Happy Fishin and 4th!!!

We went to Brandon's family cabin in Colorado to celebrate the 4th of July with some good old fishing...it was such a blast! I even caught a fish and Brandon said he felt like a "proud parent" I guess I did kinda squil like an excited little girl!

Farewell Mariah!!!

And a final farewell...saying goodbye to Mariah brings us to saying goodbye to summer fun and memories. This family has been through thick and thin with this boat. Good Old Mariah has served us well but now it is time to say farewell. "goodbye Mariah, it's been nice, hope you find your paradise" You will be missed by many!

Happy Birthday Heather!!!

Heather Marie was born October 13th 1984.

She is just one of the cutest girls I know...and I have to give credit to my cute 1997 "blue star spaghetti-strap" shirt for our friendship. If it were not for that shirt, we might never be where we are today. Heather and I have been through a lot together, from our long adventure trek where we were forced to pee in some poor strangers backyard with a poor strange dog watching, to making many terribly embarrassing music videos, to writing many terribly embarrassing songs, to sharing a window in the "Yellow Submarine". Heather...you are the best friend a girl could ask for. I hope you have the most amazing birthday month ever!!!

Love ya cute girl :)

Pregnancy Update!!!

I am at work right now and well...not really working haha!!! So I decided I would update the blog a bit. Sorry I don't have pictures right now but I will work on that (up and coming...pictures!)
So many of you have been asking about the pregnancy and all the up dates, so here ya go:
- I am not feeling sick, I have not even thrown up once (crazy huh?)
- I do not have any particular food cravings besides anything and everything haha I'm hungry like every 3 hours (but that's not much different than before)
- Even though it does not look like I have a baby belly to everyone else...I do...I swear I can see it, it gets bigger everyday.
- I have gained around 6LBS.
- I pee just as much as I eat and more. I'm up at least 3 times during the night, so annoying!
- I didn't have any "mothers intuition" as to what this little fetus was, but Brandon got his wish for a boy!
- We don't have a name picked out, and we are really not keeping any secrets about some great amazing name we don't want to tell anyone. Although, Dillyn did give this baby a nickname even before I was pregnant, she has always said that I have to name my first baby "Ducky", so that is what we call him..."Baby Ducky" and I love it!
- I'm trying to keep up with working out even though it is a little uncomfortable.
- Best of all, we have heard the little heartbeat a few times and seen the little man in action...he moves all the time (I swear he is already ADHD)
- People who have felt the baby move: Me, Brandon, Mother Branch, Tanya (I don't think the baby likes Jacque very much, because every time she tries to feel him, he stops moving...sorry Jacq) Lyndee, Ashley
- The health of the baby checks out to be great at this point (looks healthy from the ultrasound and all my urine and blood tests have come back great)
- Just started experiencing a bit of back pain in the past few days, but besides that...I seriously love being pregnant and experiencing this amazing miracle growing inside my belly!!!

It's a...

Ok...for all of you who do not know the great news yet. Brandon and I are having a little baby BOY and we couldn't be happier! Unless it was a girl haha - jk - I think Brandon almost passed out he was so happy when he heard the Doc say that she was seeing little "boy parts" in the ultrasound. Brandon really wanted a boy first so that he could teach him the ways of the man world and all the fun things that come along with being a boy. Although, he did say the other day that he got sad for a second because we were not having a little girl haha it was so cute, but I think he got over it after that second was over. Well we are super stoked and can't but can wait another 5 months for this little guy to make his appearance!
