It Seems Like Yesterday

That Austin and I were walking out of the temple, as the new Mr. and Mrs. Anderson.  Its crazy to think that its been two years today that I married my best friend.

  I cannot wait to see what the many, many more years bring to us! I love you Austin :)

Baby Update

Austin and I made the big announcements to all our friends that we are expecting a little one.  We were so thrilled to finally let secret out to everyone. 

I am just about 12 weeks along--which means our baby is the size of a plum!

(According to the Bump.com) 

In all honesty, we still can't believe its happening. 

It doesn't feel real.  I haven't been sick that much and I feel the same other than my hip turning out. The only thing that has really changed is that I sleep all the time.  Which is weird for me because I am constnatly on the go and a busy body.  

As for my food,  I am also obssessed with jalepenos, lime slushes and baked potatoes.

I am finally able to get back into the gym and workout again. 

I have been dying for the last 6 weeks to get in there! Its so relaxing for me.

We got to hear the baby's heart beat and it was just surreal to hear the heart beat that fast. And the fact that its coming from inside of me. The doctor did say that it was a really fast heart beat--a girl maybe?!?!  (Austin swears he only makes boys)

Other than that, everything is looking great and right on track.

BIG NEWS

Graduation for the J Man!

I just have to take a moment to brag about my little brother, Josh.  He is the brother I like the most and get a long with the best. (Sorry Chris!)  Him and Austin get along great!  They are pretty  buddy-buddy at all family gatherings.  So naturally, that makes him like me too.

Josh graduated on Friday at the BYU Marriott center.  It blows my mind he is going to college at LDS Business College this Fall and next Summer he will be getting ready to go teach the world the gospel!  Did I  mention he graduated with silver cords and also lettered in academics for English?  This kid is brilliant beyond belief.  I am so proud of him and the person he has become.  I love that he won't let anyone affect his decisions and beliefs.  He wants to find out on his own and develop his own experiences.

There is my bragging moment, I could go on and on, but I figured everyone is getting bored.  Josh, we just so super proud to call you our brother.  You have an amazing future ahead of you!  We love you!

Our Life As of Lately

I'll be honest.  Life in the Anderson home has been pretty boring for the last few weeks.  We eat, sleep, go to school, work, and the gym and repeat every day.

We do get a nice long walk or hike in every few nights. ( A long walk to me is like 3+ miles by the way)  But other then that, our days are boring in the summer time.  We spend spare time studying and doing papers since school is at twice the speed it would normally be.  With that being said, we are going to be completely burned out by the end of the semester.  Which is why we are going here for an entire week at the
end of the semester:

This is here is our favorite place to go to in the entire world.  We thought about touring Europe or going to the Caribbean but nothing matched how much we love this place. 

This is the family cabin in Smith & Morehouse up by Oakley, Utah. 
Its quiet, gorgeous and a plus--no cell service!  Cut off from reality for a week is
what we live for.   I know it seems odd but we just love flying under the radar. It will be incredible!  We are both really looking forward to watching movies, sleeping in, going on hikes, fishing, and eating yummy food!  It will be incredible!

20th Birthday Re-Cap & Mother's Day

It's offical, I am no longer a teenage wife.  Austin oved to joke that he was raising me, when really, I was raising him.  We celebrated my birthday a day before, by going to Olive Garden and filling up our stomachs with delicous grub!  ( They have a great gluten free pasta that I love)  After that, we stopped by my parents so I could eat a gluten free cupcake in lou of my birthday.  Nothing is better then a Strawberry Lemonade cupcake from Cupcake Chic in Orem. 

On my offical birthday, we celebrated Mother's Day with both side and had dessert as part of my birthday.  We gave Austin's Mom a digital camera and my Mom a food processor. 

They both LOVED their gifts, which makes it all worth it! 

We did the Williamson Family gathering out in Eagle Mountain with my entire Dad's side of the family.  Where we ate delicous Carne Esada, fresh fruit , sang happy birthday and made an exciting announcment to everyone there. Overall, it was a great birhtday!   Thank you everyone for sharing my birthday with me!  I wouldn't have wanted it anyother way.

All I Want...

for my birthday is a gluten-free coconut cake.

  That's all.  I promise.
