A Dog and a Truck

Here is Nate with his dog and his new truck. Every man's dream. Ok so the dog is a joke, but the truck isn't. We just picked this baby up yesterday. It is a Nissan Frontier with a crew cab, (for the baby of course, as Nate would justify) Nate says that now that he has a truck, he'll be able to buy all of our baby furniture and be able to pick it up and drive it home! How would we have ever been able to do that without him getting a truck? I just don't think it could have been possible to call someone and borrow a truck. Oh well, we really needed a second car anyways, and I really like the truck too.

At least Sophie had a good time. She loved the beach no matter how cold it was. She liked running up and down the beach with Nate, and she even chased a bird and found herself swimming back to shore. I don't think she knew how deep the water was.

Our trip to Galveston

A couple of weekends ago, we decided to go spend the weekend in Galveston which is an hour away from us. We thought we were going to spend the whole time lounging on the beach. When we woke up the next morning, it was freezing cold! So much for laying on the beach. We called up our friends Mike and Andrea who live there, and spent the day with them, inside unfortunatley but we still had a good time.

I can't keep a secret any longer!!!

Finally! I have been dying to tell everyone our big news. We finally were able to get pregnant!! After 2 long years of trying, it has finally happend. Thanks to some handy drugs, and thanks to me for driving up to Oklahoma City where I had to meet up with the other half of the ingredient to make a baby. (Thanks for making things harder Nate!) But it worked, so we are so happy!! We have waited until now obviously due to our past we wanted to make sure that this baby was going to stay around for us before we told everyone. And I am the worst secret keeper, so this was as long as I could go. I am 11 weeks now. I was feeling pretty sick for a few weeks, but I am feeling really good now, and getting back to normal. No more laying on the couch watching Maury Povich say "You ARE the father!" That gets a little boring after the millionth time. But that is pretty much all I could do. Anyways, this is another reason why I haven't updated the blog, because I wanted to post this, and there really wasn't anything else besides this. So now everyone won't think I'm so lame for not getting a job and staying home, this is the reason why! Nate is pretty excited about it as well of course. Sophie doesn't know yet, but I'm sure she's going to be pretty jealous when she isn't the only one around here getting attention. So anyways, I'm coming up to Utah next week and can't wait to see all you people!
