin, we went to the gift shop and picked up this little number....
Hott... I know... So, we walked to Disneyland from our hotel which was right around the corner and when we got to the front gate, we realized we had no tickets. So we ran back to the hotel with our eyes peeeeeeeled looking for some paper tickets on the ground... no use. So we re-printed our tickets, ran back to Disneyland only to find out that those tickets had already be used!!!!! I was pissed. So the lady that took our tickets told us to wait there for someone to come help us. About 30 minutes later, she just tells us to walk 10 steps over to guest services. There, the kind gentelman accused us of trying to get friends in for free by re-printing our tickets twice. I was livid... I told him that we had the credit card we used to pay for the tickets WITH our ID but this nincanpoop said there was no possible way of tracking what tickets were perchased with what credit card. So, I said to him I says, so we are pretty much screwed and just lost $300?!?! Sure enough, all he had to say was, "yeah, pretty much". All of this just so happened to be on my 22nd birthday. Disneyland definantly was NOT the happiest place on earth that day. So, we decide to just go back to our hotel and sulk for a little bit. After a few phone calls to my entire family, we decied to just walk around since we had NOTHING else to do. As we were walking, we just so happened to pass a fine man mowing the lawn of a hotel. In doing such, a nice dirt chuck FLYS out of the lawn mower and hits me!!! RIGHT IN THE FACE!!! I wasn't even mad. Nate and I just laughed.... ANYWAYS....... later that day, our luggage came and broke on the way up the stairs... (the icing on the cake, I know...) the lady in our lobby ended up selling us tickets to Disneyland and we actually saved $30! so, after we got our luggage, we decided to change our almost 3 day old underwear and went to Cheesecake Factory for my birthday dinner....
We walked everywhere becuase everything was so close to our hotel.
DISNEYLAND!!!! We finally made it... and this was the first ride... Indian Jones... and guess who was the driver... ME!!!

Almost all the pictures we have are either Nate or I holding the camera taking pictures of ourselves... we took pictures on every ride, but since the situation was such, you can't tell which ride is which since it is pretty much just our faces in the pictures. But, we finally got someone to take our picture at the famous road thats not really a road.
Christmas Mickey and Minnie!
This is at the bottom of Tarzan's tree house.
M-I-C...see you real soon... K-E-Y...why? becuase we like you... M-O-U-S-E!!!!!!
It's a Small World. (About as creative as I get when it comes to editing pictures... a little blur on the edge)
MARRY POPPINS!!!!!!! We were exhausted at this point but once I saw who it was, I WAS SO EXCITED!!!
We went home after being there for 7 hours took a little nap-ski and came back for the fireworks.
Now, we are back in Provo... and it has be POURING snow!!!
We went to build a snowman with Kaitlyn and Lydia but we just ended up kicking the snow around at each other and making snow angels... Lydia left me in charge of dressing Kaitlyn for the snow and I didn't realize I had put her hat on backwards... that's why it looks so awesome...
I AM SO ACCIDENT PRONE!!!! So one day after getting out of the shower, I was putting on my lotion as normal and once I was done with my legs, I stood up right into the corner of the cabnet I had apparently left open.

I got a staple. Owen thinks I'm a complete sissy...

Next, I burnt my had on Lydia's oven pulling out the pizzas for Makenzies birthday party.

THEN on Sunday, I was walking to the car with Nate, in my high heels, in our ice rink of a parking lot... and sliped and got owned... I was ready to just go to church, but Nate thought it would be best to clean up the bloody mess. These are the awesome cupcakes Lydia and I made for the party...
Nate and I play in the snow!!!!
We built a snowman on the back of our car.

And thats it. That is our life.

hey... LOOK!!!

2008-11-23T20:03:00.000-08:00

Hey Look... AN UPDATE!!!!!

In August... Nate's sister got married in Logan...

We went to Houston to visit Nate's parents and we went to a museum!

Then we went to conference.
... And took pictures...
This is just us... being cute...
Then it was Halloween and we carved a pumpkin.
We make sugar cookies and decorate them.
THEN.........
We went to the ZOO!!!
It's a bear...
Nate is cute.
I'm pretty sure this was my first time to the zoo.... it was fun.
Then Nate found a dog.

That is what we have been up to since the last time I updated. I can't wait to go to Texas for Thanksgiving!!! We are putting our birthday and Christmas presents together and we are going to DISNEY LAND!!!! I can't remember the last time I went there. Then we are going to Mesa for Christmas!!! I love the holiday's!!!

We Are So Cute...

2008-08-18T14:50:00.000-07:00

So Nate and I have been married for almost 2 months now. Nuts? I KNOW!!! Time is FLYING!!! So, a few weekends ago Nate called me on his way home from school and told me he needed some help with the car and he needed me to come down and help him. So I went down to the street to go help him, but he wasn't there. So I came back into the apartment and he had tricked me and surprised me with these....
I have the cutest husband ever! So to begin our date night, we went to the temple and we were the witness couple. It was so awesome!

After our temple date, we drove to Sandy and ate at Texas Road House. I had never been there before... it was SOOOOOOOOOO good. They have such good, fluffy, soft, hot, buttery bread with this cinnamon butter... (my mouth is so watery right now just thinking about it!) The food we got was really good too. Then we went and saw The Mummy at this HUGE cinnaplex place. We had such a good time. I love that my husband takes me on dates.

So, after our date night, the next day we went on a hike to Stewart Falls. It was a really nice pretty hike. It was about 2 miles to the falls. The water was SO incredibly cold, but it was a lot of fun.

Hi... to those of you who really read my blog...

2008-07-21T10:48:00.001-07:00

Here's the update...

I'm married! The honey moon was awesome! we forgot our camera in the car at the airport so we bought a disposible camera when we got there... so we don't have too many pictures from the honeymoon... Anyways...We stated at the NICEST hotel ever. We went to Cabo and sated in the Riu Palace. Everything was all inclusive so we had lots of soft serve with sprinkles (for free) breakfast, lunch and dinner plus snacks AND room service! (that we only used twice). We spent the first two days just playing at the pool, laying around and having fun. The last full day we had there, we went snorkling at this cove were we jumped off the boat into water that was FULL of jelly fish... just little ones that didn't sting, but there were occasional stinging ones that we got stung by.... then we went to this place called "Lovers Beach" and it was SO beautiful! Then, after the snorkling adventure, we went on a "sunset cruse"... which actually tured out to be a booze cruse... all these old couples were drinking the night away, acting like fools. The people that we signed up with to go on this cruse told us it was going to be a romanic night, watching the sunset on the ocean.... and I guess we had a romantic time watching all the old people make fools of themselves.... but other then that, we had a great time.

We are back in Provo now, we have a cute little appartment...

This is us moving in... ...and our living room.

our cute kitchen...

This is our bedroom... that white dresser... was $12 from DI.... a very nice addition to our appartment if I do say so myself...

So, thats our appartment... I got a new job for those of you who knew my old job just closed out of the blue.... I work at T-Mobile. I'm the store manager. The owner works for APX and is in Flordia selling right now. So, it's me and his wife that work at the store. There is only one person working at a time, since the store is so small (it's a little hole in the wall) so I sit behind the desk, all alone, it's about 95 degress in the store, and wait for someone to come in so I can make some money . So far, I hate it. I have made maybe $100 in 30 hours... But hopefully, things will pick up.

This is us on 4th of July... we went up to Squwa peak and watched the stadium of fire fireworks from there. it was a lot of fun.... aren't we just so cute?!

This is a funny picture I thought I'd share... Nate took a picture of himself right in the middle of a sneeze...

soon to be....

2008-05-30T09:46:00.000-07:00

So it's been a while.... allow me to fill all of you in on whats going on right now....

Nate asked me to marry him.... I said yes.

We like to take jumping pictures.

We love each other.... so we are getting married...

I don't really do anything.... I go to work, my job is not one that I'm too fond of. I quit for a day, now I'm back doing something a little different, it still sucks though. I applied for a job at Bed Bath & Beyond. Haven't heard back.
Nate's parent's bought us a brand new Pontiac G6 for our wedding, it's soooooo nice! We drove it to California for Memorial day weekend. We had a good time together at the beach (all the pictures are on his computer otherwise I'd post some)
Nate has been super sick for the past month. He's getting his tonsils out on Wednesday....
We got our invitations, they should be getting sent out pretty soon... just waiting for mom to come and help....

whats this?

2007-12-09T10:06:00.001-08:00

Yes...a post!

sorry to those of you who actually look at my site.... but here's an update.

one more week of school! one week of testing. i decided to take the last few days of school off and come to arizona. this is just a man i saw at the airport i thought worthy enough to take a picture of...

so i got here... and i went straight to the orthodontist. and as i was sitting in the chair, waiting for someone to come look at me, i decided to look through my file... and this is what i found.... this has got to be the most hideous thing i have ever seen. i have very little picture of my childhood, and now i see why. mom was doing me a favor in helping me not remember how fugly i was. thanks mom!

We went to the dane cook concert which was a ton of fun.
he did a lot of old stuff that we had heard before but he did some new stuff that was pretty funny.

So over thanksgiving my friend brooke (on the left) came out and surprised me for the week. it was a ton of fun. owen came out for thanksgiving too. but his coming out wasn't a surprise... so while brooke and owen were here, the eliason's were here too. and me, owen, brooke, caitlin (in the middle) and tracie went sky diving. it was by far the coolest thing i've ever done in my life.

I'm pretty sure I had more fun in the jump suit than I did jumping out of the plane....

Next: HAPPY CHRISTMAS FROM HAWAII!

2007-10-08T21:10:00.000-07:00

Hey, look at this... an update.
School: taking lots and lots of tests. not really doing too well on them. I took 5 tests between thursday and monday. ask me if i spent all weekend studying? or if i spent more than 20 minutes studying for any of them.... the answer... no. who spends time studying? i mean mom's always taught me, you either know it or you dont. right?
Work: i do nothing. and get paid 7.75 to do it. 13 hours a week.
Play: I moved out of the A frame. i'm back with the parents. it's so lonely without roommates. i just got memory foam for my bed. the internet doesn't work in my room. I'm never home. my playing normally consists of sitting at someone else's house (who wants to hang out at an air conditioned house with parents?? but they are going out of town this weekend... ) normally it's with the same few people. nothing really too exciting ever happens... but it always turns out being a lot of fun. naturally.
Now: i'm at work and as i'm typing all this, i'm procrastinating a project and stuying for a huge test. dont' you guys wish you were still in college?! life is beautiful.

Hi Family ! Allow myself to update all of you who want to live vicariously through me. I went to Utah, Arizona and California for a little vacation away from Hawaii. Those of you who are interested in my love life have heard about it so I will not brag via blogspot to those that don't wish to hear about creepy booger faces.

I'm back in Hawaii, obviously. I don't live at home this semester, I'm in the A frame. Still have not bought any groceries woot! Owen was here for a little bit and it was so much fun having him here again. When cute little Oski got here, he was so pail and a bit chubby. After only a week he was tan again and had lost about 8 pounds. Anyways, we threw a killer 80's party, I'll put pictures up when I get a chance. Now school has started again, I have a class at 7 AM Health in marriage and pregnancy, I hear you have to get pregnant to pass... That's why I signed up... I'm at work now, in the library, being a consultant and I have admit I'm really happy with the song that is stuck in my head... Spider pig, Spider pig. Does whatever a Spider pig does. Can he swing from a web? No he can't, he's a pig. Look out! He's a Spider pig!

Recent Purchases: Rain boots.

lately, i've been really into stenciling. finding pictures, cutting them out and then spray painting them onto various articles of clothing. here are just a few of the ones my friends and i have done.

I did as Emily said, google "(your name) needs" and I found this. I thought it was very applicable.

Still no pictures...

2007-06-04T21:21:00.000-07:00

For those of you who were wondering how my lesson went in Relief Society, it went great. I pretty much just led a discussion on the six be's.

I took my computer to Comp USA about a week ago. It has the program I need to get pictures from my phone onto my computer. Comp USA has not called me back with my fixed computer. Therefore, I have no pictures. I'm not going to appologize for having no pictures up yet becuase I dont feel like it's necessary.

I waxed my armpits the other day. It's so nice. My armpits are so clean. I feel like after shaving, there is no hair, but it's still kinda dark becuase the hair is just cut, not plucked anyways my armpits look great, feel great, and I get a lot of attention beucase of their smoothness. Has anyone ever waxed their nose hairs? If not, I'm not going to reccomend it, but I'm not going to reccomend not doing it. I personally think it's fantastic. No boogers, smooth insides, and a lot more confidence. I'd probably reccomend it for hairy husbands, so nappy stragley hairs won't be a such an embarassment.

This weekend the Mini Olympics was held for all the little girls I teach gymnastics too. It was very cute. Now I have two weeks off, and I couldn't be happier! I love teaching gymanstics, but it gets to be quite a handful every week. I was at the beach all day Saturday it was so much fun. Me and a whole bunch of my friends went to Wiemea, the waves were pretty big, then I went surfing for a little bit, then went back to Wiemea, it was such a long fun day. I am telling you all this in hopes you all will be very jealous of my everyday life. I'm really looking forward to having the sisters and their kids come. I'm not going to lie, I'm kinda happy I don't live at home... (that takes me off the guarenteed to be there to babysit list).

In loving memory of Chad at Christmas time... Joy, Jesus... Peace.

Two pets I have: myself and myself. I’m on my own now.

Two things I did last night: snuck into someone’s back yard (this someone’s house is often vacant like it was last night) and sat in the Jacuzzi with my friend Ashley, and left a can of tuna in someone’s bedroom to rot.

Two things I ate today: bowl of Coco puffs and a bowl of ice cream with a brownie

Two people I just talked to last: some little girl said “hi stephanie” as I was walking into the house and I said hi back, and mom.

Two favorite beverages: Gatorade and water.

So go ahead copy and paste this and do your own....I would love to read yours!

Update

So I've decided to update the world with my life. I'm going to school, studying exercise and sports science. I have about a year and a half left, I'm hoping to graduate December 2008. I work as a lab consultant at the library, I work at the game room on campus, I teach gymnastics, I teach swimming lessons, and I teach violin lessons. My days normally consist of going to school, work and the beach. Nothing too spectacular or interesting happens here. I moved out of mom and dad's house a couple weeks ago. I live in a house called the A frame on the point. I have yet to go shopping for food so if I want to eat I go to mom and dad's house. I don't know if they know it, but I'm not ashamed to admit it. I dont have any kids to write cute or funny stories about. And I'm not sure if my days activities are worthy enough to blog. I'll just leave it at that for now.

My First Time.
