Texas thus far...

So, obviously we made it to Texas. It was a long 2 day drive; 14 hours one day and 16 hours the second day. It was a long, slow trip. Because we were pulling a trailer, plus the truck being completely packed as well, we could only average about 55-60 mph the entire way. Jared had an interview with Dr. Pepper the Wednesday we got to Texas. It went very well, they even called him back for the 3rd and final interview for today. He also thinks it went really well, but only time will tell and a phone call. We are very hopeful for this job and it would be great for our growing family, plus we have tons of people praying for us, hopefully this is where God wants us to be and he will grant our prayers. It is nice being back in Texas and much warmer weather.
As far as pregnancy is going, I am about 10 weeks now. I don't think I am showing all that much. I just look fat due to the fact that mom has changed my diet completely, I was drinking skim milk, and mom has put me on whole milk (so pretty much she is putting me on food with high fat), and I have to eat A TON just to get my constant companion of queeziness stay away. Other than that, I have been doing ok, no morning sickness yet, and hopefully not ever. More to come soon.

BABY!!!

So, on top of moving to Texas this weekend. We are officially having a baby this year! We had our first ultra-sound today and we were able to see our little monster. I think they got a way good pic of the monster. Don't worry, the dark spot in the head is it's brain, not a hole in the head. At least that is what they told me. It still hasn't hit yet, that I am going to be a parent this year. I've got some major adjusting to do. Jared, is of course, super excited, I'm tending to be the more nervous/freaking out one. I know it is way too early, but I'm hoping for a boy. But a girl will be just as loved. We are super excited.

We are MOVING!!!

So it is official. We are hoping to be moving to Texas by the end of this week hopefully. Jared just had a phone interview with Dr. Pepper/Snapple Co. in Plano, Texas and it sounded like it could go through, so we aren't going to be taking any chances on missing this opportunity. Super Excited!

Starting Out February

February already. Time is really going fairly fast, even though everyday seems to drag by. I'm starting out this new month with goals I would like to achieve. Instead of staying home all day, I am getting up and going to the gym for roughly about an hour 4-5 times a week. I wanna get healthy and stay healthy. I'm tired of having to start over after doing a good run of working out for several weeks. The BYU Idaho gym has been redone and is larger than ever. The facilities are top notch, with over $1 million of new equipment. Yeah, talk about over load. However they are becoming Nazi's if you ask me. You have to walk through one of those turning things like at Six Flags or a Subway, by providing your I-number. So anyone who is graduated or whatever cannot use the gym. Luckily I have a sister who is still a student.
Something else I would like to start is my new baby blanket cross stitch project. I have a baby girl blanket pretty much done, so I need to get working on a baby boy so I can have one of each. The one I would like to start working on is this one.
I think it is pretty much perfect for a little boy. Its my favorite. I would like to do another girl one, more girly perhaps, and give the other one to someone who wants it. But yeah, I enjoy doing these cross stitch blankets. They keep me entertained for a while.

Bored-ness

Wow, I can't believe just how boring life can be sometimes. Since losing my job and having only 1 car between both Jared and I, I tend to get the short end of the stick. My days now consist of sitting around at home watching TV, surfing the internet for anything and everything, and eating. Yeah, I know, super eventful. Especially today. Jared got called into a double shift today at work so therefore, I am home by myself ALL DAY! I could really use some friends, or Jared could not but stubborn and just move us to Texas, that would just bless everyone in the world, Jared just doesn't see it. I've started working out in the mornings, but even then that only takes up about an hour out of my day and then Im stuck being bored again. Maybe I should get that second baby blanket and start cross-stitching that. That could keep me busy for a while.
Well, hopefully life will get more interesting as the days drag slowly by. That is if Im not getting punished for some reason.
