Coming soon to a city near you.....

It's true! I finally have a good reason for not blogging for so long!! Baby Peine is on its way! And we couldn't be happier. Yesterday we got to see "it" moving all around. Yesterday was probably one of the greatest days ever!


Some fun facts so far:

  • I am due August 6th
  • We told our families on Christmas Eve- see photo of Jordan's family!
  • I have been SO sick! At times I wondered how women EVER have more than one pregnancy!
  • For the past 4-5 weeks I have lived off of Ensure (Awesome), white bread, and quesadillas! I HATE IT ALL NOW!
  • My doctor put me on Zofran and it changed my life!
  • I finally had some funeral potatoes today and HAD to go back for seconds (I was at a funeral- I asked my MIL if she would judge me..then I RAN back to the food table)!
  • I can't stand the thought or sight of Onions, tomato's or garlic
  • Sweets.....well I have pretty much cut those out of my life! (Not a bad thing)
  • Jordan is the BEST husband EVER! He has probably gone to the store for me 1,000,000+ times :)
  • I am SO grateful that my sister Hillary has been living with us....she has been a HUGE help
  • We are 90% sure that we are NOT going to find out the sex of the baby
  • My sister Stefanie is only 8 weeks ahead of me! I can't wait for Baby Peine to meet its cousins!!
  • I just got called to be the Young Women's President in my ward. I totally tried to get out of it by playing the baby/sick card. It DID NOT WORK!! I love the girls!
  • Life couldn't be any sweeter!

I love this picture...you can tell who got it....Hillary & Alina knew....Kay got it....my MIL was in shock...Hillary had to tell her that this news is true!!!

four

(that was then)
Everyone always told us it (marriage) just gets better. Well they aren't kidding! Thanks to four fun adventurous years baby! I love you! I can't wait to see what the next four brings us! To celebrate we first we went to dinner, then up to Snowbird for the night. We hung out at Oktoberfest, went in the hot tub, watched Lost, went to Sunday brunch, rode the tram up to the top of the mountain & rode the chair lift back down. I couldn't have asked for a better weekend or a better husband! I got lucky!
(this is now)
Not that I am a marriage expert by any means, but the one thing that I always tell my friends who are getting married is to never stop having fun together!! Don't let life's everyday little things get in the way! Jordan and I constantly have fun & we love it!!

Summer Slipped By

Summer slipped by us, but all is well. So much to update and not sure where to start.
We have no complaints (wants, but no complaints)! Life is great!
We went to the Greek Festival w/good friends this weekend. We always look forward to the yummy food.
We love the fall & can't wait to go up to Logan in a couple of weeks for the BYU/USU game and see all the beautiful colors in the canyon.
Our chickens are giving us eggs (finally), its like Christmas every day.
Joe gave us a rocking tour around Denver over Labor day. Pictures coming soon.
We've lived in our house for a year already! Boy how times flies when you're having fun.
We are blessed.

Grandma Durnford



(may 2010)

My sweet Grandma was reunited with my grandpa & her family yesterday morning. I will miss her, but am also so happy for her. I can't help but think that she is having a sweet reunion with those that have gone before her. I can just see my Grandpa already joking with her!


She was kind, cute, sassy (she has RED hair), thoughtful, caring, loving, a great cook, a great dresser & could party.


For years Grandma has been giving us things to remember her by, those things mean more to me today than they did yesterday. I am so grateful for everything she did for me. I will never forget any of them.


Just a few months ago she was able to come to our home for Thanksgiving & out of the blue she told me she was going to go and buy designer jeans...how cool is that?! I am SO grateful she was able to spend her last Thanksgiving in my home.


No matter what we were having for dinner when she would come over for my birthday Grandma would make me my favorite salad...Macaroni salad. She said that you can only use Best Food's mayo...that's why it is so good & that it is always made with love!


I love that we have another Angel watching over us.


We love you Grandma....until we meet again
